Emphasizing work that challenges conventional ways of seeing, the List's exhibitions extend the range of the average Joe's imagination.. Inside Track
Six to eight different shows are held each year. While some showcase trendy new artwork, others feature pieces created within the last 30 to 40 years that go the more historical route. Text panels and brochures are available as supplements to the exhibits or as guides for those who need a little help grasping the concept of contemporary art.

Artists
While the museum showcases pieces from Boston and other parts of Massachusetts, many international artists are also featured.

Who's There
The museum sees all walks of life trickle in: MIT intellectual types, curious tourists and art connoisseurs alike will go out of their way for a visit. As you'd probably expect, this is a brainy museum, usually far ahead of the curve. Just be sure to tune out the other patrons when they lecture one another.
