Due to an overwhelming response, MOCA is thrilled to extend its Exhibition “My Name is Maryan” until Sunday, October 2nd, 2022. Curated by Alison M. Gingeras, the Exhibition is a Monographic Presentation of four decades of Paintings, Sculptures, Drawings and Film by the Iconoclastic, Ground-Breaking Polish-Born Artist Maryan. Drawing upon new scholarship and a trove of never-before-exhibited works, “My Name is Maryan” is the first retrospective to holistically examine all periods of Maryan’s life and work. After closing in October, the Exhibition will then travel to Tel Aviv.
