Exhibition organized by the Museum of Contemporary Art Denver. Photo: Minneapolis Institute of Art. May 27-Aug 28, 2016 Mark Mothersbaugh Myopia Organized by the Museum of Contemporary Art Cleveland. Joint presentation with the Akron Art Museum. Myopia is the first retrospective of the work of Mark Mothersbaugh, spanning the beginning of his career in the early 1970s through the present. Born in Akron, OH, and co-founder of the New Wave band DEVO, Mothersbaugh has been making art for more than forty years—since before the band’s inception in the early 1970s. This body of work presents a unique combination of cultural criticism and personal expression through drawings, films, paintings, sculpture and music. But more than that, his work provides a missing link in the history of contemporary art and culture. At once an artist, musician, and tinkerer, he offers a key to understanding the current state of art, with its hybridity, subjectivity and fluid boundaries. Mothersbaugh’s work reveals his unique artistic voice and also asserts his role in the intersecting legacies that have formed contemporary culture. Throughout his career, Mothersbaugh’s work has both embraced handmade qualities and also incorporated the slick elements of consumer culture. With a continuous assault on the de-humanizing nature of our highly technological society, Mothersbaugh’s work asks the question: how can we be ourselves in the face of an impersonal, consumer-driven society? But the answer is complex. Mothersbaugh doesn’t simply advocate for a war of the organic against the mechanistic. He also doesn’t maintain a simple, ironic distance from the synthetic nature of modern society. Instead, the artist insists that there is the room for individual creativity in consumer society. Sometimes the picture he paints is dark and cynical and sometimes playful and light, but he always makes the case that it is possible to find personal pleasure and artistic expression in the realms of both technology and the handmade. The band DEVO, with its homespun robotic image, is one articulation of that aesthetic vision, which takes a multitude of forms in Mothersbaugh’s larger body of work. MOCA Cleveland is partnering with the Akron Art Museum to jointly present Mothersbaugh’s work in simultaneous exhibitions across Northeast Ohio. Myopia in Cleveland focuses on experimentation, performance, and sound. Works on view present the Mothersbaugh’s early sketchbooks and ephemera, documentation of DEVO’s first performances, the band’s commercial and conceptual development, and Mothersbaugh’s ongoing experimentation with manipulated musical instruments. Myopia at the Akron Art Museum turns its attention on Mothersbaugh’s visual art practice, including installations of recent sculpture, prints, rugs, and a collection of 30,000 postcard-sized drawings the artist has created and utilized for inspiration and exploration throughout his career. By visiting the exhibition in both venues, audiences will get a wide-ranging perspective of Mothersbaugh’s prolific output of artwork, music, ideas, restless invention, and distinctive sense of humor. Taken together, this incredibly unified body of work reveals the artist’s persistent attempt to navigate between the conflicting forces of cynicism and freedom, and irony and originality. Like his early work with DEVO, Mothersbaugh explores the complex relationship between what is synthetic and what is authentic. Major support for Mark Mothersbaugh: Myopia is provided by Lexus, the John P. Murphy Foundation , and Clear Choice LASIK Eye . Generous support is also provided by the Kulas Foundation, Kichler Lighting, Medical Mutual of Ohio, and Thompson Hine LLP. All 2016 exhibitions are funded by Leadership Circle gifts from an Anonymous Donor, Yuval Brisker, Doreen + Dick Cahoon, Joanne Cohen + Morris Wheeler, Margaret Cohen + Kevin Rahilly, Becky Dunn, Lauren Rich Fine + Gary Giller, Harriet Goldberg, Michelle + Richard Jeschelnig, Donna + Stewart Kohl, Toby Devan Lewis, and Scott Mueller.

Jan 30–Aug 2, 2026 Ohio Now: State of Nature Ohio Now: State of Nature brings together artists across Ohio who focus on sustainability, agriculture, food justice, and natural ecologies. Through diverse materials and perspectives, these artists reflect on humanity’s relationship with the environment. Some incorporate found elements like waterway pollutants, plant-based dyes, and grass clippings, while others investigate topics ranging from climate change conspiracies to natural history and arthropods. Many draw directly from personal experiences as farmers, grocery workers, or environmental observers. Spanning painting, sculpture, printmaking, photography, installation, and community-based practice, the works in this exhibition highlight the urgency of environmental issues while inviting dialogue and response. Ohio Now is a new, ongoing exhibition series showcasing newly commissioned and recent work by contemporary artists. This collaboration between CAC and moCa Cleveland connects outstanding artists living and working across the state and engages audiences with the evolving landscape of creative practices in their communities. Following its presentation in Cincinnati, Ohio Now: State of Nature will be on display at moCa Cleveland January 30–August 2, 2026. Participating artists are Catherine Clements (Bowling Green), Avery Mags Duff (Akron), Myles Dunigan (Oberlin), Tina Gutierrez (Cincinnati), Brian Harnetty (Columbus), Desert Kitchen Collective: Glenna Jennings, Jalisa Robinson & Friends (Dayton), Keith Lemley (Ravenna), Celeste Malvar-Stewart (Columbus), Lori Nix & Kathleen Gerber (Cleveland), Elena Osterwalder (Columbus), Praxis Fiber Workshop (Cleveland), John Sabraw (Athens), Charmaine Spencer (Cleveland), Supermrin (Cincinnati), and Amy Youngs (Columbus).

Courtesy of the artist, Galerie Gregor Staiger, Zurich & Galerie Crèvecoeur, Paris May 27-Aug 28, 2016 Shana Moulton Shana Moulton creates unexpected relationships between commercial and spiritual worlds in her colorful, surreal videos. Starring the artist and staged in artificial domestic sets, these works feature the protagonist in uncomfortable or anxious situations like having a stomach ache or being locked in a room. Consumer goods, advertising, and pop cultural artifacts such as book lights, ergonomic keyboards, prescription drug commercials, ASMR YouTube videos, and Enya songs become curious tools for attempting to solve her problems. Blending these elements, the protagonist has bizarre, even magical experiences: Activia® yogurt brings about internal spiritual awakening; a secretary desk provides the mystical “third” eye; a Swiss Healing Rock Powder cures restless legs by multiplying them and making them dance. Although humorous and whimsical, these uncanny videos question whether the “wellness” industry, with its many products and strategies, ever really provides well-being.

Aug 28, 2026-Mar 7, 2027 Rachel Rose Lake Valley Lake Valley is an enchanting eight-minute video by artist Rachel Rose. Rose mines themes and imagery from the history of children’s literature, inventively combining collage, found footage, and repurposed materials to create dream-like stories about loneliness, imagination, and longing for personal connection. Abandoned on a lonely day, an imagined, rabbit-like pet in Lake Valley leaves its family’s suburban home in order to look for friendship in the ethereal land of a nearby forest. Rose used imagery assembled from 19th and 20th century children’s books to create the work’s cel animation. She used this salvaged media to generate imagery with unusual appearances like a shirt made of animal skin or spaghetti made of hair. Lake Valley’s sound editing is similarly unexpected: actions are accompanied by recognizable but atypical sounds. Balancing notions of tedium, adventure, abandonment, and companionship, Lake Valley offers a sumptuous, transfixing storybook world that explores universal human fears and desires. Support provided by Art Bridges Foundation. All exhibitions at moCa supported by About the Artist Rachel Rose Rachel Rose (b.1986, New York, NY) works in film, painting, sculpture and drawing.
