In Da Window 4: Paper installation by Theresa Barry Echo
745 N. Salina St. (formerly Craft Chemistry)
Syracuse
Theresa will be installing a paper sculpture in the Echo Studio windows that is meant to celebrate the coming of spring with color and whimsy. For Theresa, one of the biggest pleasures of the end of winter is shedding all the dark, heavy clothing we wear for so many months to keep warm. In March, we begin looking forward to lighter days, lighter clothing, and colorful things popping up out of the ground. Two of her favorite things are store display windows and working with paper three dimensionally, and she loves that she is able to combine these things for this project. The sculpture will start in one window as a dress form and will visually continue in the second window, taking on a more abstract shape. Think: Pure fantasy, pure color, pure fun. Theresa was inspired by the work of Bea Svenfeld, Jen Stark, Roxy Paine, and the late Alexander McQueen.

Mary Giehl: Rice is Life Everson Museum of Art
Price: Suggested donation, $5, adults Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
The Everson Biennial returns in 2014 with the Edge of Art Series. The first artist featured is Mary Giehl. Known for her innovation with both materials and concepts, Giehl turns her focus to world hunger in this installation. The sculptural bowls are made from rice and water, the food that so much of the world relies on for nourishment. The bowls are suspended from a world map, which illustrates globally the areas where hunger is greatest and populations rely on rice to live.

Cuba 2014 Redhouse
Former Redhouse Theater
219 S. West St.,
Syracuse
Redhouse is proud to have Julieve Jubin's inspirational and touching photography entitled "Cuba 2014" on exhibit. Julieve Jubin received her MFA from Visual Studies Workshop in Rochester. She is a photo-based artist working with digital and experimental approaches to the image. She has exhibited her work in the US, Canada, and Europe and is the recipient of several awards and artist residencies. Her work is in the collection of the New York University Law School, Fototeca Cuba, and several private collections. She has taught at The Cooper Union School of Art, the International Center of Photography, Purdue University, and is currently an Associate Professor of Art at SUNY Oswego. She resides in New York City and Oswego. Artist Statement: Within the last few years, I've traveled to Cuba to photograph, as well as teach my course, Travel Photography: Cuba. During my first research trip in 2011, I immediately recognized that Cuba was different than any other place I had been. Certainly, I expected to see the old American cars, Spanish colonial architecture, and propaganda. What I didn't expect was the richly textured character of the street life. ... Within the last few years, largely due to the economic reforms and loosening of restrictions, streets and neighborhoods are transforming as new small businesses develop and homes are being restored. Fortunately, this shifting landscape hasn't yet altered the daily rituals and spirited atmosphere of the street life I've been so privileged to know. But it's clear Cuba is moving away from the time capsule it once inhabited towards a new, yet undetermined future. The gallery is open by appointment by phoning 315-425-0405.

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.

The Way Out: MFA 2014 Syracuse University Art Museum
Price: Free Syracuse University Art Museum, Shaffer Art Building
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
The annual master of fine arts exhibition features 21 artists from the Departments of Art and Transmedia. This year's presenting artists are working in a variety of media, including painting, photography, printmaking, sculpture, ceramics, film, and site-specific installation. What sets the artists in The Way Out apart is the reinterpretation of traditional media into a contemporary context. Painting and drawing, printmaking, sculpture, photography, and film--all familiar instruments in the foundation of art making--have been introduced in a fresh milieu of concept and craft. Oil on canvas partnered with documentary video, works on paper that combine printmaking, drawing, and painting, and site-specific installations of ceramic sculpture and photography. They are fused with both familiar and previously unexplored concepts that range from notions of gender, family, and place to abstract narratives and sensory interaction.

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.

Constructivism: Photos by Robert Graham Gallery 4040
Gallery 4040
4040 New Court Ave (off Midler),
Syracuse
The photographs in Constructivism are inspired by some of the great movements in early 20th century art. Photographer Robert Graham cites specifically works by Kasimir Malevich, Wassily Kandinsky and Alexander Rodchenko as having major influence behind this new series. Graham's "Constructivism" exhibition coincides with the release of his book by the same title. For this occasion Graham states, "I put this exhibit and companion book under the Constructivist umbrella in part because of an affinity for Russian art, music, and literature." Graham, who lives in Rochester, has published images from Syracuse in his book, and included them in this exhibition.

Getting To Know You: Artists Examine Authentic Connections in the Digital Age 601 Tully
601 Tully St.
Syracuse
Featuring work by Fanny Allié, American Bear, CampusNeighbor, and damali abrams. In the digital age, people can virtually live their lives online. With the advent of various social media platforms such as Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn, it is easier than ever to connect. However, are these relationships genuine? Furthermore, does a social medium foster intimacy or aid in the superficiality of our society? For this exhibition, 601 Tully does not seek to resolve these questions but rather, bring them to light. The featured artists offer avenues for people to have authentic connections with one another through various interactive mediums with and without the assistance of the internet. New York-based artist, Fanny Allié, invited Syracuse residents to submit photos, memories, and stories about their lives in an attempt to learn more about the community. With each memento, Allié will construct a site-specific installation that will give the audience a window into the individuals living in this area. While Allié's installation exemplifies the direct interaction between herself and the participant, the collaborative team of American Bear created prompts and assignments for the public to engage with one another. As the assignments are completed, American Bear hopes to foster a more compassionate and community-minded city. Like many college towns, there is and has always been an underlying fissure between Syracuse University students and the permanent residents. In recent years, Nancy Cantor, former Syracuse University Chancellor, has worked to mend that divide by creating the initiative, Scholarship in Action. CampusNeighbor is a bartering website that builds on that idea by linking these two groups together through skill-sharing, with the hopes that these exchanges will help to dismantle barriers that have been created through the years. Although all of the above require participation in order to activate the piece, damali abrams, a performance-based artist, takes a different approach by reading from her diary. By exposing herself in this vulnerable manner, it elicits the viewer to relate to her through shared experiences. Whether one is simply telling their story to Allié or participating in CampusNeighbor, the exhibition aims to get to know you.

Ann Hamilton: table of contents Urban Video Project
Price: Free Everson Museum of Art Plaza
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
World premiere of table of contents (2013-2014), a new piece by celebrated multimedia artist, Ann Hamilton. When composer David Lang wrote the score for his notoriously difficult piece, "Table of Contents", he envisioned a nearly-impossible synchronization of two percussionists. After seeing a performance in 2011, Hamilton imagined attaching an array of low-resolution mini surveillance cameras to the hands of the percussionists and instruments. In the resulting piece, Hamilton's "table of contents", the cameras occupy the gap between hearing and seeing. The edit generates a counter-rhythm--a back-and-forth that brings us intimately into "impossible" virtuosity.

In Da Window 4: Paper installation by Theresa Barry Echo
745 N. Salina St. (formerly Craft Chemistry)
Syracuse
Theresa will be installing a paper sculpture in the Echo Studio windows that is meant to celebrate the coming of spring with color and whimsy. For Theresa, one of the biggest pleasures of the end of winter is shedding all the dark, heavy clothing we wear for so many months to keep warm. In March, we begin looking forward to lighter days, lighter clothing, and colorful things popping up out of the ground. Two of her favorite things are store display windows and working with paper three dimensionally, and she loves that she is able to combine these things for this project. The sculpture will start in one window as a dress form and will visually continue in the second window, taking on a more abstract shape. Think: Pure fantasy, pure color, pure fun. Theresa was inspired by the work of Bea Svenfeld, Jen Stark, Roxy Paine, and the late Alexander McQueen.

Artist statement: I grew up in Pittsburgh. My parents enjoyed driving around and hunting for furniture on the weekends and I got to see much of the city this way. I was taken by the furnaces and mills that lined the rivers--these giant, dark carcasses. At home, the only photo book my parents had was a paperback of Becher typologies and I looked at the blast furnaces and mineheads for hours. Once mobile at sixteen, I explored these places intimately. With a developing fondness and understanding, I began to photograph in the surrounding neighborhoods.

Michael Bühler-Rose: New Geographics Light Work Gallery
Light Work Gallery
316 Waverly Ave., Syracuse University,
Syracuse
Michael Buhler-Rose's practices on multiple platforms influence his production as an artist. He has described his subjects as "theatrical cultural realities" and "feats of representation through place and displacement." Bühler-Rose uses western painting styles: still lifes, landscapes, portraits, to play with previous political notions of Hindu and Indic aesthetics: representations of gods and goddesses, incense, flowers, or the saris or bharatnaytam outfits worn by young women of European descent who live in a Hindu community in Florida. These pictures create a dialogue between the Orient and the Occident, creating a game of mirrors and reflections that interact endlessly, creating a juxtaposition of territories.

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.

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.

The Way Out: MFA 2014 Syracuse University Art Museum
Price: Free Syracuse University Art Museum, Shaffer Art Building
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
The annual master of fine arts exhibition features 21 artists from the Departments of Art and Transmedia. This year's presenting artists are working in a variety of media, including painting, photography, printmaking, sculpture, ceramics, film, and site-specific installation. What sets the artists in The Way Out apart is the reinterpretation of traditional media into a contemporary context. Painting and drawing, printmaking, sculpture, photography, and film--all familiar instruments in the foundation of art making--have been introduced in a fresh milieu of concept and craft. Oil on canvas partnered with documentary video, works on paper that combine printmaking, drawing, and painting, and site-specific installations of ceramic sculpture and photography. They are fused with both familiar and previously unexplored concepts that range from notions of gender, family, and place to abstract narratives and sensory interaction.

The bowls are suspended from a world map, which illustrates globally the areas where hunger is greatest and populations rely on rice to live.

Constructivism: Photos by Robert Graham Gallery 4040
Gallery 4040
4040 New Court Ave (off Midler),
Syracuse
The photographs in Constructivism are inspired by some of the great movements in early 20th century art. Photographer Robert Graham cites specifically works by Kasimir Malevich, Wassily Kandinsky and Alexander Rodchenko as having major influence behind this new series. Graham's "Constructivism" exhibition coincides with the release of his book by the same title. For this occasion Graham states, "I put this exhibit and companion book under the Constructivist umbrella in part because of an affinity for Russian art, music, and literature." Graham, who lives in Rochester, has published images from Syracuse in his book, and included them in this exhibition.

In Da Window 4: Paper installation by Theresa Barry Echo
745 N. Salina St. (formerly Craft Chemistry)
Syracuse
Theresa will be installing a paper sculpture in the Echo Studio windows that is meant to celebrate the coming of spring with color and whimsy. For Theresa, one of the biggest pleasures of the end of winter is shedding all the dark, heavy clothing we wear for so many months to keep warm. In March, we begin looking forward to lighter days, lighter clothing, and colorful things popping up out of the ground. Two of her favorite things are store display windows and working with paper three dimensionally, and she loves that she is able to combine these things for this project. The sculpture will start in one window as a dress form and will visually continue in the second window, taking on a more abstract shape. Think: Pure fantasy, pure color, pure fun. Theresa was inspired by the work of Bea Svenfeld, Jen Stark, Roxy Paine, and the late Alexander McQueen.

Gallery Exhibit: Lin Price--Realities, Dreams and Myths Onondaga Community College
Ann Felton Multicultural Center and Gallery
Onondaga Community College,
Syracuse
Artist Statement: These recent works are part of an ongoing series, which often features an "Everyman" character, who exists in invented painterly terrains. It is an alternate dream-like world that mirrors back to us the difficulties of daily existence and unspoken longings. And, although I've chosen to depict a particular model, there is an element of autobiography in many of the paintings. Recurring themes emerge; work, isolation, stress, searching, anticipation, and caring, and I believe many people in our times can identify with them. The paintings are idiosyncratic and I attempt to execute them with empathy towards the human condition. Through imagination, playful creation of abstracted spaces, and color composition, I attempt to show an inner world that is mysterious, somehow noble, and non-linear--as dreams and life often are.

The Archive in Motion Syracuse University Library Special Collections Research Center
Price: Free Bird Library, 6th Floor
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
This exhibition explores the concept of movement through the materials held by SU Libraries' Special Collections Research Center. Organized around a set of interlinked themes—color, combat, magic, transportation, dance, drawing, athletics, and gravity—the exhibition encompasses rare books, manuscripts, photographs, and original artworks spanning the 15th and 20th centuries. Inspired by the eccentric library of the art historian Aby Warburg and informed by the theoretical discourse on the archive formulated by Walter Benjamin, Jorge Luis Borges, Jacques Derrida, and Michel Foucault, this exhibition highlights the unique character of the collections at Syracuse. From Albert Einstein's original handwritten research paper "On Rotationally Symmetric Stationary Gravitational Fields," through stunning photographs of ballet dancers Paul Draper and George Skibine, to pochoir prints hand-painted by Native Americans, this exhibition not only attends to the representation of movement found in the collections, but it suggests that the archive is itself always in motion.

Michael Bühler-Rose: New Geographics Light Work Gallery
Light Work Gallery
316 Waverly Ave., Syracuse University,
Syracuse
Michael Buhler-Rose's practices on multiple platforms influence his production as an artist. He has described his subjects as "theatrical cultural realities" and "feats of representation through place and displacement." Bühler-Rose uses western painting styles: still lifes, landscapes, portraits, to play with previous political notions of Hindu and Indic aesthetics: representations of gods and goddesses, incense, flowers, or the saris or bharatnaytam outfits worn by young women of European descent who live in a Hindu community in Florida. These pictures create a dialogue between the Orient and the Occident, creating a game of mirrors and reflections that interact endlessly, creating a juxtaposition of territories.

Artist statement: I grew up in Pittsburgh. My parents enjoyed driving around and hunting for furniture on the weekends and I got to see much of the city this way. I was taken by the furnaces and mills that lined the rivers--these giant, dark carcasses. At home, the only photo book my parents had was a paperback of Becher typologies and I looked at the blast furnaces and mineheads for hours. Once mobile at sixteen, I explored these places intimately. With a developing fondness and understanding, I began to photograph in the surrounding neighborhoods.

Cuba 2014 Redhouse
Former Redhouse Theater
219 S. West St.,
Syracuse
Redhouse is proud to have Julieve Jubin's inspirational and touching photography entitled "Cuba 2014" on exhibit. Julieve Jubin received her MFA from Visual Studies Workshop in Rochester. She is a photo-based artist working with digital and experimental approaches to the image. She has exhibited her work in the US, Canada, and Europe and is the recipient of several awards and artist residencies. Her work is in the collection of the New York University Law School, Fototeca Cuba, and several private collections. She has taught at The Cooper Union School of Art, the International Center of Photography, Purdue University, and is currently an Associate Professor of Art at SUNY Oswego. She resides in New York City and Oswego. Artist Statement: Within the last few years, I've traveled to Cuba to photograph, as well as teach my course, Travel Photography: Cuba. During my first research trip in 2011, I immediately recognized that Cuba was different than any other place I had been. Certainly, I expected to see the old American cars, Spanish colonial architecture, and propaganda. What I didn't expect was the richly textured character of the street life. ... Within the last few years, largely due to the economic reforms and loosening of restrictions, streets and neighborhoods are transforming as new small businesses develop and homes are being restored. Fortunately, this shifting landscape hasn't yet altered the daily rituals and spirited atmosphere of the street life I've been so privileged to know. But it's clear Cuba is moving away from the time capsule it once inhabited towards a new, yet undetermined future. The gallery is open by appointment by phoning 315-425-0405.

Abisay Puentes: Mist/Brumas La Casita Cultural Center
Price: Free La Casita Cultural Center
109 Otisco St.,
Syracuse
Abisay Puentes reflects on universal problems of our human existence. Using characters like an old Adam and an old Eve, the artist seeks to develop his own myth. Developing a malleable parable, Puentes tries to tell his own story. As a primary element, he invents the existence of his characters in a theatrical ambiance, in an act of illusion, in the mist, the "brumas", that hides a more profound truth, concealed by his actors. The apple is but an escape. For Adam and Eve, there is nothing more important than themselves. Selfishness is a disease of our humanity. A world without selfishness would be the closest thing to the ideal of Paradise. "A world without selfishness," says Abisay Puentes, "would change the color of my paintings."

In Da Window 4: Paper installation by Theresa Barry Echo
745 N. Salina St. (formerly Craft Chemistry)
Syracuse
Theresa will be installing a paper sculpture in the Echo Studio windows that is meant to celebrate the coming of spring with color and whimsy. For Theresa, one of the biggest pleasures of the end of winter is shedding all the dark, heavy clothing we wear for so many months to keep warm. In March, we begin looking forward to lighter days, lighter clothing, and colorful things popping up out of the ground. Two of her favorite things are store display windows and working with paper three dimensionally, and she loves that she is able to combine these things for this project. The sculpture will start in one window as a dress form and will visually continue in the second window, taking on a more abstract shape. Think: Pure fantasy, pure color, pure fun. Theresa was inspired by the work of Bea Svenfeld, Jen Stark, Roxy Paine, and the late Alexander McQueen.

Gallery Exhibit: Lin Price--Realities, Dreams and Myths Onondaga Community College
Ann Felton Multicultural Center and Gallery
Onondaga Community College,
Syracuse
Artist Statement: These recent works are part of an ongoing series, which often features an "Everyman" character, who exists in invented painterly terrains. It is an alternate dream-like world that mirrors back to us the difficulties of daily existence and unspoken longings. And, although I've chosen to depict a particular model, there is an element of autobiography in many of the paintings. Recurring themes emerge; work, isolation, stress, searching, anticipation, and caring, and I believe many people in our times can identify with them. The paintings are idiosyncratic and I attempt to execute them with empathy towards the human condition. Through imagination, playful creation of abstracted spaces, and color composition, I attempt to show an inner world that is mysterious, somehow noble, and non-linear--as dreams and life often are.

The Archive in Motion Syracuse University Library Special Collections Research Center
Price: Free Bird Library, 6th Floor
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
This exhibition explores the concept of movement through the materials held by SU Libraries' Special Collections Research Center. Organized around a set of interlinked themes—color, combat, magic, transportation, dance, drawing, athletics, and gravity—the exhibition encompasses rare books, manuscripts, photographs, and original artworks spanning the 15th and 20th centuries. Inspired by the eccentric library of the art historian Aby Warburg and informed by the theoretical discourse on the archive formulated by Walter Benjamin, Jorge Luis Borges, Jacques Derrida, and Michel Foucault, this exhibition highlights the unique character of the collections at Syracuse. From Albert Einstein's original handwritten research paper "On Rotationally Symmetric Stationary Gravitational Fields," through stunning photographs of ballet dancers Paul Draper and George Skibine, to pochoir prints hand-painted by Native Americans, this exhibition not only attends to the representation of movement found in the collections, but it suggests that the archive is itself always in motion.

Artist statement: I grew up in Pittsburgh. My parents enjoyed driving around and hunting for furniture on the weekends and I got to see much of the city this way. I was taken by the furnaces and mills that lined the rivers--these giant, dark carcasses. At home, the only photo book my parents had was a paperback of Becher typologies and I looked at the blast furnaces and mineheads for hours. Once mobile at sixteen, I explored these places intimately. With a developing fondness and understanding, I began to photograph in the surrounding neighborhoods.

Michael Bühler-Rose: New Geographics Light Work Gallery
Light Work Gallery
316 Waverly Ave., Syracuse University,
Syracuse
Michael Buhler-Rose's practices on multiple platforms influence his production as an artist. He has described his subjects as "theatrical cultural realities" and "feats of representation through place and displacement." Bühler-Rose uses western painting styles: still lifes, landscapes, portraits, to play with previous political notions of Hindu and Indic aesthetics: representations of gods and goddesses, incense, flowers, or the saris or bharatnaytam outfits worn by young women of European descent who live in a Hindu community in Florida. These pictures create a dialogue between the Orient and the Occident, creating a game of mirrors and reflections that interact endlessly, creating a juxtaposition of territories.

Cuba 2014 Redhouse
Former Redhouse Theater
219 S. West St.,
Syracuse
Redhouse is proud to have Julieve Jubin's inspirational and touching photography entitled "Cuba 2014" on exhibit. Julieve Jubin received her MFA from Visual Studies Workshop in Rochester. She is a photo-based artist working with digital and experimental approaches to the image. She has exhibited her work in the US, Canada, and Europe and is the recipient of several awards and artist residencies. Her work is in the collection of the New York University Law School, Fototeca Cuba, and several private collections. She has taught at The Cooper Union School of Art, the International Center of Photography, Purdue University, and is currently an Associate Professor of Art at SUNY Oswego. She resides in New York City and Oswego. Artist Statement: Within the last few years, I've traveled to Cuba to photograph, as well as teach my course, Travel Photography: Cuba. During my first research trip in 2011, I immediately recognized that Cuba was different than any other place I had been. Certainly, I expected to see the old American cars, Spanish colonial architecture, and propaganda. What I didn't expect was the richly textured character of the street life. ... Within the last few years, largely due to the economic reforms and loosening of restrictions, streets and neighborhoods are transforming as new small businesses develop and homes are being restored. Fortunately, this shifting landscape hasn't yet altered the daily rituals and spirited atmosphere of the street life I've been so privileged to know. But it's clear Cuba is moving away from the time capsule it once inhabited towards a new, yet undetermined future. The gallery is open by appointment by phoning 315-425-0405.

The Way Out: MFA 2014 Syracuse University Art Museum
Price: Free Syracuse University Art Museum, Shaffer Art Building
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
The annual master of fine arts exhibition features 21 artists from the Departments of Art and Transmedia. This year's presenting artists are working in a variety of media, including painting, photography, printmaking, sculpture, ceramics, film, and site-specific installation. What sets the artists in The Way Out apart is the reinterpretation of traditional media into a contemporary context. Painting and drawing, printmaking, sculpture, photography, and film--all familiar instruments in the foundation of art making--have been introduced in a fresh milieu of concept and craft. Oil on canvas partnered with documentary video, works on paper that combine printmaking, drawing, and painting, and site-specific installations of ceramic sculpture and photography. They are fused with both familiar and previously unexplored concepts that range from notions of gender, family, and place to abstract narratives and sensory interaction.

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.

Inspired by the eccentric library of the art historian Aby Warburg and informed by the theoretical discourse on the archive formulated by Walter Benjamin, Jorge Luis Borges, Jacques Derrida, and Michel Foucault, this exhibition highlights the unique character of the collections at Syracuse. From Albert Einstein's original handwritten research paper "On Rotationally Symmetric Stationary Gravitational Fields," through stunning photographs of ballet dancers Paul Draper and George Skibine, to pochoir prints hand-painted by Native Americans, this exhibition not only attends to the representation of movement found in the collections, but it suggests that the archive is itself always in motion.

Michael Bühler-Rose: New Geographics Light Work Gallery
Light Work Gallery
316 Waverly Ave., Syracuse University,
Syracuse
Michael Buhler-Rose's practices on multiple platforms influence his production as an artist. He has described his subjects as "theatrical cultural realities" and "feats of representation through place and displacement." Bühler-Rose uses western painting styles: still lifes, landscapes, portraits, to play with previous political notions of Hindu and Indic aesthetics: representations of gods and goddesses, incense, flowers, or the saris or bharatnaytam outfits worn by young women of European descent who live in a Hindu community in Florida. These pictures create a dialogue between the Orient and the Occident, creating a game of mirrors and reflections that interact endlessly, creating a juxtaposition of territories.

Dan Wetmore: Golden Dawn Light Work Gallery

Light Work and Community Darkrooms are pleased to present Dan Wetmore's exhibition Golden Dawn, a series of pictures made from 2009-2012, in and between Flint, MI, Binghamton, NY, Cleveland, OH, Wheeling, WV, and Pittsburgh, PA. Artist statement: I grew up in Pittsburgh. My parents enjoyed driving around and hunting for furniture on the weekends and I got to see much of the city this way. I was taken by the furnaces and mills that lined the rivers--these giant, dark carcasses. At home, the only photo book my parents had was a paperback of Becher typologies and I looked at the blast furnaces and mineheads for hours. Once mobile at sixteen, I explored these places intimately. With a developing fondness and understanding, I began to photograph in the surrounding neighborhoods.

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.

Cuba 2014 Redhouse
Former Redhouse Theater
219 S. West St.,
Syracuse
Redhouse is proud to have Julieve Jubin's inspirational and touching photography entitled "Cuba 2014" on exhibit. Julieve Jubin received her MFA from Visual Studies Workshop in Rochester. She is a photo-based artist working with digital and experimental approaches to the image. She has exhibited her work in the US, Canada, and Europe and is the recipient of several awards and artist residencies. Her work is in the collection of the New York University Law School, Fototeca Cuba, and several private collections. She has taught at The Cooper Union School of Art, the International Center of Photography, Purdue University, and is currently an Associate Professor of Art at SUNY Oswego. She resides in New York City and Oswego. Artist Statement: Within the last few years, I've traveled to Cuba to photograph, as well as teach my course, Travel Photography: Cuba. During my first research trip in 2011, I immediately recognized that Cuba was different than any other place I had been. Certainly, I expected to see the old American cars, Spanish colonial architecture, and propaganda. What I didn't expect was the richly textured character of the street life. ... Within the last few years, largely due to the economic reforms and loosening of restrictions, streets and neighborhoods are transforming as new small businesses develop and homes are being restored. Fortunately, this shifting landscape hasn't yet altered the daily rituals and spirited atmosphere of the street life I've been so privileged to know. But it's clear Cuba is moving away from the time capsule it once inhabited towards a new, yet undetermined future. The gallery is open by appointment by phoning 315-425-0405.

The Way Out: MFA 2014 Syracuse University Art Museum
Price: Free Syracuse University Art Museum, Shaffer Art Building
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
The annual master of fine arts exhibition features 21 artists from the Departments of Art and Transmedia. This year's presenting artists are working in a variety of media, including painting, photography, printmaking, sculpture, ceramics, film, and site-specific installation. What sets the artists in The Way Out apart is the reinterpretation of traditional media into a contemporary context. Painting and drawing, printmaking, sculpture, photography, and film--all familiar instruments in the foundation of art making--have been introduced in a fresh milieu of concept and craft. Oil on canvas partnered with documentary video, works on paper that combine printmaking, drawing, and painting, and site-specific installations of ceramic sculpture and photography. They are fused with both familiar and previously unexplored concepts that range from notions of gender, family, and place to abstract narratives and sensory interaction.

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.

Abisay Puentes: Mist/Brumas La Casita Cultural Center
Price: Free La Casita Cultural Center
109 Otisco St.,
Syracuse
Abisay Puentes reflects on universal problems of our human existence. Using characters like an old Adam and an old Eve, the artist seeks to develop his own myth. Developing a malleable parable, Puentes tries to tell his own story. As a primary element, he invents the existence of his characters in a theatrical ambiance, in an act of illusion, in the mist, the "brumas", that hides a more profound truth, concealed by his actors. The apple is but an escape. For Adam and Eve, there is nothing more important than themselves. Selfishness is a disease of our humanity. A world without selfishness would be the closest thing to the ideal of Paradise. "A world without selfishness," says Abisay Puentes, "would change the color of my paintings."

Getting To Know You: Artists Examine Authentic Connections in the Digital Age 601 Tully
601 Tully St.
Syracuse
Featuring work by Fanny Allié, American Bear, CampusNeighbor, and damali abrams. In the digital age, people can virtually live their lives online. With the advent of various social media platforms such as Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn, it is easier than ever to connect. However, are these relationships genuine? Furthermore, does a social medium foster intimacy or aid in the superficiality of our society? For this exhibition, 601 Tully does not seek to resolve these questions but rather, bring them to light. The featured artists offer avenues for people to have authentic connections with one another through various interactive mediums with and without the assistance of the internet. New York-based artist, Fanny Allié, invited Syracuse residents to submit photos, memories, and stories about their lives in an attempt to learn more about the community. With each memento, Allié will construct a site-specific installation that will give the audience a window into the individuals living in this area. While Allié's installation exemplifies the direct interaction between herself and the participant, the collaborative team of American Bear created prompts and assignments for the public to engage with one another. As the assignments are completed, American Bear hopes to foster a more compassionate and community-minded city. Like many college towns, there is and has always been an underlying fissure between Syracuse University students and the permanent residents. In recent years, Nancy Cantor, former Syracuse University Chancellor, has worked to mend that divide by creating the initiative, Scholarship in Action. CampusNeighbor is a bartering website that builds on that idea by linking these two groups together through skill-sharing, with the hopes that these exchanges will help to dismantle barriers that have been created through the years. Although all of the above require participation in order to activate the piece, damali abrams, a performance-based artist, takes a different approach by reading from her diary. By exposing herself in this vulnerable manner, it elicits the viewer to relate to her through shared experiences. Whether one is simply telling their story to Allié or participating in CampusNeighbor, the exhibition aims to get to know you.

The Glass Menagerie Syracuse Stage Timothy Bond, director
Archbold Theater, Syracuse Stage
820 E. Genesee St.,
Syracuse
The Glass Menagerie launched Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Tennessee Williams' career and is among the masterworks of the American stage. Drawn from Williams' life, this moving memory play explores the illusory nature of dreams and the fragility of hope. Abandoned by the father of her children, Amanda is obsessed with finding a suitor for her shy and vulnerable daughter, Laura. Tom, the restless and sensitive son who narrates the story, eases his frustrations with nighttime escapes to the movies. At Amanda's urgings, Tom asks a co-worker to dinner. Can this "gentleman caller" offer any light to these bruised souls clinging to the tattered edges of lost dreams and faded hopes?

In Da Window 4: Paper installation by Theresa Barry Echo
745 N. Salina St. (formerly Craft Chemistry)
Syracuse
Theresa will be installing a paper sculpture in the Echo Studio windows that is meant to celebrate the coming of spring with color and whimsy. For Theresa, one of the biggest pleasures of the end of winter is shedding all the dark, heavy clothing we wear for so many months to keep warm. In March, we begin looking forward to lighter days, lighter clothing, and colorful things popping up out of the ground. Two of her favorite things are store display windows and working with paper three dimensionally, and she loves that she is able to combine these things for this project. The sculpture will start in one window as a dress form and will visually continue in the second window, taking on a more abstract shape. Think: Pure fantasy, pure color, pure fun. Theresa was inspired by the work of Bea Svenfeld, Jen Stark, Roxy Paine, and the late Alexander McQueen.

The Archive in Motion Syracuse University Library Special Collections Research Center
Price: Free Bird Library, 6th Floor
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
This exhibition explores the concept of movement through the materials held by SU Libraries' Special Collections Research Center. Organized around a set of interlinked themes—color, combat, magic, transportation, dance, drawing, athletics, and gravity—the exhibition encompasses rare books, manuscripts, photographs, and original artworks spanning the 15th and 20th centuries. Inspired by the eccentric library of the art historian Aby Warburg and informed by the theoretical discourse on the archive formulated by Walter Benjamin, Jorge Luis Borges, Jacques Derrida, and Michel Foucault, this exhibition highlights the unique character of the collections at Syracuse. From Albert Einstein's original handwritten research paper "On Rotationally Symmetric Stationary Gravitational Fields," through stunning photographs of ballet dancers Paul Draper and George Skibine, to pochoir prints hand-painted by Native Americans, this exhibition not only attends to the representation of movement found in the collections, but it suggests that the archive is itself always in motion.

Bühler-Rose uses western painting styles: still lifes, landscapes, portraits, to play with previous political notions of Hindu and Indic aesthetics: representations of gods and goddesses, incense, flowers, or the saris or bharatnaytam outfits worn by young women of European descent who live in a Hindu community in Florida. These pictures create a dialogue between the Orient and the Occident, creating a game of mirrors and reflections that interact endlessly, creating a juxtaposition of territories.

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.

Cuba 2014 Redhouse
Former Redhouse Theater
219 S. West St.,
Syracuse
Redhouse is proud to have Julieve Jubin's inspirational and touching photography entitled "Cuba 2014" on exhibit. Julieve Jubin received her MFA from Visual Studies Workshop in Rochester. She is a photo-based artist working with digital and experimental approaches to the image. She has exhibited her work in the US, Canada, and Europe and is the recipient of several awards and artist residencies. Her work is in the collection of the New York University Law School, Fototeca Cuba, and several private collections. She has taught at The Cooper Union School of Art, the International Center of Photography, Purdue University, and is currently an Associate Professor of Art at SUNY Oswego. She resides in New York City and Oswego. Artist Statement: Within the last few years, I've traveled to Cuba to photograph, as well as teach my course, Travel Photography: Cuba. During my first research trip in 2011, I immediately recognized that Cuba was different than any other place I had been. Certainly, I expected to see the old American cars, Spanish colonial architecture, and propaganda. What I didn't expect was the richly textured character of the street life. ... Within the last few years, largely due to the economic reforms and loosening of restrictions, streets and neighborhoods are transforming as new small businesses develop and homes are being restored. Fortunately, this shifting landscape hasn't yet altered the daily rituals and spirited atmosphere of the street life I've been so privileged to know. But it's clear Cuba is moving away from the time capsule it once inhabited towards a new, yet undetermined future. The gallery is open by appointment by phoning 315-425-0405.

The Way Out: MFA 2014 Syracuse University Art Museum
Price: Free Syracuse University Art Museum, Shaffer Art Building
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
The annual master of fine arts exhibition features 21 artists from the Departments of Art and Transmedia. This year's presenting artists are working in a variety of media, including painting, photography, printmaking, sculpture, ceramics, film, and site-specific installation. What sets the artists in The Way Out apart is the reinterpretation of traditional media into a contemporary context. Painting and drawing, printmaking, sculpture, photography, and film--all familiar instruments in the foundation of art making--have been introduced in a fresh milieu of concept and craft. Oil on canvas partnered with documentary video, works on paper that combine printmaking, drawing, and painting, and site-specific installations of ceramic sculpture and photography. They are fused with both familiar and previously unexplored concepts that range from notions of gender, family, and place to abstract narratives and sensory interaction.

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.

Abisay Puentes: Mist/Brumas La Casita Cultural Center
Price: Free La Casita Cultural Center
109 Otisco St.,
Syracuse
Abisay Puentes reflects on universal problems of our human existence. Using characters like an old Adam and an old Eve, the artist seeks to develop his own myth. Developing a malleable parable, Puentes tries to tell his own story. As a primary element, he invents the existence of his characters in a theatrical ambiance, in an act of illusion, in the mist, the "brumas", that hides a more profound truth, concealed by his actors. The apple is but an escape. For Adam and Eve, there is nothing more important than themselves. Selfishness is a disease of our humanity. A world without selfishness would be the closest thing to the ideal of Paradise. "A world without selfishness," says Abisay Puentes, "would change the color of my paintings."

Getting To Know You: Artists Examine Authentic Connections in the Digital Age 601 Tully
601 Tully St.
Syracuse
Featuring work by Fanny Allié, American Bear, CampusNeighbor, and damali abrams. In the digital age, people can virtually live their lives online. With the advent of various social media platforms such as Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn, it is easier than ever to connect. However, are these relationships genuine? Furthermore, does a social medium foster intimacy or aid in the superficiality of our society? For this exhibition, 601 Tully does not seek to resolve these questions but rather, bring them to light. The featured artists offer avenues for people to have authentic connections with one another through various interactive mediums with and without the assistance of the internet. New York-based artist, Fanny Allié, invited Syracuse residents to submit photos, memories, and stories about their lives in an attempt to learn more about the community. With each memento, Allié will construct a site-specific installation that will give the audience a window into the individuals living in this area. While Allié's installation exemplifies the direct interaction between herself and the participant, the collaborative team of American Bear created prompts and assignments for the public to engage with one another. As the assignments are completed, American Bear hopes to foster a more compassionate and community-minded city. Like many college towns, there is and has always been an underlying fissure between Syracuse University students and the permanent residents. In recent years, Nancy Cantor, former Syracuse University Chancellor, has worked to mend that divide by creating the initiative, Scholarship in Action. CampusNeighbor is a bartering website that builds on that idea by linking these two groups together through skill-sharing, with the hopes that these exchanges will help to dismantle barriers that have been created through the years. Although all of the above require participation in order to activate the piece, damali abrams, a performance-based artist, takes a different approach by reading from her diary. By exposing herself in this vulnerable manner, it elicits the viewer to relate to her through shared experiences. Whether one is simply telling their story to Allié or participating in CampusNeighbor, the exhibition aims to get to know you.

Ann Hamilton: table of contents Urban Video Project
Price: Free Everson Museum of Art Plaza
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
World premiere of table of contents (2013-2014), a new piece by celebrated multimedia artist, Ann Hamilton. When composer David Lang wrote the score for his notoriously difficult piece, "Table of Contents", he envisioned a nearly-impossible synchronization of two percussionists. After seeing a performance in 2011, Hamilton imagined attaching an array of low-resolution mini surveillance cameras to the hands of the percussionists and instruments. In the resulting piece, Hamilton's "table of contents", the cameras occupy the gap between hearing and seeing. The edit generates a counter-rhythm--a back-and-forth that brings us intimately into "impossible" virtuosity.

820 E. Genesee St.,
Syracuse
The Glass Menagerie launched Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Tennessee Williams' career and is among the masterworks of the American stage. Drawn from Williams' life, this moving memory play explores the illusory nature of dreams and the fragility of hope. Abandoned by the father of her children, Amanda is obsessed with finding a suitor for her shy and vulnerable daughter, Laura. Tom, the restless and sensitive son who narrates the story, eases his frustrations with nighttime escapes to the movies. At Amanda's urgings, Tom asks a co-worker to dinner. Can this "gentleman caller" offer any light to these bruised souls clinging to the tattered edges of lost dreams and faded hopes?

In Da Window 4: Paper installation by Theresa Barry Echo
745 N. Salina St. (formerly Craft Chemistry)
Syracuse
Theresa will be installing a paper sculpture in the Echo Studio windows that is meant to celebrate the coming of spring with color and whimsy. For Theresa, one of the biggest pleasures of the end of winter is shedding all the dark, heavy clothing we wear for so many months to keep warm. In March, we begin looking forward to lighter days, lighter clothing, and colorful things popping up out of the ground. Two of her favorite things are store display windows and working with paper three dimensionally, and she loves that she is able to combine these things for this project. The sculpture will start in one window as a dress form and will visually continue in the second window, taking on a more abstract shape. Think: Pure fantasy, pure color, pure fun. Theresa was inspired by the work of Bea Svenfeld, Jen Stark, Roxy Paine, and the late Alexander McQueen.

The Archive in Motion Syracuse University Library Special Collections Research Center
Price: Free Bird Library, 6th Floor
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
This exhibition explores the concept of movement through the materials held by SU Libraries' Special Collections Research Center. Organized around a set of interlinked themes—color, combat, magic, transportation, dance, drawing, athletics, and gravity—the exhibition encompasses rare books, manuscripts, photographs, and original artworks spanning the 15th and 20th centuries. Inspired by the eccentric library of the art historian Aby Warburg and informed by the theoretical discourse on the archive formulated by Walter Benjamin, Jorge Luis Borges, Jacques Derrida, and Michel Foucault, this exhibition highlights the unique character of the collections at Syracuse. From Albert Einstein's original handwritten research paper "On Rotationally Symmetric Stationary Gravitational Fields," through stunning photographs of ballet dancers Paul Draper and George Skibine, to pochoir prints hand-painted by Native Americans, this exhibition not only attends to the representation of movement found in the collections, but it suggests that the archive is itself always in motion.

Michael Bühler-Rose: New Geographics Light Work Gallery
Light Work Gallery
316 Waverly Ave., Syracuse University,
Syracuse
Michael Buhler-Rose's practices on multiple platforms influence his production as an artist. He has described his subjects as "theatrical cultural realities" and "feats of representation through place and displacement." Bühler-Rose uses western painting styles: still lifes, landscapes, portraits, to play with previous political notions of Hindu and Indic aesthetics: representations of gods and goddesses, incense, flowers, or the saris or bharatnaytam outfits worn by young women of European descent who live in a Hindu community in Florida. These pictures create a dialogue between the Orient and the Occident, creating a game of mirrors and reflections that interact endlessly, creating a juxtaposition of territories.

Dan Wetmore: Golden Dawn Light Work Gallery
Price: Free Light Work Gallery

Light Work and Community Darkrooms are pleased to present Dan Wetmore's exhibition Golden Dawn, a series of pictures made from 2009-2012, in and between Flint, MI, Binghamton, NY, Cleveland, OH, Wheeling, WV, and Pittsburgh, PA. Artist statement: I grew up in Pittsburgh. My parents enjoyed driving around and hunting for furniture on the weekends and I got to see much of the city this way. I was taken by the furnaces and mills that lined the rivers--these giant, dark carcasses. At home, the only photo book my parents had was a paperback of Becher typologies and I looked at the blast furnaces and mineheads for hours. Once mobile at sixteen, I explored these places intimately. With a developing fondness and understanding, I began to photograph in the surrounding neighborhoods.

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.

Cuba 2014 Redhouse
Former Redhouse Theater
219 S. West St.,
Syracuse
Redhouse is proud to have Julieve Jubin's inspirational and touching photography entitled "Cuba 2014" on exhibit. Julieve Jubin received her MFA from Visual Studies Workshop in Rochester. She is a photo-based artist working with digital and experimental approaches to the image. She has exhibited her work in the US, Canada, and Europe and is the recipient of several awards and artist residencies. Her work is in the collection of the New York University Law School, Fototeca Cuba, and several private collections. She has taught at The Cooper Union School of Art, the International Center of Photography, Purdue University, and is currently an Associate Professor of Art at SUNY Oswego. She resides in New York City and Oswego. Artist Statement: Within the last few years, I've traveled to Cuba to photograph, as well as teach my course, Travel Photography: Cuba. During my first research trip in 2011, I immediately recognized that Cuba was different than any other place I had been. Certainly, I expected to see the old American cars, Spanish colonial architecture, and propaganda. What I didn't expect was the richly textured character of the street life. ... Within the last few years, largely due to the economic reforms and loosening of restrictions, streets and neighborhoods are transforming as new small businesses develop and homes are being restored. Fortunately, this shifting landscape hasn't yet altered the daily rituals and spirited atmosphere of the street life I've been so privileged to know. But it's clear Cuba is moving away from the time capsule it once inhabited towards a new, yet undetermined future. The gallery is open by appointment by phoning 315-425-0405.

The Way Out: MFA 2014 Syracuse University Art Museum
Price: Free Syracuse University Art Museum, Shaffer Art Building
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
The annual master of fine arts exhibition features 21 artists from the Departments of Art and Transmedia. This year's presenting artists are working in a variety of media, including painting, photography, printmaking, sculpture, ceramics, film, and site-specific installation. What sets the artists in The Way Out apart is the reinterpretation of traditional media into a contemporary context. Painting and drawing, printmaking, sculpture, photography, and film--all familiar instruments in the foundation of art making--have been introduced in a fresh milieu of concept and craft. Oil on canvas partnered with documentary video, works on paper that combine printmaking, drawing, and painting, and site-specific installations of ceramic sculpture and photography. They are fused with both familiar and previously unexplored concepts that range from notions of gender, family, and place to abstract narratives and sensory interaction.

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.

Constructivism: Photos by Robert Graham Gallery 4040
Gallery 4040
4040 New Court Ave (off Midler),
Syracuse
The photographs in Constructivism are inspired by some of the great movements in early 20th century art.

Graham's "Constructivism" exhibition coincides with the release of his book by the same title. For this occasion Graham states, "I put this exhibit and companion book under the Constructivist umbrella in part because of an affinity for Russian art, music, and literature." Graham, who lives in Rochester, has published images from Syracuse in his book, and included them in this exhibition.

Abisay Puentes: Mist/Brumas La Casita Cultural Center
Price: Free La Casita Cultural Center
109 Otisco St.,
Syracuse
Abisay Puentes reflects on universal problems of our human existence. Using characters like an old Adam and an old Eve, the artist seeks to develop his own myth. Developing a malleable parable, Puentes tries to tell his own story. As a primary element, he invents the existence of his characters in a theatrical ambiance, in an act of illusion, in the mist, the "brumas", that hides a more profound truth, concealed by his actors. The apple is but an escape. For Adam and Eve, there is nothing more important than themselves. Selfishness is a disease of our humanity. A world without selfishness would be the closest thing to the ideal of Paradise. "A world without selfishness," says Abisay Puentes, "would change the color of my paintings."

Getting To Know You: Artists Examine Authentic Connections in the Digital Age 601 Tully
601 Tully St.
Syracuse
Featuring work by Fanny Allié, American Bear, CampusNeighbor, and damali abrams. In the digital age, people can virtually live their lives online. With the advent of various social media platforms such as Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn, it is easier than ever to connect. However, are these relationships genuine? Furthermore, does a social medium foster intimacy or aid in the superficiality of our society? For this exhibition, 601 Tully does not seek to resolve these questions but rather, bring them to light. The featured artists offer avenues for people to have authentic connections with one another through various interactive mediums with and without the assistance of the internet. New York-based artist, Fanny Allié, invited Syracuse residents to submit photos, memories, and stories about their lives in an attempt to learn more about the community. With each memento, Allié will construct a site-specific installation that will give the audience a window into the individuals living in this area. While Allié's installation exemplifies the direct interaction between herself and the participant, the collaborative team of American Bear created prompts and assignments for the public to engage with one another. As the assignments are completed, American Bear hopes to foster a more compassionate and community-minded city. Like many college towns, there is and has always been an underlying fissure between Syracuse University students and the permanent residents. In recent years, Nancy Cantor, former Syracuse University Chancellor, has worked to mend that divide by creating the initiative, Scholarship in Action. CampusNeighbor is a bartering website that builds on that idea by linking these two groups together through skill-sharing, with the hopes that these exchanges will help to dismantle barriers that have been created through the years. Although all of the above require participation in order to activate the piece, damali abrams, a performance-based artist, takes a different approach by reading from her diary. By exposing herself in this vulnerable manner, it elicits the viewer to relate to her through shared experiences. Whether one is simply telling their story to Allié or participating in CampusNeighbor, the exhibition aims to get to know you.

Ann Hamilton: table of contents Urban Video Project
Price: Free Everson Museum of Art Plaza
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
World premiere of table of contents (2013-2014), a new piece by celebrated multimedia artist, Ann Hamilton. When composer David Lang wrote the score for his notoriously difficult piece, "Table of Contents", he envisioned a nearly-impossible synchronization of two percussionists. After seeing a performance in 2011, Hamilton imagined attaching an array of low-resolution mini surveillance cameras to the hands of the percussionists and instruments. In the resulting piece, Hamilton's "table of contents", the cameras occupy the gap between hearing and seeing. The edit generates a counter-rhythm--a back-and-forth that brings us intimately into "impossible" virtuosity.

Laughter on the 23rd Floor Central New York Playhouse Dustin M. Czarny, director
Price: $20 CNY Playhouse
Shoppingtown Mall, Entrance No. 4 (adjacent to parking garage),
Dewitt
Set in 1953, Neil Simon's "flat-out funniest play in years" (Dennis Cunningham, CBS-TV) re-creates the mayhem, neuroses, nonstop gags, and constant one-upmanship of a team of brilliantly funny social misfits as they write The Max Prince Show, a weekly variety program. Among the crew are Milt, the insult artist; Ira, the hypochondriac whose dream is to have a virus named after him; and Val, a Russian émigré who takes a Berlitz course so he can curse without an accent. They are devoted to their boss, Max, a comic genius, a tyrant, and a paranoiac with a heart of gold. But his penchant for tippling and popping too many pills is growing under the pressures of a rising McCarthyism, network executives, and sponsors who want him to cut back his "too-smart" show and staff so that they can chase after the Leave It to Beaver and Father Knows Best audience.

Drawn from Williams' life, this moving memory play explores the illusory nature of dreams and the fragility of hope.

Can this "gentleman caller" offer any light to these bruised souls clinging to the tattered edges of lost dreams and faded hopes?

In Da Window 4: Paper installation by Theresa Barry Echo
745 N. Salina St. (formerly Craft Chemistry)
Syracuse
Theresa will be installing a paper sculpture in the Echo Studio windows that is meant to celebrate the coming of spring with color and whimsy. For Theresa, one of the biggest pleasures of the end of winter is shedding all the dark, heavy clothing we wear for so many months to keep warm. In March, we begin looking forward to lighter days, lighter clothing, and colorful things popping up out of the ground. Two of her favorite things are store display windows and working with paper three dimensionally, and she loves that she is able to combine these things for this project. The sculpture will start in one window as a dress form and will visually continue in the second window, taking on a more abstract shape. Think: Pure fantasy, pure color, pure fun. Theresa was inspired by the work of Bea Svenfeld, Jen Stark, Roxy Paine, and the late Alexander McQueen.

Cuba 2014 Redhouse
Former Redhouse Theater
219 S. West St.,
Syracuse
Redhouse is proud to have Julieve Jubin's inspirational and touching photography entitled "Cuba 2014" on exhibit. Julieve Jubin received her MFA from Visual Studies Workshop in Rochester. She is a photo-based artist working with digital and experimental approaches to the image. She has exhibited her work in the US, Canada, and Europe and is the recipient of several awards and artist residencies. Her work is in the collection of the New York University Law School, Fototeca Cuba, and several private collections. She has taught at The Cooper Union School of Art, the International Center of Photography, Purdue University, and is currently an Associate Professor of Art at SUNY Oswego. She resides in New York City and Oswego. Artist Statement: Within the last few years, I've traveled to Cuba to photograph, as well as teach my course, Travel Photography: Cuba. During my first research trip in 2011, I immediately recognized that Cuba was different than any other place I had been. Certainly, I expected to see the old American cars, Spanish colonial architecture, and propaganda. What I didn't expect was the richly textured character of the street life. ... Within the last few years, largely due to the economic reforms and loosening of restrictions, streets and neighborhoods are transforming as new small businesses develop and homes are being restored. Fortunately, this shifting landscape hasn't yet altered the daily rituals and spirited atmosphere of the street life I've been so privileged to know. But it's clear Cuba is moving away from the time capsule it once inhabited towards a new, yet undetermined future. The gallery is open by appointment by phoning 315-425-0405.

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.

The Way Out: MFA 2014 Syracuse University Art Museum
Price: Free Syracuse University Art Museum, Shaffer Art Building
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
The annual master of fine arts exhibition features 21 artists from the Departments of Art and Transmedia. This year's presenting artists are working in a variety of media, including painting, photography, printmaking, sculpture, ceramics, film, and site-specific installation. What sets the artists in The Way Out apart is the reinterpretation of traditional media into a contemporary context. Painting and drawing, printmaking, sculpture, photography, and film--all familiar instruments in the foundation of art making--have been introduced in a fresh milieu of concept and craft. Oil on canvas partnered with documentary video, works on paper that combine printmaking, drawing, and painting, and site-specific installations of ceramic sculpture and photography. They are fused with both familiar and previously unexplored concepts that range from notions of gender, family, and place to abstract narratives and sensory interaction.

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.

Constructivism: Photos by Robert Graham Gallery 4040
Gallery 4040
4040 New Court Ave (off Midler),
Syracuse
The photographs in Constructivism are inspired by some of the great movements in early 20th century art. Photographer Robert Graham cites specifically works by Kasimir Malevich, Wassily Kandinsky and Alexander Rodchenko as having major influence behind this new series. Graham's "Constructivism" exhibition coincides with the release of his book by the same title. For this occasion Graham states, "I put this exhibit and companion book under the Constructivist umbrella in part because of an affinity for Russian art, music, and literature." Graham, who lives in Rochester, has published images from Syracuse in his book, and included them in this exhibition.

Getting To Know You: Artists Examine Authentic Connections in the Digital Age 601 Tully
601 Tully St.
Syracuse
Featuring work by Fanny Allié, American Bear, CampusNeighbor, and damali abrams. In the digital age, people can virtually live their lives online. With the advent of various social media platforms such as Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn, it is easier than ever to connect. However, are these relationships genuine? Furthermore, does a social medium foster intimacy or aid in the superficiality of our society? For this exhibition, 601 Tully does not seek to resolve these questions but rather, bring them to light. The featured artists offer avenues for people to have authentic connections with one another through various interactive mediums with and without the assistance of the internet. New York-based artist, Fanny Allié, invited Syracuse residents to submit photos, memories, and stories about their lives in an attempt to learn more about the community. With each memento, Allié will construct a site-specific installation that will give the audience a window into the individuals living in this area. While Allié's installation exemplifies the direct interaction between herself and the participant, the collaborative team of American Bear created prompts and assignments for the public to engage with one another. As the assignments are completed, American Bear hopes to foster a more compassionate and community-minded city. Like many college towns, there is and has always been an underlying fissure between Syracuse University students and the permanent residents. In recent years, Nancy Cantor, former Syracuse University Chancellor, has worked to mend that divide by creating the initiative, Scholarship in Action. CampusNeighbor is a bartering website that builds on that idea by linking these two groups together through skill-sharing, with the hopes that these exchanges will help to dismantle barriers that have been created through the years. Although all of the above require participation in order to activate the piece, damali abrams, a performance-based artist, takes a different approach by reading from her diary. By exposing herself in this vulnerable manner, it elicits the viewer to relate to her through shared experiences. Whether one is simply telling their story to Allié or participating in CampusNeighbor, the exhibition aims to get to know you.

Ann Hamilton: table of contents Urban Video Project
Price: Free Everson Museum of Art Plaza
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
World premiere of table of contents (2013-2014), a new piece by celebrated multimedia artist, Ann Hamilton. When composer David Lang wrote the score for his notoriously difficult piece, "Table of Contents", he envisioned a nearly-impossible synchronization of two percussionists. After seeing a performance in 2011, Hamilton imagined attaching an array of low-resolution mini surveillance cameras to the hands of the percussionists and instruments. In the resulting piece, Hamilton's "table of contents", the cameras occupy the gap between hearing and seeing. The edit generates a counter-rhythm--a back-and-forth that brings us intimately into "impossible" virtuosity.

Laughter on the 23rd Floor Central New York Playhouse Dustin M. Czarny, director
Price: $34.95 dinner theater, $20 show only CNY Playhouse
Shoppingtown Mall, Entrance No. 4 (adjacent to parking garage),
Dewitt
Tonight's show will be preceded by dinner at 6:45 pm. Set in 1953, Neil Simon's "flat-out funniest play in years" (Dennis Cunningham, CBS-TV) re-creates the mayhem, neuroses, nonstop gags, and constant one-upmanship of a team of brilliantly funny social misfits as they write The Max Prince Show, a weekly variety program. Among the crew are Milt, the insult artist; Ira, the hypochondriac whose dream is to have a virus named after him; and Val, a Russian émigré who takes a Berlitz course so he can curse without an accent. They are devoted to their boss, Max, a comic genius, a tyrant, and a paranoiac with a heart of gold. But his penchant for tippling and popping too many pills is growing under the pressures of a rising McCarthyism, network executives, and sponsors who want him to cut back his "too-smart" show and staff so that they can chase after the Leave It to Beaver and Father Knows Best audience.

In her first theatrical production, Lisa will reveal the woman behind the comic, and her struggle with food, men and body image. At times hilariously funny, surprisingly touching and totally relatable, Fat Girl Interrupted will show a side of comedy's lovable "Queen of Mean" that few would guess exists. Lisa Lampanelli has become a household name as a standout contestant on the fifth season of NBC's Celebrity Apprentice and appeared in the David Chase-directed feature film, Not Fade Away. She is currently starring as a series regular on Bounty Hunters, CMT's first-ever animated show. This Grammy-nominated equal opportunity offender is a regular on late-night television, the Comedy Central Roasts, and is a frequent guest and guest host on Howard Stern's Sirius satellite radio shows. Lisa has also appeared on EXTRA as a guest correspondent, is a frequent guest and co-host on TMZ, and has sold out theaters across the country, including NYC's Radio City Music Hall, the Chicago Theatre, and Carnegie Hall. Lampanelli joined the ranks of comedy greats with her 2009 HBO comedy special, Long Live the Queen, and that same year, released her autobiography, Chocolate, Please: My Adventures in Food, Fat and Freaks. Lisa's greatest hits CD, "Equal Opportunity Offender," was released in April 2012. Tickets are available in person at the Box Office at The Oncenter (760 S. State Street), charge by phone (315-435-2121) or online via Ticketmaster.com.
