Selective Histories explores the continuously shifting narratives of time and space. According to the artist, Andrew Stearns, not only does history have a way of repeating itself, but at times, it simply fades and is lost. The Falcon’s Nest Gallery at the Hive showcases Stearn’s interpretation of relevant historical moments and the change in perception over time. Like postcards of yesteryear, Stearns demonstrates that printmaking provides a integral component in acknowledging and celebrating these events visually.

Andrew Stearns, originally from New Hampshire, graduated from Massachusetts College of Art + Design with a BFA in both Printmaking and the History of Art. Stearns continued to live and work in Boston upon graduation.
