Event Description

Lucy Lacoste Gallery is delighted to present Chris Gustin: Wild Things, September 13- October 11, 2025, an exhibition of closed form abstract ceramic sculpture. The artist, a visionary force in the field of abstract ceramics, uses melting wood ash from his firings to reveal form, creating works that are anthropomorphic, landscape and cloudlike, galactic and otherworldly. These shifts in the piece’s interpretation are essential to the artist. Gustin envisions his work “connect[ing] the viewer to their own history, their own sense of imagination.” While Gustin started his extensive career making vessels and functional pots, he eventually began to transform them into open sculptural forms. His most recent work closes these forms, leading his practice to the realm of pure sculpture. Wild Things shares all new closed forms from the artist’s recent developments. Gustin is one of the preeminent abstract ceramic sculptors working in the US. Wild Things opens September 13, 2025, from 5-7 PM and is on view at Lucy Lacoste Gallery, 25 Main St., Concord, MA 01742, open Monday through Saturday, 1:00 to 5:00 pm and by appointment.

    West Side Story

    Concord Center takes justifiable pride in its history, but today great things are happening in West Concord. Innovation and self-reliance are nothing new on the west side of Route 2; they’ve defined the community for centuries.

    Established for Social & Mutual Improvement: The Concord Lyceum

    The Lyceum Movement started in New England in 1826, when educator and scientist Josiah Holbrook founded the first lyceum in Millbury, Massachusetts. Inspired by the classical Lykeios (Λύκειος) in Ancient Greece, where Aristotle taught, the movement was created to bring education to ordinary people through lectures, debates, and readings. Lyceums quickly spread across New England, fostering education, self-improvement, and civic engagement, and many towns soon formed lyceums of their own, including Boston in 1829 and Salem in 1830. By the 1830s, there were Lyceums across the country.
