This program takes place at the ICA Watershed
Explore the ICA Archives from the 1940s with Curatorial Assistant Max Gruber. During the ’40s, the ICA sparked controversy in the city by changing its name from the Boston Museum of Modern Art. The museum also exhibited iconic artworks from across the globe including Pablo Picasso’s Guernica, as well as paintings by Diego Rivera and the Mexican muralists.
This summer, the ICA Watershed is temporarily housing the ICA’s expansive archives which span the 90-year history of the museum. Join members of the ICA’s curatorial staff as they highlight some of their favorite things about the ICA and its history.
Live Spanish translation will be offered.
This project is supported by the Barr Foundation and Judi Kaufman and Arthur Rubin.
