"Tomashi Jackson: Across the Universe" at the Tufts University Art Galleries

Cambridge-based painter Tomashi Jackson is featured in a solo exhibition at the Tufts University Art Galleries. Entitled "Tomashi Jackson: Across the Universe," it is the first exhibition to present the evolution of her work over the past decade. Jackson’s paintings fuse historical research with artistic strategies of color and layering, illuminating often unacknowledged patterns of activism, resistance, oppression, and societal advances. 

Jackson's exhibition has received considerable acclaim and media attention. She was profiled in a recent Boston Globe piece; her TUAG exhibition was included in a Boston Globe article listing current art shows raising important questions ahead of the presidential election; her exibition was featured in an ArtForum Critic's Pick article; Boston Globe Critic Cate McQuaid wrote an extended review of her exhibition, calling her paintings "dizzying and deep;" and Jackson's exibition was included in a Boston Globe "Things to do in Boston this Weekend" list. In October, the Boston Globe published a lengthy article on the exhibition entitled "Tomashi Jackson speaks truth to painful history in ‘Across the Universe’ at Tufts Art Galleries."

“Tomashi Jackson: Across the Universe” runs through December 8. Learn more here.
