LaiSun Keane presents Passages: Stephen Hamilton which features the art of Stephen Hamilton, a Boston-based artist who incorporates both Western and African techniques in his work. According to an artist statement, this series "examines the movement between adolescence and adulthood, adulthood and elderhood, as well as life, death, and rebirth in African and African-American folklore and philosophy." Hamilton's artwork is vibrant, captivating and steeped in history and meaning. The gallery is open Wednesday to Saturday, 11 a.m. — 6 p.m., Sunday, 11 a.m. — 4 p.m., or by appointment. LaiSun Keane is located at 460C Harrison Ave C8A, Boston, MA. For more information, please visit here. | |

The Rochester Museum of Fine Arts presents Cindy Rizza: Habitats a solo show that features inviting and comforting oil paintings of familiar domestic items. Cindy Rizza's paintings "delicately [render] everyday domestic objects we use to create a sense of security- their utilitarian and decorative functions act to create a sanctuary." Her work simultaneously brings a sense of warm nostalgia and chilling loss.
The museum is open Monday to Friday, 8:30 a.m. — 6 p.m. The Rochester Museum of Fine Arts is located at 150 Wakefield Street, Rochester, NH. For more information, please visit here.
