1692: Salem Witch Trials | Salem
The Salem Witch Trials are a defining example of intolerance and injustice in American history. This extraordinary series of events between June 1692 and March 1693 led to the deaths of 25 innocent women, men and children who were wrongfully convicted of crimes. More than 300 years later, the personal tragedies and grievous wrongs that occurred still provoke us to reflect and reckon with the experiences of those involved. Learn the true story of this tragedy as told through the voices and with the possessions of those directly involved.
This ongoing installation tells this story through court documents and authentic historic objects presented as tangible fragments directly tied to people in Salem and nearby communities in the late 17th century. A handwritten petition, a carved loom, a walking stick — each illuminates an aspect of individuals who lived through Salem’s witch trials and serves as a reminder of the real people impacted by these harrowing events.
The Salem Witch Trials 1692 is organized by the Peabody Essex Museum. This exhibition is made possible by Carolyn and Peter S. Lynch and The Lynch Foundation. We thank James B. and Mary Lou Hawkes, Chip and Susan Robie, and Timothy T. Hilton as supporters of the Exhibition Innovation Fund. We also recognize the generosity of the East India Marine Associates of the Peabody Essex Museum.
AI: Mind the Gap | MIT Museum
The irony of artificial intelligence is that it inspires new perspectives on human intelligence.From AI in the home to robots in the workplace, the presence of AI all around us compels us to question its potential and recognize the risks. What has become clear is that the more we advance AI technology and consider machine ability versus human ability, the more we need to mind the gap.Join us in shining light on the tremendous promise, unforeseen impacts, and everyday misconceptions of AI in this riveting, interactive exhibition.
Rituals for Remembering: María Magdalena Campos-Pons and Ana Mendieta | Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
This exhibition brings together works from the MFA’s collection by María Magdalena Campos-Pons (b. 1959) and Ana Mendieta (1948–1985) in the first focused look at these influential artists side by side. Though the two never met, their practices share a reckoning with displacement and exile from their homes in Cuba, a deep reverence for the land, and a transformative use of natural elements like water, earth, and fire. For both artists, memory, ritual, and spirituality animate their artworks across photography, film, video, drawing, sculpture, installation, and performance.
The Banner Project: Mark Thomas Gibson | Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
Mark Thomas Gibson (born 1980) describes himself as an "American history painter," drawing inspiration from sources as diverse as comic books, Renaissance painting, and late 19th-century editorial cartoons. His "Banner Project" is the largest expansion yet of his "Town Crier" series, which draws on the pre-modern tradition of collective speaking, when town criers publicly announced laws and news.
The Bold and the Beautiful：16th-Century Prints and Drawings from the Myron Miller Collection | Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
Artistic invention and adventurous experimentation characterized the art of Europe in the 16th and early 17th centuries. Fueled by the rediscovery of ancient Roman sculpture, and by a drive to recapture and compete with its grace, balance, and energy, artists experimented boldly with style and composition. Turning to the inherent drama of the human body as a source of inspiration, they pushed the limits of traditional art in every way. Their innovations spread rapidly, carried by the thousands of prints that introduced audiences all over Europe to the most avant-garde movements in art.
Portia Zvavahera: Hidden Battles / Hondo dzakavanzika | Institute of Contemporary Art
Portia Zvavahera (b. 1985 in Harare, Zimbabwe) draws from her dreams to create layered paintings that evoke moments of transition and transcendence. For the artist, the act of painting is akin to an act of worship. Across her work, Zvavahera engages deeply with the African Pentecostal and Indigenous Shona traditions in which she was raised, illuminating the centrality of dreams, ancestors, and revelation to both belief systems. The artist merges painting and printmaking techniques to conjure worlds glimpsed in her dreams, where figures commune with spirits, and protective comforts and nightmares collide in stirring unions. Culling from an array of sources ranging from the angels and demons of medieval European devotional art to the vibrant patterns of Zimbabwean textile designs, Zvavahera constructs what the art historian Tamar Garb has described as “a unique and porous pictorial world.” For the ICA, her first solo museum exhibition in the U.S., Zvavahera is presenting a selection of recent paintings centered on the theme of animals, considering how they populate her work as well as the collective imagination.
Martin Puryear: Nexus | Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
For more than half a century, preeminent American sculptor Martin Puryear (b. 1941) has captivated the public with works of beauty, elaborate craftsmanship, and sophisticated sources of inspiration—from global cultures, social history, and the natural world.
Faces in the Crowd: Street Photography | Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
The ubiquity of camera phones today has very much made all the world a stage. In the modern city, photographers are now less concerned with surreptitiously capturing an image and much more likely to collaborate with their subjects in the street. Drawn to photography’s narrative potential, many employ the camera as a tool of transformation, taking everyday pictures from the ordinary to the strangely beautiful or even ominous.
Of Light and Air: Winslow Homer in Watercolor | Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
American artist Winslow Homer (1836–1910) transformed the medium of watercolor through his relentless spirit of experimentation. His luminous views transport viewers to the rugged Maine coast, the Adirondack Mountains, seaside England, sun-drenched Caribbean waters, and beyond. The MFA houses the largest collection of Homer’s watercolors in the world, though the works’ fragility and sensitivity to light means they have not been displayed together in nearly half a century.
One Hundred Stitches, One Hundred Villages：The Beauty of Patchwork from Rural China | Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
In rural Chinese villages today, women are creating dynamic patchwork textiles, as their mothers and grandmothers did before them. This art form, which evolved from ancient Buddhist and Daoist customs of monks dressing in patched rags to project a sense of humility, is rooted in practicality, with the fabrics serving as bed and window covers, door curtains, and children’s clothing. The vibrant abstract compositions demonstrate creativity and fine artistic sensibilities that flourish far beyond the borders of established Chinese art canons.
