Reviews & write-ups

Time Out Boston ↗ — “Once crammed into a tiny building in Back Bay, the ICA is now the cultural cornerstone of the Seaport District. The dramatic, glass-walled building houses galleries, a theatre and a café.”
Condé Nast Traveler ↗ — “this sleek and sexy museum does a beautiful job of connecting the city to the global contemporary art scene.”
