In Da Window 4: Paper installation by Theresa Barry
Echo

745 N. Salina St. (formerly Craft Chemistry)
Syracuse

Theresa will be installing a paper sculpture in the Echo Studio windows that is meant to celebrate the coming of spring with color and whimsy. For Theresa, one of the biggest pleasures of the end of winter is shedding all the dark, heavy clothing we wear for so many months to keep warm. In March, we begin looking forward to lighter days, lighter clothing, and colorful things popping up out of the ground.

Two of her favorite things are store display windows and working with paper three dimensionally, and she loves that she is able to combine these things for this project. The sculpture will start in one window as a dress form and will visually continue in the second window, taking on a more abstract shape. Think: Pure fantasy, pure color, pure fun.

Theresa was inspired by the work of Bea Svenfeld, Jen Stark, Roxy Paine, and the late Alexander McQueen.

The Archive in Motion
Syracuse University Library Special Collections Research Center

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

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

Dan Wetmore: Golden Dawn
Light Work Gallery

Price: Free
Light Work Gallery
316 Waverly Ave., Syracuse University, Syracuse

Light Work and Community Darkrooms are pleased to present Dan Wetmore's exhibition Golden Dawn, a series of pictures made from 2009-2012, in and between Flint, MI, Binghamton, NY, Cleveland, OH, Wheeling, WV, and Pittsburgh, PA.

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

Michael Bühler-Rose: New Geographics
Light Work Gallery

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

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

Cuba 2014
Redhouse

Former Redhouse Theater
219 S. West St., Syracuse

Redhouse is proud to have Julieve Jubin's inspirational and touching photography entitled "Cuba 2014" on exhibit.

Julieve Jubin received her MFA from Visual Studies Workshop in Rochester. She is a photo-based artist working with digital and experimental approaches to the image. She has exhibited her work in the US, Canada, and Europe and is the recipient of several awards and artist residencies. Her work is in the collection of the New York University Law School, Fototeca Cuba, and several private collections. She has taught at The Cooper Union School of Art, the International Center of Photography, Purdue University, and is currently an Associate Professor of Art at SUNY Oswego. She resides in New York City and Oswego.

Artist Statement:
Within the last few years, I've traveled to Cuba to photograph, as well as teach my course, Travel Photography: Cuba. During my first research trip in 2011, I immediately recognized that Cuba was different than any other place I had been. Certainly, I expected to see the old American cars, Spanish colonial architecture, and propaganda. What I didn't expect was the richly textured character of the street life. ... Within the last few years, largely due to the economic reforms and loosening of restrictions, streets and neighborhoods are transforming as new small businesses develop and homes are being restored. Fortunately, this shifting landscape hasn't yet altered the daily rituals and spirited atmosphere of the street life I've been so privileged to know. But it's clear Cuba is moving away from the time capsule it once inhabited towards a new, yet undetermined future.

The gallery is open by appointment by phoning 315-425-0405.

Abisay Puentes: Mist/Brumas
La Casita Cultural Center

Price: Free
La Casita Cultural Center
109 Otisco St., Syracuse

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

In Da Window 4: Paper installation by Theresa Barry
Echo

745 N. Salina St. (formerly Craft Chemistry)
Syracuse

Theresa will be installing a paper sculpture in the Echo Studio windows that is meant to celebrate the coming of spring with color and whimsy. For Theresa, one of the biggest pleasures of the end of winter is shedding all the dark, heavy clothing we wear for so many months to keep warm. In March, we begin looking forward to lighter days, lighter clothing, and colorful things popping up out of the ground.

Two of her favorite things are store display windows and working with paper three dimensionally, and she loves that she is able to combine these things for this project. The sculpture will start in one window as a dress form and will visually continue in the second window, taking on a more abstract shape. Think: Pure fantasy, pure color, pure fun.

Theresa was inspired by the work of Bea Svenfeld, Jen Stark, Roxy Paine, and the late Alexander McQueen.

The Archive in Motion
Syracuse University Library Special Collections Research Center

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

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

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

The annual master of fine arts exhibition features 21 artists from the Departments of Art and Transmedia. This year's presenting artists are working in a variety of media, including painting, photography, printmaking, sculpture, ceramics, film, and site-specific installation.

What sets the artists in The Way Out apart is the reinterpretation of traditional media into a contemporary context. Painting and drawing, printmaking, sculpture, photography, and film--all familiar instruments in the foundation of art making--have been introduced in a fresh milieu of concept and craft. Oil on canvas partnered with documentary video, works on paper that combine printmaking, drawing, and painting, and site-specific installations of ceramic sculpture and photography. They are fused with both familiar and previously unexplored concepts that range from notions of gender, family, and place to abstract narratives and sensory interaction.

International Art from the Permanent Collection
Syracuse University Art Museum

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

Highlighting the breadth of the collections' encyclopedic holdings and exploring international artists and themes, these new displays explore the genres of photography, prints, paintings and sculpture. Two of the exhibitions on display in the Print and Photo Study Galleries will highlight the University's vast holdings of historical Japanese photographs and prints. The third exhibition will examine artwork created by international artists who have immigrated to the United States.

America's Calling, presented in the Gallery of American Art, is an exhibition of 16 works of art by 15 foreign-born artists, including Ben Shahn, Yasuo Kuniyoshi, and Josef Albers. The artists included in the exhibition, or their families, were drawn to the United States because it offered opportunities unavailable in their homelands. A variety of media is presented in the display, including painting, ceramics, sculpture and printmaking that are handled using often innovative techniques. Cumulatively, these artists had a profound and permanent effect on the evolution of American art.

The Photo Study Room will present Visions for Sale: Photographs of Nineteenth Century Japan, an exhibition of 22 hand-colored albumen prints from the 19th century exploring the country's people, land and environment that was quickly changing due to modernization. European photographers such as Felice Beato and Baron Raimond Stillfield traveled to Japan to document the nation's exotic landscape and historically idiosyncratic jobs before they were swept away by the tide of modernism.

Ukiyo-e to Shin Hanga: Japanese Woodcuts from the Syracuse University Art Collection will be installed in the Print Study Room and draws from the University's collection of over 300 examples from this important and hugely influential art movement. The prints on view date from the height of color Ukiyo-e printmaking (c1780-1868) through Japan's Meiji period (1868-1912) to 20th century impressions of the Shin Hanga movement (1915-1940s). Masters of this medium are represented, including the work of Utamaro, Kuniyoshi, Hokusai, Hiroshida, Tsuchiya Koitsu and Yoshida Hiroshi. The prints exemplify the soft, painterly style that is synonymous with the Japanese woodcut, and illustrates the wide range of subjects from courtesans to Kabuki theater and the Japanese landscape.

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

"Three in Harmony" is an expressive collection of contemporary pieces that are artfully inspired from the Korean ceramic tradition. The artists, Eunjung Shin-Vargas, Jee Eun Lee, and Veronica Byun, have used their modern consciousness to create a deeply sensory experience with gentle Korean traditions. They've articulated a universal relevancy to the human condition, personal relationships, culture, and womanhood in each of their pieces. Even with each artist possessing a distinct personal style, the pieces fuse seamlessly to create this compelling, striking exhibition.

Dan Wetmore: Golden Dawn
Light Work Gallery

Price: Free
Light Work Gallery
316 Waverly Ave., Syracuse University, Syracuse

Light Work and Community Darkrooms are pleased to present Dan Wetmore's exhibition Golden Dawn, a series of pictures made from 2009-2012, in and between Flint, MI, Binghamton, NY, Cleveland, OH, Wheeling, WV, and Pittsburgh, PA.

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

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

Culture of the Cocktail Hour
Onondaga Historical Association

Onondaga Historical Association
321 Montgomery St., Syracuse

The story of cocktail fashions has several associations with local history. This exhibit will discover some of those people, places and events, including Syracuse's most famous cocktail lounges of days gone by. Cocktails also conjure up the exciting era of the Roaring Twenties, when speakeasies flourished during the decade of Prohibition. Displays will include the story of one of the most famous local speakeasies, located just a few hundred feet from the OH Museum, including a menu of its libations, and the tale of the police raid that shut it down. Also on exhibit, along with other documents and artifacts of the era will be an original federal court ledger listing arrests and convictions across the state for Prohibition violations and a local brewery's recipes for "near beer" and flavored sodas, which helped keep them in business through the infamous "dry" years when America famously tried unsuccessfully to eliminate intoxicating beverages from its culture.

Cuba 2014
Redhouse

Former Redhouse Theater
219 S. West St., Syracuse

Redhouse is proud to have Julieve Jubin's inspirational and touching photography entitled "Cuba 2014" on exhibit.

Julieve Jubin received her MFA from Visual Studies Workshop in Rochester. She is a photo-based artist working with digital and experimental approaches to the image. She has exhibited her work in the US, Canada, and Europe and is the recipient of several awards and artist residencies. Her work is in the collection of the New York University Law School, Fototeca Cuba, and several private collections. She has taught at The Cooper Union School of Art, the International Center of Photography, Purdue University, and is currently an Associate Professor of Art at SUNY Oswego. She resides in New York City and Oswego.

Artist Statement:
Within the last few years, I've traveled to Cuba to photograph, as well as teach my course, Travel Photography: Cuba. During my first research trip in 2011, I immediately recognized that Cuba was different than any other place I had been. Certainly, I expected to see the old American cars, Spanish colonial architecture, and propaganda. What I didn't expect was the richly textured character of the street life. ... Within the last few years, largely due to the economic reforms and loosening of restrictions, streets and neighborhoods are transforming as new small businesses develop and homes are being restored. Fortunately, this shifting landscape hasn't yet altered the daily rituals and spirited atmosphere of the street life I've been so privileged to know. But it's clear Cuba is moving away from the time capsule it once inhabited towards a new, yet undetermined future.

The gallery is open by appointment by phoning 315-425-0405.

The Way Out: MFA 2014
Syracuse University Art Museum

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

The annual master of fine arts exhibition features 21 artists from the Departments of Art and Transmedia. This year's presenting artists are working in a variety of media, including painting, photography, printmaking, sculpture, ceramics, film, and site-specific installation.

What sets the artists in The Way Out apart is the reinterpretation of traditional media into a contemporary context. Painting and drawing, printmaking, sculpture, photography, and film--all familiar instruments in the foundation of art making--have been introduced in a fresh milieu of concept and craft. Oil on canvas partnered with documentary video, works on paper that combine printmaking, drawing, and painting, and site-specific installations of ceramic sculpture and photography. They are fused with both familiar and previously unexplored concepts that range from notions of gender, family, and place to abstract narratives and sensory interaction.

International Art from the Permanent Collection
Syracuse University Art Museum

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

Highlighting the breadth of the collections' encyclopedic holdings and exploring international artists and themes, these new displays explore the genres of photography, prints, paintings and sculpture. Two of the exhibitions on display in the Print and Photo Study Galleries will highlight the University's vast holdings of historical Japanese photographs and prints. The third exhibition will examine artwork created by international artists who have immigrated to the United States.

America's Calling, presented in the Gallery of American Art, is an exhibition of 16 works of art by 15 foreign-born artists, including Ben Shahn, Yasuo Kuniyoshi, and Josef Albers. The artists included in the exhibition, or their families, were drawn to the United States because it offered opportunities unavailable in their homelands. A variety of media is presented in the display, including painting, ceramics, sculpture and printmaking that are handled using often innovative techniques. Cumulatively, these artists had a profound and permanent effect on the evolution of American art.

The Photo Study Room will present Visions for Sale: Photographs of Nineteenth Century Japan, an exhibition of 22 hand-colored albumen prints from the 19th century exploring the country's people, land and environment that was quickly changing due to modernization. European photographers such as Felice Beato and Baron Raimond Stillfield traveled to Japan to document the nation's exotic landscape and historically idiosyncratic jobs before they were swept away by the tide of modernism.

Ukiyo-e to Shin Hanga: Japanese Woodcuts from the Syracuse University Art Collection will be installed in the Print Study Room and draws from the University's collection of over 300 examples from this important and hugely influential art movement. The prints on view date from the height of color Ukiyo-e printmaking (c1780-1868) through Japan's Meiji period (1868-1912) to 20th century impressions of the Shin Hanga movement (1915-1940s). Masters of this medium are represented, including the work of Utamaro, Kuniyoshi, Hokusai, Hiroshida, Tsuchiya Koitsu and Yoshida Hiroshi. The prints exemplify the soft, painterly style that is synonymous with the Japanese woodcut, and illustrates the wide range of subjects from courtesans to Kabuki theater and the Japanese landscape.

Abisay Puentes: Mist/Brumas
La Casita Cultural Center

Price: Free
La Casita Cultural Center
109 Otisco St., Syracuse

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

Getting To Know You: Artists Examine Authentic Connections in the Digital Age
601 Tully

601 Tully St.
Syracuse

Featuring work by Fanny Allié, American Bear, CampusNeighbor, and damali abrams.

In the digital age, people can virtually live their lives online. With the advent of various social media platforms such as Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn, it is easier than ever to connect. However, are these relationships genuine? Furthermore, does a social medium foster intimacy or aid in the superficiality of our society? For this exhibition, 601 Tully does not seek to resolve these questions but rather, bring them to light. The featured artists offer avenues for people to have authentic connections with one another through various interactive mediums with and without the assistance of the internet.

New York-based artist, Fanny Allié, invited Syracuse residents to submit photos, memories, and stories about their lives in an attempt to learn more about the community. With each memento, Allié will construct a site-specific installation that will give the audience a window into the individuals living in this area.

While Allié's installation exemplifies the direct interaction between herself and the participant, the collaborative team of American Bear created prompts and assignments for the public to engage with one another. As the assignments are completed, American Bear hopes to foster a more compassionate and community-minded city.

Like many college towns, there is and has always been an underlying fissure between Syracuse University students and the permanent residents. In recent years, Nancy Cantor, former Syracuse University Chancellor, has worked to mend that divide by creating the initiative, Scholarship in Action. CampusNeighbor is a bartering website that builds on that idea by linking these two groups together through skill-sharing, with the hopes that these exchanges will help to dismantle barriers that have been created through the years.

Although all of the above require participation in order to activate the piece, damali abrams, a performance-based artist, takes a different approach by reading from her diary. By exposing herself in this vulnerable manner, it elicits the viewer to relate to her through shared experiences.

Whether one is simply telling their story to Allié or participating in CampusNeighbor, the exhibition aims to get to know you.

In Da Window 4: Paper installation by Theresa Barry
Echo

745 N. Salina St. (formerly Craft Chemistry)
Syracuse

Theresa will be installing a paper sculpture in the Echo Studio windows that is meant to celebrate the coming of spring with color and whimsy. For Theresa, one of the biggest pleasures of the end of winter is shedding all the dark, heavy clothing we wear for so many months to keep warm. In March, we begin looking forward to lighter days, lighter clothing, and colorful things popping up out of the ground.

Two of her favorite things are store display windows and working with paper three dimensionally, and she loves that she is able to combine these things for this project. The sculpture will start in one window as a dress form and will visually continue in the second window, taking on a more abstract shape. Think: Pure fantasy, pure color, pure fun.

Theresa was inspired by the work of Bea Svenfeld, Jen Stark, Roxy Paine, and the late Alexander McQueen.

The Archive in Motion
Syracuse University Library Special Collections Research Center

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

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

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

Onondaga Historical Association

The story of cocktail fashions has several associations with local history. This exhibit will discover some of those people, places and events, including Syracuse's most famous cocktail lounges of days gone by. Cocktails also conjure up the exciting era of the Roaring Twenties, when speakeasies flourished during the decade of Prohibition. Displays will include the story of one of the most famous local speakeasies, located just a few hundred feet from the OH Museum, including a menu of its libations, and the tale of the police raid that shut it down. Also on exhibit, along with other documents and artifacts of the era will be an original federal court ledger listing arrests and convictions across the state for Prohibition violations and a local brewery's recipes for "near beer" and flavored sodas, which helped keep them in business through the infamous "dry" years when America famously tried unsuccessfully to eliminate intoxicating beverages from its culture.

Cuba 2014
Redhouse

Former Redhouse Theater
219 S. West St., Syracuse

Redhouse is proud to have Julieve Jubin's inspirational and touching photography entitled "Cuba 2014" on exhibit.

Julieve Jubin received her MFA from Visual Studies Workshop in Rochester. She is a photo-based artist working with digital and experimental approaches to the image. She has exhibited her work in the US, Canada, and Europe and is the recipient of several awards and artist residencies. Her work is in the collection of the New York University Law School, Fototeca Cuba, and several private collections. She has taught at The Cooper Union School of Art, the International Center of Photography, Purdue University, and is currently an Associate Professor of Art at SUNY Oswego. She resides in New York City and Oswego.

Artist Statement:
Within the last few years, I've traveled to Cuba to photograph, as well as teach my course, Travel Photography: Cuba. During my first research trip in 2011, I immediately recognized that Cuba was different than any other place I had been. Certainly, I expected to see the old American cars, Spanish colonial architecture, and propaganda. What I didn't expect was the richly textured character of the street life. ... Within the last few years, largely due to the economic reforms and loosening of restrictions, streets and neighborhoods are transforming as new small businesses develop and homes are being restored. Fortunately, this shifting landscape hasn't yet altered the daily rituals and spirited atmosphere of the street life I've been so privileged to know. But it's clear Cuba is moving away from the time capsule it once inhabited towards a new, yet undetermined future.

The gallery is open by appointment by phoning 315-425-0405.

The Way Out: MFA 2014
Syracuse University Art Museum

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

The annual master of fine arts exhibition features 21 artists from the Departments of Art and Transmedia. This year's presenting artists are working in a variety of media, including painting, photography, printmaking, sculpture, ceramics, film, and site-specific installation.

What sets the artists in The Way Out apart is the reinterpretation of traditional media into a contemporary context. Painting and drawing, printmaking, sculpture, photography, and film--all familiar instruments in the foundation of art making--have been introduced in a fresh milieu of concept and craft. Oil on canvas partnered with documentary video, works on paper that combine printmaking, drawing, and painting, and site-specific installations of ceramic sculpture and photography. They are fused with both familiar and previously unexplored concepts that range from notions of gender, family, and place to abstract narratives and sensory interaction.

International Art from the Permanent Collection
Syracuse University Art Museum

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

Highlighting the breadth of the collections' encyclopedic holdings and exploring international artists and themes, these new displays explore the genres of photography, prints, paintings and sculpture. Two of the exhibitions on display in the Print and Photo Study Galleries will highlight the University's vast holdings of historical Japanese photographs and prints. The third exhibition will examine artwork created by international artists who have immigrated to the United States.

America's Calling, presented in the Gallery of American Art, is an exhibition of 16 works of art by 15 foreign-born artists, including Ben Shahn, Yasuo Kuniyoshi, and Josef Albers. The artists included in the exhibition, or their families, were drawn to the United States because it offered opportunities unavailable in their homelands. A variety of media is presented in the display, including painting, ceramics, sculpture and printmaking that are handled using often innovative techniques. Cumulatively, these artists had a profound and permanent effect on the evolution of American art.

The Photo Study Room will present Visions for Sale: Photographs of Nineteenth Century Japan, an exhibition of 22 hand-colored albumen prints from the 19th century exploring the country's people, land and environment that was quickly changing due to modernization. European photographers such as Felice Beato and Baron Raimond Stillfield traveled to Japan to document the nation's exotic landscape and historically idiosyncratic jobs before they were swept away by the tide of modernism.

Ukiyo-e to Shin Hanga: Japanese Woodcuts from the Syracuse University Art Collection will be installed in the Print Study Room and draws from the University's collection of over 300 examples from this important and hugely influential art movement. The prints on view date from the height of color Ukiyo-e printmaking (c1780-1868) through Japan's Meiji period (1868-1912) to 20th century impressions of the Shin Hanga movement (1915-1940s). Masters of this medium are represented, including the work of Utamaro, Kuniyoshi, Hokusai, Hiroshida, Tsuchiya Koitsu and Yoshida Hiroshi. The prints exemplify the soft, painterly style that is synonymous with the Japanese woodcut, and illustrates the wide range of subjects from courtesans to Kabuki theater and the Japanese landscape.

Abisay Puentes: Mist/Brumas
La Casita Cultural Center

Price: Free
La Casita Cultural Center
109 Otisco St., Syracuse

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

Getting To Know You: Artists Examine Authentic Connections in the Digital Age
601 Tully

601 Tully St.
Syracuse

Featuring work by Fanny Allié, American Bear, CampusNeighbor, and damali abrams.

In the digital age, people can virtually live their lives online. With the advent of various social media platforms such as Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn, it is easier than ever to connect. However, are these relationships genuine? Furthermore, does a social medium foster intimacy or aid in the superficiality of our society? For this exhibition, 601 Tully does not seek to resolve these questions but rather, bring them to light. The featured artists offer avenues for people to have authentic connections with one another through various interactive mediums with and without the assistance of the internet.

New York-based artist, Fanny Allié, invited Syracuse residents to submit photos, memories, and stories about their lives in an attempt to learn more about the community. With each memento, Allié will construct a site-specific installation that will give the audience a window into the individuals living in this area.

While Allié's installation exemplifies the direct interaction between herself and the participant, the collaborative team of American Bear created prompts and assignments for the public to engage with one another. As the assignments are completed, American Bear hopes to foster a more compassionate and community-minded city.

Like many college towns, there is and has always been an underlying fissure between Syracuse University students and the permanent residents. In recent years, Nancy Cantor, former Syracuse University Chancellor, has worked to mend that divide by creating the initiative, Scholarship in Action. CampusNeighbor is a bartering website that builds on that idea by linking these two groups together through skill-sharing, with the hopes that these exchanges will help to dismantle barriers that have been created through the years.

Although all of the above require participation in order to activate the piece, damali abrams, a performance-based artist, takes a different approach by reading from her diary. By exposing herself in this vulnerable manner, it elicits the viewer to relate to her through shared experiences.

Whether one is simply telling their story to Allié or participating in CampusNeighbor, the exhibition aims to get to know you.

Ann Hamilton: table of contents
Urban Video Project

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

World premiere of table of contents (2013-2014), a new piece by celebrated multimedia artist, Ann Hamilton.

When composer David Lang wrote the score for his notoriously difficult piece, "Table of Contents", he envisioned a nearly-impossible synchronization of two percussionists. After seeing a performance in 2011, Hamilton imagined attaching an array of low-resolution mini surveillance cameras to the hands of the percussionists and instruments. In the resulting piece, Hamilton's "table of contents", the cameras occupy the gap between hearing and seeing. The edit generates a counter-rhythm--a back-and-forth that brings us intimately into "impossible" virtuosity.

Set in 1953, Neil Simon's "flat-out funniest play in years" (Dennis Cunningham, CBS-TV) re-creates the mayhem, neuroses, nonstop gags, and constant one-upmanship of a team of brilliantly funny social misfits as they write The Max Prince Show, a weekly variety program. Among the crew are Milt, the insult artist; Ira, the hypochondriac whose dream is to have a virus named after him; and Val, a Russian émigré who takes a Berlitz course so he can curse without an accent. They are devoted to their boss, Max, a comic genius, a tyrant, and a paranoiac with a heart of gold. But his penchant for tippling and popping too many pills is growing under the pressures of a rising McCarthyism, network executives, and sponsors who want him to cut back his "too-smart" show and staff so that they can chase after the Leave It to Beaver and Father Knows Best audience.

In Da Window 4: Paper installation by Theresa Barry
Echo

745 N. Salina St. (formerly Craft Chemistry)
Syracuse

Theresa will be installing a paper sculpture in the Echo Studio windows that is meant to celebrate the coming of spring with color and whimsy. For Theresa, one of the biggest pleasures of the end of winter is shedding all the dark, heavy clothing we wear for so many months to keep warm. In March, we begin looking forward to lighter days, lighter clothing, and colorful things popping up out of the ground.

Two of her favorite things are store display windows and working with paper three dimensionally, and she loves that she is able to combine these things for this project. The sculpture will start in one window as a dress form and will visually continue in the second window, taking on a more abstract shape. Think: Pure fantasy, pure color, pure fun.

Theresa was inspired by the work of Bea Svenfeld, Jen Stark, Roxy Paine, and the late Alexander McQueen.

The Archive in Motion
Syracuse University Library Special Collections Research Center

Bird Library, 6th Floor
Syracuse University, Syracuse

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

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

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

She has exhibited her work in the US, Canada, and Europe and is the recipient of several awards and artist residencies. Her work is in the collection of the New York University Law School, Fototeca Cuba, and several private collections. She has taught at The Cooper Union School of Art, the International Center of Photography, Purdue University, and is currently an Associate Professor of Art at SUNY Oswego. She resides in New York City and Oswego.

Artist Statement:
Within the last few years, I've traveled to Cuba to photograph, as well as teach my course, Travel Photography: Cuba. During my first research trip in 2011, I immediately recognized that Cuba was different than any other place I had been. Certainly, I expected to see the old American cars, Spanish colonial architecture, and propaganda. What I didn't expect was the richly textured character of the street life. ... Within the last few years, largely due to the economic reforms and loosening of restrictions, streets and neighborhoods are transforming as new small businesses develop and homes are being restored. Fortunately, this shifting landscape hasn't yet altered the daily rituals and spirited atmosphere of the street life I've been so privileged to know. But it's clear Cuba is moving away from the time capsule it once inhabited towards a new, yet undetermined future.

The gallery is open by appointment by phoning 315-425-0405.

The Way Out: MFA 2014
Syracuse University Art Museum

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

The annual master of fine arts exhibition features 21 artists from the Departments of Art and Transmedia. This year's presenting artists are working in a variety of media, including painting, photography, printmaking, sculpture, ceramics, film, and site-specific installation.

What sets the artists in The Way Out apart is the reinterpretation of traditional media into a contemporary context. Painting and drawing, printmaking, sculpture, photography, and film--all familiar instruments in the foundation of art making--have been introduced in a fresh milieu of concept and craft. Oil on canvas partnered with documentary video, works on paper that combine printmaking, drawing, and painting, and site-specific installations of ceramic sculpture and photography. They are fused with both familiar and previously unexplored concepts that range from notions of gender, family, and place to abstract narratives and sensory interaction.

International Art from the Permanent Collection
Syracuse University Art Museum

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

Highlighting the breadth of the collections' encyclopedic holdings and exploring international artists and themes, these new displays explore the genres of photography, prints, paintings and sculpture. Two of the exhibitions on display in the Print and Photo Study Galleries will highlight the University's vast holdings of historical Japanese photographs and prints. The third exhibition will examine artwork created by international artists who have immigrated to the United States.

America's Calling, presented in the Gallery of American Art, is an exhibition of 16 works of art by 15 foreign-born artists, including Ben Shahn, Yasuo Kuniyoshi, and Josef Albers. The artists included in the exhibition, or their families, were drawn to the United States because it offered opportunities unavailable in their homelands. A variety of media is presented in the display, including painting, ceramics, sculpture and printmaking that are handled using often innovative techniques. Cumulatively, these artists had a profound and permanent effect on the evolution of American art.

The Photo Study Room will present Visions for Sale: Photographs of Nineteenth Century Japan, an exhibition of 22 hand-colored albumen prints from the 19th century exploring the country's people, land and environment that was quickly changing due to modernization. European photographers such as Felice Beato and Baron Raimond Stillfield traveled to Japan to document the nation's exotic landscape and historically idiosyncratic jobs before they were swept away by the tide of modernism.

Ukiyo-e to Shin Hanga: Japanese Woodcuts from the Syracuse University Art Collection will be installed in the Print Study Room and draws from the University's collection of over 300 examples from this important and hugely influential art movement. The prints on view date from the height of color Ukiyo-e printmaking (c1780-1868) through Japan's Meiji period (1868-1912) to 20th century impressions of the Shin Hanga movement (1915-1940s). Masters of this medium are represented, including the work of Utamaro, Kuniyoshi, Hokusai, Hiroshida, Tsuchiya Koitsu and Yoshida Hiroshi. The prints exemplify the soft, painterly style that is synonymous with the Japanese woodcut, and illustrates the wide range of subjects from courtesans to Kabuki theater and the Japanese landscape.

Constructivism: Photos by Robert Graham
Gallery 4040

Gallery 4040
4040 New Court Ave (off Midler), Syracuse

The photographs in Constructivism are inspired by some of the great movements in early 20th century art. Photographer Robert Graham cites specifically works by Kasimir Malevich, Wassily Kandinsky and Alexander Rodchenko as having major influence behind this new series. Graham's "Constructivism" exhibition coincides with the release of his book by the same title. For this occasion Graham states, "I put this exhibit and companion book under the Constructivist umbrella in part because of an affinity for Russian art, music, and literature."

Graham, who lives in Rochester, has published images from Syracuse in his book, and included them in this exhibition.

Abisay Puentes: Mist/Brumas
La Casita Cultural Center

Price: Free
La Casita Cultural Center
109 Otisco St., Syracuse

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

Getting To Know You: Artists Examine Authentic Connections in the Digital Age
601 Tully

601 Tully St.
Syracuse

Featuring work by Fanny Allié, American Bear, CampusNeighbor, and damali abrams.

In the digital age, people can virtually live their lives online. With the advent of various social media platforms such as Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn, it is easier than ever to connect. However, are these relationships genuine? Furthermore, does a social medium foster intimacy or aid in the superficiality of our society? For this exhibition, 601 Tully does not seek to resolve these questions but rather, bring them to light. The featured artists offer avenues for people to have authentic connections with one another through various interactive mediums with and without the assistance of the internet.

New York-based artist, Fanny Allié, invited Syracuse residents to submit photos, memories, and stories about their lives in an attempt to learn more about the community. With each memento, Allié will construct a site-specific installation that will give the audience a window into the individuals living in this area.

While Allié's installation exemplifies the direct interaction between herself and the participant, the collaborative team of American Bear created prompts and assignments for the public to engage with one another. As the assignments are completed, American Bear hopes to foster a more compassionate and community-minded city.

Like many college towns, there is and has always been an underlying fissure between Syracuse University students and the permanent residents. In recent years, Nancy Cantor, former Syracuse University Chancellor, has worked to mend that divide by creating the initiative, Scholarship in Action. CampusNeighbor is a bartering website that builds on that idea by linking these two groups together through skill-sharing, with the hopes that these exchanges will help to dismantle barriers that have been created through the years.

Although all of the above require participation in order to activate the piece, damali abrams, a performance-based artist, takes a different approach by reading from her diary. By exposing herself in this vulnerable manner, it elicits the viewer to relate to her through shared experiences.

Whether one is simply telling their story to Allié or participating in CampusNeighbor, the exhibition aims to get to know you.

Ann Hamilton: table of contents
Urban Video Project

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

World premiere of table of contents (2013-2014), a new piece by celebrated multimedia artist, Ann Hamilton.

When composer David Lang wrote the score for his notoriously difficult piece, "Table of Contents", he envisioned a nearly-impossible synchronization of two percussionists. After seeing a performance in 2011, Hamilton imagined attaching an array of low-resolution mini surveillance cameras to the hands of the percussionists and instruments. In the resulting piece, Hamilton's "table of contents", the cameras occupy the gap between hearing and seeing. The edit generates a counter-rhythm--a back-and-forth that brings us intimately into "impossible" virtuosity.

Creative Conversations: Elinor Freer and David Ying, with Holly Gregg
SKARTS

Price: $25
The Loft
42 Genesee St., Skaneateles

Award-wining musicians Elinor Freer and David Ying, currently serving their last year as co-artistic directors of the Skaneateles Festival, will be featured speakers in the next Creative Conversations, presented by the Skaneateles Area Arts Council (SKARTS).

The event, featuring an open discussion with questions from the audience, "will provide an opportunity for the audience to learn more about how this husband-and-wife team discovered their musical gifts and blossomed in a highly competitive field," says moderator Holly Gregg. It will not include a performance.

Ying, cellist in the Grammy Award-winning Ying Quartet, has also won recognition as an individual artist, including prizes in the Naumburg Cello Competition and the Washington International Competition. With the quartet, he has performed worldwide at such diverse venues as the White House, Carnegie Hall and the Sydney Opera House. He earned degrees from the Juilliard School and the Eastman School of Music, where he is on the cello and chamber music faculty.

Freer, a pianist, has built a versatile career as a soloist and chamber musician, performing across the United States and Europe. She was one of two American pianists selected to perform throughout China in tours designed to promote cultural relations. For her efforts to bring classical music to new audiences, she has received multiple grants from the National Endowment for the Arts. She, too, is on the faculty of the Eastman School of Music.

Their imaginative view of music has helped earn the Skaneateles Festival a devoted following and national recognition, including a special ASCAP award for adventurous programming.

Gregg is a member of the Dean Brothers band, and owned and operated World Media Communications, a television production company with offices in seven Northeastern cities and Canada, from 1985 to 2002. In addition to SKARTS, he holds leadership positions with Citizens to Preserve the Character of Skaneateles and the Finger Lakes Land Trust. He also is chief operating officer of Patience Brewster Inc., a worldwide ornament and gifts company that he and his wife established in 2002.

Tickets may be purchased at skarts.org/tickets. Attendance is limited and seating is on a first-come, first-served basis.

Laughter on the 23rd Floor
Central New York Playhouse

Price: $20
CNY Playhouse
Shoppingtown Mall, Entrance No. 4 (adjacent to parking garage), Dewitt

Set in 1953, Neil Simon's "flat-out funniest play in years" (Dennis Cunningham, CBS-TV) re-creates the mayhem, neuroses, nonstop gags, and constant one-upmanship of a team of brilliantly funny social misfits as they write The Max Prince Show, a weekly variety program. Among the crew are Milt, the insult artist; Ira, the hypochondriac whose dream is to have a virus named after him; and Val, a Russian émigré who takes a Berlitz course so he can curse without an accent. They are devoted to their boss, Max, a comic genius, a tyrant, and a paranoiac with a heart of gold. But his penchant for tippling and popping too many pills is growing under the pressures of a rising McCarthyism, network executives, and sponsors who want him to cut back his "too-smart" show and staff so that they can chase after the Leave It to Beaver and Father Knows Best audience.

In Da Window 4: Paper installation by Theresa Barry
Echo

745 N. Salina St. (formerly Craft Chemistry)
Syracuse

Theresa will be installing a paper sculpture in the Echo Studio windows that is meant to celebrate the coming of spring with color and whimsy. For Theresa, one of the biggest pleasures of the end of winter is shedding all the dark, heavy clothing we wear for so many months to keep warm. In March, we begin looking forward to lighter days, lighter clothing, and colorful things popping up out of the ground.

Two of her favorite things are store display windows and working with paper three dimensionally, and she loves that she is able to combine these things for this project. The sculpture will start in one window as a dress form and will visually continue in the second window, taking on a more abstract shape. Think: Pure fantasy, pure color, pure fun.

Theresa was inspired by the work of Bea Svenfeld, Jen Stark, Roxy Paine, and the late Alexander McQueen.

Culture of the Cocktail Hour
Onondaga Historical Association

Onondaga Historical Association
321 Montgomery St., Syracuse

The story of cocktail fashions has several associations with local history. This exhibit will discover some of those people, places and events, including Syracuse's most famous cocktail lounges of days gone by. Cocktails also conjure up the exciting era of the Roaring Twenties, when speakeasies flourished during the decade of Prohibition. Displays will include the story of one of the most famous local speakeasies, located just a few hundred feet from the OH Museum, including a menu of its libations, and the tale of the police raid that shut it down. Also on exhibit, along with other documents and artifacts of the era will be an original federal court ledger listing arrests and convictions across the state for Prohibition violations and a local brewery's recipes for "near beer" and flavored sodas, which helped keep them in business through the infamous "dry" years when America famously tried unsuccessfully to eliminate intoxicating beverages from its culture.

The Way Out: MFA 2014
Syracuse University Art Museum

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

The annual master of fine arts exhibition features 21 artists from the Departments of Art and Transmedia. This year's presenting artists are working in a variety of media, including painting, photography, printmaking, sculpture, ceramics, film, and site-specific installation.

What sets the artists in The Way Out apart is the reinterpretation of traditional media into a contemporary context. Painting and drawing, printmaking, sculpture, photography, and film--all familiar instruments in the foundation of art making--have been introduced in a fresh milieu of concept and craft. Oil on canvas partnered with documentary video, works on paper that combine printmaking, drawing, and painting, and site-specific installations of ceramic sculpture and photography. They are fused with both familiar and previously unexplored concepts that range from notions of gender, family, and place to abstract narratives and sensory interaction.

International Art from the Permanent Collection
Syracuse University Art Museum

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

Highlighting the breadth of the collections' encyclopedic holdings and exploring international artists and themes, these new displays explore the genres of photography, prints, paintings and sculpture. Two of the exhibitions on display in the Print and Photo Study Galleries will highlight the University's vast holdings of historical Japanese photographs and prints. The third exhibition will examine artwork created by international artists who have immigrated to the United States.

America's Calling, presented in the Gallery of American Art, is an exhibition of 16 works of art by 15 foreign-born artists, including Ben Shahn, Yasuo Kuniyoshi, and Josef Albers. The artists included in the exhibition, or their families, were drawn to the United States because it offered opportunities unavailable in their homelands. A variety of media is presented in the display, including painting, ceramics, sculpture and printmaking that are handled using often innovative techniques. Cumulatively, these artists had a profound and permanent effect on the evolution of American art.

The Photo Study Room will present Visions for Sale: Photographs of Nineteenth Century Japan, an exhibition of 22 hand-colored albumen prints from the 19th century exploring the country's people, land and environment that was quickly changing due to modernization. European photographers such as Felice Beato and Baron Raimond Stillfield traveled to Japan to document the nation's exotic landscape and historically idiosyncratic jobs before they were swept away by the tide of modernism.

Ukiyo-e to Shin Hanga: Japanese Woodcuts from the Syracuse University Art Collection will be installed in the Print Study Room and draws from the University's collection of over 300 examples from this important and hugely influential art movement. The prints on view date from the height of color Ukiyo-e printmaking (c1780-1868) through Japan's Meiji period (1868-1912) to 20th century impressions of the Shin Hanga movement (1915-1940s). Masters of this medium are represented, including the work of Utamaro, Kuniyoshi, Hokusai, Hiroshida, Tsuchiya Koitsu and Yoshida Hiroshi. The prints exemplify the soft, painterly style that is synonymous with the Japanese woodcut, and illustrates the wide range of subjects from courtesans to Kabuki theater and the Japanese landscape.

Constructivism: Photos by Robert Graham
Gallery 4040

Gallery 4040
4040 New Court Ave (off Midler), Syracuse

The photographs in Constructivism are inspired by some of the great movements in early 20th century art. Photographer Robert Graham cites specifically works by Kasimir Malevich, Wassily Kandinsky and Alexander Rodchenko as having major influence behind this new series. Graham's "Constructivism" exhibition coincides with the release of his book by the same title. For this occasion Graham states, "I put this exhibit and companion book under the Constructivist umbrella in part because of an affinity for Russian art, music, and literature."

Graham, who lives in Rochester, has published images from Syracuse in his book, and included them in this exhibition.

Getting To Know You: Artists Examine Authentic Connections in the Digital Age
601 Tully

601 Tully St.
Syracuse

Featuring work by Fanny Allié, American Bear, CampusNeighbor, and damali abrams.

In the digital age, people can virtually live their lives online. With the advent of various social media platforms such as Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn, it is easier than ever to connect. However, are these relationships genuine? Furthermore, does a social medium foster intimacy or aid in the superficiality of our society? For this exhibition, 601 Tully does not seek to resolve these questions but rather, bring them to light. The featured artists offer avenues for people to have authentic connections with one another through various interactive mediums with and without the assistance of the internet.

New York-based artist, Fanny Allié, invited Syracuse residents to submit photos, memories, and stories about their lives in an attempt to learn more about the community. With each memento, Allié will construct a site-specific installation that will give the audience a window into the individuals living in this area.

While Allié's installation exemplifies the direct interaction between herself and the participant, the collaborative team of American Bear created prompts and assignments for the public to engage with one another. As the assignments are completed, American Bear hopes to foster a more compassionate and community-minded city.

Like many college towns, there is and has always been an underlying fissure between Syracuse University students and the permanent residents. In recent years, Nancy Cantor, former Syracuse University Chancellor, has worked to mend that divide by creating the initiative, Scholarship in Action. CampusNeighbor is a bartering website that builds on that idea by linking these two groups together through skill-sharing, with the hopes that these exchanges will help to dismantle barriers that have been created through the years.

Although all of the above require participation in order to activate the piece, damali abrams, a performance-based artist, takes a different approach by reading from her diary. By exposing herself in this vulnerable manner, it elicits the viewer to relate to her through shared experiences.

Whether one is simply telling their story to Allié or participating in CampusNeighbor, the exhibition aims to get to know you.

Ann Hamilton: table of contents
Urban Video Project

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

World premiere of table of contents (2013-2014), a new piece by celebrated multimedia artist, Ann Hamilton.

When composer David Lang wrote the score for his notoriously difficult piece, "Table of Contents", he envisioned a nearly-impossible synchronization of two percussionists. After seeing a performance in 2011, Hamilton imagined attaching an array of low-resolution mini surveillance cameras to the hands of the percussionists and instruments. In the resulting piece, Hamilton's "table of contents", the cameras occupy the gap between hearing and seeing. The edit generates a counter-rhythm--a back-and-forth that brings us intimately into "impossible" virtuosity.

Tonight's show will be preceded by dinner at 6:45 pm.

Set in 1953, Neil Simon's "flat-out funniest play in years" (Dennis Cunningham, CBS-TV) re-creates the mayhem, neuroses, nonstop gags, and constant one-upmanship of a team of brilliantly funny social misfits as they write The Max Prince Show, a weekly variety program. Among the crew are Milt, the insult artist; Ira, the hypochondriac whose dream is to have a virus named after him; and Val, a Russian émigré who takes a Berlitz course so he can curse without an accent. They are devoted to their boss, Max, a comic genius, a tyrant, and a paranoiac with a heart of gold. But his penchant for tippling and popping too many pills is growing under the pressures of a rising McCarthyism, network executives, and sponsors who want him to cut back his "too-smart" show and staff so that they can chase after the Leave It to Beaver and Father Knows Best audience.

In Da Window 4: Paper installation by Theresa Barry
Echo

745 N. Salina St. (formerly Craft Chemistry)
Syracuse

Theresa will be installing a paper sculpture in the Echo Studio windows that is meant to celebrate the coming of spring with color and whimsy. For Theresa, one of the biggest pleasures of the end of winter is shedding all the dark, heavy clothing we wear for so many months to keep warm. In March, we begin looking forward to lighter days, lighter clothing, and colorful things popping up out of the ground.

Two of her favorite things are store display windows and working with paper three dimensionally, and she loves that she is able to combine these things for this project. The sculpture will start in one window as a dress form and will visually continue in the second window, taking on a more abstract shape. Think: Pure fantasy, pure color, pure fun.

Theresa was inspired by the work of Bea Svenfeld, Jen Stark, Roxy Paine, and the late Alexander McQueen.

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

Light Work Gallery

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

This exhibit will discover some of those people, places and events, including Syracuse's most famous cocktail lounges of days gone by. Cocktails also conjure up the exciting era of the Roaring Twenties, when speakeasies flourished during the decade of Prohibition. Displays will include the story of one of the most famous local speakeasies, located just a few hundred feet from the OH Museum, including a menu of its libations, and the tale of the police raid that shut it down. Also on exhibit, along with other documents and artifacts of the era will be an original federal court ledger listing arrests and convictions across the state for Prohibition violations and a local brewery's recipes for "near beer" and flavored sodas, which helped keep them in business through the infamous "dry" years when America famously tried unsuccessfully to eliminate intoxicating beverages from its culture.

International Art from the Permanent Collection
Syracuse University Art Museum

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

Highlighting the breadth of the collections' encyclopedic holdings and exploring international artists and themes, these new displays explore the genres of photography, prints, paintings and sculpture. Two of the exhibitions on display in the Print and Photo Study Galleries will highlight the University's vast holdings of historical Japanese photographs and prints. The third exhibition will examine artwork created by international artists who have immigrated to the United States.

America's Calling, presented in the Gallery of American Art, is an exhibition of 16 works of art by 15 foreign-born artists, including Ben Shahn, Yasuo Kuniyoshi, and Josef Albers. The artists included in the exhibition, or their families, were drawn to the United States because it offered opportunities unavailable in their homelands. A variety of media is presented in the display, including painting, ceramics, sculpture and printmaking that are handled using often innovative techniques. Cumulatively, these artists had a profound and permanent effect on the evolution of American art.

The Photo Study Room will present Visions for Sale: Photographs of Nineteenth Century Japan, an exhibition of 22 hand-colored albumen prints from the 19th century exploring the country's people, land and environment that was quickly changing due to modernization. European photographers such as Felice Beato and Baron Raimond Stillfield traveled to Japan to document the nation's exotic landscape and historically idiosyncratic jobs before they were swept away by the tide of modernism.

Ukiyo-e to Shin Hanga: Japanese Woodcuts from the Syracuse University Art Collection will be installed in the Print Study Room and draws from the University's collection of over 300 examples from this important and hugely influential art movement. The prints on view date from the height of color Ukiyo-e printmaking (c1780-1868) through Japan's Meiji period (1868-1912) to 20th century impressions of the Shin Hanga movement (1915-1940s). Masters of this medium are represented, including the work of Utamaro, Kuniyoshi, Hokusai, Hiroshida, Tsuchiya Koitsu and Yoshida Hiroshi. The prints exemplify the soft, painterly style that is synonymous with the Japanese woodcut, and illustrates the wide range of subjects from courtesans to Kabuki theater and the Japanese landscape.

The Way Out: MFA 2014
Syracuse University Art Museum

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

The annual master of fine arts exhibition features 21 artists from the Departments of Art and Transmedia. This year's presenting artists are working in a variety of media, including painting, photography, printmaking, sculpture, ceramics, film, and site-specific installation.

What sets the artists in The Way Out apart is the reinterpretation of traditional media into a contemporary context. Painting and drawing, printmaking, sculpture, photography, and film--all familiar instruments in the foundation of art making--have been introduced in a fresh milieu of concept and craft. Oil on canvas partnered with documentary video, works on paper that combine printmaking, drawing, and painting, and site-specific installations of ceramic sculpture and photography. They are fused with both familiar and previously unexplored concepts that range from notions of gender, family, and place to abstract narratives and sensory interaction.

Constructivism: Photos by Robert Graham
Gallery 4040

Gallery 4040
4040 New Court Ave (off Midler), Syracuse

The photographs in Constructivism are inspired by some of the great movements in early 20th century art. Photographer Robert Graham cites specifically works by Kasimir Malevich, Wassily Kandinsky and Alexander Rodchenko as having major influence behind this new series. Graham's "Constructivism" exhibition coincides with the release of his book by the same title. For this occasion Graham states, "I put this exhibit and companion book under the Constructivist umbrella in part because of an affinity for Russian art, music, and literature."

Graham, who lives in Rochester, has published images from Syracuse in his book, and included them in this exhibition.

Laughter on the 23rd Floor
Central New York Playhouse
Dustin M. Czarny, director

Price: $15
CNY Playhouse
Shoppingtown Mall, Entrance No. 4 (adjacent to parking garage), Dewitt

Set in 1953, Neil Simon's "flat-out funniest play in years" (Dennis Cunningham, CBS-TV) re-creates the mayhem, neuroses, nonstop gags, and constant one-upmanship of a team of brilliantly funny social misfits as they write The Max Prince Show, a weekly variety program. Among the crew are Milt, the insult artist; Ira, the hypochondriac whose dream is to have a virus named after him; and Val, a Russian émigré who takes a Berlitz course so he can curse without an accent. They are devoted to their boss, Max, a comic genius, a tyrant, and a paranoiac with a heart of gold. But his penchant for tippling and popping too many pills is growing under the pressures of a rising McCarthyism, network executives, and sponsors who want him to cut back his "too-smart" show and staff so that they can chase after the Leave It to Beaver and Father Knows Best audience.

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

In Da Window 4: Paper installation by Theresa Barry
Echo

745 N. Salina St. (formerly Craft Chemistry)
Syracuse

Theresa will be installing a paper sculpture in the Echo Studio windows that is meant to celebrate the coming of spring with color and whimsy. For Theresa, one of the biggest pleasures of the end of winter is shedding all the dark, heavy clothing we wear for so many months to keep warm. In March, we begin looking forward to lighter days, lighter clothing, and colorful things popping up out of the ground.

Two of her favorite things are store display windows and working with paper three dimensionally, and she loves that she is able to combine these things for this project. The sculpture will start in one window as a dress form and will visually continue in the second window, taking on a more abstract shape. Think: Pure fantasy, pure color, pure fun.

Theresa was inspired by the work of Bea Svenfeld, Jen Stark, Roxy Paine, and the late Alexander McQueen.

The Archive in Motion
Syracuse University Library Special Collections Research Center

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

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

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

Michael Bühler-Rose: New Geographics
Light Work Gallery

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

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

Abisay Puentes: Mist/Brumas
La Casita Cultural Center

Price: Free
La Casita Cultural Center
109 Otisco St., Syracuse

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