Spotlight Series | Framing within Art History

April 1, 2025 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm

MFA Spotlight Series | Framing Art History with Casey Broker and Noah Cox

Join us in the Rococo Gallery as Casey Broker and Noah Cox direct our attention to something found in every art museum but not often recognized as a work of art – the frame. Frames come in all shapes, sizes, and colors and have existed in the history of art since Ancient Egypt. Over time, they have evolved in style and function, switched between artworks, been discarded, or been preserved. In this intimate conversation, we’ll learn more about the history of frames and discover how we can connect to the ones at the MFA.
