Excerpt<\/h4>

Summer may have been for detours, but fall welcomes us back into the action with new thresholds a little bit closer to home. Across New England, museums and university galleries are staging encounters with shifting histories and unfamiliar worlds: textiles that expose colonial entanglements, portraits that fracture and reassemble, archives broken open and reclaimed. Roxbury-born Tourmaline returns to Boston with her first institutional show, Fred Wilson fills the Rose Art Museum with abundance, and one hundred years of contemporary Indigenous art will be on view at the ICA \/ Boston. Together, these fourteen shows mark the season\u2019s most compelling\u2014and unmissable\u2014crossings.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Ni de Aqu\u00ed, Ni de All\u00e1<\/em> (Not From Here, Not From There)<\/a> <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

At Boston University\u2019s Stone Gallery, Ni de Aqu\u00ed, Ni de All\u00e1<\/em> is an exhibition that is immersive, bright, layered, and fully alive. Victor \u201cMarka27\u201d Qui\u00f1onez<\/strong> blends graffiti, hip-hop, Chicanx aesthetics, and pop culture in ways that feel both muralistic and intimate, but also a bit rebellious. There are works whose graffiti lines spill out past the canvas boundaries and onto the white walls of the gallery. The I.C.E cream truck hits with humor and urgency, while the pop-up bot\u00e1nica quietly holds memory and ritual in candles, flowers, and devotional objects. The work makes presence and displacement tangible, celebrating resilience and identity in ways that are immediate, messy, and unforgettable, without ever feeling like it\u2019s trying too hard. It\u2019s cheeky but not rushed, and it\u2019s this level of care that Marka27 clearly infuses into his work that shines the brightest. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
