MASS MoCA and @camhouston are pleased to present Vincent Valdez: “Just a Dream…”, the artist’s first museum survey, including previously unexhibited and new bodies of work.
Spanning over two decades of his work, from early career drawings to recent monumental portraits, “Just a Dream…” cements Valdez as one of the most important American painters working today — imaging his country and its people, politics, pride, and foibles.
The first iteration of the exhibition is currently on view at @camhouston through March 23 before opening at MASS MoCA on Saturday, May 24. Visit the link in our bio to learn more.

Can’t wait to see “The Center Will Not Hold” this Saturday, February 8?
To tide you over, check out this previous performance of “Odeon” (2018) choreographed by @ephratasheriedance — the urban dance theater company dedicated to a new movement language combining the rawness of underground styles with a contemporary aesthetic.
Co-presented with @jacobspillow , the work-in-progress showing of “The Center Will Not Hold” was born from the short duet “a little room” by @ephratasherie and @mashdeez and showcases 11 powerful performers paired with live percussion by John Angeles.

We`re starting off February with two new exhibitions — both are now on view in Building 4!
Co-organized with the Williams College Museum of Art, Ohan Breiding’s "Belly of a Glacier" features an experimental documentary film and a photographic installation that connect acts of mourning to ongoing practices of care that strive to preserve ice — a material that contains both remnants of the past and the conditions of a future world.
In "Dirty & Disorderly: Contemporary Artists on Disgust", Anna Ting Möller, New Red Order, and Nguyễn Duy Mạnh use the aesthetics of disgust to understand the social construction of putrid and squalid things.
Plan your visit today to see these thought-provoking exhibitions!

In January 2020, New York-based interdisciplinary performing artist Eiko Otake arrived in Beijing to visit Wen Hui, a Chinese choreographer and filmmaker. Eight years apart, Eiko grew up in postwar Japan and Wen during the Cultural Revolution. They had planned to visit each other for a month to converse and collaborate, but the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic abruptly cut off Eiko’s visit and made Wen’s visit to the USA impossible. Nevertheless, their work together continued.
On February 1, witness the moving result of this collaboration, the film No Rule is Our Rule, in MASS MoCA`s Club B10! Link to tickets in our bio.

We’re remembering the legacy of visionary director David Lynch today with a look back at “Keys Open Doors: The Hidden Life of Laura Palmer,” commissioned by the David Lynch Foundation and shown at MASS MoCA.
The night before Halloween in 2015, hundreds of costumed Lynch fans filled the Hunter Center, making it feel less like North Adams, Massachusetts and more like Twin Peaks, Washington for a night.
The crowd gathered not just to celebrate their love of “Twin Peaks,” but to watch a collage of newly-edited footage of Laura Palmer’s final days, footage that contained previously unreleased clues to solving the murder at the center of the show.
Over a live score performed by electronic duo A Place Both Wonderful and Strange, viewers travelled to the Black Lodge, the Great Northern Hotel, and Double R Diner to attempt to get to the bottom of the mystery of what truly happened to Laura Palmer.
We feel lucky to have showcased Lynch’s work and are proud to be a part of his legacy.
