A non-thematic exhibition of new works by 48 artists. Featuring my recent limestone sculpture, JAX-IN-THE-BOX*, one of the artworks selected by juror Fitsum Shebeshe and mentioned in the Washington Post's review of the show:
...is echoed by Alan Rhody’s “Jax-in-the-Box,” which looks like a flimsy children’s toy but was in fact carved from a block of limestone. Metal and stone do appear in “Sculpture Now 2022,” but most often in amusingly deceptive guises.

Reception: Virtual
One of 36 artists selected from 135 entries for MFA's Maskulinity 2021 online exhibition by show juror Anthony Shostak. "Some of the artists strip away masks to reveal roles that may themselves be merely deeper layers that mask true identity. Others present images of fully masked men whose true selves are in plain sight or which are actually defined by the mask itself. The artists play to their strengths, pushing their chosen medium to create visions of masculinity and identity which we help complete through the participatory act of viewing."
