Early life and education Sherman was born in Pensacola, Florida in 1957. Three months after her birth, her family moved to Midway Island and later settled in Virginia in 1963. After graduating with a B.A. from Boston College in 1980, she went on to receive her M.F.A. in 1998 from New York University. As a graduate student, Sherman did an internship with Ursula von Rydingsvard, who inspired Sherman's work[1] Career Sherman’s works activate traditional fine art materials with digital tools to create multi-sensory installations, often collaborating with composers.[2] In 2012, her piece Eri After Dark, a collaboration with the French composer Benoit Granier, premiered at the Beijing Conservatory.[3] In 2014, she exhibited the multi-media installation “Delay,” a collaboration with sound artist Florian Grond at Trondheim's Norwegian University of Science and Technology's Galleri KiT,[4] which was subsequently shown at Oboro[5] as part of the International Digital Art Biennial (BIAN)[6] and the Montreal Digital Spring 2016. For this piece, Brett Bouma and Martin Villiger at The Wellman Center for Photomedicine (Massachusetts General Hospital Harvard Medical School) provided the Fourier-domain Optical Coherence Tomography Scanning of the surface one of Sherman’s early paintings, which Grond subsequently sonified and Sherman and Grond turned into an installation, where the ‘voice’ of the painting could be heard. [7] This exhibition took place just prior to a survey of Sherman’s work, focusing on her interest in the correlation between the visual, aural and haptic senses, also presented at Oboro in fall of 2016. [8]  In 2020 Mario Diacono organized a showing of her audience-triggered Black Box, which transforms a typically rational computational device (a typical black box) into something emotionally fraught through a choreographed play of light, movement and sound – musical composition composed by Mathieu Corajod.[11] The piece was first shown in 2019 during the artists’ residencies at the Cité des international arts.[12.) Sherman also teaches at Boston College and Northeastern University and has served as the interim Associate Director of Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Program in Art, Culture and Technology. [13]  From 2003 to 2004, she was an Artist in Residence at MIT in mechanical engineering. [14] While there, she also worked with the MIT glass lab to cast a painting in glass, which led to a residency at the Pilchuck Glass School. Link to: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilchuck_Glass_School Earlier in her career, while pursuing her art work, she also worked as an art critic, publishing numerous articles on the visual arts in such publications as ARTnews and Arts International. She also wrote criticism as a regular contributor for  The Boston Globe (1990) and The Boston Herald (1991-2003), and was the chief art critic for the Chicago Sun-Times (from 1988-1990) and a columnist for WBUR's online magazine. In 2009, Sherman was awarded a Fulbright to the Taipei National University of the Arts, in 2012 to Koç University (Istanbul) and in 2012 to  Trondheim's Norwegian University of Science and Technology. In 2016, Leonardo Electronic Almanac/MIT Press published Mary Sherman: What if You Could Hear a Painting, devoted to her work in painting and sound.[15] In 1989, Sherman, along with a number of Chicago artists founded the artists-run TransCultural Exchange, which was incorporated September 17, 2002 as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.[15] Like Sherman’s work, TransCultural Exchange’s first project, “Reverse Angle” – a traveling exhibition between Chicago and Viennese artists that included a film series, concert and reading program (supported by Another Chicago Magazine) [16] [17] encouraged transdiciplinarity and international collaboration, which have become the nonprofit’s hallmark. Since its founding, TransCultural Exchange has produced over 200 projects, cultural exchanges, exhibitions, and public art works in more than 60 countries. [18] In 2002, UNESCO awarded TransCultural Exchange sponsorship for its Tile Project: Destination: The World. [19] In 2007, the organization began producing the largest international forum for working artists to meet, network and exchange best practices, TransCultural Exchange’s International Conferences on Opportunities in the Arts.[20][21] Footnotes: [1] "Move Me" (PDF).
