Talk
Jason Middlebrook

MFA Fine Arts presents a talk by Jason Middlebrook.
Middlebrook was born in 1966 in Michigan and now lives and works in Hudson, New York. His work uses natural materials and the language of abstraction to create a tension between something organic and something man-made. Middlebrook has mounted solo exhibitions at a number of institutions, including the New Museum (New York), the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art, the Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum (Connecticut) and the Santa Monica Museum of Art. He has participated in group shows at the Whitney Museum of American Art (New York), the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and the Contemporary Arts Museum Houston. Last year he unveiled a major outdoor sculpture commission at the Albright-Knox Art Gallery (Buffalo). Middlebrook’s work is included in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art (New York), the Institute of Contemporary Art/Boston, the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago and the Princeton University Art Museum, among others.
*Please note that this MFA Fine Arts lecture will replace the talk by Omar Lopez-Chahoud (previously scheduled for Tuesday, March 28) which was cancelled.
