Pick & Mix
Everson Museum of Art

Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St., Syracuse

Spring 2023 marks the beginning of a massive project that will convert an area adjacent to the ceramics gallery, which previously held paintings and prints, into dedicated ceramics storage. To accomplish this, we will close a portion of the ceramics gallery to make room for all the sorting and organizing that is to come. More than 200 paintings will come out of storage and hang salon-style in the Everson's upstairs galleries for the exhibition, Off the Rack.

In the face of space limitations like these, most museums would offer you less art — but that is not the Everson way. Instead, we offer you Pick & Mix, a cornucopia of five fabulous exhibitions under one banner. Pick & Mix highlights the vitality of the Museum's mission to gather works that document the ways that artists draw inspiration from their cultures, as well as the ways that artists give back. Ceramics are an an ideal lens to examine the gender roles, politics, and material culture of any given moment.

Off the Rack
Everson Museum of Art

Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St., Syracuse

"Off the Rack" is the happy by-product of a major renovation of the Everson's on-site art storage.

As hundreds of paintings and framed works are displaced from their racks while renovations take place, the public has an unprecedented opportunity to view objects that have been in deep storage for years, never-before-seen recent acquisitions, and some perennial favorites — all hung together salon-style in our exhibition galleries.

This smorgasbord of paintings and works on paper showcases the breadth and depth of the Museum's collections and provides a glimpse into the world of collections management and care.

Everson Museum of Art

Everson Museum of Art

He attended Pratt Munson-Williams-Proctor, the New York State College of Ceramics at Alfred University, and received his Masters in Fine Art from Tulane University in New Orleans.

A Little Bit of Syracuse
Everson Museum of Art

Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St., Syracuse

Drawing on the visual narrative techniques of Japanese graphic novels and traditional Chinese landscape painting, students in the Syracuse University School of Architecture developed A Little Bit of Syracuse, an artistic tableau of the city.

Consisting of an 80-foot scroll drawing and 80 hand-made models of local buildings, the exhibition is a narrative study of the often-overlooked structures that form the backdrop of everyday life in Syracuse. Under the direction of visiting studio professors Li Han and Hu Yan, principals of acclaimed Beijing-based Drawing Architecture Studio, 10 students explored the city, each selecting eight normal, unremarkable buildings — coffee shops, laundromats, residences, etc. — to use as architectural elements in their visual narrative of the city.

Those familiar with Syracuse will immediately recognize many, if not all, the building models — the Dunkin Donuts drive-through, CNY Jazz Central, the Byrne Dairy Deli and Convenience Store.

These and other familiar structures can also be identified in the Syracuse cityscape depicted in the 80-foot scroll drawing, which stitches together each building into a visual story that is at once both realistic and abstract, familiar and unfamiliar.

Price: Free
City Hall Commons Atrium
201 East Washington St., Syracuse

This inaugural exhibit features a multidisciplinary selection of local artists, each of whom received an award from the Arts and Culture Recovery Fund, a grant program administered by CNY Arts.

We invite you to celebrate the artistry and resilience of our Central New York creative community! Together, we are all Syracuse Strong.

Syracuse University Art Museum, Shaffer Art Building
Syracuse University, Syracuse

The exhibition will feature the ceramic works by Onondaga artist Peter B. Jones that comment on and actively resist the impact of colonialism on Haudenosaunee communities, past and present.

Making a Global Pre-Modern World
Syracuse University Art Museum

Syracuse University Art Museum, Shaffer Art Building
Syracuse University, Syracuse

Drawing from the museum's collections, this exhibition focuses on select moments in the global histories from the 9th through the 19th centuries. The included artworks, many of which are on view in the gallery for the first time, complicate ideas of empire, highlight the importance of trade, and foreground how cross-cultural influences inform artistic practices.

Scriptorium con Safos: Syracuse
Syracuse University Art Museum

Syracuse University Art Museum, Shaffer Art Building
Syracuse University, Syracuse

Artist and art historian Josh T Franco stages a highly personal intervention in the Museum's permanent collection galleries by developing the exhibition checklist and staging performances to activate the space. He takes on the fundamental method of compare and contrast, as championed by the 19th-century Swiss art historian Heinrich Wölfflin, in order to consider his place within the discipline. In doing so, he invites museum visitors, especially Syracuse University students, to consider their relationships to their fields of study.

What is left out, what is included, what are the lies. And who gets celebrated."

This exhibition, curated by Professor Jeffrey Mayer and featuring the Sue Ann Genet Costume Collection, addresses the effect that Piet Mondrian's utopian neoplastic art has had on design and fashion in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.

Mondrian (1872-1944) was a visionary Dutch painter known for pioneering the De Stijl movement. His iconic grid-based compositions using only straight lines, primary colors plus black, white and grey, transformed the art world. His work embodies simplicity, harmony, and a universal language of abstraction.

The exhibition features not only fashion from the 1980s and 1990s but is also filled with additional "design" objects that have been influenced by Mondrian's work, including dinnerware from Kate Spade; toys from Mattel, LOL and Thomas the Train; sneakers by Nike; and packaging from the beauty brand L'Oreal's Studio Line.

"Off the Rack" is the happy by-product of a major renovation of the Everson's on-site art storage.

As hundreds of paintings and framed works are displaced from their racks while renovations take place, the public has an unprecedented opportunity to view objects that have been in deep storage for years, never-before-seen recent acquisitions, and some perennial favorites — all hung together salon-style in our exhibition galleries.

This smorgasbord of paintings and works on paper showcases the breadth and depth of the Museum's collections and provides a glimpse into the world of collections management and care.

Spring 2023 marks the beginning of a massive project that will convert an area adjacent to the ceramics gallery, which previously held paintings and prints, into dedicated ceramics storage. To accomplish this, we will close a portion of the ceramics gallery to make room for all the sorting and organizing that is to come. More than 200 paintings will come out of storage and hang salon-style in the Everson's upstairs galleries for the exhibition, Off the Rack.

In the face of space limitations like these, most museums would offer you less art — but that is not the Everson way. Instead, we offer you Pick & Mix, a cornucopia of five fabulous exhibitions under one banner. Pick & Mix highlights the vitality of the Museum's mission to gather works that document the ways that artists draw inspiration from their cultures, as well as the ways that artists give back. Ceramics are an an ideal lens to examine the gender roles, politics, and material culture of any given moment.

A Little Bit of Syracuse
Everson Museum of Art

Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St., Syracuse

Drawing on the visual narrative techniques of Japanese graphic novels and traditional Chinese landscape painting, students in the Syracuse University School of Architecture developed A Little Bit of Syracuse, an artistic tableau of the city.

Consisting of an 80-foot scroll drawing and 80 hand-made models of local buildings, the exhibition is a narrative study of the often-overlooked structures that form the backdrop of everyday life in Syracuse. Under the direction of visiting studio professors Li Han and Hu Yan, principals of acclaimed Beijing-based Drawing Architecture Studio, 10 students explored the city, each selecting eight normal, unremarkable buildings — coffee shops, laundromats, residences, etc. — to use as architectural elements in their visual narrative of the city.

Those familiar with Syracuse will immediately recognize many, if not all, the building models — the Dunkin Donuts drive-through, CNY Jazz Central, the Byrne Dairy Deli and Convenience Store.

These and other familiar structures can also be identified in the Syracuse cityscape depicted in the 80-foot scroll drawing, which stitches together each building into a visual story that is at once both realistic and abstract, familiar and unfamiliar.

Pick & Mix
Everson Museum of Art

Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St., Syracuse

Spring 2023 marks the beginning of a massive project that will convert an area adjacent to the ceramics gallery, which previously held paintings and prints, into dedicated ceramics storage. To accomplish this, we will close a portion of the ceramics gallery to make room for all the sorting and organizing that is to come. More than 200 paintings will come out of storage and hang salon-style in the Everson's upstairs galleries for the exhibition, Off the Rack.

In the face of space limitations like these, most museums would offer you less art — but that is not the Everson way. Instead, we offer you Pick & Mix, a cornucopia of five fabulous exhibitions under one banner. Pick & Mix highlights the vitality of the Museum's mission to gather works that document the ways that artists draw inspiration from their cultures, as well as the ways that artists give back. Ceramics are an an ideal lens to examine the gender roles, politics, and material culture of any given moment.

A Little Bit of Syracuse
Everson Museum of Art

Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St., Syracuse

Drawing on the visual narrative techniques of Japanese graphic novels and traditional Chinese landscape painting, students in the Syracuse University School of Architecture developed A Little Bit of Syracuse, an artistic tableau of the city.

Consisting of an 80-foot scroll drawing and 80 hand-made models of local buildings, the exhibition is a narrative study of the often-overlooked structures that form the backdrop of everyday life in Syracuse. Under the direction of visiting studio professors Li Han and Hu Yan, principals of acclaimed Beijing-based Drawing Architecture Studio, 10 students explored the city, each selecting eight normal, unremarkable buildings — coffee shops, laundromats, residences, etc. — to use as architectural elements in their visual narrative of the city.

Those familiar with Syracuse will immediately recognize many, if not all, the building models — the Dunkin Donuts drive-through, CNY Jazz Central, the Byrne Dairy Deli and Convenience Store.

These and other familiar structures can also be identified in the Syracuse cityscape depicted in the 80-foot scroll drawing, which stitches together each building into a visual story that is at once both realistic and abstract, familiar and unfamiliar.

Mondrian: Art, Design, Fashion
Syracuse University School of Art and Design

Price: Free
The Warehouse Genet Gallery
350 W. Fayette St., Syracuse

Discover the remarkable influence of Piet Mondrian's art on fashion and design. This exhibition, curated by Professor Jeffrey Mayer and featuring the Sue Ann Genet Costume Collection, addresses the effect that Piet Mondrian's utopian neoplastic art has had on design and fashion in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.

Mondrian (1872-1944) was a visionary Dutch painter known for pioneering the De Stijl movement. His iconic grid-based compositions using only straight lines, primary colors plus black, white and grey, transformed the art world. His work embodies simplicity, harmony, and a universal language of abstraction.

The exhibition features not only fashion from the 1980s and 1990s but is also filled with additional "design" objects that have been influenced by Mondrian's work, including dinnerware from Kate Spade; toys from Mattel, LOL and Thomas the Train; sneakers by Nike; and packaging from the beauty brand L'Oreal's Studio Line.

But when Cady devises a plan to end Regina's reign, she learns the hard way that you can't cross a Queen Bee without getting stung. New York Magazine cheers, "Mean Girls delivers with immense energy, a wicked sense of humor and joyful inside-jokery."

Christine Chin: Invasive Impressions
Everson Museum of Art

Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St., Syracuse

Ithaca-based artist Christine Chin creates works that explore the evidence of climate change and its impact on the environment. "Invasive Impressions" presents two bodies of Chin's work: her "Invasive Species Cyanotypes" and "Native Species Cyanotypes." Chin's "Invasive Species" series uses the cyanotype process to document invasive species in the Finger Lakes region. She uses actual specimens, collected herself or through collaborations with organizations that work to monitor and control invasive species, including the Finger Lakes Institute and the Finger Lakes Partnership for Regional Invasive Species Management. The "Native Species" series focuses on species that coexist in ecosystems affected by invasive species. Shown together, these works draw attention to the relationships that form between species competing for the same ever-dwindling resources.

"Christine Chin: Invasive Impressions" is part of the Everson CNY Artist Initiative, an exhibition program that celebrates the multi-faceted talents of regional artists.

His songs are filled with powerful imagery and thought-provoking themes but a Powell performance is much more than just a concert – it's an exploration into the human heart. Seamlessly weaving hilarious tales of everyday life with heartbreaking songs of tragedy, loss & blue collar hardship. Pulling from his catalog of over 200 original songs and accompanied by his musical companion of over 15 years, multi-instrumentalist John Hanus, they have become one of the "must-see" acts in Central New York.

Syracuse University, Syracuse

The Art Wall Project at the Syracuse University Art Museum continues for its third presentation and will feature photographs and silk-screen prints made by Nona Faustine, a Brooklyn-based photographer. For this iteration, Faustine will consider the legacy of monuments in the United States and explore how, as she has described, "history is turned around. What is left out, what is included, what are the lies. And who gets celebrated."

Scriptorium con Safos: Syracuse
Syracuse University Art Museum

Syracuse University Art Museum, Shaffer Art Building
Syracuse University, Syracuse

Artist and art historian Josh T Franco stages a highly personal intervention in the Museum's permanent collection galleries by developing the exhibition checklist and staging performances to activate the space. He takes on the fundamental method of compare and contrast, as championed by the 19th-century Swiss art historian Heinrich Wölfflin, in order to consider his place within the discipline. In doing so, he invites museum visitors, especially Syracuse University students, to consider their relationships to their fields of study.
