The Mattatuck Museum in Waterbury, CT, will host the premiere showing of The Body Imagined: Figurative Art in the Bank of America Collection from June 22 through September 28, 2025.
This curated exhibition features 97 artworks ranging from the late 1960s to the present, exploring diverse interpretations of the human figure by notable artists such as Milton Avery, Nick Cave, Andy Warhol, and Cindy Sherman.
On opening day, Sunday, June 22, the Museum will offer reduced $5 admission and celebrate with remarks at 1 PM.
Organized through Bank of America’s Art in our Communities program, the exhibition is divided into three thematic sections: Body Language, Changing Forms, and Framing the Figure.
Museum Director Bob Burns emphasized the significance of this collaboration, highlighting the shared commitment to making impactful art accessible to the public and fostering dialogue on cultural identity.
Complementing the exhibition, the Museum will offer diverse programs throughout the summer, including artist talks, film screenings, family activities, yoga sessions, and salsa nights, all curated to deepen engagement with the exhibition’s themes.
The Mattatuck Museum, recently expanded and renovated with a $9 million investment, holds over 8,000 objects representing American art and regional history. It is supported by state and federal arts agencies and is part of the Connecticut Art Trial network.
