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

"It's A Wrap! West African Textiles" is an exhibition featuring over 40 examples of textiles and their accompanying tools. Drawn from geographically proximate locales in West Africa, including Mali, Niger, Burkina Faso, Cote d'Ivoire, Ghana, Nigeria and Cameroon, the textiles on display exemplify woven, stamped, appliqued, and resist-dyed techniques.

In all cultures clothing does more than simply cover the body. It communicates subtle visual messages about the owner. What and how it is worn, can be interpreted as a statement of flamboyant ostentation or modest conservatism. It may signal the prominence of a wealthy and powerful king, the presence of a deity, or the existence of a mad man. The textile culture in West African is very old, weaving is documented at Igbo Ukwu, Nigeria in the 9th-10th century and by the 11th century weaving flourished in Mali. Used in a variety of ways, African textiles can be presented as gifts to the living and the dead; used in a bride's dowry; displayed at weddings and funerals; used as blankets for protection from the cold and mosquitoes; spread on the ground for a chief to walk over or placed in layers to cover his palanquin or funeral bed. Textiles are worn to flatter or flirt, to display power or express silent insults, or to show common group identity. The artists' aesthetic sensibility is revealed in the cloth's intricate patterns, textures and technical flair.

Stanley Wolukau-Wanambwa: One Wall a Web
Light Work Gallery

Light Work Gallery
316 Waverly Ave., Syracuse University, Syracuse

Stanley Wolukau-Wanambwa's "One Wall a Web" is an exhibition that gathers together work from two discrete photographic series that he made in the United States: "Our Present Invention" (2012–2014) and "All My Gone Life" (2014–2016). Both the series and the exhibition draw their titles from the poetry of Muriel Rukeyser.

"One Wall a Web" not only explores the mutability of archival images, but the ongoing presence of history in the present day. According to Wolukau-Wanambwa, the exhibition attempts to address "the normalcy of fear, separateness and violence in a moment suffused by them, but also in a culture riven by the habitually limited prescriptions of images." The exhibition comprises two distinct strands of photographs: the first, a series of appropriated archival 4 × 5 inch negatives; the second, a series of original photographs.

Stanley Wolukau-Wanambwa is a photographer, writer, and editor of The Great Leap Sideways. He has contributed essays to catalogues and monographs by Vanessa Winship, George Georgiou, and Paul Graham, written for Aperture magazine, and is a faculty member in the photography department at Purchase College, SUNY. Wolukau-Wanambwa participated in Light Work's Artist-in-Residence Program in May 2015.

Stanley Wolukau-Wanambwa: One Wall a Web
Light Work Gallery

Light Work Gallery
316 Waverly Ave., Syracuse University, Syracuse

Stanley Wolukau-Wanambwa's "One Wall a Web" is an exhibition that gathers together work from two discrete photographic series that he made in the United States: "Our Present Invention" (2012–2014) and "All My Gone Life" (2014–2016). Both the series and the exhibition draw their titles from the poetry of Muriel Rukeyser.

"One Wall a Web" not only explores the mutability of archival images, but the ongoing presence of history in the present day. According to Wolukau-Wanambwa, the exhibition attempts to address "the normalcy of fear, separateness and violence in a moment suffused by them, but also in a culture riven by the habitually limited prescriptions of images." The exhibition comprises two distinct strands of photographs: the first, a series of appropriated archival 4 × 5 inch negatives; the second, a series of original photographs.

Stanley Wolukau-Wanambwa is a photographer, writer, and editor of The Great Leap Sideways. He has contributed essays to catalogues and monographs by Vanessa Winship, George Georgiou, and Paul Graham, written for Aperture magazine, and is a faculty member in the photography department at Purchase College, SUNY. Wolukau-Wanambwa participated in Light Work's Artist-in-Residence Program in May 2015.

It's A Wrap! West African Textiles
Syracuse University Art Museum

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

"It's A Wrap! West African Textiles" is an exhibition featuring over 40 examples of textiles and their accompanying tools. Drawn from geographically proximate locales in West Africa, including Mali, Niger, Burkina Faso, Cote d'Ivoire, Ghana, Nigeria and Cameroon, the textiles on display exemplify woven, stamped, appliqued, and resist-dyed techniques. Organized by Professor Michelle Gilbert, Department of Fine Arts, Trinity College, CT, and featuring objects on loan from the collections of Michelle Gilbert, and the Amyas Naegele and Eve Glasberg Collection, NY, this exhibition is sponsored in part by the Maxwell African Scholars Union, Moynihan Institute of Global Affairs, Syracuse University.

In all cultures clothing does more than simply cover the body. It communicates subtle visual messages about the owner. What and how it is worn, can be interpreted as a statement of flamboyant ostentation or modest conservatism. It may signal the prominence of a wealthy and powerful king, the presence of a deity, or the existence of a mad man. The textile culture in West African is very old, weaving is documented at Igbo Ukwu, Nigeria in the 9th-10th century and by the 11th century weaving flourished in Mali. Used in a variety of ways, African textiles can be presented as gifts to the living and the dead; used in a bride's dowry; displayed at weddings and funerals; used as blankets for protection from the cold and mosquitoes; spread on the ground for a chief to walk over or placed in layers to cover his palanquin or funeral bed. Textiles are worn to flatter or flirt, to display power or express silent insults, or to show common group identity. The artists' aesthetic sensibility is revealed in the cloth's intricate patterns, textures and technical flair.

"within walls" reflects upon the natural processes of growth and decay. Each piece, made out of many cast or modeled fragments, is the outcome of the process of making it. The wall, no longer flat, becomes the concrete support of the work. A mural like quality of the pieces transforms the wall into a tactile and intricate sensuous surface. Ornament and wall become a metaphor for a time caught between permanence and evanescence.
