Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St.,

AbStranded brings together contemporary American artists who use fiber-based materials to investigate the complex lineage of abstraction. A prominent use of the hand looms large — through knitting, weaving, quilting, and more — and suggests an alternative mode of communication within a digital society. Together, the works reveal how artists employ the language of abstraction to speak about the intertwined histories and politics of craft, race, and gender.

Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
Presented in collaboration with Syracuse University's School of Visual and Performing Arts and the School of Architecture, "Art and Architecture as Evidence" is an exhibition that investigates the possibility of interpreting art and architecture as evidence — a body of facts or information indicating whether a belief or proposition is true or valid. Starting with the work of Lawrence Abu Hamdan of Forensic Architecture, the gallery will be reinstalled throughout the semester as a way to investigate the question central to this exhibition: can art or architecture "prove" that an event occurred?

Veterans Creative Arts Festival Everson Museum of Art
Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
Across the country, Department of Veterans Affairs facilities incorporate creative arts into their therapy programs to help veterans recover from and cope with physical and emotional disabilities. The National Veterans Creative Arts Festival is an annual celebration of the progress and recovery made through that therapy and is a way to recognize the creative achievements of our nation's veterans. The competition begins at a local level, where veterans enrolled in VA health care facilities submit work in visual arts categories ranging from oil painting to leatherwork, as well as categories in the performing arts and creative writing. First, second, and third place entries are awarded for each category, and the competition culminates in a national exhibition featuring selected gold medal winners. A selection of the participants from the Syracuse VA Medical Center are displayed at the Everson.

Dead to the Core is a collective of singer/songwriters and acoustic musicians with a shared love of the music of the Grateful Dead. In this intimate concert, they will pay tribute to the extraordinary songs that the band wrote and interpreted, not through note-for-note re-creations of particular performances or studio tracks, but by playing the music their own way—letting the songs grow and evolve collaboratively in the true spirit of the Dead.

Storch Theater, Syracuse Stage
820 E. Genesee St.,

In the magic-comic On the Lake, playwright Reza de Wet revisits Anton Chekhov's The Seagull, with an eye on exposing the tensions beneath the surface of the Chekhovian world. Zooming in on Constantine's symbolist play-within-the-play, de Wet imagines the experience from Nina's perspective: a dreamlike vision of the future, where the hope of escape is linked directly to the potential for the theater itself to rise up and fly away.

AbStranded brings together contemporary American artists who use fiber-based materials to investigate the complex lineage of abstraction. A prominent use of the hand looms large — through knitting, weaving, quilting, and more — and suggests an alternative mode of communication within a digital society. Together, the works reveal how artists employ the language of abstraction to speak about the intertwined histories and politics of craft, race, and gender.

*CANCELLED* On the Lake Syracuse University Drama Department
Storch Theater, Syracuse Stage
820 E. Genesee St.,
Syracuse
In the magic-comic On the Lake, playwright Reza de Wet revisits Anton Chekhov's The Seagull, with an eye on exposing the tensions beneath the surface of the Chekhovian world. Zooming in on Constantine's symbolist play-within-the-play, de Wet imagines the experience from Nina's perspective: a dreamlike vision of the future, where the hope of escape is linked directly to the potential for the theater itself to rise up and fly away.
