Dewey Sq. muralist has more coming

Written By Unknown on Rabu, 02 Oktober 2013 | 12.32

The New York artist whose abstract mural is now occupying a prime art spot on a massive ventilation building in Dewey Square said people should expect to see more of his work throughout the city through next year.

"There will be a couple of surprises," Matthew Ritchie told the Herald yesterday. "It's part of a much larger project I'm working on that will take place over the year. It's one of seven pieces I'm doing in Boston."

The Dewey Square mural is a collaboration with the Institute of Contemporary Art and the Rose Kennedy Greenway.

It replaces a controversial mural of a giant yellow figure with its head wrapped in red fabric — which critics said resembled a Middle Eastern terrorist. That mural is no longer visible but isn't entirely gone.

"It was painted over," said Ritchie. "It's a shame, but murals outside don't last."

For a while last month, the Big Dig ventilation building was just a white wall.

Ritchie has another piece that's already in the ICA gallery. The only other planned work he would discuss yesterday included another big mural inside the ICA lobby and window artwork at the Chapel of Our Lady of Good Voyage.
