Now on view in Building 6: The Robert W. Wilson Building, "Technologies of Relation."
Responding to the rapidly advancing technologies that are shaping our daily lives and social fabric, the artists in Technologies of Relation examine how we relate to each other, to our devices, and to our future.
These creators see the complexity of our relationships to the digital, avoiding the binary views that frame technology as good or bad, as tool or monster — offering visions of a technological future that is inclusive and liberatory.

Responding to the rapidly advancing technologies that are shaping our daily lives and social fabric, the artists in "Technologies of Relation" examine how we relate to each other, to our devices, and to our future.
Join us on February 21 for the "Technologies of Relation" Artist Discussion where exhibiting artists will discuss the current state of technology, considering how we can rethink our relationships to our devices, to computing, and to artificial intelligence, while bringing increased ethics and agency into the digital landscape. Then, join us in the exhibition for the Member & Artist Reception afterward.
Tickets are available at the link in our bio.

How can artists help us understand the interdependence between nature and humanity?
Gardening has the ability to reframe choice
and power, as it helps us understand what it means to be with others in difference, to know “unknowing”, and to yield humanity’s desire for control to the ecological network of which we are all a part.
Join us on March 13–14 for “Contemporary Nature: Tending the Garden” — two days of conversations and presentations with students, scientists, philosophers, land stewards, and artists whose work explores these prescient questions.

Herb Alpert Award-winner Robin Frohardt — whose immersive, multimedia experience “The Plastic Bag Store” captivated audiences at MASS MoCA in 2024 — returns on February 20 for a preview of "Shopping Center of the Universe," a theatrical work of speculative nonfiction.
This new work in development, grounded in reality yet deeply reflective, offers a poetic meditation on our relationship with the natural world. Blending puppetry, prose, original music, and intricate handmade sets, Frohardt gives shape to the cultural and personal curiosity she experienced growing up surrounded by big-box stores — reframing the parking lot as part of the ecosystem rather than separate from it.

Looking for plans for you and your "Funny Valentine"? MASS MoCA has you covered, with a presentation of Jordan Klepper`s standup/storytelling/PowerPoint show "Suffering Fools" taking to the Hunter Center Stage on February 14!
Throughout the show, Klepper shares personal stories about his time on the road, including interactions with politicians, entertainment industry experiences, and encounters with all kinds of characters. Combining humor and candor, the show offers commentary on contemporary society and “our collective idiocies" with a rare mix of bemused incredulity and genuine empathy.

Created in the aftermath of the 2007 MacArthur Park May Day riots in Los Angeles, Vincent Valdez’s “Nothing To See Here, Keep on Movin’!” is both a response to a specific event and a broader reckoning.
At the center, a screaming police officer on horseback commands the viewer to look away, echoing the gesture of the familiar Uncle Sam “I WANT YOU” illustration. Rendered from extensive research, field photographs, and firsthand observation, this work captures the unsettling detail of riot gear branded with corporate logos — quietly signaling the merger of state power and corporate influence.
Years later, this work reads as more than documentation; as a premonition.
“Vincent Valdez: Just a Dream...” is on view through April 5. Plan your visit to experience this thought-provoking exhibition in its final weeks.
