The New ICA Museum Tour

On December 10th, the Institute of Contemporary Art unveiled its new home on Boston's waterfront offering a new, visionary building poised to capture the stimulation of contemporary culture and the excitement of a revitalized waterfront area.

Award-winning architects Diller Scofidio + Renfro designed the ICA, conceiving the building both "from the sky down," as a contemplative space for experiencing contemporary art, and "from the ground up," providing dynamic areas for public enjoyment. The design weaves together interior and exterior space, producing shifting perspectives of the waterfront throughout the museum's galleries and public spaces.

Among the breathtaking and provocative works being exhibited are pieces that seem to bend, twist, morph, or enter a new dimension as artists such as Anish Kapoor, Bridget Riley, and James Turrell use optical effects to alter the way we perceive ourselves and the space around us.

Featured Exhibit: SUPER VISION
December 10, 2006 - April 29, 2007

Superhuman vision, once the stuff of comic books, is no longer a fantasy, with new technologies transforming both what can be seen and how we are able to see. Super Vision examines how contemporary artists have responded to and interpreted this changing nature of vision, presenting work by 27 international artists in painting, sculpture, video, and photography.

Depart Westin: 10:00 a.m.
Return to Westin: 2:00 p.m.

Cost: $18.00 per person for museum tour only.

Optional lunch on own at Water Café (If you wish to return to The Westin before lunch, transportation will be available.)

Theatre Matinee: Miss Witherspoon by Christopher Durang
(limited availability)
Presented at The Lyric Stage, 140 Clarendon St., Boston, MA

Playwright Christopher Durang's Pulitzer-Prize-finalist, Miss Witherspoon, begs the question "does life get any better after death?" Veronica, after committing suicide, is destined to return to earth, reincarnated over and over, learning that the "other side" offers no respite. Navigating through the rough seas of fate and free will (and large objects falling from the sky), she searches for truth and peacefulness, questioning ideas of faith in a "waiting room" between death and rebirth.

Cost: $30.00 per person
Depart Westin: 1:30 p.m. (walking)
Return to Westin: 4:00 p.m. (walking)
