Windows Project: TONY 2012
The Warehouse Gallery

The Warehouse Gallery
350 W. Fayette St., Syracuse

For this project, Jeffrey Einhorn created a site-specific installation "A Portrait of the Artist as a Giant Deflating Head" to address the fine line between performance art and sculpture while emphasizing wittily the unstable state of things or a disorder of a system.

This Window Projects exhibition is part of The Other New York: 2012, a community-wide, multi-venue biennial exhibition organized by the Everson Museum of Art in collaboration with 14 Syracuse partner art organizations to highlight artists across Upstate New York, with a special focus on Central New York and the surrounding counties.

TONY: 2012: Variography
Erie Canal Museum

Price: Free
Erie Canal Museum
318 Erie Blvd. E., Syracuse

This exhibit features Buffalo artist Michael Bosworth's "Variography" -- a pair of installations, one inside the historic Syracuse Weighlock Building and the other outside and directly across the former Erie Canal (now Erie Blvd.) from the Weighlock. Inside there will be four-foot tall brick columns containing magic-lantern projectors, while outside will stand a camera obscurae built of cement on heavy wooden tripods.

Michael Bosworth is a nationally exhibiting artist and a professor in the photography department of Villa Maria College. He received his M.F.A. from the University of New Mexico, a B.F.A. and B.A. at UB. His commissioned public art projects include Fluid Culture, Main Street/Art Street, and Herd About Buffalo.

The Erie Canal Museum is proud to be a part of The Other New York: 2012 (TONY: 2012), an unprecedented community-wide, multi-venue contemporary art exhibition. TONY: 2012 is organized by the Everson Museum of Art in collaboration with ArtRage, Community Folk Art Center, Erie Canal Museum, Light Work, Onondaga Historical Association, Point of Contact, Rosamond Gifford Zoo, Stone Quarry Hill Art Park, SUArt Galleries, Urban Video Project, The Warehouse Gallery, City of Syracuse and XL Projects.

Altered Environments: Works of Willson Cummer and Laura Wellner
Szozda Gallery

Szozda Gallery
Delavan Center, 501 W. Fayette St., Syracuse

This show brings together two artists, Laura J. Wellner and Willson Cummer, who view environments in different ways but whose works compliment each other's.

Wellner always tries to create something 'extraordinary out of the ordinary elements of nature' in her mixed media paintings, thereby, one might say, seeing something that's not physically there. Fine art photographer Willson Cummer gives viewers another dimension to familiar landmarks by including man-made intrusions that 'explore humanity's place in the environment.'

Take No Prisoners: Political Cartoons Over Time and Place
Onondaga Historical Association

Price: Free
Onondaga Historical Association
321 Montgomery St., Syracuse

Three well-known Central New York political cartoonists, Joe Glisson, Tim Atseff, and Frank Cammuso, are the featured cartoonists for an exhibition entitled "Take No Prisoners: Political Cartoons Over Time and Place." With insightful humor, these artists and their historic predecessors produced a wide variety of editorial cartoons that illustrated important issues of their time. Starting with cartoons from the Civil War era through the present day, "Take No Prisoners" is an opportunity to experience historic subjects as the current events they once were, and to see how election issues of the past compare with those of the present-day.

TONY: 2012: "Manifest Destiny and the American West" and "Last House"
Onondaga Historical Association

Price: Free
Onondaga Historical Association
321 Montgomery St., Syracuse

These exhibits are mounted as part of the The Other New York (TONY): 2012, Syracuse's art biennial. OHA's TONY: 2012 exhibits are artistically presented interpretations of dynamic social trends that are part of the historic legacy of Central New York.

In a three-dimensional display employing nearly 1,000 images set in glass jars, "Manifest Destiny and the American West," an exhibit by Buffalo artist Robert Hirsch, asks the visitor to think about how our nation's geographic progression across the continent has shaped American culture. The desire to exploit the salt brine reserves on Onondaga Lake contributed to a westward migration of settlers across Central New York in the post-American Revolution era, while the construction of the Erie Canal enhanced this movement through the 19th century and enabled many travelers to reach lands in the farther reaches of the American continent.

"Last House" is a multi-channel video installation by media artist Carl Lee that explores the aesthetics and means of a house demolition in Buffalo. Cities like Buffalo and Syracuse are faced with a large number of abandoned houses. This video asks us to think about what we gain and lose in demolishing them. This installation will be accompanied by three paintings by Western New York artist Amy Greenan of vacant houses in Syracuse awaiting an uncertain future, including "Not Here, Not Now," her interpretation of 711 Tully Street, which seems poised to have a different fate on Syracuse's Near West Side than that if the house in Last House.

The exhibit includes Syracuse views taken by local photographers as well as nationally-marketed views, historic stereoscopes, books, and related 3-D ephemera. It also looks at the combined industries of photography, publishing, manufacturing and marketing that contributed to the enormous popularity of the stereograph.

Karl Schrag: Memories and Premonitions
Syracuse University Art Museum

Price: Free
Syracuse University Art Museum, Shaffer Art Building
Syracuse University, Syracuse

The Syracuse University Art Galleries is celebrating the career and life of Karl Schrag, American painter and printmaker, who would have been 100 years old this year. "Karl Schrag: Memories and Premonitions" is the first major examination of the artist's work since his death in 1995. The exhibition includes 70 original works of art by the influential artist, including paintings, prints and drawings.

Syracuse University has had a long and rewarding association with Karl Schrag and his family. It began in 1962 with a gift of a gouache painting titled "Coast in Autumn." Later the relationship grew with the first of numerous exhibitions, more gifts of artwork, and occasional lectures to students in the University's School of Art. Some 50 years later, S.U.'s art collection is much richer because of the 250-plus Karl Schrag artworks we maintain, and the continued support of Schrag Family.

2012 is also the centenary year of Karl Schrag's birth and gives us an opportunity to reinvestigate the talent, imagination, and sensitivity Schrag brought to his landscapes, still-life paintings, and portraits. A master of color, light, composition, and draftsmanship, Schrag captures nature and its great forces through an investigation of the lasting impressions each of us retain through experience. He engages his viewer with subtle mark making as well as with the bold calligraphic strokes so often associated with his work. His palette of almost Fauvist intensity adds dimension and passion to the landscapes he created.

Schrag's art career spanned more than 60 years and he had strong ties to the New York City art scene. After studying at the Art Students League, he joined S.W. Hayter's prestigious printmaking studio Atelier 17, working alongside artists Miró, Chagall and Jackson Pollock. Schrag was named director of the Atelier in 1950 and later began a long teaching career at Cooper Union, where he taught drawing and graphic arts from 1954-1968. Schrag had a direct impact on many of his students, including the Syracuse University-based artist Jerome Witkin. A student of Schrag at Cooper Union and a well-established contemporary artist, Witkin has commented on Schrags masterful handling of the landscape, and the evocative power of his vision.

The art selected for this exhibit will convey the artist's ability to see the landscape as if for the first time, the surprise of that special view, the recognition of his ability to feel wonder when looking at nature or figures, and the reward associated with seeing the world through his eyes.

Lynette Blake: Within and Beyond
Weeks Art Gallery at Baltimore Woods

Price: Free
Baltimore Woods Nature Center
4007 Bishop Hill Rd., Marcellus

Lynette Blake's oil paintings draw the viewer in through complex layers of shape and color. The use of overlapping imagery conveys a depth that extends deep below the surface of the canvas. Objects, whether used directly or evoked by abstract shapes, float in and out of light illuminating them with a pervasive warm glow. The effect is otherworldly -- a feeling of being outside time and space is conveyed.

Blake has exhibited her work throughout the Northeast, and is currently represented locally by the Szozda Gallery in Syracuse, as well as national venues. She studied art at Brown University in Rhode Island and currently resides in Upstate NY.

The exhibit, curated by Teresa Harris, architectural historian and project coordinator for the Marcel Breuer Digital Archive, showcases original drawings, photographs and documents from Breuer's long career.

Like many modern architects, Marcel Breuer found inspiration in the repetition characteristic of industrial processes, often relying on modular units or a standard kit of parts to create his buildings and interiors. The limits imposed by these systems stimulated subtle formal and spatial innovation so that no two designs were exactly alike, despite common components.

Redhouse

Former Redhouse Theater
219 S. West St., Syracuse

Scott Hutchison is a painter living in the Washington DC metro area. His work combines contemporary realism and animation. An exploration of the human figure continues to be the leitmotiv of Hutchison's work with a long-standing interest in self portraiture.

Hutchison says:
"My animations combine traditional painting and drawing techniques with digital technology to create animated portraits, which are displayed on small LCD panels, or projected, large-scale. Dozens of individual stills portray my face, changing only slightly from one image to the next. When the images are unified digitally, an animation is created. Each video is comprised of multiple painted or drawn self-portraits that, although similar, possess slight variations of color and treatment. When animated, the paint and mark move across the surface, resulting in a portrait that is in constant flux."

Faces, Forms and Illusions: Works by Scott Hutchison
Redhouse

Price: Free
Former Redhouse Theater
219 S. West St., Syracuse

Scott Hutchison is a painter living in the Washington DC metro area. His work combines contemporary realism and animation. An exploration of the human figure continues to be the leitmotiv of Hutchison's work with a long-standing interest in self portraiture.

Hutchison says:
"My animations combine traditional painting and drawing techniques with digital technology to create animated portraits, which are displayed on small LCD panels, or projected, large-scale. Dozens of individual stills portray my face, changing only slightly from one image to the next. When the images are unified digitally, an animation is created. Each video is comprised of multiple painted or drawn self-portraits that, although similar, possess slight variations of color and treatment. When animated, the paint and mark move across the surface, resulting in a portrait that is in constant flux."

Throughout Washington, DC, people of all ages, backgrounds, and nationalities are gardening side by side, growing vegetables, fruits and flowers in community gardens. Some are looking for basic sustenance, others for a way to remember their homelands, still others for a place to find a respite from their troubles. Through the voices of young people, senior citizens, immigrants, garden volunteers and educators, A Community of Gardeners explores the vital role of seven urban community gardens as sources of fresh, nutritious food, outdoor classrooms, places of healing, links to immigrants' native countries, centers of social interaction, and oases of beauty and calm in inner-city neighborhoods.

Lynette Blake: Within and Beyond
Weeks Art Gallery at Baltimore Woods

Price: Free
Baltimore Woods Nature Center
4007 Bishop Hill Rd., Marcellus

Lynette Blake's oil paintings draw the viewer in through complex layers of shape and color. The use of overlapping imagery conveys a depth that extends deep below the surface of the canvas. Objects, whether used directly or evoked by abstract shapes, float in and out of light illuminating them with a pervasive warm glow. The effect is otherworldly -- a feeling of being outside time and space is conveyed.

Blake has exhibited her work throughout the Northeast, and is currently represented locally by the Szozda Gallery in Syracuse, as well as national venues. She studied art at Brown University in Rhode Island and currently resides in Upstate NY.

Bird Library, 6th Floor
Syracuse University, Syracuse

The exhibit, curated by Teresa Harris, architectural historian and project coordinator for the Marcel Breuer Digital Archive, showcases original drawings, photographs and documents from Breuer's long career.

Like many modern architects, Marcel Breuer found inspiration in the repetition characteristic of industrial processes, often relying on modular units or a standard kit of parts to create his buildings and interiors. The limits imposed by these systems stimulated subtle formal and spatial innovation so that no two designs were exactly alike, despite common components.

TONY: 2012: "Manifest Destiny and the American West" and "Last House"
Onondaga Historical Association

Price: Free
Onondaga Historical Association
321 Montgomery St., Syracuse

These exhibits are mounted as part of the The Other New York (TONY): 2012, Syracuse's art biennial. OHA's TONY: 2012 exhibits are artistically presented interpretations of dynamic social trends that are part of the historic legacy of Central New York.

In a three-dimensional display employing nearly 1,000 images set in glass jars, "Manifest Destiny and the American West," an exhibit by Buffalo artist Robert Hirsch, asks the visitor to think about how our nation's geographic progression across the continent has shaped American culture. The desire to exploit the salt brine reserves on Onondaga Lake contributed to a westward migration of settlers across Central New York in the post-American Revolution era, while the construction of the Erie Canal enhanced this movement through the 19th century and enabled many travelers to reach lands in the farther reaches of the American continent.

"Last House" is a multi-channel video installation by media artist Carl Lee that explores the aesthetics and means of a house demolition in Buffalo. Cities like Buffalo and Syracuse are faced with a large number of abandoned houses. This video asks us to think about what we gain and lose in demolishing them. This installation will be accompanied by three paintings by Western New York artist Amy Greenan of vacant houses in Syracuse awaiting an uncertain future, including "Not Here, Not Now," her interpretation of 711 Tully Street, which seems poised to have a different fate on Syracuse's Near West Side than that if the house in Last House.

Onondaga Historical Association is proud to be one of 14 Central New York venues for TONY: 2012. TONY: 2012 is organized by the Everson Museum of Art in collaboration with ArtRage, Community Folk Art Center, Erie Canal Museum, Light Work, Onondaga Historical Association, Point of Contact, Rosamond Gifford Zoo, Stone Quarry Hill Art Park, SUArt Galleries, Urban Video Project, The Warehouse Gallery, City of Syracuse, and XL Projects.

This show brings together two artists, Laura J. Wellner and Willson Cummer, who view environments in different ways but whose works compliment each other's.

Wellner always tries to create something 'extraordinary out of the ordinary elements of nature' in her mixed media paintings, thereby, one might say, seeing something that's not physically there. Fine art photographer Willson Cummer gives viewers another dimension to familiar landmarks by including man-made intrusions that 'explore humanity's place in the environment.'

505 Hawley Ave., Syracuse

The Everson Biennial, titled "The Other New York: 2012," is being exhibited in community art galleries across Syracuse this year. ArtRage is honored to participate by exhibiting the work of four artists chosen in collaboration with the Everson Museum.

Ben Altman, Neil Chowdhury, Bob Gates and Paul Pearce, the four photographers whose works comprise this exhibit, present work that, while distinctive, shares a key characteristic. All are documentary photographers who are a bit wary of being seen as truth tellers. Fully understanding that the "objective photograph" is a myth, their photographic work -- both in the process of its creation and the images presented -- casts into doubt our traditional notions of documentation, objectivity and veracity. Nonetheless, each photographer is visualizing a certain truth, which may be one we do not know, or one that we prefer to avoid knowing. Participating in the artist's unflinching gaze, we become complicit witnesses to situations -- torture, poverty, social class, and the effects of war -- often conveniently rendered invisible.

Moby Dick
Syracuse Stage
Peter Amster, director

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

Alive with a soundscape of 16 authentic sea shanties and performed by an ensemble of nine, this highly physical adaption cuts to the core of Melville's searing narrative and plays with the fury of a Nantucket sleigh ride. A young man seeks adventure on a whaling vessel and finds himself a pawn in an obsessive pursuit of vengeance that threatens death and destruction for all. Director Peter Amster returns to guide the ensemble in this thrilling and critically acclaimed telling of a classic American tale. Adapted for the stage by Julian Rad from the book by Herman Melville

Windows Project: TONY 2012
The Warehouse Gallery

The Warehouse Gallery
350 W. Fayette St., Syracuse

For this project, Jeffrey Einhorn created a site-specific installation "A Portrait of the Artist as a Giant Deflating Head" to address the fine line between performance art and sculpture while emphasizing wittily the unstable state of things or a disorder of a system.

This Window Projects exhibition is part of The Other New York: 2012, a community-wide, multi-venue biennial exhibition organized by the Everson Museum of Art in collaboration with 14 Syracuse partner art organizations to highlight artists across Upstate New York, with a special focus on Central New York and the surrounding counties.

Lynette Blake: Within and Beyond
Weeks Art Gallery at Baltimore Woods

Price: Free
Baltimore Woods Nature Center
4007 Bishop Hill Rd., Marcellus

Lynette Blake's oil paintings draw the viewer in through complex layers of shape and color. The use of overlapping imagery conveys a depth that extends deep below the surface of the canvas. Objects, whether used directly or evoked by abstract shapes, float in and out of light illuminating them with a pervasive warm glow. The effect is otherworldly -- a feeling of being outside time and space is conveyed.

Blake has exhibited her work throughout the Northeast, and is currently represented locally by the Szozda Gallery in Syracuse, as well as national venues. She studied art at Brown University in Rhode Island and currently resides in Upstate NY.

Assembly-line Architecture: Repetition and Innovation in the Work of Marcel Breuer
Syracuse University Library Special Collections Research Center

Price: Free
Bird Library, 6th Floor
Syracuse University, Syracuse

The exhibit, curated by Teresa Harris, architectural historian and project coordinator for the Marcel Breuer Digital Archive, showcases original drawings, photographs and documents from Breuer's long career.

Like many modern architects, Marcel Breuer found inspiration in the repetition characteristic of industrial processes, often relying on modular units or a standard kit of parts to create his buildings and interiors. The limits imposed by these systems stimulated subtle formal and spatial innovation so that no two designs were exactly alike, despite common components.

Three well-known Central New York political cartoonists, Joe Glisson, Tim Atseff, and Frank Cammuso, are the featured cartoonists for an exhibition entitled "Take No Prisoners: Political Cartoons Over Time and Place." With insightful humor, these artists and their historic predecessors produced a wide variety of editorial cartoons that illustrated important issues of their time. Starting with cartoons from the Civil War era through the present day, "Take No Prisoners" is an opportunity to experience historic subjects as the current events they once were, and to see how election issues of the past compare with those of the present-day.

TONY: 2012: "Manifest Destiny and the American West" and "Last House"
Onondaga Historical Association

Price: Free
Onondaga Historical Association
321 Montgomery St., Syracuse

These exhibits are mounted as part of the The Other New York (TONY): 2012, Syracuse's art biennial. OHA's TONY: 2012 exhibits are artistically presented interpretations of dynamic social trends that are part of the historic legacy of Central New York.

In a three-dimensional display employing nearly 1,000 images set in glass jars, "Manifest Destiny and the American West," an exhibit by Buffalo artist Robert Hirsch, asks the visitor to think about how our nation's geographic progression across the continent has shaped American culture. The desire to exploit the salt brine reserves on Onondaga Lake contributed to a westward migration of settlers across Central New York in the post-American Revolution era, while the construction of the Erie Canal enhanced this movement through the 19th century and enabled many travelers to reach lands in the farther reaches of the American continent.

"Last House" is a multi-channel video installation by media artist Carl Lee that explores the aesthetics and means of a house demolition in Buffalo. Cities like Buffalo and Syracuse are faced with a large number of abandoned houses. This video asks us to think about what we gain and lose in demolishing them. This installation will be accompanied by three paintings by Western New York artist Amy Greenan of vacant houses in Syracuse awaiting an uncertain future, including "Not Here, Not Now," her interpretation of 711 Tully Street, which seems poised to have a different fate on Syracuse's Near West Side than that if the house in Last House.

Onondaga Historical Association is proud to be one of 14 Central New York venues for TONY: 2012. TONY: 2012 is organized by the Everson Museum of Art in collaboration with ArtRage, Community Folk Art Center, Erie Canal Museum, Light Work, Onondaga Historical Association, Point of Contact, Rosamond Gifford Zoo, Stone Quarry Hill Art Park, SUArt Galleries, Urban Video Project, The Warehouse Gallery, City of Syracuse, and XL Projects.

Faces, Forms and Illusions: Works by Scott Hutchison
Redhouse

Price: Free
Former Redhouse Theater
219 S. West St., Syracuse

Scott Hutchison is a painter living in the Washington DC metro area. His work combines contemporary realism and animation. An exploration of the human figure continues to be the leitmotiv of Hutchison's work with a long-standing interest in self portraiture.

Hutchison says:
"My animations combine traditional painting and drawing techniques with digital technology to create animated portraits, which are displayed on small LCD panels, or projected, large-scale. Dozens of individual stills portray my face, changing only slightly from one image to the next. When the images are unified digitally, an animation is created. Each video is comprised of multiple painted or drawn self-portraits that, although similar, possess slight variations of color and treatment. When animated, the paint and mark move across the surface, resulting in a portrait that is in constant flux."

Altered Environments: Works of Willson Cummer and Laura Wellner
Szozda Gallery

Szozda Gallery
Delavan Center, 501 W. Fayette St., Syracuse

This show brings together two artists, Laura J. Wellner and Willson Cummer, who view environments in different ways but whose works compliment each other's.

Wellner always tries to create something 'extraordinary out of the ordinary elements of nature' in her mixed media paintings, thereby, one might say, seeing something that's not physically there. Fine art photographer Willson Cummer gives viewers another dimension to familiar landmarks by including man-made intrusions that 'explore humanity's place in the environment.'

"Lov U" is a multimedia installation by Senga Nengudi.

Colorado-based Senga Nengudi is a key figure of the Black Arts Movement in the 1970s and 1980s. Known primarily for performance-based art installations, her work focuses on movement and the human body, is multidisciplinary in nature and international in scope, with cultural references to Africa, the African Diaspora, and Asia. For her multimedia, performance-based exhibition "Lov U," Nengudi explores the physical senses of being human, and includes photographs and video to reflect on the essence of love. Drawn to discarded, everyday materials, the ephemerality of Nengudi's work is a metaphor for life's transience.

The Everson Biennial, titled "The Other New York: 2012," is being exhibited in community art galleries across Syracuse this year. ArtRage is honored to participate by exhibiting the work of four artists chosen in collaboration with the Everson Museum.

Ben Altman, Neil Chowdhury, Bob Gates and Paul Pearce, the four photographers whose works comprise this exhibit, present work that, while distinctive, shares a key characteristic. All are documentary photographers who are a bit wary of being seen as truth tellers. Fully understanding that the "objective photograph" is a myth, their photographic work -- both in the process of its creation and the images presented -- casts into doubt our traditional notions of documentation, objectivity and veracity. Nonetheless, each photographer is visualizing a certain truth, which may be one we do not know, or one that we prefer to avoid knowing. Participating in the artist's unflinching gaze, we become complicit witnesses to situations -- torture, poverty, social class, and the effects of war -- often conveniently rendered invisible.

Price: Free
Point of Contact Gallery
350 W. Fayette St., Syracuse

A selection of new and previous works on video and drawings by artist Tom Sherman.

Reflecting on the work, the artist states: "The representation may be almost like a constellation of moments of awareness. It's impossible to summarize what you think in a video, but it is possible to create a veil of a series of works that contribute to the aggregate consciousness of a society, like a transparent curtain of events, of sub consciousness."

Sherman is a Professor of Arts, Design, and Transmedia at Syracuse University. He was a founding co-editor of Fuse magazine, Toronto (1980); founding director of Media Arts for the Canada Council for the Arts, Ottawa (1983-87), and co-founder of Nerve Theory, an international performance art/recording collaborative (1997). In 1980, he represented Canada at the Venice Biennale, and in 1986, was appointed international commissioner for that same Biennale that is one of the worlds major contemporary art exhibitions every two years in Venice, Italy. Among numerous distinctions, Sherman received the Bell Canada prize for excellence in video art in 2003, and Canada's Governor General's Award in Visual and Media Arts in 2010.

Urban Video Project

Price: Free
Everson Museum of Art Plaza
401 Harrison St., Syracuse

The Everson is I.M. Pei's first museum commission. His art museums are commonly seen as art objects for art objects. They are sculptures in the landscape. Shortly after the Everson, Pei built the Johnson Museum of Art in Ithaca. In this site-specific video installation, images of the form and materials of both art museums are projected onto the Everson Museum. The images capture the light, surfaces, and depth of the architecture. The video uses images from two different buildings, analyzing how Pei's ideas bridge individual communities. These disparate places are abstractly connected through the architect's development. The plaza is not only infused with the presence of the Pei's forms, but also the conversation that takes place through his practice.

This video by Karen Brummund is part of The Other New York: 2012, a community-wide, multi-venue biennial exhibition that is the result of a major collaboration among 14 art organizations in Syracuse. This ambitious project aims

Lynette Blake's oil paintings draw the viewer in through complex layers of shape and color. The use of overlapping imagery conveys a depth that extends deep below the surface of the canvas. Objects, whether used directly or evoked by abstract shapes, float in and out of light illuminating them with a pervasive warm glow. The effect is otherworldly -- a feeling of being outside time and space is conveyed.

Blake has exhibited her work throughout the Northeast, and is currently represented locally by the Szozda Gallery in Syracuse, as well as national venues. She studied art at Brown University in Rhode Island and currently resides in Upstate NY.

Meditation on Video (&) Language, a show by Tom Sherman
Point of Contact Gallery

Price: Free
Point of Contact Gallery
350 W. Fayette St., Syracuse

A selection of new and previous works on video and drawings by artist Tom Sherman.

Reflecting on the work, the artist states: "The representation may be almost like a constellation of moments of awareness. It's impossible to summarize what you think in a video, but it is possible to create a veil of a series of works that contribute to the aggregate consciousness of a society, like a transparent curtain of events, of sub consciousness."

Sherman is a Professor of Arts, Design, and Transmedia at Syracuse University. He was a founding co-editor of Fuse magazine, Toronto (1980); founding director of Media Arts for the Canada Council for the Arts, Ottawa (1983-87), and co-founder of Nerve Theory, an international performance art/recording collaborative (1997). In 1980, he represented Canada at the Venice Biennale, and in 1986, was appointed international commissioner for that same Biennale that is one of the worlds major contemporary art exhibitions every two years in Venice, Italy. Among numerous distinctions, Sherman received the Bell Canada prize for excellence in video art in 2003, and Canada's Governor General's Award in Visual and Media Arts in 2010.

Assembly-line Architecture: Repetition and Innovation in the Work of Marcel Breuer
Syracuse University Library Special Collections Research Center

Price: Free
Bird Library, 6th Floor
Syracuse University, Syracuse

The exhibit, curated by Teresa Harris, architectural historian and project coordinator for the Marcel Breuer Digital Archive, showcases original drawings, photographs and documents from Breuer's long career.

Like many modern architects, Marcel Breuer found inspiration in the repetition characteristic of industrial processes, often relying on modular units or a standard kit of parts to create his buildings and interiors. The limits imposed by these systems stimulated subtle formal and spatial innovation so that no two designs were exactly alike, despite common components.

Since OHA's inception, it has amassed a collection of over 2,000 stereographs, or stereo views, of Onondaga County and beyond. Archived in the research holdings, these 3-D photographs have never before been exhibited. Guest curator Colleen Woolpert offers an overview of the collection, providing insight into the little known history of stereo photography while taking us back into the past with the aid of exhibition stereoscopes. The exhibit includes Syracuse views taken by local photographers as well as nationally-marketed views, historic stereoscopes, books, and related 3-D ephemera. It also looks at the combined industries of photography, publishing, manufacturing and marketing that contributed to the enormous popularity of the stereograph.

TONY: 2012: "Manifest Destiny and the American West" and "Last House"
Onondaga Historical Association

Price: Free
Onondaga Historical Association
321 Montgomery St., Syracuse

These exhibits are mounted as part of the The Other New York (TONY): 2012, Syracuse's art biennial. OHA's TONY: 2012 exhibits are artistically presented interpretations of dynamic social trends that are part of the historic legacy of Central New York.

In a three-dimensional display employing nearly 1,000 images set in glass jars, "Manifest Destiny and the American West," an exhibit by Buffalo artist Robert Hirsch, asks the visitor to think about how our nation's geographic progression across the continent has shaped American culture. The desire to exploit the salt brine reserves on Onondaga Lake contributed to a westward migration of settlers across Central New York in the post-American Revolution era, while the construction of the Erie Canal enhanced this movement through the 19th century and enabled many travelers to reach lands in the farther reaches of the American continent.

"Last House" is a multi-channel video installation by media artist Carl Lee that explores the aesthetics and means of a house demolition in Buffalo. Cities like Buffalo and Syracuse are faced with a large number of abandoned houses. This video asks us to think about what we gain and lose in demolishing them. This installation will be accompanied by three paintings by Western New York artist Amy Greenan of vacant houses in Syracuse awaiting an uncertain future, including "Not Here, Not Now," her interpretation of 711 Tully Street, which seems poised to have a different fate on Syracuse's Near West Side than that if the house in Last House.

Onondaga Historical Association is proud to be one of 14 Central New York venues for TONY: 2012. TONY: 2012 is organized by the Everson Museum of Art in collaboration with ArtRage, Community Folk Art Center, Erie Canal Museum, Light Work, Onondaga Historical Association, Point of Contact, Rosamond Gifford Zoo, Stone Quarry Hill Art Park, SUArt Galleries, Urban Video Project, The Warehouse Gallery, City of Syracuse, and XL Projects.

Three well-known Central New York political cartoonists, Joe Glisson, Tim Atseff, and Frank Cammuso, are the featured cartoonists for an exhibition entitled "Take No Prisoners: Political Cartoons Over Time and Place." With insightful humor, these artists and their historic predecessors produced a wide variety of editorial cartoons that illustrated important issues of their time.

Faces, Forms and Illusions: Works by Scott Hutchison
Redhouse

Price: Free
Former Redhouse Theater
219 S. West St., Syracuse

Scott Hutchison is a painter living in the Washington DC metro area. His work combines contemporary realism and animation. An exploration of the human figure continues to be the leitmotiv of Hutchison's work with a long-standing interest in self portraiture.

Hutchison says:
"My animations combine traditional painting and drawing techniques with digital technology to create animated portraits, which are displayed on small LCD panels, or projected, large-scale. Dozens of individual stills portray my face, changing only slightly from one image to the next. When the images are unified digitally, an animation is created. Each video is comprised of multiple painted or drawn self-portraits that, although similar, possess slight variations of color and treatment. When animated, the paint and mark move across the surface, resulting in a portrait that is in constant flux."

Altered Environments: Works of Willson Cummer and Laura Wellner
Szozda Gallery

Szozda Gallery
Delavan Center, 501 W. Fayette St., Syracuse

This show brings together two artists, Laura J. Wellner and Willson Cummer, who view environments in different ways but whose works compliment each other's.

Wellner always tries to create something 'extraordinary out of the ordinary elements of nature' in her mixed media paintings, thereby, one might say, seeing something that's not physically there. Fine art photographer Willson Cummer gives viewers another dimension to familiar landmarks by including man-made intrusions that 'explore humanity's place in the environment.'

"Lov U" is a multimedia installation by Senga Nengudi.

Colorado-based Senga Nengudi is a key figure of the Black Arts Movement in the 1970s and 1980s. Known primarily for performance-based art installations, her work focuses on movement and the human body, is multidisciplinary in nature and international in scope, with cultural references to Africa, the African Diaspora, and Asia. For her multimedia, performance-based exhibition "Lov U," Nengudi explores the physical senses of being human, and includes photographs and video to reflect on the essence of love. Drawn to discarded, everyday materials, the ephemerality of Nengudi's work is a metaphor for life's transience.

ArtRage Gallery
505 Hawley Ave., Syracuse

The Everson Biennial, titled "The Other New York: 2012," is being exhibited in community art galleries across Syracuse this year. ArtRage is honored to participate by exhibiting the work of four artists chosen in collaboration with the Everson Museum.

Ben Altman, Neil Chowdhury, Bob Gates and Paul Pearce, the four photographers whose works comprise this exhibit, present work that, while distinctive, shares a key characteristic. All are documentary photographers who are a bit wary of being seen as truth tellers. Fully understanding that the "objective photograph" is a myth, their photographic work -- both in the process of its creation and the images presented -- casts into doubt our traditional notions of documentation, objectivity and veracity. Nonetheless, each photographer is visualizing a certain truth, which may be one we do not know, or one that we prefer to avoid knowing. Participating in the artist's unflinching gaze, we become complicit witnesses to situations -- torture, poverty, social class, and the effects of war -- often conveniently rendered invisible.

Urban Video Project

Price: Free
Everson Museum of Art Plaza
401 Harrison St., Syracuse

The Everson is I.M. Pei's first museum commission. His art museums are commonly seen as art objects for art objects. They are sculptures in the landscape. Shortly after the Everson, Pei built the Johnson Museum of Art in Ithaca. In this site-specific video installation, images of the form and materials of both art museums are projected onto the Everson Museum. The images capture the light, surfaces, and depth of the architecture. The video uses images from two different buildings, analyzing how Pei's ideas bridge individual communities. These disparate places are abstractly connected through the architect's development. The plaza is not only infused with the presence of the Pei's forms, but also the conversation that takes place through his practice.

This video by Karen Brummund is part of The Other New York: 2012, a community-wide, multi-venue biennial exhibition that is the result of a major collaboration among 14 art organizations in Syracuse. This ambitious project aims
to highlight the rich talent of artists across Upstate New York, with a special focus on Central New York.

Faces, Forms and Illusions: Works by Scott Hutchison
Redhouse

Price: Free
Former Redhouse Theater
219 S. West St., Syracuse

Scott Hutchison is a painter living in the Washington DC metro area. His work combines contemporary realism and animation. An exploration of the human figure continues to be the leitmotiv of Hutchison's work with a long-standing interest in self portraiture.

Hutchison says:
"My animations combine traditional painting and drawing techniques with digital technology to create animated portraits, which are displayed on small LCD panels, or projected, large-scale. Dozens of individual stills portray my face, changing only slightly from one image to the next. When the images are unified digitally, an animation is created. Each video is comprised of multiple painted or drawn self-portraits that, although similar, possess slight variations of color and treatment. When animated, the paint and mark move across the surface, resulting in a portrait that is in constant flux."

Altered Environments: Works of Willson Cummer and Laura Wellner
Szozda Gallery

Szozda Gallery
Delavan Center, 501 W. Fayette St., Syracuse

This show brings together two artists, Laura J. Wellner and Willson Cummer, who view environments in different ways but whose works compliment each other's.

Wellner always tries to create something 'extraordinary out of the ordinary elements of nature' in her mixed media paintings, thereby, one might say, seeing something that's not physically there. Fine art photographer Willson Cummer gives viewers another dimension to familiar landmarks by including man-made intrusions that 'explore humanity's place in the environment.'

Three well-known Central New York political cartoonists, Joe Glisson, Tim Atseff, and Frank Cammuso, are the featured cartoonists for an exhibition entitled "Take No Prisoners: Political Cartoons Over Time and Place." With insightful humor, these artists and their historic predecessors produced a wide variety of editorial cartoons that illustrated important issues of their time.

TONY: 2012: "Manifest Destiny and the American West" and "Last House"
Onondaga Historical Association

Price: Free
Onondaga Historical Association
321 Montgomery St., Syracuse

These exhibits are mounted as part of the The Other New York (TONY): 2012, Syracuse's art biennial. OHA's TONY: 2012 exhibits are artistically presented interpretations of dynamic social trends that are part of the historic legacy of Central New York.

In a three-dimensional display employing nearly 1,000 images set in glass jars, "Manifest Destiny and the American West," an exhibit by Buffalo artist Robert Hirsch, asks the visitor to think about how our nation's geographic progression across the continent has shaped American culture. The desire to exploit the salt brine reserves on Onondaga Lake contributed to a westward migration of settlers across Central New York in the post-American Revolution era, while the construction of the Erie Canal enhanced this movement through the 19th century and enabled many travelers to reach lands in the farther reaches of the American continent.

"Last House" is a multi-channel video installation by media artist Carl Lee that explores the aesthetics and means of a house demolition in Buffalo. Cities like Buffalo and Syracuse are faced with a large number of abandoned houses. This video asks us to think about what we gain and lose in demolishing them. This installation will be accompanied by three paintings by Western New York artist Amy Greenan of vacant houses in Syracuse awaiting an uncertain future, including "Not Here, Not Now," her interpretation of 711 Tully Street, which seems poised to have a different fate on Syracuse's Near West Side than that if the house in Last House.

Onondaga Historical Association is proud to be one of 14 Central New York venues for TONY: 2012. TONY: 2012 is organized by the Everson Museum of Art in collaboration with ArtRage, Community Folk Art Center, Erie Canal Museum, Light Work, Onondaga Historical Association, Point of Contact, Rosamond Gifford Zoo, Stone Quarry Hill Art Park, SUArt Galleries, Urban Video Project, The Warehouse Gallery, City of Syracuse, and XL Projects.

The exhibit includes Syracuse views taken by local photographers as well as nationally-marketed views, historic stereoscopes, books, and related 3-D ephemera. It also looks at the combined industries of photography, publishing, manufacturing and marketing that contributed to the enormous popularity of the stereograph.

ArtRage Gallery

Price: Free
ArtRage Gallery
505 Hawley Ave., Syracuse

The Everson Biennial, titled "The Other New York: 2012," is being exhibited in community art galleries across Syracuse this year. ArtRage is honored to participate by exhibiting the work of four artists chosen in collaboration with the Everson Museum.

Ben Altman, Neil Chowdhury, Bob Gates and Paul Pearce, the four photographers whose works comprise this exhibit, present work that, while distinctive, shares a key characteristic. All are documentary photographers who are a bit wary of being seen as truth tellers. Fully understanding that the "objective photograph" is a myth, their photographic work -- both in the process of its creation and the images presented -- casts into doubt our traditional notions of documentation, objectivity and veracity. Nonetheless, each photographer is visualizing a certain truth, which may be one we do not know, or one that we prefer to avoid knowing. Participating in the artist's unflinching gaze, we become complicit witnesses to situations -- torture, poverty, social class, and the effects of war -- often conveniently rendered invisible.

Lov U
The Warehouse Gallery

The Warehouse Gallery
350 W. Fayette St., Syracuse

"Lov U" is a multimedia installation by Senga Nengudi.

Colorado-based Senga Nengudi is a key figure of the Black Arts Movement in the 1970s and 1980s. Known primarily for performance-based art installations, her work focuses on movement and the human body, is multidisciplinary in nature and international in scope, with cultural references to Africa, the African Diaspora, and Asia. For her multimedia, performance-based exhibition "Lov U," Nengudi explores the physical senses of being human, and includes photographs and video to reflect on the essence of love. Drawn to discarded, everyday materials, the ephemerality of Nengudi's work is a metaphor for life's transience.

TONY 2012: Karen Brummund
Urban Video Project

Price: Free
Everson Museum of Art Plaza
401 Harrison St., Syracuse

The Everson is I.M. Pei's first museum commission. His art museums are commonly seen as art objects for art objects. They are sculptures in the landscape. Shortly after the Everson, Pei built the Johnson Museum of Art in Ithaca. In this site-specific video installation, images of the form and materials of both art museums are projected onto the Everson Museum. The images capture the light, surfaces, and depth of the architecture. The video uses images from two different buildings, analyzing how Pei's ideas bridge individual communities. These disparate places are abstractly connected through the architect's development. The plaza is not only infused with the presence of the Pei's forms, but also the conversation that takes place through his practice.

This video by Karen Brummund is part of The Other New York: 2012, a community-wide, multi-venue biennial exhibition that is the result of a major collaboration among 14 art organizations in Syracuse. This ambitious project aims
to highlight the rich talent of artists across Upstate New York, with a special focus on Central New York.

Altered Environments: Works of Willson Cummer and Laura Wellner
Szozda Gallery

Szozda Gallery
Delavan Center, 501 W. Fayette St., Syracuse

This show brings together two artists, Laura J. Wellner and Willson Cummer, who view environments in different ways but whose works compliment each other's.

Wellner always tries to create something 'extraordinary out of the ordinary elements of nature' in her mixed media paintings, thereby, one might say, seeing something that's not physically there. Fine art photographer Willson Cummer gives viewers another dimension to familiar landmarks by including man-made intrusions that 'explore humanity's place in the environment.'

Sight Unseen: Stereographs from the OHA Collection, 1850-1930
Onondaga Historical Association

Onondaga Historical Association
321 Montgomery St., Syracuse

Since OHA's inception, it has amassed a collection of over 2,000 stereographs, or stereo views, of Onondaga County and beyond. Archived in the research holdings, these 3-D photographs have never before been exhibited. Guest curator Colleen Woolpert offers an overview of the collection, providing insight into the little known history of stereo photography while taking us back into the past with the aid of exhibition stereoscopes. The exhibit includes Syracuse views taken by local photographers as well as nationally-marketed views, historic stereoscopes, books, and related 3-D ephemera. It also looks at the combined industries of photography, publishing, manufacturing and marketing that contributed to the enormous popularity of the stereograph.

TONY: 2012: "Manifest Destiny and the American West" and "Last House"
Onondaga Historical Association

Price: Free
Onondaga Historical Association
321 Montgomery St., Syracuse

These exhibits are mounted as part of the The Other New York (TONY): 2012, Syracuse's art biennial. OHA's TONY: 2012 exhibits are artistically presented interpretations of dynamic social trends that are part of the historic legacy of Central New York.

In a three-dimensional display employing nearly 1,000 images set in glass jars, "Manifest Destiny and the American West," an exhibit by Buffalo artist Robert Hirsch, asks the visitor to think about how our nation's geographic progression across the continent has shaped American culture. The desire to exploit the salt brine reserves on Onondaga Lake contributed to a westward migration of settlers across Central New York in the post-American Revolution era, while the construction of the Erie Canal enhanced this movement through the 19th century and enabled many travelers to reach lands in the farther reaches of the American continent.

"Last House" is a multi-channel video installation by media artist Carl Lee that explores the aesthetics and means of a house demolition in Buffalo. Cities like Buffalo and Syracuse are faced with a large number of abandoned houses. This video asks us to think about what we gain and lose in demolishing them. This installation will be accompanied by three paintings by Western New York artist Amy Greenan of vacant houses in Syracuse awaiting an uncertain future, including "Not Here, Not Now," her interpretation of 711 Tully Street, which seems poised to have a different fate on Syracuse's Near West Side than that if the house in Last House.

Onondaga Historical Association is proud to be one of 14 Central New York venues for TONY: 2012. TONY: 2012 is organized by the Everson Museum of Art in collaboration with ArtRage, Community Folk Art Center, Erie Canal Museum, Light Work, Onondaga Historical Association, Point of Contact, Rosamond Gifford Zoo, Stone Quarry Hill Art Park, SUArt Galleries, Urban Video Project, The Warehouse Gallery, City of Syracuse, and XL Projects.

Three well-known Central New York political cartoonists, Joe Glisson, Tim Atseff, and Frank Cammuso, are the featured cartoonists for an exhibition entitled "Take No Prisoners: Political Cartoons Over Time and Place." With insightful humor, these artists and their historic predecessors produced a wide variety of editorial cartoons that illustrated important issues of their time. Starting with cartoons from the Civil War era through the present day, "Take No Prisoners" is an opportunity to experience historic subjects as the current events they once were, and to see how election issues of the past compare with those of the present-day.
