List Visual Arts Center

Just as MIT pushes at the frontiers of scientific inquiry, it is the mission of the List Visual Arts Center, located on the campus of MIT, to explore challenging, intellectually inquisitive, contemporary art making in all media. The purpose is to not only enjoy art's traditional focus on aesthetics, but to explore art that examines the cultural, social, and sometimes, scientific or economic, contexts that surround us; to expose, rethink, and represent aspects of our world. Artists of national and international stature, as well as emerging artists, are featured.
