Join MA-NMWA for a tour of June Leaf: Shooting form the Heart, a major exhibition devoted to the artist June Leaf (1929–2024), whose enigmatic, beguiling, and often irreverent work is both endlessly experimental and uncategorizable. Drawing from the artist’s vast archive along with loans from select private and institutional collections, June Leaf: Shooting from the Heart will consider the breadth of Leaf’s 75-year career. Arranged thematically, it will be the most comprehensive exhibition of the artist’s work in more than three decades. Leaf’s enchanting and provocative sculptures, both kinetic and stationary, paintings, and works on paper will be intermingled and placed in dynamic conversations across media, revealing the artist’s sustained engagement with such motifs and themes as theater and performance, the human drama, dance, gender, motion, urban life, mythology, and interpersonal relationships.
Join us at 12:30pm, before the tour, for a self-treat lunch in Andover at LaRosa's Cafe and Bar, 7 Barnard Street, Andover, MA. https://www.larosasofandover.com/
