through December 1-31, 2025

The Medici Museum of Art is presenting “The Light of Tomorrow,” an exhibition of Mara Sfara’s recent figurative sculptures, paintings, and mixed-media works.

Best known for her animals, Sfara has created a show highlighting her longtime interest in renewal, resilience, and hope for the future. The museum’s executive director, Katelyn Amendolara-Russo, says, “Sfara’s art radiates compassion, curiosity, and timeless storytelling. It brings a sense of beauty and optimism to a world often clouded by uncertainty.”

The art historian Steven Naifah discerns “a streamlined Art Deco elegance in Sfara’s work, but also a sense of whimsy altogether Sfara’s own… The technical skill, which is extraordinary, is entirely at the service of her idealized vision.”

Founded under Foundation Medici in 1992, the Medici Museum of Art (MMA) became a publicly accessible educational institution in 2019, dedicated to enriching lives through the visual arts. As a nonprofit museum, MMA is committed to offering free access to exhibitions, collections, guided tours, and educational programs that serve all ages and backgrounds.
