MFA Boston Opens First Career Retrospective of Suzanne Jackson
The MFA Boston opened Suzanne Jackson: What Is Love on September 26, 2026, the first full-career retrospective of the artist, with over 60 paintings and drawings.

The Museum of Fine Arts, Boston opened Suzanne Jackson: What Is Love on September 26, 2026, the first retrospective devoted to the full breadth of the artist's career. More than 60 paintings and drawings trace six decades of work shaped by Jackson's belief in the interconnectedness of all living things. The exhibition, co-organized by the Walker Art Center and SFMOMA, runs through January 18, 2027. Early ethereal canvases hang alongside recent suspended works that move off the wall into space. The show arrives as Jackson, born 1944, receives long-overdue institutional recognition.
