Context: Reading the Photography of Margaret Bourke-White Syracuse University Library Special Collections Research Center
Price: Free Bird Library, 6th Floor
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
Margaret Bourke-White (1904-1971) was a celebrity behind, and in front of, the camera. As a photographer for Life magazine from the 1930s through the 1950s, she documented unforgettable moments--African-American flood victims in Louisville, KY, standing in a bread line beneath a banner that reads almost mockingly "There's No Way Like the American Way"; just-liberated survivors of the Buchenwald Concentration Camp returning the camera's gaze under an eerily cinematic light; Mahatma Gandhi sitting cross-legged on the floor reading, spinning wheel in the foreground. Bourke-White's photographs helped shape the way millions of Americans experienced the Great Depression, the Second World War, and the world that followed. In front of the camera she cultivated an image of herself as fearless, undaunted in pursuit of her "shot," and fashionable, donning fine clothes and a coquettish smile. After three decades in the public eye Bourke-White began to write her memoirs in the early 1950s. When Portrait of Myself finally appeared in 1963, she had already published ten books, countless essays, and been the subject of many interviews. In fact, but for the occasional gallery exhibition, text had always surrounded Bourke-White's photographs. This exhibition explores how text "framed" the photography of Margaret Bourke-White and, ultimately, how she sought to transcend the limits of the medium that made her famous.

Painting Alumni Retrospective 914Works
914Works
914 E. Genesee St.,
Syracuse
The breadth and diversity of "Painting Alumni Retrospective" stand as evidence of the University's lasting impact on American culture since it became the first institution in the United States to offer a bachelor of fine arts degree 140 years ago. The exhibition includes small works by 21 alumni of the undergraduate painting program from the Class of 1959 to the Class of 2014. The exhibition shows the evolution of painting over a half century, from action painting to conceptual, post-conceptual, representational, interdisciplinary and contemporary works. As such, the exhibition addresses the historical phenomenon of American painting and the impact Syracuse University has had on the medium from the reign of critic Clement Greenberg '30 to the contemporary conversation. The artists represented include Barbara Vural, Louise Freshman Brown, Ken Rush, Scott Bennett, Deborah Walsh, Allyn Stewart, Linda Bigness, Elizabeth Brown Eagle, Yvonne Petkus, Heather Hertel, Francis Sills, Holly Cahill, Alexis Serio Hughes, Jennie Schaeffer, Adam Winner, Edward Holland, Emily Dierkes, Sean Ward, Joshua Kaplan, Mary Luke, and Jenna Race. Combined, they have amassed prestigious recognitions, including more than 50 museum exhibitions and a wide array of press coverage and critical acclaim from the likes of the New York Times, ARTnews, Greenberg, and the Syracuse Post-Standard.

Culture of the Cocktail Hour Onondaga Historical Association
Onondaga Historical Association
321 Montgomery St.,
Syracuse
The story of cocktail fashions has several associations with local history. This exhibit will discover some of those people, places and events, including Syracuse's most famous cocktail lounges of days gone by. Cocktails also conjure up the exciting era of the Roaring Twenties, when speakeasies flourished during the decade of Prohibition. Displays will include the story of one of the most famous local speakeasies, located just a few hundred feet from the OH Museum, including a menu of its libations, and the tale of the police raid that shut it down. Also on exhibit, along with other documents and artifacts of the era will be an original federal court ledger listing arrests and convictions across the state for Prohibition violations and a local brewery's recipes for "near beer" and flavored sodas, which helped keep them in business through the infamous "dry" years when America famously tried unsuccessfully to eliminate intoxicating beverages from its culture.

It's in Our Very Name: The Italian Heritage of Syracuse Onondaga Historical Association
Onondaga Historical Association
321 Montgomery St.,
Syracuse
As a crossroads for many immigrants from around the world, Syracuse became the home for Italians who were looking to build a better life. In turn, these immigrants changed Syracuse both physically, by helping with different architectural and infrastructure projects, and culturally, by importing new foods and customs to our community and by participation at all levels in the Syracuse economy. The exhibit will focus on the history and influence of Italian culture in Syracuse beginning with the name given to this village in 1825, which was adopted when John Wilkinson was inspired by a poem about Siracusa, Sicily. By the 1880s, an increasing number of Italian immigrants began to arrive to take advantage of the thriving Syracuse economy and other opportunities that were available. Some artifacts that will be highlighted include a wine press, a set of wooden bocce balls, and purses made at the Resnick purse factory.

Shadows: Fernando Orellana Everson Museum of Art
Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
The interactive artworks found in Shadows are designed to be used posthumously. Inspired by paranormal research, spiritualism, and ghost folklore, these machines continuously search for the dead, attempting to allow the departed continued use of their worldly possessions. Extracted from recent estate sales, the personal objects found in these techno-effigies are in a constant state of potential energy, awaiting their owner's return. By monitoring sudden fluctuations in temperature, infrared, and electromagnetic readings, the machines try to open a channel or doorway into the neither world. By this, each machine gives the dead an opportunity or proxy to continue interacting in this world and the next.

For nine years, beginning in 1960, Cloud Wampler donated some 170 Asian works to the Everson Museum. The collection is dominated by a particularly strong core of Chinese ceramics.

Sanford Biggers: Shuffle & Shake Urban Video Project
Everson Museum of Art Plaza
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
"Shuffle" and "Shake" form the first two parts of Sanford Biggers' Odyssean trilogy about the formation and dissolution of identity. Both works feature the electric presence of Ricardo Camillo, a Brazil-born, Germany-based choreographer, stuntman, clown and DJ. "Shuffle" explores how we matriculate through society, often masking our insecurities, pain, longing, and the internal schizophrenia of the id. The original soundtrack is composed from the artist's field recordings made in Indonesia. In "Shake," the second video of the trilogy, Camillo walks from the favelas (or shantytowns) of Brazil, to the ocean before finally transforming into an androgynous silver-skinned figure. Biggers' imagery and narrative simultaneously reference Greek mythology and the quintessential Afrofutrist aesthetics of Parliament Funkadelic. This exhibition marks the second installment of "Celestial Navigation: A Year into the Afro Future", a year-long program of exhibitions and events at Urban Video Project and partner organizations that takes Afrofuturism as its point of departure. Screening begins at dusk.

Switch: Prints by Dusty Herbig Gallery 4040

4040 New Court Ave (off Midler),

The large format relief prints were realized through Herbig's research into developing contradictions about the dichotomy of power/energy and his concerned interest in human population expansion and its ramifications on the earth and its inhabitants. Through his use of imagery of electrical outlets, sockets, switches and other receptacles, the work seeks to open dialog about what exactly power can mean to divergent populations around the globe.

Sanford Biggers: Shuffle & Shake Urban Video Project

"Shuffle" and "Shake" form the first two parts of Sanford Biggers' Odyssean trilogy about the formation and dissolution of identity. Both works feature the electric presence of Ricardo Camillo, a Brazil-born, Germany-based choreographer, stuntman, clown and DJ. "Shuffle" explores how we matriculate through society, often masking our insecurities, pain, longing, and the internal schizophrenia of the id. The original soundtrack is composed from the artist's field recordings made in Indonesia. In "Shake," the second video of the trilogy, Camillo walks from the favelas (or shantytowns) of Brazil, to the ocean before finally transforming into an androgynous silver-skinned figure. Biggers' imagery and narrative simultaneously reference Greek mythology and the quintessential Afrofutrist aesthetics of Parliament Funkadelic. This exhibition marks the second installment of "Celestial Navigation: A Year into the Afro Future", a year-long program of exhibitions and events at Urban Video Project and partner organizations that takes Afrofuturism as its point of departure.

These range from a 1923 view of construction to the 1948 interior of the famous Rainbow Lounge, along with historic scenes of the Cavalier Room, the Persian Terrace and other locations from its heyday. Additionally, there will be a half-dozen recent interior images taken this year by professional photographer Bruce Harvey. These show that the hotel still maintains an irreplaceable majesty despite years of faded glory. The hotel, which opened in 1924, has been closed and dormant for several years but a new owner has begun a massive project to renovate it for the future while restoring its grand architecture.

It's in Our Very Name: The Italian Heritage of Syracuse Onondaga Historical Association
Onondaga Historical Association
321 Montgomery St.,
Syracuse
As a crossroads for many immigrants from around the world, Syracuse became the home for Italians who were looking to build a better life. In turn, these immigrants changed Syracuse both physically, by helping with different architectural and infrastructure projects, and culturally, by importing new foods and customs to our community and by participation at all levels in the Syracuse economy. The exhibit will focus on the history and influence of Italian culture in Syracuse beginning with the name given to this village in 1825, which was adopted when John Wilkinson was inspired by a poem about Siracusa, Sicily. By the 1880s, an increasing number of Italian immigrants began to arrive to take advantage of the thriving Syracuse economy and other opportunities that were available. Some artifacts that will be highlighted include a wine press, a set of wooden bocce balls, and purses made at the Resnick purse factory.

Switch: Prints by Dusty Herbig Gallery 4040
Gallery 4040
4040 New Court Ave (off Midler),
Syracuse
The large format relief prints were realized through Herbig's research into developing contradictions about the dichotomy of power/energy and his concerned interest in human population expansion and its ramifications on the earth and its inhabitants. Through his use of imagery of electrical outlets, sockets, switches and other receptacles, the work seeks to open dialog about what exactly power can mean to divergent populations around the globe.

Culture of the Cocktail Hour Onondaga Historical Association
Onondaga Historical Association
321 Montgomery St.,
Syracuse
The story of cocktail fashions has several associations with local history. This exhibit will discover some of those people, places and events, including Syracuse's most famous cocktail lounges of days gone by. Cocktails also conjure up the exciting era of the Roaring Twenties, when speakeasies flourished during the decade of Prohibition. Displays will include the story of one of the most famous local speakeasies, located just a few hundred feet from the OH Museum, including a menu of its libations, and the tale of the police raid that shut it down. Also on exhibit, along with other documents and artifacts of the era will be an original federal court ledger listing arrests and convictions across the state for Prohibition violations and a local brewery's recipes for "near beer" and flavored sodas, which helped keep them in business through the infamous "dry" years when America famously tried unsuccessfully to eliminate intoxicating beverages from its culture.

A Long History Cut Short Point of Contact Gallery
Price: Free Point of Contact Gallery
350 W. Fayette St.,
Syracuse
Printmaking for the majority of its history has been a venue to communicate information to a massive audience. As new media outlets such as the Internet and social media dissipate the need for printed media, printmaking has found it a necessity and an opportunity to reevaluate its purpose as a medium. A Long History Cut Short includes artwork produced by nine multi-disciplinary students and faculty in the Department of Printmaking at Syracuse University who explore the boundaries of what is and can be considered "print" in both traditional and non-traditional approaches. Exhibiting Artists include Paul Dresden, Brent Erickson, Shorty Greene, Kevin Larmon, Jane McCurn, Landon Perkins, Eli Show, Taro Takizawa, and Stefan Zoller.

Sanford Biggers: Shuffle & Shake Urban Video Project
Everson Museum of Art Plaza
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
"Shuffle" and "Shake" form the first two parts of Sanford Biggers' Odyssean trilogy about the formation and dissolution of identity. Both works feature the electric presence of Ricardo Camillo, a Brazil-born, Germany-based choreographer, stuntman, clown and DJ. "Shuffle" explores how we matriculate through society, often masking our insecurities, pain, longing, and the internal schizophrenia of the id. The original soundtrack is composed from the artist's field recordings made in Indonesia. In "Shake," the second video of the trilogy, Camillo walks from the favelas (or shantytowns) of Brazil, to the ocean before finally transforming into an androgynous silver-skinned figure. Biggers' imagery and narrative simultaneously reference Greek mythology and the quintessential Afrofutrist aesthetics of Parliament Funkadelic. This exhibition marks the second installment of "Celestial Navigation: A Year into the Afro Future", a year-long program of exhibitions and events at Urban Video Project and partner organizations that takes Afrofuturism as its point of departure. Screening begins at dusk.

The interactive artworks found in Shadows are designed to be used posthumously. Inspired by paranormal research, spiritualism, and ghost folklore, these machines continuously search for the dead, attempting to allow the departed continued use of their worldly possessions. Extracted from recent estate sales, the personal objects found in these techno-effigies are in a constant state of potential energy, awaiting their owner's return. By monitoring sudden fluctuations in temperature, infrared, and electromagnetic readings, the machines try to open a channel or doorway into the neither world. By this, each machine gives the dead an opportunity or proxy to continue interacting in this world and the next.
