The Galleries of Syracuse, 447 S. Salina St.,
Syracuse
Terry McMaster is a social worker for Catholic Charities and teaches human services for Columbia College. His painted images manifest from the realm of the unconscious both personal and collective. His photographs take images from the built environment and from nature, and attempt to reveal a deeper reality than what is visible on the surface.

Price: Free Ann Felton Multicultural Center and Gallery
Onondaga Community College,
Syracuse
David Ludwig began his career as a painter and slowly evolved from two-dimensional color field paintings on canvas to three-dimensional wall reliefs or structures constructed of plywood. His work as a model builder for an architecture firm in Philadelphia had a major impact on his working method as well as on the direction his work would take. At first glance, Ludwig's colorful abstract structures are minimal in means. Closer observation reveals, however, each structure's complexity. Controlled completely, the artist sets up a dialogue between form, light, color and texture from the very beginning.

Fictional Reality and Radical Sanity: A Girl in Progress Syracuse Technology Garden Gallery
Price: Free Syracuse Technology Garden
235 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
A solo show that celebrates the art of Syracuse-based Pop Surreal/Lowbrow painter Eugenia Mancini Horan. "Using fingers instead of brushes, my goal is to use color, subject, and simplicity to try to tap back into the psyche we had as children. The world was bold and vibrant. We were playful, devious, and mischievous without fear. And the world was ours, just ours, for the asking. Time teaches us to color in the lines; aging expects us to act like adults. I reject that stigma in my life and in my work," says Mancini.

John James Audubon and the American Landscape Syracuse University Library Special Collections Research Center
Price: Free Bird Library, 6th Floor
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
John James Audubon and the American Landscape showcases Syracuse University's copy of the rare double elephant folio The Birds of America. Printed in London and Edinburgh between 1827 and 1838, the work is a stunning visual catalog, featuring 435 plates depicting American bird life. The enterprise consumed much of Audubon's adult life and took him from the Pennsylvania woods to the Florida Keys and the Labrador coast. To its 19th-century audience, The Birds of America was much more than an ornithological inventory. It brought the exotic American wilderness into the drawing rooms and parlors of its wealthy subscribers. In 1896, former mayor of Syracuse and Syracuse University trustee James J. Welden donated a copy to the University. Today, The Birds of America is known for its extraordinary value, fetching more than ten million dollars at auction. The exhibition situates The Birds of America in the wider contexts of Audubon's life, 19th-century scientific knowledge, and a rapidly changing landscape that was becoming less exotic each day. Also on display are Alexander Wilson's American Ornithology (1808–14), Audubon's textual companion to The Birds of America (Ornithological Biography, 1831–49), and later volumes that speak to Audubon's legacy, such as first editions of Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species (1859) and Aldo Leopold's A Sand County Almanac and Sketches Here and There (1949). Syracuse University's copy of The Birds of America is disbound, which makes it possible for visitors to the exhibition to consider several different prints at once. Some of the engravings on display include the barn owl, Swainson's hawk, and the long-billed curlew, all of which depict American avian life against the backdrop of encroaching civilization.

Ray Trudell Photography The Art Store Gallery
Price: Free The Art Store/Commercial Art Supply
935 Erie Blvd. E.,
Syracuse
Ray is a lifelong local resident whom describes himself as a disgruntled union thug... a better description might be a man who thinks for himself, lives life to his own beat and in his own unique skewed style shows us the way he sees life, through the lens of his camera. He finds those peaceful refuges that are tucked in between the chaos and the hectic. Those bites of peace and nature that make living in Central New York worth all the rain, shoveling and construction!

Marna Bell: Imperfect Memories Light Work Gallery
Light Work Gallery
316 Waverly Ave., Syracuse University,
Syracuse
With "Imperfect Memories" Marna Bell returns to some of the familiar themes of her Hudson Past/Perfect series. "In both projects," Bell explains, "my subjects are put into a motion blur, not only to allude to the passage of time, but more so, to the fading of memories. In addition, the motion gives the work a more painterly effect; the slow shutter speed creates a haunting quality." While the windows of the train create the parameters in the Hudson series, in "Imperfect Memories," the camera is set up before a flickering screen. In both cases, the camera captures pieces of information sometimes unseen by the human eye. Like memory, these photographs document feelings more than actual events. The figures are familiar and foreboding — even nightmarish. These images represent narratives that are both true and half true; some dimly recalled and some totally forgotten. Bell writes, "My work reminds us that memories morph and change over time and that we are limited in how much of the past we can retain, retrieve or understand."

International Art from the Permanent Collection Syracuse University Art Museum
Price: Free Syracuse University Art Museum, Shaffer Art Building
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
Highlighting the breadth of the collections' encyclopedic holdings and exploring international artists and themes, these new displays explore the genres of photography, prints, paintings and sculpture. Two of the exhibitions on display in the Print and Photo Study Galleries will highlight the University's vast holdings of historical Japanese photographs and prints. The third exhibition will examine artwork created by international artists who have immigrated to the United States. America's Calling, presented in the Gallery of American Art, is an exhibition of 16 works of art by 15 foreign-born artists, including Ben Shahn, Yasuo Kuniyoshi, and Josef Albers. The artists included in the exhibition, or their families, were drawn to the United States because it offered opportunities unavailable in their homelands. A variety of media is presented in the display, including painting, ceramics, sculpture and printmaking that are handled using often innovative techniques. Cumulatively, these artists had a profound and permanent effect on the evolution of American art. The Photo Study Room will present Visions for Sale: Photographs of Nineteenth Century Japan, an exhibition of 22 hand-colored albumen prints from the 19th century exploring the country's people, land and environment that was quickly changing due to modernization. European photographers such as Felice Beato and Baron Raimond Stillfield traveled to Japan to document the nation's exotic landscape and historically idiosyncratic jobs before they were swept away by the tide of modernism. Ukiyo-e to Shin Hanga: Japanese Woodcuts from the Syracuse University Art Collection will be installed in the Print Study Room and draws from the University's collection of over 300 examples from this important and hugely influential art movement. The prints on view date from the height of color Ukiyo-e printmaking (c1780-1868) through Japan's Meiji period (1868-1912) to 20th century impressions of the Shin Hanga movement (1915-1940s). Masters of this medium are represented, including the work of Utamaro, Kuniyoshi, Hokusai, Hiroshida, Tsuchiya Koitsu and Yoshida Hiroshi. The prints exemplify the soft, painterly style that is synonymous with the Japanese woodcut, and illustrates the wide range of subjects from courtesans to Kabuki theater and the Japanese landscape.

Henninger Art Class: Voices Heard and Celebrated Syracuse University Art Museum
Syracuse University Art Museum, Shaffer Art Building
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
This exhibition of artwork by Henninger High School students in the Syracuse City School district was inspired by the exhibition Nyumba ya Sanaa: Works from the Maryknoll Collection. This display of 18 works of student art is the result of community collaboration between SUArt Galleries Director Domenic Iacono, Henninger High School Art Teacher Lori Lizzio, and Stephen Mahan of the Photography and Literacy (P.A.L.) Project. This past spring P.A.L Project partnered with SUArt Galleries and Lori Lizzio's art class from Henninger High School to create artwork that could be used in an exhibition. The Maryknoll Collection, housed in the University Art Collection, inspired the students' artwork. This collection, recently acquired from Nyumba ya Sanaa (School of Art) in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, served as a creative springboard and inspiration to document what they felt were distinctive moments from their daily lives. Using simple point and shoot cameras and basic Photoshop skills, the students highlighted personally meaningful moments, scenes or people of their daily lives; much as the Tanzanian artists had done when making their art.

An American Look: Fashion, Decorative Arts and Gustav Stickley Everson Museum of Art
Price: $10 regular, $8 students/seniors/military, $5 Everson members, $30 family (up to 2 adults & 4 children) Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
"An American Look" is a unique exhibition that, for the first time, examines the influence of an Arts & Crafts aesthetic in American fashion during the early 20th century. Color, texture and motif were all adapted from the Arts & Crafts elements of furniture, ceramics and other furnishings of the period for upper-class fashion. Clothing styles of 1910-1914 are particularly representative of the elegant simplicity of Arts and Crafts objects popular in the preceding decade. "An American Look" includes 34 examples from the Sue Ann Genet Costume Collection housed at Syracuse University, along with ceramics, Stickley furniture, and other decorative art examples from the Everson's permanent collection. The exhibition is co-curated by Jeffrey Mayer, curator of the Genet Costume Collection and associate professor of fashion design and history at Syracuse University, and Everson Museum Senior Curator Debora Ryan.

Combat Paper Redux ArtRage Gallery
Price: Free ArtRage Gallery
505 Hawley Ave.,
Syracuse
Celebrating our 5th Anniversary, we have brought "Combat Paper" back to Syracuse! An earlier version of this exhibit featuring images on paper made out of shredded combat uniforms was our Grand Opening exhibition in October 2008. The Combat Paper project began as art therapy utilizing paper as its medium and has been generating hope and inspiration for war veterans of Iraq, Afghanistan and yes...Vietnam. While anti-war activists are portrayed as unpatriotic and focused only on the negative, the project has proven to have a positive impact on veterans, serving as a visceral statement of the long-lasting effects of combat and as a catalyst for community discussion and activism. The art comes to us from all across this country with a special nod to the work from the Combat Paper Studio in Ithaca. A companion piece to the paper-making project is the Warrior Writers' Project where veterans are encouraged through workshops to write about their feelings since coming home. The words have been printed on hand-made combat paper and bound into books. This project provides an opportunity for veterans to come together and connect, reconcile and heal through sharing their words with each other. We will feature a Warrior Writers' event and journal making workshop with vets from Ithaca during the exhibition.

Onondaga County is a community that has been shaped by a legacy of bridges. In the context of the public discussion about what to do with the elevated section of I-81 in downtown Syracuse, it is important for the public to understand the history of the community's decision-making regarding its transportation infrastructure. The exhibit features photos, diagrams, and models of bridges and takes viewers through the rich heritage of turnpikes, canals, and railroads of Onondaga County. It also examines the post-World War II intersection of two great interstate highways, I-81 and the NYS Thruway.

Gallery Exhibit: David A. Ludwig, Structures Onondaga Community College
Price: Free Ann Felton Multicultural Center and Gallery
Onondaga Community College,
Syracuse
David Ludwig began his career as a painter and slowly evolved from two-dimensional color field paintings on canvas to three-dimensional wall reliefs or structures constructed of plywood. His work as a model builder for an architecture firm in Philadelphia had a major impact on his working method as well as on the direction his work would take. At first glance, Ludwig's colorful abstract structures are minimal in means. Closer observation reveals, however, each structure's complexity. Controlled completely, the artist sets up a dialogue between form, light, color and texture from the very beginning.

Fictional Reality and Radical Sanity: A Girl in Progress Syracuse Technology Garden Gallery

A solo show that celebrates the art of Syracuse-based Pop Surreal/Lowbrow painter Eugenia Mancini Horan. "Using fingers instead of brushes, my goal is to use color, subject, and simplicity to try to tap back into the psyche we had as children. The world was bold and vibrant. We were playful, devious, and mischievous without fear. And the world was ours, just ours, for the asking. Time teaches us to color in the lines; aging expects us to act like adults. I reject that stigma in my life and in my work," says Mancini.

John James Audubon and the American Landscape Syracuse University Library Special Collections Research Center
Price: Free Bird Library, 6th Floor
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
John James Audubon and the American Landscape showcases Syracuse University's copy of the rare double elephant folio The Birds of America. Printed in London and Edinburgh between 1827 and 1838, the work is a stunning visual catalog, featuring 435 plates depicting American bird life. The enterprise consumed much of Audubon's adult life and took him from the Pennsylvania woods to the Florida Keys and the Labrador coast. To its 19th-century audience, The Birds of America was much more than an ornithological inventory. It brought the exotic American wilderness into the drawing rooms and parlors of its wealthy subscribers. In 1896, former mayor of Syracuse and Syracuse University trustee James J. Welden donated a copy to the University. Today, The Birds of America is known for its extraordinary value, fetching more than ten million dollars at auction. The exhibition situates The Birds of America in the wider contexts of Audubon's life, 19th-century scientific knowledge, and a rapidly changing landscape that was becoming less exotic each day. Also on display are Alexander Wilson's American Ornithology (1808–14), Audubon's textual companion to The Birds of America (Ornithological Biography, 1831–49), and later volumes that speak to Audubon's legacy, such as first editions of Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species (1859) and Aldo Leopold's A Sand County Almanac and Sketches Here and There (1949). Syracuse University's copy of The Birds of America is disbound, which makes it possible for visitors to the exhibition to consider several different prints at once. Some of the engravings on display include the barn owl, Swainson's hawk, and the long-billed curlew, all of which depict American avian life against the backdrop of encroaching civilization.

He finds those peaceful refuges that are tucked in between the chaos and the hectic. Those bites of peace and nature that make living in Central New York worth all the rain, shoveling and construction!

Price: $10 regular, $8 students/seniors/military, $5 Everson members, $30 family (up to 2 adults & 4 children) Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
"An American Look" is a unique exhibition that, for the first time, examines the influence of an Arts & Crafts aesthetic in American fashion during the early 20th century. Color, texture and motif were all adapted from the Arts & Crafts elements of furniture, ceramics and other furnishings of the period for upper-class fashion. Clothing styles of 1910-1914 are particularly representative of the elegant simplicity of Arts and Crafts objects popular in the preceding decade. "An American Look" includes 34 examples from the Sue Ann Genet Costume Collection housed at Syracuse University, along with ceramics, Stickley furniture, and other decorative art examples from the Everson's permanent collection. The exhibition is co-curated by Jeffrey Mayer, curator of the Genet Costume Collection and associate professor of fashion design and history at Syracuse University, and Everson Museum Senior Curator Debora Ryan.

Combat Paper Redux ArtRage Gallery
Price: Free ArtRage Gallery
505 Hawley Ave.,
Syracuse
Celebrating our 5th Anniversary, we have brought "Combat Paper" back to Syracuse! An earlier version of this exhibit featuring images on paper made out of shredded combat uniforms was our Grand Opening exhibition in October 2008. The Combat Paper project began as art therapy utilizing paper as its medium and has been generating hope and inspiration for war veterans of Iraq, Afghanistan and yes...Vietnam. While anti-war activists are portrayed as unpatriotic and focused only on the negative, the project has proven to have a positive impact on veterans, serving as a visceral statement of the long-lasting effects of combat and as a catalyst for community discussion and activism. The art comes to us from all across this country with a special nod to the work from the Combat Paper Studio in Ithaca. A companion piece to the paper-making project is the Warrior Writers' Project where veterans are encouraged through workshops to write about their feelings since coming home. The words have been printed on hand-made combat paper and bound into books. This project provides an opportunity for veterans to come together and connect, reconcile and heal through sharing their words with each other. We will feature a Warrior Writers' event and journal making workshop with vets from Ithaca during the exhibition.

Platonic: Dani Leventhal Urban Video Project
Everson Museum of Art Plaza
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
In Dani Leventhal's Platonic, geometric specters twirl in space; pet cats foam at the mouth; a little boy mistakes his junkie dad for a superhero; and a confused adolescent worries he has sired a centaur. Platonic references both the ancient philosopher's metaphysics of ideal Forms, which simultaneously exist outside our perceptions and yet give rise to them, and the related meaning in common parlance of non-romantic love. Leventhal trains her searching lens on the distance separating bodies, moments, and perspectives. The result is a study in the awkward gaps between appearance and reality, seeing and understanding, desire and its object. (21:33 minutes)

Gallery Exhibit: David A. Ludwig, Structures Onondaga Community College
Price: Free Ann Felton Multicultural Center and Gallery
Onondaga Community College,
Syracuse
David Ludwig began his career as a painter and slowly evolved from two-dimensional color field paintings on canvas to three-dimensional wall reliefs or structures constructed of plywood. His work as a model builder for an architecture firm in Philadelphia had a major impact on his working method as well as on the direction his work would take. At first glance, Ludwig's colorful abstract structures are minimal in means. Closer observation reveals, however, each structure's complexity. Controlled completely, the artist sets up a dialogue between form, light, color and texture from the very beginning.

Fictional Reality and Radical Sanity: A Girl in Progress Syracuse Technology Garden Gallery

235 Harrison St.,

A solo show that celebrates the art of Syracuse-based Pop Surreal/Lowbrow painter Eugenia Mancini Horan. "Using fingers instead of brushes, my goal is to use color, subject, and simplicity to try to tap back into the psyche we had as children. The world was bold and vibrant. We were playful, devious, and mischievous without fear. And the world was ours, just ours, for the asking. Time teaches us to color in the lines; aging expects us to act like adults. I reject that stigma in my life and in my work," says Mancini.

John James Audubon and the American Landscape Syracuse University Library Special Collections Research Center
Price: Free Bird Library, 6th Floor
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
John James Audubon and the American Landscape showcases Syracuse University's copy of the rare double elephant folio The Birds of America. Printed in London and Edinburgh between 1827 and 1838, the work is a stunning visual catalog, featuring 435 plates depicting American bird life. The enterprise consumed much of Audubon's adult life and took him from the Pennsylvania woods to the Florida Keys and the Labrador coast. To its 19th-century audience, The Birds of America was much more than an ornithological inventory. It brought the exotic American wilderness into the drawing rooms and parlors of its wealthy subscribers. In 1896, former mayor of Syracuse and Syracuse University trustee James J. Welden donated a copy to the University. Today, The Birds of America is known for its extraordinary value, fetching more than ten million dollars at auction. The exhibition situates The Birds of America in the wider contexts of Audubon's life, 19th-century scientific knowledge, and a rapidly changing landscape that was becoming less exotic each day. Also on display are Alexander Wilson's American Ornithology (1808–14), Audubon's textual companion to The Birds of America (Ornithological Biography, 1831–49), and later volumes that speak to Audubon's legacy, such as first editions of Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species (1859) and Aldo Leopold's A Sand County Almanac and Sketches Here and There (1949). Syracuse University's copy of The Birds of America is disbound, which makes it possible for visitors to the exhibition to consider several different prints at once. Some of the engravings on display include the barn owl, Swainson's hawk, and the long-billed curlew, all of which depict American avian life against the backdrop of encroaching civilization.

He finds those peaceful refuges that are tucked in between the chaos and the hectic. Those bites of peace and nature that make living in Central New York worth all the rain, shoveling and construction!

Marna Bell: Imperfect Memories Light Work Gallery
Light Work Gallery
316 Waverly Ave., Syracuse University,
Syracuse
With "Imperfect Memories" Marna Bell returns to some of the familiar themes of her Hudson Past/Perfect series. "In both projects," Bell explains, "my subjects are put into a motion blur, not only to allude to the passage of time, but more so, to the fading of memories. In addition, the motion gives the work a more painterly effect; the slow shutter speed creates a haunting quality." While the windows of the train create the parameters in the Hudson series, in "Imperfect Memories," the camera is set up before a flickering screen. In both cases, the camera captures pieces of information sometimes unseen by the human eye. Like memory, these photographs document feelings more than actual events. The figures are familiar and foreboding — even nightmarish. These images represent narratives that are both true and half true; some dimly recalled and some totally forgotten. Bell writes, "My work reminds us that memories morph and change over time and that we are limited in how much of the past we can retain, retrieve or understand."

International Art from the Permanent Collection Syracuse University Art Museum
Price: Free Syracuse University Art Museum, Shaffer Art Building
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
Highlighting the breadth of the collections' encyclopedic holdings and exploring international artists and themes, these new displays explore the genres of photography, prints, paintings and sculpture. Two of the exhibitions on display in the Print and Photo Study Galleries will highlight the University's vast holdings of historical Japanese photographs and prints. The third exhibition will examine artwork created by international artists who have immigrated to the United States. America's Calling, presented in the Gallery of American Art, is an exhibition of 16 works of art by 15 foreign-born artists, including Ben Shahn, Yasuo Kuniyoshi, and Josef Albers. The artists included in the exhibition, or their families, were drawn to the United States because it offered opportunities unavailable in their homelands. A variety of media is presented in the display, including painting, ceramics, sculpture and printmaking that are handled using often innovative techniques. Cumulatively, these artists had a profound and permanent effect on the evolution of American art. The Photo Study Room will present Visions for Sale: Photographs of Nineteenth Century Japan, an exhibition of 22 hand-colored albumen prints from the 19th century exploring the country's people, land and environment that was quickly changing due to modernization. European photographers such as Felice Beato and Baron Raimond Stillfield traveled to Japan to document the nation's exotic landscape and historically idiosyncratic jobs before they were swept away by the tide of modernism. Ukiyo-e to Shin Hanga: Japanese Woodcuts from the Syracuse University Art Collection will be installed in the Print Study Room and draws from the University's collection of over 300 examples from this important and hugely influential art movement. The prints on view date from the height of color Ukiyo-e printmaking (c1780-1868) through Japan's Meiji period (1868-1912) to 20th century impressions of the Shin Hanga movement (1915-1940s). Masters of this medium are represented, including the work of Utamaro, Kuniyoshi, Hokusai, Hiroshida, Tsuchiya Koitsu and Yoshida Hiroshi. The prints exemplify the soft, painterly style that is synonymous with the Japanese woodcut, and illustrates the wide range of subjects from courtesans to Kabuki theater and the Japanese landscape.

Henninger Art Class: Voices Heard and Celebrated Syracuse University Art Museum
Syracuse University Art Museum, Shaffer Art Building
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
This exhibition of artwork by Henninger High School students in the Syracuse City School district was inspired by the exhibition Nyumba ya Sanaa: Works from the Maryknoll Collection. This display of 18 works of student art is the result of community collaboration between SUArt Galleries Director Domenic Iacono, Henninger High School Art Teacher Lori Lizzio, and Stephen Mahan of the Photography and Literacy (P.A.L.) Project. This past spring P.A.L Project partnered with SUArt Galleries and Lori Lizzio's art class from Henninger High School to create artwork that could be used in an exhibition. The Maryknoll Collection, housed in the University Art Collection, inspired the students' artwork. This collection, recently acquired from Nyumba ya Sanaa (School of Art) in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, served as a creative springboard and inspiration to document what they felt were distinctive moments from their daily lives. Using simple point and shoot cameras and basic Photoshop skills, the students highlighted personally meaningful moments, scenes or people of their daily lives; much as the Tanzanian artists had done when making their art.

The Invisible War (2012) ArtRage Gallery
Price: Free ArtRage Gallery
505 Hawley Ave.,
Syracuse
From Oscar and Emmy nominated filmmaker Kirby Dick comes The Invisible War, a groundbreaking investigative documentary about one of America's most shameful and best kept secrets: the epidemic of rape within the U.S. military. The film paints a startling picture of the extent of the problem—today, a female soldier in combat zones is more likely to be raped by a fellow soldier than killed by enemy fire. The Department of Defense estimates there were a staggering 22,800 violent sex crimes in the military in 2011. 20% of all active-duty female soldiers are sexually assaulted. Female soldiers aged 18 to 21 accounted for more than half of the victims. Focusing on the powerfully emotional stories of rape victims, The Invisible War is a moving indictment of the systemic cover-up of military sex crimes, chronicling the women's struggles to rebuild their lives and fight for justice. It also features hard-hitting interviews with high-ranking military officials and members of Congress that reveal the perfect storm of conditions that exist for rape in the military, its long-hidden history, and what can be done to bring about much-needed change. Representatives from VERA House and the Veterans Administration Sexual Assault and Suicide Prevention division will be present.

The Birthday Party Appleseed Productions John Brackett, director
Atonement Lutheran Church
116 W. Glen Ave.,
Syracuse
At a sleepy seaside boarding house, the humdrum routine of corn flakes, newspapers and naps is interrupted by the appearance of two mysterious strangers. Harold Pinter was a director, actor and one of the most influential modern British dramatists, winning the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2005. This celebrated, ultimately undefinable classic derives its power from Pinter's brilliantly mysterious yet comic riff on the absurd terrors of the everyday.

An American Look: Fashion, Decorative Arts and Gustav Stickley Everson Museum of Art
Price: $10 regular, $8 students/seniors/military, $5 Everson members, $30 family (up to 2 adults & 4 children) Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
"An American Look" is a unique exhibition that, for the first time, examines the influence of an Arts & Crafts aesthetic in American fashion during the early 20th century. Color, texture and motif were all adapted from the Arts & Crafts elements of furniture, ceramics and other furnishings of the period for upper-class fashion. Clothing styles of 1910-1914 are particularly representative of the elegant simplicity of Arts and Crafts objects popular in the preceding decade. "An American Look" includes 34 examples from the Sue Ann Genet Costume Collection housed at Syracuse University, along with ceramics, Stickley furniture, and other decorative art examples from the Everson's permanent collection. The exhibition is co-curated by Jeffrey Mayer, curator of the Genet Costume Collection and associate professor of fashion design and history at Syracuse University, and Everson Museum Senior Curator Debora Ryan.

He finds those peaceful refuges that are tucked in between the chaos and the hectic. Those bites of peace and nature that make living in Central New York worth all the rain, shoveling and construction!

Henninger Art Class: Voices Heard and Celebrated Syracuse University Art Museum
Syracuse University Art Museum, Shaffer Art Building
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
This exhibition of artwork by Henninger High School students in the Syracuse City School district was inspired by the exhibition Nyumba ya Sanaa: Works from the Maryknoll Collection. This display of 18 works of student art is the result of community collaboration between SUArt Galleries Director Domenic Iacono, Henninger High School Art Teacher Lori Lizzio, and Stephen Mahan of the Photography and Literacy (P.A.L.) Project. This past spring P.A.L Project partnered with SUArt Galleries and Lori Lizzio's art class from Henninger High School to create artwork that could be used in an exhibition. The Maryknoll Collection, housed in the University Art Collection, inspired the students' artwork. This collection, recently acquired from Nyumba ya Sanaa (School of Art) in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, served as a creative springboard and inspiration to document what they felt were distinctive moments from their daily lives. Using simple point and shoot cameras and basic Photoshop skills, the students highlighted personally meaningful moments, scenes or people of their daily lives; much as the Tanzanian artists had done when making their art.

International Art from the Permanent Collection Syracuse University Art Museum
Price: Free Syracuse University Art Museum, Shaffer Art Building
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
Highlighting the breadth of the collections' encyclopedic holdings and exploring international artists and themes, these new displays explore the genres of photography, prints, paintings and sculpture. Two of the exhibitions on display in the Print and Photo Study Galleries will highlight the University's vast holdings of historical Japanese photographs and prints. The third exhibition will examine artwork created by international artists who have immigrated to the United States. America's Calling, presented in the Gallery of American Art, is an exhibition of 16 works of art by 15 foreign-born artists, including Ben Shahn, Yasuo Kuniyoshi, and Josef Albers. The artists included in the exhibition, or their families, were drawn to the United States because it offered opportunities unavailable in their homelands. A variety of media is presented in the display, including painting, ceramics, sculpture and printmaking that are handled using often innovative techniques. Cumulatively, these artists had a profound and permanent effect on the evolution of American art. The Photo Study Room will present Visions for Sale: Photographs of Nineteenth Century Japan, an exhibition of 22 hand-colored albumen prints from the 19th century exploring the country's people, land and environment that was quickly changing due to modernization. European photographers such as Felice Beato and Baron Raimond Stillfield traveled to Japan to document the nation's exotic landscape and historically idiosyncratic jobs before they were swept away by the tide of modernism. Ukiyo-e to Shin Hanga: Japanese Woodcuts from the Syracuse University Art Collection will be installed in the Print Study Room and draws from the University's collection of over 300 examples from this important and hugely influential art movement. The prints on view date from the height of color Ukiyo-e printmaking (c1780-1868) through Japan's Meiji period (1868-1912) to 20th century impressions of the Shin Hanga movement (1915-1940s). Masters of this medium are represented, including the work of Utamaro, Kuniyoshi, Hokusai, Hiroshida, Tsuchiya Koitsu and Yoshida Hiroshi. The prints exemplify the soft, painterly style that is synonymous with the Japanese woodcut, and illustrates the wide range of subjects from courtesans to Kabuki theater and the Japanese landscape.

Combat Paper Redux ArtRage Gallery
Price: Free ArtRage Gallery
505 Hawley Ave.,
Syracuse
Celebrating our 5th Anniversary, we have brought "Combat Paper" back to Syracuse! An earlier version of this exhibit featuring images on paper made out of shredded combat uniforms was our Grand Opening exhibition in October 2008. The Combat Paper project began as art therapy utilizing paper as its medium and has been generating hope and inspiration for war veterans of Iraq, Afghanistan and yes...Vietnam. While anti-war activists are portrayed as unpatriotic and focused only on the negative, the project has proven to have a positive impact on veterans, serving as a visceral statement of the long-lasting effects of combat and as a catalyst for community discussion and activism. The art comes to us from all across this country with a special nod to the work from the Combat Paper Studio in Ithaca. A companion piece to the paper-making project is the Warrior Writers' Project where veterans are encouraged through workshops to write about their feelings since coming home. The words have been printed on hand-made combat paper and bound into books. This project provides an opportunity for veterans to come together and connect, reconcile and heal through sharing their words with each other. We will feature a Warrior Writers' event and journal making workshop with vets from Ithaca during the exhibition.

Platonic: Dani Leventhal Urban Video Project
Everson Museum of Art Plaza
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
In Dani Leventhal's Platonic, geometric specters twirl in space; pet cats foam at the mouth; a little boy mistakes his junkie dad for a superhero; and a confused adolescent worries he has sired a centaur. Platonic references both the ancient philosopher's metaphysics of ideal Forms, which simultaneously exist outside our perceptions and yet give rise to them, and the related meaning in common parlance of non-romantic love. Leventhal trains her searching lens on the distance separating bodies, moments, and perspectives. The result is a study in the awkward gaps between appearance and reality, seeing and understanding, desire and its object. (21:33 minutes)

Marna Bell: Imperfect Memories Light Work Gallery
Light Work Gallery
316 Waverly Ave., Syracuse University,
Syracuse
With "Imperfect Memories" Marna Bell returns to some of the familiar themes of her Hudson Past/Perfect series. "In both projects," Bell explains, "my subjects are put into a motion blur, not only to allude to the passage of time, but more so, to the fading of memories. In addition, the motion gives the work a more painterly effect; the slow shutter speed creates a haunting quality." While the windows of the train create the parameters in the Hudson series, in "Imperfect Memories," the camera is set up before a flickering screen. In both cases, the camera captures pieces of information sometimes unseen by the human eye. Like memory, these photographs document feelings more than actual events. The figures are familiar and foreboding — even nightmarish. These images represent narratives that are both true and half true; some dimly recalled and some totally forgotten. Bell writes, "My work reminds us that memories morph and change over time and that we are limited in how much of the past we can retain, retrieve or understand."

Henninger Art Class: Voices Heard and Celebrated Syracuse University Art Museum
Syracuse University Art Museum, Shaffer Art Building
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
This exhibition of artwork by Henninger High School students in the Syracuse City School district was inspired by the exhibition Nyumba ya Sanaa: Works from the Maryknoll Collection. This display of 18 works of student art is the result of community collaboration between SUArt Galleries Director Domenic Iacono, Henninger High School Art Teacher Lori Lizzio, and Stephen Mahan of the Photography and Literacy (P.A.L.) Project. This past spring P.A.L Project partnered with SUArt Galleries and Lori Lizzio's art class from Henninger High School to create artwork that could be used in an exhibition. The Maryknoll Collection, housed in the University Art Collection, inspired the students' artwork. This collection, recently acquired from Nyumba ya Sanaa (School of Art) in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, served as a creative springboard and inspiration to document what they felt were distinctive moments from their daily lives. Using simple point and shoot cameras and basic Photoshop skills, the students highlighted personally meaningful moments, scenes or people of their daily lives; much as the Tanzanian artists had done when making their art.

International Art from the Permanent Collection Syracuse University Art Museum
Price: Free Syracuse University Art Museum, Shaffer Art Building
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
Highlighting the breadth of the collections' encyclopedic holdings and exploring international artists and themes, these new displays explore the genres of photography, prints, paintings and sculpture. Two of the exhibitions on display in the Print and Photo Study Galleries will highlight the University's vast holdings of historical Japanese photographs and prints. The third exhibition will examine artwork created by international artists who have immigrated to the United States. America's Calling, presented in the Gallery of American Art, is an exhibition of 16 works of art by 15 foreign-born artists, including Ben Shahn, Yasuo Kuniyoshi, and Josef Albers. The artists included in the exhibition, or their families, were drawn to the United States because it offered opportunities unavailable in their homelands. A variety of media is presented in the display, including painting, ceramics, sculpture and printmaking that are handled using often innovative techniques. Cumulatively, these artists had a profound and permanent effect on the evolution of American art. The Photo Study Room will present Visions for Sale: Photographs of Nineteenth Century Japan, an exhibition of 22 hand-colored albumen prints from the 19th century exploring the country's people, land and environment that was quickly changing due to modernization. European photographers such as Felice Beato and Baron Raimond Stillfield traveled to Japan to document the nation's exotic landscape and historically idiosyncratic jobs before they were swept away by the tide of modernism. Ukiyo-e to Shin Hanga: Japanese Woodcuts from the Syracuse University Art Collection will be installed in the Print Study Room and draws from the University's collection of over 300 examples from this important and hugely influential art movement. The prints on view date from the height of color Ukiyo-e printmaking (c1780-1868) through Japan's Meiji period (1868-1912) to 20th century impressions of the Shin Hanga movement (1915-1940s). Masters of this medium are represented, including the work of Utamaro, Kuniyoshi, Hokusai, Hiroshida, Tsuchiya Koitsu and Yoshida Hiroshi. The prints exemplify the soft, painterly style that is synonymous with the Japanese woodcut, and illustrates the wide range of subjects from courtesans to Kabuki theater and the Japanese landscape.

Combat Paper Redux ArtRage Gallery
Price: Free ArtRage Gallery
505 Hawley Ave.,
Syracuse
Celebrating our 5th Anniversary, we have brought "Combat Paper" back to Syracuse! An earlier version of this exhibit featuring images on paper made out of shredded combat uniforms was our Grand Opening exhibition in October 2008. The Combat Paper project began as art therapy utilizing paper as its medium and has been generating hope and inspiration for war veterans of Iraq, Afghanistan and yes...Vietnam. While anti-war activists are portrayed as unpatriotic and focused only on the negative, the project has proven to have a positive impact on veterans, serving as a visceral statement of the long-lasting effects of combat and as a catalyst for community discussion and activism. The art comes to us from all across this country with a special nod to the work from the Combat Paper Studio in Ithaca. A companion piece to the paper-making project is the Warrior Writers' Project where veterans are encouraged through workshops to write about their feelings since coming home. The words have been printed on hand-made combat paper and bound into books. This project provides an opportunity for veterans to come together and connect, reconcile and heal through sharing their words with each other. We will feature a Warrior Writers' event and journal making workshop with vets from Ithaca during the exhibition.

An American Look: Fashion, Decorative Arts and Gustav Stickley Everson Museum of Art
Price: $10 regular, $8 students/seniors/military, $5 Everson members, $30 family (up to 2 adults & 4 children) Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
"An American Look" is a unique exhibition that, for the first time, examines the influence of an Arts & Crafts aesthetic in American fashion during the early 20th century. Color, texture and motif were all adapted from the Arts & Crafts elements of furniture, ceramics and other furnishings of the period for upper-class fashion. Clothing styles of 1910-1914 are particularly representative of the elegant simplicity of Arts and Crafts objects popular in the preceding decade. "An American Look" includes 34 examples from the Sue Ann Genet Costume Collection housed at Syracuse University, along with ceramics, Stickley furniture, and other decorative art examples from the Everson's permanent collection. The exhibition is co-curated by Jeffrey Mayer, curator of the Genet Costume Collection and associate professor of fashion design and history at Syracuse University, and Everson Museum Senior Curator Debora Ryan.

Gallery Exhibit: David A. Ludwig, Structures Onondaga Community College
Price: Free Ann Felton Multicultural Center and Gallery
Onondaga Community College,
Syracuse
David Ludwig began his career as a painter and slowly evolved from two-dimensional color field paintings on canvas to three-dimensional wall reliefs or structures constructed of plywood. His work as a model builder for an architecture firm in Philadelphia had a major impact on his working method as well as on the direction his work would take. At first glance, Ludwig's colorful abstract structures are minimal in means. Closer observation reveals, however, each structure's complexity. Controlled completely, the artist sets up a dialogue between form, light, color and texture from the very beginning.

A solo show that celebrates the art of Syracuse-based Pop Surreal/Lowbrow painter Eugenia Mancini Horan. "Using fingers instead of brushes, my goal is to use color, subject, and simplicity to try to tap back into the psyche we had as children. The world was bold and vibrant. We were playful, devious, and mischievous without fear. And the world was ours, just ours, for the asking. Time teaches us to color in the lines; aging expects us to act like adults. I reject that stigma in my life and in my work," says Mancini.

John James Audubon and the American Landscape Syracuse University Library Special Collections Research Center
Price: Free Bird Library, 6th Floor
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
John James Audubon and the American Landscape showcases Syracuse University's copy of the rare double elephant folio The Birds of America. Printed in London and Edinburgh between 1827 and 1838, the work is a stunning visual catalog, featuring 435 plates depicting American bird life. The enterprise consumed much of Audubon's adult life and took him from the Pennsylvania woods to the Florida Keys and the Labrador coast. To its 19th-century audience, The Birds of America was much more than an ornithological inventory. It brought the exotic American wilderness into the drawing rooms and parlors of its wealthy subscribers. In 1896, former mayor of Syracuse and Syracuse University trustee James J. Welden donated a copy to the University. Today, The Birds of America is known for its extraordinary value, fetching more than ten million dollars at auction. The exhibition situates The Birds of America in the wider contexts of Audubon's life, 19th-century scientific knowledge, and a rapidly changing landscape that was becoming less exotic each day. Also on display are Alexander Wilson's American Ornithology (1808–14), Audubon's textual companion to The Birds of America (Ornithological Biography, 1831–49), and later volumes that speak to Audubon's legacy, such as first editions of Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species (1859) and Aldo Leopold's A Sand County Almanac and Sketches Here and There (1949). Syracuse University's copy of The Birds of America is disbound, which makes it possible for visitors to the exhibition to consider several different prints at once. Some of the engravings on display include the barn owl, Swainson's hawk, and the long-billed curlew, all of which depict American avian life against the backdrop of encroaching civilization.

He finds those peaceful refuges that are tucked in between the chaos and the hectic. Those bites of peace and nature that make living in Central New York worth all the rain, shoveling and construction!

Marna Bell: Imperfect Memories Light Work Gallery
Light Work Gallery
316 Waverly Ave., Syracuse University,
Syracuse
With "Imperfect Memories" Marna Bell returns to some of the familiar themes of her Hudson Past/Perfect series. "In both projects," Bell explains, "my subjects are put into a motion blur, not only to allude to the passage of time, but more so, to the fading of memories. In addition, the motion gives the work a more painterly effect; the slow shutter speed creates a haunting quality." While the windows of the train create the parameters in the Hudson series, in "Imperfect Memories," the camera is set up before a flickering screen. In both cases, the camera captures pieces of information sometimes unseen by the human eye. Like memory, these photographs document feelings more than actual events. The figures are familiar and foreboding — even nightmarish. These images represent narratives that are both true and half true; some dimly recalled and some totally forgotten. Bell writes, "My work reminds us that memories morph and change over time and that we are limited in how much of the past we can retain, retrieve or understand."

Gallery Exhibit: David A. Ludwig, Structures Onondaga Community College
Price: Free Ann Felton Multicultural Center and Gallery
Onondaga Community College,
Syracuse
David Ludwig began his career as a painter and slowly evolved from two-dimensional color field paintings on canvas to three-dimensional wall reliefs or structures constructed of plywood. His work as a model builder for an architecture firm in Philadelphia had a major impact on his working method as well as on the direction his work would take. At first glance, Ludwig's colorful abstract structures are minimal in means. Closer observation reveals, however, each structure's complexity. Controlled completely, the artist sets up a dialogue between form, light, color and texture from the very beginning.

"Using fingers instead of brushes, my goal is to use color, subject, and simplicity to try to tap back into the psyche we had as children. The world was bold and vibrant. We were playful, devious, and mischievous without fear. And the world was ours, just ours, for the asking. Time teaches us to color in the lines; aging expects us to act like adults. I reject that stigma in my life and in my work," says Mancini.

John James Audubon and the American Landscape Syracuse University Library Special Collections Research Center
Price: Free Bird Library, 6th Floor
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
John James Audubon and the American Landscape showcases Syracuse University's copy of the rare double elephant folio The Birds of America. Printed in London and Edinburgh between 1827 and 1838, the work is a stunning visual catalog, featuring 435 plates depicting American bird life. The enterprise consumed much of Audubon's adult life and took him from the Pennsylvania woods to the Florida Keys and the Labrador coast. To its 19th-century audience, The Birds of America was much more than an ornithological inventory. It brought the exotic American wilderness into the drawing rooms and parlors of its wealthy subscribers. In 1896, former mayor of Syracuse and Syracuse University trustee James J. Welden donated a copy to the University. Today, The Birds of America is known for its extraordinary value, fetching more than ten million dollars at auction. The exhibition situates The Birds of America in the wider contexts of Audubon's life, 19th-century scientific knowledge, and a rapidly changing landscape that was becoming less exotic each day. Also on display are Alexander Wilson's American Ornithology (1808–14), Audubon's textual companion to The Birds of America (Ornithological Biography, 1831–49), and later volumes that speak to Audubon's legacy, such as first editions of Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species (1859) and Aldo Leopold's A Sand County Almanac and Sketches Here and There (1949). Syracuse University's copy of The Birds of America is disbound, which makes it possible for visitors to the exhibition to consider several different prints at once. Some of the engravings on display include the barn owl, Swainson's hawk, and the long-billed curlew, all of which depict American avian life against the backdrop of encroaching civilization.

Ray is a lifelong local resident whom describes himself as a disgruntled union thug... a better description might be a man who thinks for himself, lives life to his own beat and in his own unique skewed style shows us the way he sees life, through the lens of his camera. He finds those peaceful refuges that are tucked in between the chaos and the hectic. Those bites of peace and nature that make living in Central New York worth all the rain, shoveling and construction!

International Art from the Permanent Collection Syracuse University Art Museum
Price: Free Syracuse University Art Museum, Shaffer Art Building
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
Highlighting the breadth of the collections' encyclopedic holdings and exploring international artists and themes, these new displays explore the genres of photography, prints, paintings and sculpture. Two of the exhibitions on display in the Print and Photo Study Galleries will highlight the University's vast holdings of historical Japanese photographs and prints. The third exhibition will examine artwork created by international artists who have immigrated to the United States. America's Calling, presented in the Gallery of American Art, is an exhibition of 16 works of art by 15 foreign-born artists, including Ben Shahn, Yasuo Kuniyoshi, and Josef Albers. The artists included in the exhibition, or their families, were drawn to the United States because it offered opportunities unavailable in their homelands. A variety of media is presented in the display, including painting, ceramics, sculpture and printmaking that are handled using often innovative techniques. Cumulatively, these artists had a profound and permanent effect on the evolution of American art. The Photo Study Room will present Visions for Sale: Photographs of Nineteenth Century Japan, an exhibition of 22 hand-colored albumen prints from the 19th century exploring the country's people, land and environment that was quickly changing due to modernization. European photographers such as Felice Beato and Baron Raimond Stillfield traveled to Japan to document the nation's exotic landscape and historically idiosyncratic jobs before they were swept away by the tide of modernism. Ukiyo-e to Shin Hanga: Japanese Woodcuts from the Syracuse University Art Collection will be installed in the Print Study Room and draws from the University's collection of over 300 examples from this important and hugely influential art movement. The prints on view date from the height of color Ukiyo-e printmaking (c1780-1868) through Japan's Meiji period (1868-1912) to 20th century impressions of the Shin Hanga movement (1915-1940s). Masters of this medium are represented, including the work of Utamaro, Kuniyoshi, Hokusai, Hiroshida, Tsuchiya Koitsu and Yoshida Hiroshi. The prints exemplify the soft, painterly style that is synonymous with the Japanese woodcut, and illustrates the wide range of subjects from courtesans to Kabuki theater and the Japanese landscape.

Henninger Art Class: Voices Heard and Celebrated Syracuse University Art Museum
Syracuse University Art Museum, Shaffer Art Building
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
This exhibition of artwork by Henninger High School students in the Syracuse City School district was inspired by the exhibition Nyumba ya Sanaa: Works from the Maryknoll Collection. This display of 18 works of student art is the result of community collaboration between SUArt Galleries Director Domenic Iacono, Henninger High School Art Teacher Lori Lizzio, and Stephen Mahan of the Photography and Literacy (P.A.L.) Project. This past spring P.A.L Project partnered with SUArt Galleries and Lori Lizzio's art class from Henninger High School to create artwork that could be used in an exhibition. The Maryknoll Collection, housed in the University Art Collection, inspired the students' artwork. This collection, recently acquired from Nyumba ya Sanaa (School of Art) in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, served as a creative springboard and inspiration to document what they felt were distinctive moments from their daily lives. Using simple point and shoot cameras and basic Photoshop skills, the students highlighted personally meaningful moments, scenes or people of their daily lives; much as the Tanzanian artists had done when making their art.

401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
"An American Look" is a unique exhibition that, for the first time, examines the influence of an Arts & Crafts aesthetic in American fashion during the early 20th century. Color, texture and motif were all adapted from the Arts & Crafts elements of furniture, ceramics and other furnishings of the period for upper-class fashion. Clothing styles of 1910-1914 are particularly representative of the elegant simplicity of Arts and Crafts objects popular in the preceding decade. "An American Look" includes 34 examples from the Sue Ann Genet Costume Collection housed at Syracuse University, along with ceramics, Stickley furniture, and other decorative art examples from the Everson's permanent collection. The exhibition is co-curated by Jeffrey Mayer, curator of the Genet Costume Collection and associate professor of fashion design and history at Syracuse University, and Everson Museum Senior Curator Debora Ryan.

Also on display are Alexander Wilson's American Ornithology (1808–14), Audubon's textual companion to The Birds of America (Ornithological Biography, 1831–49), and later volumes that speak to Audubon's legacy, such as first editions of Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species (1859) and Aldo Leopold's A Sand County Almanac and Sketches Here and There (1949). Syracuse University's copy of The Birds of America is disbound, which makes it possible for visitors to the exhibition to consider several different prints at once. Some of the engravings on display include the barn owl, Swainson's hawk, and the long-billed curlew, all of which depict American avian life against the backdrop of encroaching civilization.

Marna Bell: Imperfect Memories Light Work Gallery
Light Work Gallery
316 Waverly Ave., Syracuse University,
Syracuse
With "Imperfect Memories" Marna Bell returns to some of the familiar themes of her Hudson Past/Perfect series. "In both projects," Bell explains, "my subjects are put into a motion blur, not only to allude to the passage of time, but more so, to the fading of memories. In addition, the motion gives the work a more painterly effect; the slow shutter speed creates a haunting quality." While the windows of the train create the parameters in the Hudson series, in "Imperfect Memories," the camera is set up before a flickering screen. In both cases, the camera captures pieces of information sometimes unseen by the human eye. Like memory, these photographs document feelings more than actual events. The figures are familiar and foreboding — even nightmarish. These images represent narratives that are both true and half true; some dimly recalled and some totally forgotten. Bell writes, "My work reminds us that memories morph and change over time and that we are limited in how much of the past we can retain, retrieve or understand."

International Art from the Permanent Collection Syracuse University Art Museum
Price: Free Syracuse University Art Museum, Shaffer Art Building
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
Highlighting the breadth of the collections' encyclopedic holdings and exploring international artists and themes, these new displays explore the genres of photography, prints, paintings and sculpture. Two of the exhibitions on display in the Print and Photo Study Galleries will highlight the University's vast holdings of historical Japanese photographs and prints. The third exhibition will examine artwork created by international artists who have immigrated to the United States. America's Calling, presented in the Gallery of American Art, is an exhibition of 16 works of art by 15 foreign-born artists, including Ben Shahn, Yasuo Kuniyoshi, and Josef Albers. The artists included in the exhibition, or their families, were drawn to the United States because it offered opportunities unavailable in their homelands. A variety of media is presented in the display, including painting, ceramics, sculpture and printmaking that are handled using often innovative techniques. Cumulatively, these artists had a profound and permanent effect on the evolution of American art. The Photo Study Room will present Visions for Sale: Photographs of Nineteenth Century Japan, an exhibition of 22 hand-colored albumen prints from the 19th century exploring the country's people, land and environment that was quickly changing due to modernization. European photographers such as Felice Beato and Baron Raimond Stillfield traveled to Japan to document the nation's exotic landscape and historically idiosyncratic jobs before they were swept away by the tide of modernism. Ukiyo-e to Shin Hanga: Japanese Woodcuts from the Syracuse University Art Collection will be installed in the Print Study Room and draws from the University's collection of over 300 examples from this important and hugely influential art movement. The prints on view date from the height of color Ukiyo-e printmaking (c1780-1868) through Japan's Meiji period (1868-1912) to 20th century impressions of the Shin Hanga movement (1915-1940s). Masters of this medium are represented, including the work of Utamaro, Kuniyoshi, Hokusai, Hiroshida, Tsuchiya Koitsu and Yoshida Hiroshi. The prints exemplify the soft, painterly style that is synonymous with the Japanese woodcut, and illustrates the wide range of subjects from courtesans to Kabuki theater and the Japanese landscape.

Henninger Art Class: Voices Heard and Celebrated Syracuse University Art Museum
Syracuse University Art Museum, Shaffer Art Building
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
This exhibition of artwork by Henninger High School students in the Syracuse City School district was inspired by the exhibition Nyumba ya Sanaa: Works from the Maryknoll Collection. This display of 18 works of student art is the result of community collaboration between SUArt Galleries Director Domenic Iacono, Henninger High School Art Teacher Lori Lizzio, and Stephen Mahan of the Photography and Literacy (P.A.L.) Project. This past spring P.A.L Project partnered with SUArt Galleries and Lori Lizzio's art class from Henninger High School to create artwork that could be used in an exhibition. The Maryknoll Collection, housed in the University Art Collection, inspired the students' artwork. This collection, recently acquired from Nyumba ya Sanaa (School of Art) in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, served as a creative springboard and inspiration to document what they felt were distinctive moments from their daily lives. Using simple point and shoot cameras and basic Photoshop skills, the students highlighted personally meaningful moments, scenes or people of their daily lives; much as the Tanzanian artists had done when making their art.

An American Look: Fashion, Decorative Arts and Gustav Stickley Everson Museum of Art
Price: $10 regular, $8 students/seniors/military, $5 Everson members, $30 family (up to 2 adults & 4 children) Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
"An American Look" is a unique exhibition that, for the first time, examines the influence of an Arts & Crafts aesthetic in American fashion during the early 20th century. Color, texture and motif were all adapted from the Arts & Crafts elements of furniture, ceramics and other furnishings of the period for upper-class fashion. Clothing styles of 1910-1914 are particularly representative of the elegant simplicity of Arts and Crafts objects popular in the preceding decade. "An American Look" includes 34 examples from the Sue Ann Genet Costume Collection housed at Syracuse University, along with ceramics, Stickley furniture, and other decorative art examples from the Everson's permanent collection. The exhibition is co-curated by Jeffrey Mayer, curator of the Genet Costume Collection and associate professor of fashion design and history at Syracuse University, and Everson Museum Senior Curator Debora Ryan.

Combat Paper Redux ArtRage Gallery
Price: Free ArtRage Gallery
505 Hawley Ave.,
Syracuse
Celebrating our 5th Anniversary, we have brought "Combat Paper" back to Syracuse! An earlier version of this exhibit featuring images on paper made out of shredded combat uniforms was our Grand Opening exhibition in October 2008. The Combat Paper project began as art therapy utilizing paper as its medium and has been generating hope and inspiration for war veterans of Iraq, Afghanistan and yes...Vietnam. While anti-war activists are portrayed as unpatriotic and focused only on the negative, the project has proven to have a positive impact on veterans, serving as a visceral statement of the long-lasting effects of combat and as a catalyst for community discussion and activism. The art comes to us from all across this country with a special nod to the work from the Combat Paper Studio in Ithaca. A companion piece to the paper-making project is the Warrior Writers' Project where veterans are encouraged through workshops to write about their feelings since coming home. The words have been printed on hand-made combat paper and bound into books. This project provides an opportunity for veterans to come together and connect, reconcile and heal through sharing their words with each other. We will feature a Warrior Writers' event and journal making workshop with vets from Ithaca during the exhibition.

820 E. Genesee St.,

The funniest ghost story ever written. Novelist Charles Condomine enlists Madame Arcati, one of the most delightfully eccentric characters you will ever meet, to hold a séance at his home hoping to raise some ideas for a new book. Instead, she raises the ghost of his former wife, Elvira, who is determined to wreak havoc (and succeeds) on Charles' current marriage to Ruth. Recently revived on Broadway to hilarious effect, Blithe Spirit is one of Noel Coward's most sparkling comedies.
