Xaviera Simmons: Accumulations Light Work Gallery
Light Work Gallery
316 Waverly Ave., Syracuse University,
Syracuse
Light Work and Urban Video Project are proud to present concurrent exhibitions featuring the work of Xaviera Simmons, whose multidisciplinary artistic practice includes photography, sculpture, installation, sound art, video, and performance. "Accumulations" will be on view at Light Work through March 5 and "Number Sixteen" will be on view at UVP Everson through January 31. "Accumulations" presents a group of large-scale, graphic photographic prints. At first glance, the images emerge as a series of complex and abstract collages. Closer inspection reveals a shaman-like figure: a skirt pulled over the face and a barrage of objects hanging from the body. Fabric, photos, feathers, palm fronds and other small things tumble across the center of the photographs; composing an explosion referent to race, culture, gender and sexuality. "Accumulations" works to both obscure and define identity.

Gary Metz: Quaking Aspen Light Work Gallery
Price: Free Robert B. Menschel Photography Gallery
Schine Student Center, 306 University Ave.,
Syracuse
In the 1970s, the late photographer and educator Gary Metz generated a significant body of work that was very much in the spirit of the times. Metz's "Quaking Aspen: A Lyric Complaint" challenged the first 100 years of landscape photography, which had placed a major emphasis on depicting nature as sublime, heroic and unspoiled. Unlike previous photographers who glorified nature, Metz and his contemporaries wrenched photography out of the national parks and replaced the scenic with the vernacular of the everyday American landscape. A number of Metz's colleagues received wide recognition for their similar investigations culminating in the seminal 1975 exhibition "The New Topographics: Photographs of a Man-Altered Landscape" at the Museum of Photography at the George Eastman House. Metz never received the same level of acknowledgement. Now, 40 years later, his "Quaking Aspen: A Lyric Complaint" is as powerful and relevant as ever, resonating with current interests in ecology and the everyday landscape. Metz spent the month of August 1985 as an artist-in-residence at Light Work. Metz was the was a professor at the University of Colorado, Boulder; director of Education at the International Center of Photography; and head of the photography department at the Rhode Island School of Design. He received NEA fellowships in photography in 1972 and 1980, and is represented in various collections including the Museum of Modern Art in New York, George Eastman House in Rochester, the National Gallery of Canada, and the Visual Studies Workshop in Rochester.

It's in Our Very Name: The Italian Heritage of Syracuse Onondaga Historical Association
Onondaga Historical Association
321 Montgomery St.,
Syracuse
As a crossroads for many immigrants from around the world, Syracuse became the home for Italians who were looking to build a better life. In turn, these immigrants changed Syracuse both physically, by helping with different architectural and infrastructure projects, and culturally, by importing new foods and customs to our community and by participation at all levels in the Syracuse economy. The exhibit will focus on the history and influence of Italian culture in Syracuse beginning with the name given to this village in 1825, which was adopted when John Wilkinson was inspired by a poem about Siracusa, Sicily. By the 1880s, an increasing number of Italian immigrants began to arrive to take advantage of the thriving Syracuse economy and other opportunities that were available. Some artifacts that will be highlighted include a wine press, a set of wooden bocce balls, and purses made at the Resnick purse factory.

Snowy Splendor: Winter Scenes of Onondaga County Onondaga Historical Association
Onondaga Historical Association
321 Montgomery St.,
Syracuse
An artwork exhibit highlighting winter scenes throughout Onondaga County. "Snowy Splendor: Winter Scenes of Onondaga County" features oil, acrylic, and watercolor paintings, photographs, and drawings of winter scenes of Onondaga County from area artists and photographers. The 30 scenes include downtown Syracuse, rural vistas, Oakwood and Rose Hill Cemeteries, and woodland settings. The imagery is varied; sometimes stark, sometimes colorful, yet all evocative of a season we love and hate.

Lodging Landmark: The Heritage of the Hotel Syracuse Onondaga Historical Association
Price: Free Onondaga Historical Association
321 Montgomery St.,
Syracuse
The exhibit will feature 20 framed images along with a small selection of original archival items and artifacts. Fourteen historic images will be drawn from the extensive photographic files on the hotel maintained in the OHA's permanent collection. These range from a 1923 view of construction to the 1948 interior of the famous Rainbow Lounge, along with historic scenes of the Cavalier Room, the Persian Terrace and other locations from its heyday. Additionally, there will be a half-dozen recent interior images taken this year by professional photographer Bruce Harvey. These show that the hotel still maintains an irreplaceable majesty despite years of faded glory. The hotel, which opened in 1924, has been closed and dormant for several years but a new owner has begun a massive project to renovate it for the future while restoring its grand architecture.

Minna Citron: The Uncharted Course from Realism to Abstraction Syracuse University Art Museum
Price: Free Syracuse University Art Museum, Shaffer Art Building
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
This retrospective exhibition features artwork by the award-winning American painter and printmaker Minna Citron. Organized by Dr. Jennifer L. Streb, Curator at the Juniata College Museum of Art, with assistance from Christiane Citron, the exhibition presents over 50 paintings, prints, drawings and mixed media constructions. American painter and printmaker Minna Citron's (1896–1991) New York-based career was long and distinguished, with numerous exhibitions worldwide and her works represented in the permanent collections of major museums in the United States and abroad. Citron was an artist at the forefront of major artistic movements of the 20th century, as well as directly connected to the central figures of those movements, and she was a well-known figure in the New York art world. This presentation continues the yearlong celebration of women and the arts at the SU Art Galleries. Smaller in-depth examinations of women drawn from the permanent collection will be installed in the Study Galleries, including three shows that focus on female sculptors, master photographer Barbara Morgan, and important printmaking workshops that each were founded by women in the 1950s and 1960s.

The exhibition features 35 masterworks, drawn from the permanent collection of the Munson-Williams-Proctor Arts Institute in Utica.

Burchfield (1893-1967), Arthur B. Davies (1862-1928), Arthur G. Dove (1880-1946), Arshile Gorky (1904-48), Edward Hopper (1882-1967), George B.

Additional works are drawn from the Everson Museum's permanent collection.

Other works in the exhibition embody different manifestations of the mid-20th century art movement known as Abstract Expressionism—the first American art movement to receive international recognition and influence. In addition to the iconic beauty of the works in the exhibition, visitors will have an opportunity to observe how leading modern American artists depicted similar representational and abstract subject matter. Docent-led tours are available at 2:00 pm daily at no additional cost. Check in at the Visitor Services Desk.

Women's Work: Feminist Art from the Everson's Collection Everson Museum of Art
Price: Suggested donation, $5 adults Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
The Feminist Art Movement emerged in the late 1960s in various cities around the globe. Proponents of the movement sought to influence cultural attitudes and build a new framework for viewing the world, one that included and validated women's experiences. This group of artists did not conform to a single style or medium; instead, they united around ideas of producing art reflective of women's lives, transforming stereotypes, and drawing attention to women's historic contributions to art and society. Drawing from the Everson's collection, this exhibit brings together works by some of the most important artists of the Feminist Art Movement.

Gary Metz: Quaking Aspen Light Work Gallery
Price: Free Robert B. Menschel Photography Gallery
Schine Student Center, 306 University Ave.,
Syracuse
In the 1970s, the late photographer and educator Gary Metz generated a significant body of work that was very much in the spirit of the times. Metz's "Quaking Aspen: A Lyric Complaint" challenged the first 100 years of landscape photography, which had placed a major emphasis on depicting nature as sublime, heroic and unspoiled. Unlike previous photographers who glorified nature, Metz and his contemporaries wrenched photography out of the national parks and replaced the scenic with the vernacular of the everyday American landscape. A number of Metz's colleagues received wide recognition for their similar investigations culminating in the seminal 1975 exhibition "The New Topographics: Photographs of a Man-Altered Landscape" at the Museum of Photography at the George Eastman House. Metz never received the same level of acknowledgement. Now, 40 years later, his "Quaking Aspen: A Lyric Complaint" is as powerful and relevant as ever, resonating with current interests in ecology and the everyday landscape. Metz spent the month of August 1985 as an artist-in-residence at Light Work. Metz was the was a professor at the University of Colorado, Boulder; director of Education at the International Center of Photography; and head of the photography department at the Rhode Island School of Design. He received NEA fellowships in photography in 1972 and 1980, and is represented in various collections including the Museum of Modern Art in New York, George Eastman House in Rochester, the National Gallery of Canada, and the Visual Studies Workshop in Rochester.

Xaviera Simmons: Accumulations Light Work Gallery
Light Work Gallery
316 Waverly Ave., Syracuse University,
Syracuse
Light Work and Urban Video Project are proud to present concurrent exhibitions featuring the work of Xaviera Simmons, whose multidisciplinary artistic practice includes photography, sculpture, installation, sound art, video, and performance. "Accumulations" will be on view at Light Work through March 5 and "Number Sixteen" will be on view at UVP Everson through January 31. "Accumulations" presents a group of large-scale, graphic photographic prints. At first glance, the images emerge as a series of complex and abstract collages. Closer inspection reveals a shaman-like figure: a skirt pulled over the face and a barrage of objects hanging from the body. Fabric, photos, feathers, palm fronds and other small things tumble across the center of the photographs; composing an explosion referent to race, culture, gender and sexuality. "Accumulations" works to both obscure and define identity.

"Accumulations" presents a group of large-scale, graphic photographic prints. At first glance, the images emerge as a series of complex and abstract collages. Closer inspection reveals a shaman-like figure: a skirt pulled over the face and a barrage of objects hanging from the body. Fabric, photos, feathers, palm fronds and other small things tumble across the center of the photographs; composing an explosion referent to race, culture, gender and sexuality. "Accumulations" works to both obscure and define identity.

Suspended Memories: Works of Liene Bosquê Point of Contact Gallery
Price: Free Point of Contact Gallery
350 W. Fayette St.,
Syracuse
Liene Bosquê has been interested in the history of vernacular as well as iconic architecture of small and big cities. In reinterpreting symbolic constructions into miniature sculptures that allude to travel souvenirs, the artist tackles not only concepts of collection, but also notions of personal and collective memories. Bosquê is interested in the meanings that human beings attach to places and objects, and how such experiences can serve as catalysts to alter public perspectives, inserting them into private domains. In this first solo show in the United States, Bosquê explores the own history of the city of Syracuse, unearthing buildings that have been demolished and obliterated from the city's landscape. The artist will present works in various media, such as sculpture, installation, video, and imprints, portraying some of Syracuse's symbolic landmarks, which probably do not carry the same significance nationwide, thus transforming them into iconic constructions, worthy of being memorialized and reinserted within the history of the region and the country. By activating local remembrances, Bosquê emphasizes the importance of preserving places of symbolic affection in opposition to the constant renewing of the landscape in the name of progress and industrialization.

Cinemagogue: Waltz with Bashir Temple Society of Concord
Price: Free (donations welcome) Temple Society of Concord
910 Madison St.,
Syracuse
Director Ari Folman's animated, quasi-documentary Waltz with Bashir follows the filmmaker's emotional attempt to decipher the horrors that unfolded one night in September of 1982, when Christian militia members massacred more than 3,000 Palestinian refugees in the heart of Beirut as Israeli soldiers surrounded the area. Folman was one of those soldiers, but nearly 20 years after the fact, his memories of that night remain particularly hazy. After hearing an old friend recall a vivid nightmare in which he is pursued by 26 ferocious dogs, Folman and his friend conclude that the dream must somehow relate to that fateful mission during the first Lebanon War. When Folman realizes that his recollections regarding that period in his life seem to have somehow been wiped clean, he travels the world to interview old friends and fellow soldiers from the war. Later, as Folman's memory begins to emerge in a series of surreal images, he begins to uncover a truth about himself that will haunt him for the rest of his days.

In the Next Room, or The Vibrator Play Syracuse Stage May Adrales, director
Archbold Theater, Syracuse Stage
820 E. Genesee St.,
Syracuse
It's the 1880s and electricity is all the rage. In a quiet home office, a doctor experiments with a new instrument for treating "hysteria." The device? A vibrator. In this genuinely touching, original, and wickedly funny play, Sarah Ruhl (The Clean House) explores relationships and sexual fulfillment while managing to stay discreetly beneath the crisp white sheets of Victorian propriety. May Adrales (Chinglish) returns to direct this tastefully stimulating play that's both social commentary and comedy.

"The Automobile" provides a sampling of the ways in which the automobile evolved in the Syracuse area and a glimpse into the innovations of some of the most significant mid-20th-century automobile designers. The centerpiece of the exhibition is the air-cooled Franklin car, the most famous of Syracuse's automobile lines, with its remarkably flexible and durable wooden frame. The exhibition will also include drawings, sketches, and photographs from SCRC's industrial design collections by designers Howard A. Darrin, Claude Hill, Raymond Loewy, Budd Steinhilber, and Walter Dorwin Teague. Darrin was known for his designs for exotic luxury and sports cars.

Gary Metz: Quaking Aspen Light Work Gallery
Price: Free Robert B. Menschel Photography Gallery
Schine Student Center, 306 University Ave.,
Syracuse
In the 1970s, the late photographer and educator Gary Metz generated a significant body of work that was very much in the spirit of the times. Metz's "Quaking Aspen: A Lyric Complaint" challenged the first 100 years of landscape photography, which had placed a major emphasis on depicting nature as sublime, heroic and unspoiled. Unlike previous photographers who glorified nature, Metz and his contemporaries wrenched photography out of the national parks and replaced the scenic with the vernacular of the everyday American landscape. A number of Metz's colleagues received wide recognition for their similar investigations culminating in the seminal 1975 exhibition "The New Topographics: Photographs of a Man-Altered Landscape" at the Museum of Photography at the George Eastman House. Metz never received the same level of acknowledgement. Now, 40 years later, his "Quaking Aspen: A Lyric Complaint" is as powerful and relevant as ever, resonating with current interests in ecology and the everyday landscape. Metz spent the month of August 1985 as an artist-in-residence at Light Work. Metz was the was a professor at the University of Colorado, Boulder; director of Education at the International Center of Photography; and head of the photography department at the Rhode Island School of Design. He received NEA fellowships in photography in 1972 and 1980, and is represented in various collections including the Museum of Modern Art in New York, George Eastman House in Rochester, the National Gallery of Canada, and the Visual Studies Workshop in Rochester.

Fourteen historic images will be drawn from the extensive photographic files on the hotel maintained in the OHA's permanent collection.

It's in Our Very Name: The Italian Heritage of Syracuse Onondaga Historical Association
Onondaga Historical Association
321 Montgomery St.,
Syracuse
As a crossroads for many immigrants from around the world, Syracuse became the home for Italians who were looking to build a better life. In turn, these immigrants changed Syracuse both physically, by helping with different architectural and infrastructure projects, and culturally, by importing new foods and customs to our community and by participation at all levels in the Syracuse economy. The exhibit will focus on the history and influence of Italian culture in Syracuse beginning with the name given to this village in 1825, which was adopted when John Wilkinson was inspired by a poem about Siracusa, Sicily. By the 1880s, an increasing number of Italian immigrants began to arrive to take advantage of the thriving Syracuse economy and other opportunities that were available. Some artifacts that will be highlighted include a wine press, a set of wooden bocce balls, and purses made at the Resnick purse factory.

Women's Work: Feminist Art from the Everson's Collection Everson Museum of Art
Price: Suggested donation, $5 adults Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
The Feminist Art Movement emerged in the late 1960s in various cities around the globe. Proponents of the movement sought to influence cultural attitudes and build a new framework for viewing the world, one that included and validated women's experiences. This group of artists did not conform to a single style or medium; instead, they united around ideas of producing art reflective of women's lives, transforming stereotypes, and drawing attention to women's historic contributions to art and society. Drawing from the Everson's collection, this exhibit brings together works by some of the most important artists of the Feminist Art Movement.

Suspended Memories: Works of Liene Bosquê Point of Contact Gallery
Price: Free Point of Contact Gallery
350 W. Fayette St.,
Syracuse
Liene Bosquê has been interested in the history of vernacular as well as iconic architecture of small and big cities. In reinterpreting symbolic constructions into miniature sculptures that allude to travel souvenirs, the artist tackles not only concepts of collection, but also notions of personal and collective memories. Bosquê is interested in the meanings that human beings attach to places and objects, and how such experiences can serve as catalysts to alter public perspectives, inserting them into private domains. In this first solo show in the United States, Bosquê explores the own history of the city of Syracuse, unearthing buildings that have been demolished and obliterated from the city's landscape. The artist will present works in various media, such as sculpture, installation, video, and imprints, portraying some of Syracuse's symbolic landmarks, which probably do not carry the same significance nationwide, thus transforming them into iconic constructions, worthy of being memorialized and reinserted within the history of the region and the country. By activating local remembrances, Bosquê emphasizes the importance of preserving places of symbolic affection in opposition to the constant renewing of the landscape in the name of progress and industrialization.

Selma to Montgomery March at 50: Civil Rights Photographs by Matt Herron ArtRage Gallery

In the Next Room, or The Vibrator Play Syracuse Stage May Adrales, director
Archbold Theater, Syracuse Stage
820 E. Genesee St.,
Syracuse
It's the 1880s and electricity is all the rage. In a quiet home office, a doctor experiments with a new instrument for treating "hysteria." The device? A vibrator. In this genuinely touching, original, and wickedly funny play, Sarah Ruhl (The Clean House) explores relationships and sexual fulfillment while managing to stay discreetly beneath the crisp white sheets of Victorian propriety. May Adrales (Chinglish) returns to direct this tastefully stimulating play that's both social commentary and comedy.

The Automobile: Design Considerations and Local Manifestations Syracuse University Library Special Collections Research Center
Price: Free Bird Library, 6th Floor
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
"The Automobile" provides a sampling of the ways in which the automobile evolved in the Syracuse area and a glimpse into the innovations of some of the most significant mid-20th-century automobile designers. The centerpiece of the exhibition is the air-cooled Franklin car, the most famous of Syracuse's automobile lines, with its remarkably flexible and durable wooden frame. The exhibition will also include drawings, sketches, and photographs from SCRC's industrial design collections by designers Howard A. Darrin, Claude Hill, Raymond Loewy, Budd Steinhilber, and Walter Dorwin Teague. Darrin was known for his designs for exotic luxury and sports cars. Claude Hill created some important concept car designs, while Raymond Loewy's photographs document a number of striking Studebaker model designs. Budd Steinhilber was a member of the design team for the revolutionary rear-engine 1948 Tucker automobile, and Walter Dorwin Teague designed for both the Ford Motor Company and the Marmon Motor Company.

Gary Metz: Quaking Aspen Light Work Gallery
Price: Free Robert B. Menschel Photography Gallery
Schine Student Center, 306 University Ave.,
Syracuse
In the 1970s, the late photographer and educator Gary Metz generated a significant body of work that was very much in the spirit of the times. Metz's "Quaking Aspen: A Lyric Complaint" challenged the first 100 years of landscape photography, which had placed a major emphasis on depicting nature as sublime, heroic and unspoiled. Unlike previous photographers who glorified nature, Metz and his contemporaries wrenched photography out of the national parks and replaced the scenic with the vernacular of the everyday American landscape. A number of Metz's colleagues received wide recognition for their similar investigations culminating in the seminal 1975 exhibition "The New Topographics: Photographs of a Man-Altered Landscape" at the Museum of Photography at the George Eastman House. Metz never received the same level of acknowledgement. Now, 40 years later, his "Quaking Aspen: A Lyric Complaint" is as powerful and relevant as ever, resonating with current interests in ecology and the everyday landscape. Metz spent the month of August 1985 as an artist-in-residence at Light Work. Metz was the was a professor at the University of Colorado, Boulder; director of Education at the International Center of Photography; and head of the photography department at the Rhode Island School of Design. He received NEA fellowships in photography in 1972 and 1980, and is represented in various collections including the Museum of Modern Art in New York, George Eastman House in Rochester, the National Gallery of Canada, and the Visual Studies Workshop in Rochester.

Xaviera Simmons: Accumulations Light Work Gallery
Light Work Gallery
316 Waverly Ave., Syracuse University,
Syracuse
Light Work and Urban Video Project are proud to present concurrent exhibitions featuring the work of Xaviera Simmons, whose multidisciplinary artistic practice includes photography, sculpture, installation, sound art, video, and performance. "Accumulations" will be on view at Light Work through March 5 and "Number Sixteen" will be on view at UVP Everson through January 31. "Accumulations" presents a group of large-scale, graphic photographic prints. At first glance, the images emerge as a series of complex and abstract collages. Closer inspection reveals a shaman-like figure: a skirt pulled over the face and a barrage of objects hanging from the body. Fabric, photos, feathers, palm fronds and other small things tumble across the center of the photographs; composing an explosion referent to race, culture, gender and sexuality. "Accumulations" works to both obscure and define identity.

It's in Our Very Name: The Italian Heritage of Syracuse Onondaga Historical Association
Onondaga Historical Association
321 Montgomery St.,
Syracuse
As a crossroads for many immigrants from around the world, Syracuse became the home for Italians who were looking to build a better life. In turn, these immigrants changed Syracuse both physically, by helping with different architectural and infrastructure projects, and culturally, by importing new foods and customs to our community and by participation at all levels in the Syracuse economy. The exhibit will focus on the history and influence of Italian culture in Syracuse beginning with the name given to this village in 1825, which was adopted when John Wilkinson was inspired by a poem about Siracusa, Sicily. By the 1880s, an increasing number of Italian immigrants began to arrive to take advantage of the thriving Syracuse economy and other opportunities that were available. Some artifacts that will be highlighted include a wine press, a set of wooden bocce balls, and purses made at the Resnick purse factory.

The exhibit will feature 20 framed images along with a small selection of original archival items and artifacts. Fourteen historic images will be drawn from the extensive photographic files on the hotel maintained in the OHA's permanent collection.

These show that the hotel still maintains an irreplaceable majesty despite years of faded glory. The hotel, which opened in 1924, has been closed and dormant for several years but a new owner has begun a massive project to renovate it for the future while restoring its grand architecture.

Women's Work: Feminist Art from the Everson's Collection Everson Museum of Art

The Feminist Art Movement emerged in the late 1960s in various cities around the globe. Proponents of the movement sought to influence cultural attitudes and build a new framework for viewing the world, one that included and validated women's experiences. This group of artists did not conform to a single style or medium; instead, they united around ideas of producing art reflective of women's lives, transforming stereotypes, and drawing attention to women's historic contributions to art and society. Drawing from the Everson's collection, this exhibit brings together works by some of the most important artists of the Feminist Art Movement.

Suspended Memories: Works of Liene Bosquê Point of Contact Gallery
Price: Free Point of Contact Gallery
350 W. Fayette St.,
Syracuse
Liene Bosquê has been interested in the history of vernacular as well as iconic architecture of small and big cities. In reinterpreting symbolic constructions into miniature sculptures that allude to travel souvenirs, the artist tackles not only concepts of collection, but also notions of personal and collective memories. Bosquê is interested in the meanings that human beings attach to places and objects, and how such experiences can serve as catalysts to alter public perspectives, inserting them into private domains. In this first solo show in the United States, Bosquê explores the own history of the city of Syracuse, unearthing buildings that have been demolished and obliterated from the city's landscape. The artist will present works in various media, such as sculpture, installation, video, and imprints, portraying some of Syracuse's symbolic landmarks, which probably do not carry the same significance nationwide, thus transforming them into iconic constructions, worthy of being memorialized and reinserted within the history of the region and the country. By activating local remembrances, Bosquê emphasizes the importance of preserving places of symbolic affection in opposition to the constant renewing of the landscape in the name of progress and industrialization.

Selma to Montgomery March at 50: Civil Rights Photographs by Matt Herron ArtRage Gallery
Price: Free ArtRage Gallery
505 Hawley Ave.,
Syracuse
The 1965 Selma marches were pivotal events in the Civil Rights Movement, bringing international attention to the brutality of racist segregation and amplifying Alabama's denial of voting rights to African Americans. Herron's powerful photographs convey not just the political but the personal impact of this momentous struggle. Herron's photos have appeared in virtually every major picture magazine in the world. Based in Mississippi in the early 60s, he covered the Civil Rights struggle for Life, Look, Time, Newsweek, and the Saturday Evening Post, as well as providing pictures for the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee (SNCC). His photographs are in the permanent collections of the George Eastman House, the Smithsonian Institution, the High Museum of Art, and the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture.

Jeannette Ehlers: Black Bullets Urban Video Project
Everson Museum of Art Plaza
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
"Black Bullets" (2012) by Danish artist Jeannette Ehlers is an architectural projection on the north facade of the Everson Museum of Art, beginning at dusk. This exhibition is presented as part of "Celestial Navigation: a year into the afro future", a year-long program of exhibitions and events at Urban Video Project and partner organizations that takes afrofuturism as its point of departure. Jeannette Ehlers' haunting piece is inspired by the Haitian Revolution of 1791, which resulted in the world's first black republic. Filmed on location at La Citadelle in Haiti, the piece is a tribute to the act of revolt. Jeannette Ehlers is based in Copenhagen, Denmark. A 2006 graduate of The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, Ehlers' works revolve around the Danish slave trade in the colonial era. She is of Danish and Trinidadian parentage.

In the Next Room, or The Vibrator Play Syracuse Stage May Adrales, director
Archbold Theater, Syracuse Stage
820 E. Genesee St.,
Syracuse
It's the 1880s and electricity is all the rage. In a quiet home office, a doctor experiments with a new instrument for treating "hysteria." The device? A vibrator. In this genuinely touching, original, and wickedly funny play, Sarah Ruhl (The Clean House) explores relationships and sexual fulfillment while managing to stay discreetly beneath the crisp white sheets of Victorian propriety. May Adrales (Chinglish) returns to direct this tastefully stimulating play that's both social commentary and comedy.

The Automobile: Design Considerations and Local Manifestations Syracuse University Library Special Collections Research Center
Price: Free Bird Library, 6th Floor
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
"The Automobile" provides a sampling of the ways in which the automobile evolved in the Syracuse area and a glimpse into the innovations of some of the most significant mid-20th-century automobile designers. The centerpiece of the exhibition is the air-cooled Franklin car, the most famous of Syracuse's automobile lines, with its remarkably flexible and durable wooden frame. The exhibition will also include drawings, sketches, and photographs from SCRC's industrial design collections by designers Howard A. Darrin, Claude Hill, Raymond Loewy, Budd Steinhilber, and Walter Dorwin Teague. Darrin was known for his designs for exotic luxury and sports cars. Claude Hill created some important concept car designs, while Raymond Loewy's photographs document a number of striking Studebaker model designs. Budd Steinhilber was a member of the design team for the revolutionary rear-engine 1948 Tucker automobile, and Walter Dorwin Teague designed for both the Ford Motor Company and the Marmon Motor Company.

Gary Metz: Quaking Aspen Light Work Gallery
Price: Free Robert B. Menschel Photography Gallery
Schine Student Center, 306 University Ave.,
Syracuse
In the 1970s, the late photographer and educator Gary Metz generated a significant body of work that was very much in the spirit of the times. Metz's "Quaking Aspen: A Lyric Complaint" challenged the first 100 years of landscape photography, which had placed a major emphasis on depicting nature as sublime, heroic and unspoiled. Unlike previous photographers who glorified nature, Metz and his contemporaries wrenched photography out of the national parks and replaced the scenic with the vernacular of the everyday American landscape. A number of Metz's colleagues received wide recognition for their similar investigations culminating in the seminal 1975 exhibition "The New Topographics: Photographs of a Man-Altered Landscape" at the Museum of Photography at the George Eastman House. Metz never received the same level of acknowledgement. Now, 40 years later, his "Quaking Aspen: A Lyric Complaint" is as powerful and relevant as ever, resonating with current interests in ecology and the everyday landscape. Metz spent the month of August 1985 as an artist-in-residence at Light Work. Metz was the was a professor at the University of Colorado, Boulder; director of Education at the International Center of Photography; and head of the photography department at the Rhode Island School of Design. He received NEA fellowships in photography in 1972 and 1980, and is represented in various collections including the Museum of Modern Art in New York, George Eastman House in Rochester, the National Gallery of Canada, and the Visual Studies Workshop in Rochester.

Xaviera Simmons: Accumulations Light Work Gallery
Light Work Gallery
316 Waverly Ave., Syracuse University,
Syracuse
Light Work and Urban Video Project are proud to present concurrent exhibitions featuring the work of Xaviera Simmons, whose multidisciplinary artistic practice includes photography, sculpture, installation, sound art, video, and performance. "Accumulations" will be on view at Light Work through March 5 and "Number Sixteen" will be on view at UVP Everson through January 31. "Accumulations" presents a group of large-scale, graphic photographic prints. At first glance, the images emerge as a series of complex and abstract collages. Closer inspection reveals a shaman-like figure: a skirt pulled over the face and a barrage of objects hanging from the body. Fabric, photos, feathers, palm fronds and other small things tumble across the center of the photographs; composing an explosion referent to race, culture, gender and sexuality. "Accumulations" works to both obscure and define identity.

Lodging Landmark: The Heritage of the Hotel Syracuse Onondaga Historical Association
Price: Free Onondaga Historical Association
321 Montgomery St.,
Syracuse
The exhibit will feature 20 framed images along with a small selection of original archival items and artifacts. Fourteen historic images will be drawn from the extensive photographic files on the hotel maintained in the OHA's permanent collection. These range from a 1923 view of construction to the 1948 interior of the famous Rainbow Lounge, along with historic scenes of the Cavalier Room, the Persian Terrace and other locations from its heyday. Additionally, there will be a half-dozen recent interior images taken this year by professional photographer Bruce Harvey. These show that the hotel still maintains an irreplaceable majesty despite years of faded glory. The hotel, which opened in 1924, has been closed and dormant for several years but a new owner has begun a massive project to renovate it for the future while restoring its grand architecture.

It's in Our Very Name: The Italian Heritage of Syracuse Onondaga Historical Association
Onondaga Historical Association
321 Montgomery St.,
Syracuse
As a crossroads for many immigrants from around the world, Syracuse became the home for Italians who were looking to build a better life. In turn, these immigrants changed Syracuse both physically, by helping with different architectural and infrastructure projects, and culturally, by importing new foods and customs to our community and by participation at all levels in the Syracuse economy. The exhibit will focus on the history and influence of Italian culture in Syracuse beginning with the name given to this village in 1825, which was adopted when John Wilkinson was inspired by a poem about Siracusa, Sicily. By the 1880s, an increasing number of Italian immigrants began to arrive to take advantage of the thriving Syracuse economy and other opportunities that were available. Some artifacts that will be highlighted include a wine press, a set of wooden bocce balls, and purses made at the Resnick purse factory.

Docent-led tours are available at 2:00 pm daily at no additional cost. Check in at the Visitor Services Desk.

Women's Work: Feminist Art from the Everson's Collection Everson Museum of Art
Price: Suggested donation, $5 adults Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
The Feminist Art Movement emerged in the late 1960s in various cities around the globe. Proponents of the movement sought to influence cultural attitudes and build a new framework for viewing the world, one that included and validated women's experiences. This group of artists did not conform to a single style or medium; instead, they united around ideas of producing art reflective of women's lives, transforming stereotypes, and drawing attention to women's historic contributions to art and society. Drawing from the Everson's collection, this exhibit brings together works by some of the most important artists of the Feminist Art Movement.

In this first solo show in the United States, Bosquê explores the own history of the city of Syracuse, unearthing buildings that have been demolished and obliterated from the city's landscape. The artist will present works in various media, such as sculpture, installation, video, and imprints, portraying some of Syracuse's symbolic landmarks, which probably do not carry the same significance nationwide, thus transforming them into iconic constructions, worthy of being memorialized and reinserted within the history of the region and the country. By activating local remembrances, Bosquê emphasizes the importance of preserving places of symbolic affection in opposition to the constant renewing of the landscape in the name of progress and industrialization.

Jeannette Ehlers: Black Bullets Urban Video Project
Everson Museum of Art Plaza
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
"Black Bullets" (2012) by Danish artist Jeannette Ehlers is an architectural projection on the north facade of the Everson Museum of Art, beginning at dusk. This exhibition is presented as part of "Celestial Navigation: a year into the afro future", a year-long program of exhibitions and events at Urban Video Project and partner organizations that takes afrofuturism as its point of departure. Jeannette Ehlers' haunting piece is inspired by the Haitian Revolution of 1791, which resulted in the world's first black republic. Filmed on location at La Citadelle in Haiti, the piece is a tribute to the act of revolt. Jeannette Ehlers is based in Copenhagen, Denmark. A 2006 graduate of The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, Ehlers' works revolve around the Danish slave trade in the colonial era. She is of Danish and Trinidadian parentage.

*SOLD OUT* Loren Barrigar & Mark Mazengarb Folkus Project
Price: $18 regular, $15 members May Memorial Unitarian Society
3800 E. Genesee St.,
Syracuse
Concert rescheduled from Jan. 9. If you bought a ticket for the original Jan. 9 show, that ticket is still good. If you now need a refund, e-mail tickets@folkus.org. The area's favorite international guitar duo is moving over to May Memorial for this year's annual show. The international duo of Loren Barrigar (from Central New York) and Mark Mazengarb (from New Zealand) first met at a guitar camp with Tommy Emmanuel in 2005 and have been touring extensively on both the USA and Europe ever since. They share a unique musical chemistry and stage presence seldom found among musicians. Their varied repertoire of original and arranged music consists of stunning guitar duets as well as songs, giving them wide appeal. Their music is influenced by Bluegrass, Jazz, and Old-time/Country; their style of guitar playing is largely built upon the thumb-picking techniques pioneered by guitar greats Merle Travis, Chet Atkins and Jerry Reed, and their songs feature Loren's superb vocals and some beautiful harmonies from Mark. Loren and Mark have headlined guitar festivals in both the USA and Europe and their fan base is rapidly increasing. In the short time the pair have been together, they have attracted the attention of several notable industry artists which has seen them perform with guitar sensation Tommy Emmanuel and record with five-time Grammy winner Lloyd Maines. Loren and Mark recorded their first album together in the summer of 2011 which won a SAMMY (Syracuse Area Music Awards) for Best Album at the Northeast Music Industry Conference, and their most recent album Onward (released August 2012) also won a SAMMY for Best Americana Album. The title track Onward won first place at the International Acoustic Music Awards (IAMA 2013) for best instrumental.

By late summer, 1964, Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy was a deeply wounded man. Still in shock and consumed with grief and guilt over the assassination of his older brother, he was at a crossroads. The 1964 presidential election was approaching and President Lyndon Johnson, who had been dangling the possibility of a vice-presidential role to RFK, finally called Kennedy over to the White House to tell him his decision. Written by Jack Holmes. The Onondaga Historical Association is co-producing the historical dramas Mrs. Lincoln and RFK, which will perform in repertoire, Feb. 15 through March 1.

In the Next Room, or The Vibrator Play Syracuse Stage May Adrales, director
Archbold Theater, Syracuse Stage
820 E. Genesee St.,
Syracuse
It's the 1880s and electricity is all the rage. In a quiet home office, a doctor experiments with a new instrument for treating "hysteria." The device? A vibrator. In this genuinely touching, original, and wickedly funny play, Sarah Ruhl (The Clean House) explores relationships and sexual fulfillment while managing to stay discreetly beneath the crisp white sheets of Victorian propriety. May Adrales (Chinglish) returns to direct this tastefully stimulating play that's both social commentary and comedy.

Women's Work: Feminist Art from the Everson's Collection Everson Museum of Art
Price: Suggested donation, $5 adults Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
The Feminist Art Movement emerged in the late 1960s in various cities around the globe. Proponents of the movement sought to influence cultural attitudes and build a new framework for viewing the world, one that included and validated women's experiences. This group of artists did not conform to a single style or medium; instead, they united around ideas of producing art reflective of women's lives, transforming stereotypes, and drawing attention to women's historic contributions to art and society. Drawing from the Everson's collection, this exhibit brings together works by some of the most important artists of the Feminist Art Movement.

It's in Our Very Name: The Italian Heritage of Syracuse Onondaga Historical Association
Onondaga Historical Association
321 Montgomery St.,
Syracuse
As a crossroads for many immigrants from around the world, Syracuse became the home for Italians who were looking to build a better life. In turn, these immigrants changed Syracuse both physically, by helping with different architectural and infrastructure projects, and culturally, by importing new foods and customs to our community and by participation at all levels in the Syracuse economy. The exhibit will focus on the history and influence of Italian culture in Syracuse beginning with the name given to this village in 1825, which was adopted when John Wilkinson was inspired by a poem about Siracusa, Sicily. By the 1880s, an increasing number of Italian immigrants began to arrive to take advantage of the thriving Syracuse economy and other opportunities that were available. Some artifacts that will be highlighted include a wine press, a set of wooden bocce balls, and purses made at the Resnick purse factory.

Suspended Memories: Works of Liene Bosquê Point of Contact Gallery
Price: Free Point of Contact Gallery
350 W. Fayette St.,
Syracuse
Liene Bosquê has been interested in the history of vernacular as well as iconic architecture of small and big cities. In reinterpreting symbolic constructions into miniature sculptures that allude to travel souvenirs, the artist tackles not only concepts of collection, but also notions of personal and collective memories. Bosquê is interested in the meanings that human beings attach to places and objects, and how such experiences can serve as catalysts to alter public perspectives, inserting them into private domains. In this first solo show in the United States, Bosquê explores the own history of the city of Syracuse, unearthing buildings that have been demolished and obliterated from the city's landscape. The artist will present works in various media, such as sculpture, installation, video, and imprints, portraying some of Syracuse's symbolic landmarks, which probably do not carry the same significance nationwide, thus transforming them into iconic constructions, worthy of being memorialized and reinserted within the history of the region and the country. By activating local remembrances, Bosquê emphasizes the importance of preserving places of symbolic affection in opposition to the constant renewing of the landscape in the name of progress and industrialization.

Xaviera Simmons: Accumulations Light Work Gallery
Light Work Gallery
316 Waverly Ave., Syracuse University,
Syracuse
Light Work and Urban Video Project are proud to present concurrent exhibitions featuring the work of Xaviera Simmons, whose multidisciplinary artistic practice includes photography, sculpture, installation, sound art, video, and performance. "Accumulations" will be on view at Light Work through March 5 and "Number Sixteen" will be on view at UVP Everson through January 31. "Accumulations" presents a group of large-scale, graphic photographic prints. At first glance, the images emerge as a series of complex and abstract collages. Closer inspection reveals a shaman-like figure: a skirt pulled over the face and a barrage of objects hanging from the body. Fabric, photos, feathers, palm fronds and other small things tumble across the center of the photographs; composing an explosion referent to race, culture, gender and sexuality. "Accumulations" works to both obscure and define identity.

Gary Metz: Quaking Aspen Light Work Gallery
Price: Free Robert B. Menschel Photography Gallery
Schine Student Center, 306 University Ave.,
Syracuse
In the 1970s, the late photographer and educator Gary Metz generated a significant body of work that was very much in the spirit of the times. Metz's "Quaking Aspen: A Lyric Complaint" challenged the first 100 years of landscape photography, which had placed a major emphasis on depicting nature as sublime, heroic and unspoiled. Unlike previous photographers who glorified nature, Metz and his contemporaries wrenched photography out of the national parks and replaced the scenic with the vernacular of the everyday American landscape. A number of Metz's colleagues received wide recognition for their similar investigations culminating in the seminal 1975 exhibition "The New Topographics: Photographs of a Man-Altered Landscape" at the Museum of Photography at the George Eastman House. Metz never received the same level of acknowledgement. Now, 40 years later, his "Quaking Aspen: A Lyric Complaint" is as powerful and relevant as ever, resonating with current interests in ecology and the everyday landscape. Metz spent the month of August 1985 as an artist-in-residence at Light Work. Metz was the was a professor at the University of Colorado, Boulder; director of Education at the International Center of Photography; and head of the photography department at the Rhode Island School of Design. He received NEA fellowships in photography in 1972 and 1980, and is represented in various collections including the Museum of Modern Art in New York, George Eastman House in Rochester, the National Gallery of Canada, and the Visual Studies Workshop in Rochester.

The exhibit will feature 20 framed images along with a small selection of original archival items and artifacts.

Additionally, there will be a half-dozen recent interior images taken this year by professional photographer Bruce Harvey.

It's in Our Very Name: The Italian Heritage of Syracuse Onondaga Historical Association
Onondaga Historical Association
321 Montgomery St.,
Syracuse
As a crossroads for many immigrants from around the world, Syracuse became the home for Italians who were looking to build a better life. In turn, these immigrants changed Syracuse both physically, by helping with different architectural and infrastructure projects, and culturally, by importing new foods and customs to our community and by participation at all levels in the Syracuse economy. The exhibit will focus on the history and influence of Italian culture in Syracuse beginning with the name given to this village in 1825, which was adopted when John Wilkinson was inspired by a poem about Siracusa, Sicily. By the 1880s, an increasing number of Italian immigrants began to arrive to take advantage of the thriving Syracuse economy and other opportunities that were available. Some artifacts that will be highlighted include a wine press, a set of wooden bocce balls, and purses made at the Resnick purse factory.

Women's Work: Feminist Art from the Everson's Collection Everson Museum of Art
Price: Suggested donation, $5 adults Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
The Feminist Art Movement emerged in the late 1960s in various cities around the globe. Proponents of the movement sought to influence cultural attitudes and build a new framework for viewing the world, one that included and validated women's experiences. This group of artists did not conform to a single style or medium; instead, they united around ideas of producing art reflective of women's lives, transforming stereotypes, and drawing attention to women's historic contributions to art and society. Drawing from the Everson's collection, this exhibit brings together works by some of the most important artists of the Feminist Art Movement.

Tracing Italian Immigrant History to the Italian American Present Onondaga Historical Association Featuring Salvatore Primeggia
Price: Free Onondaga Historical Association
321 Montgomery St.,
Syracuse
From those who established Little Italy "villages" within our cities, to the fourth-generation upholders of ethnic neighborhoods, businesses, and traditions, the Italian immigrant legacy is a cultural imprint that continues to enrich the physical and social landscapes of our nation. What pushed so many Italians to leave their country between 1880 and 1924? What pulled these immigrants to New York City, as well as other American destinations? How did Old World attachments shape their responses to New World challenges? These questions are addressed as we examine the issues and impacts, past and present, of Italian immigration to the United States. Salvatore Primeggia, who received his Ph.D. from the New School for Social Research, presently holds the position of Professor of Sociology at Adelphi University. Dr. Primeggia has served as a contributor and participant in PBS Channel 21's widely acclaimed videos, The Italian-Americans: Part 1, and Heaven Touches Brooklyn in July. Primeggia has been a co-editor of The Italian-American Experience: An Encyclopedia; Saints in the Lives of Italian-Americans; and Models and Images of Catholicism in Italian-Americana: Academy and Society.
