Join us on Thursday evening to celebrate our latest special exhibition De los Andes al Caribe: El arte americano desde el imperio español/From the Andes to the Caribbean: American Art from the Spanish Empire, on view through July 30, 2023. To start the night, enjoy a performance by the Boston Children’s Chorus in the Calderwood Courtyard. The group harnesses the power of music to connect the city of Boston’s diverse communities, cultivate empathy, and inspire social inquiry. The concert will include various pieces, some of which are inspired by the exhibition. Then head downstairs to Menschel Hall to hear Rosario I. Granados, associate curator of art of the Spanish Americas at the Blanton Museum of Art, deliver her lecture “Artifice and Invention: Displaying Art of the Spanish Americas.” Granados will take a deep dive into the complex histories of colonialism in the Americas.
