Tufts University Art Galleries presents Art for the Future: Artists Call and Central American Solidarities through April 24. The exhibition centers on Artists Call Against US Intervention in Central America, a 1984 activist campaign. The exhibition shows just a portion of the lasting effects and legacy of the event: "Growing out of the friendships, solidarity networks, and political organizing amongst artists and activists such as Daniel Flores y Ascencio, Lucy Lippard, Doug Ashford, Leon Golub, and Coosje van Bruggen, the campaign resulted in exhibitions, performances, poetry readings, film screenings, concerts, and other cultural and educational events in over 27 cities across the United States and Canada." The exhibition is on view at both the Grossman & Anderson Galleries at SMFA and Aidekman Arts Center. The Aidekman Arts Center is located at 40 Talbots Ave., Medford, Massachusetts and the SMFA galleries are located at 230 The Fenway, Boston, Massachusetts.
