Beginning in Spring 2019, MOCA will dedicate its downtown locations to multiple exhibitions celebrating the museum’s 40th anniversary and its permanent collection. Each location will feature special exhibitions highlighting different themes and stories found within the institution’s permanent collection of more than 7,000 objects. As part of this celebration, MOCA will debut a new ongoing series of exhibitions titled Open House.

MOCA will begin this new exhibition series with Open House: Elliott HundleyOn April 25, multimedia artist Elliott Hundley will lead a walkthrough of his exhibition. The show is an exploration of the architecture and origins of collage, and how the visual and material logic of this format has informed artists in MOCA’s collection, as well as Hundley’s own practice.
