Artist Talk with Eben Haines

Trustman Art Gallery presents WELL, featuring work by Eben Haines. This exhibition is on view through Friday, May 17, with an artist talk on Thursday, May 2 from 6:30-7:30

In WELL, Haines presents a series of disjointed assemblages intended to reveal the fractures in the spyglass of capitalism, through which we’re made to believe that if one cannot afford a place in the world, then one does not deserve a place in the world. The exhibition title refers to the largest installation in the show, an immersive work that invites viewers to enter into the bottom of a well.

 Eben Haines was a recipient of the 2018 Massachusetts Cultural Council Artist Fellowship in Drawing, as well as the 2021 James and Audrey Foster Prize from the ICA Boston. He recently deinstalled a 3-month durational sculpture that was part of the 2023 Now + There Public Art Accelerator Program.
