NORTH ADAMS, MASS
.-The Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art is presenting Glenn Kaino: In The Light of a Shadow from April 3, 2021 through September 4, 2022. Curated by Denise Markonish, the show takes over MASS MoCAs signature Building 5 galleries, with a series of immersive installations that create a sense of wonder and hope while issuing an urgent call to action.
In the Light of a Shadow is inspired by the connection between protests across the globe, specifically those in response to the tragic events known as Bloody Sunday from Selma, Alabama and Derry, Northern Ireland. On March 7, 1965, in Selma, Alabama, John Lewis and Hosea Williams led 600 protestors in a march over the Edmund Pettus Bridge in a nonviolent action intended to spotlight civil rights violations, while also demanding voting rights.
