NORTH ADAMS — “RACE/HUSTLE,” a new exhibition by photographer and multidisciplinary artist Zora J. Murff, is now on view at the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art. Presented in Gallery 6.2 through November 2026, the show brings together photography, collage, painting and assemblage to examine spectacle, visual culture, capitalism and the commodification of Black life and resistance.
Curated by Philadelphia-based curator Terence Washington as part of Mass MoCA’s Curatorial Exchange Initiative, the exhibition invites viewers to interrogate their own role as spectators. Works like “Gas Money (Affirmation #1)” and the immersive installation “Metaspectacle (Race/Hustle)” blur the line between representation and revolution, positioning the museum itself as both a site of critique and complicity.
