SUMMARY:Jason Fiering: Turned Down - Public Gallery Hours
DESCRIPTION:Public gallery hours for Jason Fiering: Turned Down \nFree \nAbout this exhibition: \nThese precise\, minimalist assemblies offer multiple interpretations of the bed\, a site associated with rest\, refuge\, intimacy\, illness\, and violence alike. Fiering reflects the ambiguities of that site in the constructions themselves. The motif of a single fold\, the “turn down\,” bends the picture plane and emphasizes the ambiguities of front and back\, image and object\, and painting and sculpture. Fiering’s meticulous construction\, uncompromising hard edges\, and mathematical proportions invite us to consider a familiar form anew\, and challenge our desires for security and certainty. \nIn 2021\, Jason Fiering was named ArtsWorcester’s Present Tense Prize Winner. This prize recognizes an artist whose work exemplifies new practices\, artistic risk-taking\, and excellence in execution. Prize winners are rewarded with a solo exhibition and a $1\,000 honorarium. \n  \nThe Present Tense Prize is generously supported by Marlene and David Persky and the Artist Prize Fund. \nArtsWorcester exhibits in the Davis Art Gallery take place courtesy of Davis Publications. \n  \nAbout the artist: \nJason Fiering is a painter working in Boston and New Bedford\, Massachusetts. His artwork encompasses themes of visual perception and introspection. Among his career highlights are a commission for the city of Graz\, Austria\, solo shows at Artspace New Haven\, the Chazan Gallery in Providence\, and the Solo Show Award from Boston’s Bromfield Gallery.  He has been an artist in residence at Ox-Bow in Michigan\, I-Park in Connecticut\, and Arts Letters and Numbers in New York. He has exhibited in numerous group shows regionally. Fiering earned a Master’s Degree in physics and continues a parallel career as a research scientist in medical equipment.

SUMMARY:Material Matters - Public Gallery Hours
DESCRIPTION:Public gallery hours for Material Matters: A Members Exhibition in partnership with the Fitchburg Art Museum \nFree \nAbout this exhibition: \nFor the last decade\, ArtsWorcester and the Fitchburg Art Museum (FAM) have partnered on an annual “Call and Response” exhibition\, an idea drawn from democratic and musical traditions in African and African Diaspora cultures. FAM begins with the call: a loan of ten artworks from their permanent collection\, all on a single theme. The first "Call and Response" loan featured ten pieces from FAM’s extensive African collection\, which was\, at the time\, primarily traditional crafts and ritual objects. Ten years later\, FAM now holds a rich array of contemporary African and Diasporic artists. The 2022 loan features a range of subject matter and media\, reflecting the capacity and diversity of different materials within African art. \nArtsWorcester artist members were invited to respond to one or more of these pieces for Material Matters\, and examine the role materiality plays in their creations. The resulting exhibition features work by seventy-six artists\, whose works encompass new media\, traditional forms\, and fine craft. FAM's curatorial staff will select ten works from Material Matters to be exhibited at the Museum alongside the 2022 loan. Selections will be announced in person at the reception and electronically\, and will go on view at the Fitchburg Art Museum later this year. To date\, seventy-seven individual artists have received this honor. \nTen percent of art sales from Material Matters will be donated to African Community Education (ACE). These funds and any direct donations made to ACE as part of this exhibition will be directed to the ACE Post-Secondary Success Fund. The Post-Secondary Success Fund provides direct financial support to ACE students graduating high school each year. Funds will be evenly and directly distributed to each graduate who will work with ACE’s Post-Secondary Success Liaison to use the funds in a way that best helps them achieve success upon graduation. \n  \nBeginning Saturday\, March 19\, 2022: For those with proof of vaccination\, masks are encouraged and appreciated. For those without proof of vaccination\, masks remain mandatory. These policies are subject to change\, based on current public health data and metrics. \nParking is available at the Worcester Public Library (McGrath) Lot\, Federal Plaza Garage\, Worcester Common Garage\, and Pearl-Elm Garage. Metered street parking is also available.

SUMMARY:Master Series lecture: "Us Them We | Race Ethnicity Identity"
DESCRIPTION:The Worcester Art Museum's current exhibition\, Us Them We | Race Ethnicity Identity\, considers the ways that artists from the last forty years accentuate concepts like race and ethnicity through four formal devices: Text\, Juxtaposition\, Seriality and Pattern.

After the lecture\, Brown will be joined in the galleries by co-curator Nancy Burns for a tour of the exhibition. \nThis Master Series event will be held on-site in WAM's conference room\, with an option to view virtually via Zoom.
