The secret is out. The bathrooms bordering the new Art of the Americas wing at the Museum of Arts have been taken over by a group of artists looking to commemorate the anniversary of "Flush the Walls," a protest-exhibit held exactly 40 years ago tonight.
The roster is impressive: Maude Morgan prize winner Laura Chasman, ICA Foster Prize finalist Catherine D'Ignazio, painter Joe Wardwell, and also David Raymond and Jo Sandman, two artists who participated in the original exhibit.
Greg Cook, the artist, blogger, and freelance arts writer who organized the event, said that it's meant to both celebrate the anniversary and give the MFA a little nudge to pay more attention to local artists.
