The work of Associate Professor of Art Murray McMillan and his wife Megan of MASSArt, Boston was featured at Brown Univesity’s Granoff Center in a new work, When We Didn't Touch the Ground, a large-scale video installation, as well as selected installations from previous years in a major retrospective, from April 27-May 16, 2012.

The new installation is a homage to the environments that the McMillans created as children; a reinterpretation of early childhood imaginative life, an autobiographic story time, and an exploration of the meaning of collaboration. The work was notably reviewed in The Boston Globe soon after the opening.
