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.

Green Eyes: El Viejo -- Work by Ben Cleeton Community Folk Art Center
Community Folk Art Center
805 E. Genesee St.,
Syracuse
Green Eyes the Viejo copped out to a 7-year sentence after being arrested for possession of 300 grams of heroin in September. The photo series contrasts his life at home and on the streets of the Near Westside of Syracuse before his sentencing, with the impact on him and his family of his upcoming incarceration. Like Green Eyes' family, many within the Latino community feel the effects of drug arrests. While focusing on Green Eyes and his family, the show will include a series of portraits of individuals/families who have directly or indirectly felt the effects of the prison industrial complex.

Patterns in History: Vintage Quilts of Onondaga County Onondaga Historical Association
Onondaga Historical Association
321 Montgomery St.,
Syracuse
Approximately 20 crazy, patchwork, signature, applique, log cabin, and children's quilts, as well as individual quilt squares from the 1850s to the early 20th century, will adorn OHA's second floor gallery this summer and fall. Decorated with beautiful fabrics, patterns, and embroidered characters, OHA's collection represents the array of vintage quilts once used throughout Onondaga County. While some quilts were primarily utilitarian, made to keep their users warm, others were elaborate show pieces that highlighted the artistic skill of the maker. The collection also contains several quilts created to commemorate local people and/or events. A selection of intricate, colorful and even amusing quilts of excellent quality will be on display for all to see! During the quilt exhibit, OHA will raffle off a new quilt made by local quilter and businesswoman Joan Ford. The lap-sized quilt, named "Diamond Jubilee," is nearly all hand-pieced with floral fabrics cut into hexagons and triangles. The hand-quilting and hand embroidered details add to the vintage look of this special quilt.

Playing With Perception: Photographs by Florence Henri Everson Museum of Art
Price: $5 suggested donation Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
Drawn from the Everson's collection, this exhibition presents a selection of photographs by Florence Henri, an accomplished artist of the early 20th century who remains relatively unknown today. Henri studied painting with some of the major avant-garde artists of the 20th century, including Fernand Leger and Lazlo Moholy-Nagy, before turning to photography. Intrigued by notions of playing with perception in life as well as art, the androgynous Henri frequently utilized mirrors in her works to create reflections, distort images, and challenge reality. Her abstract compositions, portraits, and advertising images exploited the possibilities of photography and share affinities with the works of contemporaries like Herbert Bayer, Adolph Baron de Meyer, and Man Ray.

401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
This husband-and-wife artistic team explores the domestic side of life using their Houston home and its contents (including the kids and family dog) as both inspiration and material. Part performance and part installation, the artists record their process through videos and photographs that comment on family dynamics, life in the suburbs, and American consumerism. Their recent project, "Higher Ground," documents the family's efforts to build a spaceship in their backyard and then pilot it to the moon. Through video, sculpture, and photographs, visitors will follow their humorous yet poignant journey into outer space.

Bricks and Blocks Everson Museum of Art
Price: $5 suggested donation Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
"Bricks and Blocks" combines two seemingly dissimilar mediums, LEGOs and quilts, to celebrate color, pattern and construction and to take play and ingenuity to new heights. The exhibition features original small-scale LEGO designs alongside works by some of the finest quilters in the region. The LEGO Design Challenge: Build Your Syracuse called upon the community to reimagine Syracuse and its structures. Working in small scale, contributors of all ages gave a fresh look to Syracuse through the magic of LEGOs, considering new and improved buildings and modes of transportation they wish to see in their city. A panel of professional architects and local government officials carefully evaluated and selected submissions based on the creative application of LEGO bricks, imaginative design and concept, as well as difficulty of execution and vision. Concurrently, Central New York quilters were invited to submit original, contemporary quilts whose vibrant fabric narratives treat the eye to the themes of color, play and geometry and whose work demonstrates original feats of fiber engineering. Creativity comes in many forms. Together, the beauty and artistry of quilts and the innovation and imagination of the LEGO constructions entwine to create a vivid and playful presentation.

Handmade: The Art of Susan Roth Everson Museum of Art
Price: $5 suggested donation Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
This major exhibition surveys more than 40 years of work produced by the Canastota-based artist, ranging from her early stain paintings influenced by the Color Field painters to recent works in powder-coated steel. Roth's abstract, shaped canvases are composed of layers of color which often take on three-dimensional, sculptural forms. These innovative works are made possible through the use of acrylic products that Roth has had a hand in developing over the years in collaboration with Golden Artist Colors, a Central New York-based company that specializes in acrylic colors and mediums. Roth's restless experimentation has resulted in a body of work that pushes painting to the limits and has repeatedly opened new areas for exploration. Featuring more than 30 works from private and public collections, "Handmade" connects works across various periods in order to highlight the material and conceptual concerns that have remained constant throughout Roth's long career but which also continues to evolve.

Syracuse
Approximately 20 crazy, patchwork, signature, applique, log cabin, and children's quilts, as well as individual quilt squares from the 1850s to the early 20th century, will adorn OHA's second floor gallery this summer and fall. Decorated with beautiful fabrics, patterns, and embroidered characters, OHA's collection represents the array of vintage quilts once used throughout Onondaga County.

The collection also contains several quilts created to commemorate local people and/or events. A selection of intricate, colorful and even amusing quilts of excellent quality will be on display for all to see! During the quilt exhibit, OHA will raffle off a new quilt made by local quilter and businesswoman Joan Ford. The lap-sized quilt, named "Diamond Jubilee," is nearly all hand-pieced with floral fabrics cut into hexagons and triangles. The hand-quilting and hand embroidered details add to the vintage look of this special quilt.

Playing With Perception: Photographs by Florence Henri Everson Museum of Art
Price: $5 suggested donation Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
Drawn from the Everson's collection, this exhibition presents a selection of photographs by Florence Henri, an accomplished artist of the early 20th century who remains relatively unknown today. Henri studied painting with some of the major avant-garde artists of the 20th century, including Fernand Leger and Lazlo Moholy-Nagy, before turning to photography. Intrigued by notions of playing with perception in life as well as art, the androgynous Henri frequently utilized mirrors in her works to create reflections, distort images, and challenge reality. Her abstract compositions, portraits, and advertising images exploited the possibilities of photography and share affinities with the works of contemporaries like Herbert Bayer, Adolph Baron de Meyer, and Man Ray.

Handmade: The Art of Susan Roth Everson Museum of Art
Price: $5 suggested donation Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
This major exhibition surveys more than 40 years of work produced by the Canastota-based artist, ranging from her early stain paintings influenced by the Color Field painters to recent works in powder-coated steel. Roth's abstract, shaped canvases are composed of layers of color which often take on three-dimensional, sculptural forms. These innovative works are made possible through the use of acrylic products that Roth has had a hand in developing over the years in collaboration with Golden Artist Colors, a Central New York-based company that specializes in acrylic colors and mediums. Roth's restless experimentation has resulted in a body of work that pushes painting to the limits and has repeatedly opened new areas for exploration. Featuring more than 30 works from private and public collections, "Handmade" connects works across various periods in order to highlight the material and conceptual concerns that have remained constant throughout Roth's long career but which also continues to evolve.

Bricks and Blocks Everson Museum of Art
Price: $5 suggested donation Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
"Bricks and Blocks" combines two seemingly dissimilar mediums, LEGOs and quilts, to celebrate color, pattern and construction and to take play and ingenuity to new heights. The exhibition features original small-scale LEGO designs alongside works by some of the finest quilters in the region. The LEGO Design Challenge: Build Your Syracuse called upon the community to reimagine Syracuse and its structures. Working in small scale, contributors of all ages gave a fresh look to Syracuse through the magic of LEGOs, considering new and improved buildings and modes of transportation they wish to see in their city. A panel of professional architects and local government officials carefully evaluated and selected submissions based on the creative application of LEGO bricks, imaginative design and concept, as well as difficulty of execution and vision. Concurrently, Central New York quilters were invited to submit original, contemporary quilts whose vibrant fabric narratives treat the eye to the themes of color, play and geometry and whose work demonstrates original feats of fiber engineering. Creativity comes in many forms. Together, the beauty and artistry of quilts and the innovation and imagination of the LEGO constructions entwine to create a vivid and playful presentation.

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.

Bricks and Blocks Everson Museum of Art
Price: $5 suggested donation Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
"Bricks and Blocks" combines two seemingly dissimilar mediums, LEGOs and quilts, to celebrate color, pattern and construction and to take play and ingenuity to new heights. The exhibition features original small-scale LEGO designs alongside works by some of the finest quilters in the region. The LEGO Design Challenge: Build Your Syracuse called upon the community to reimagine Syracuse and its structures. Working in small scale, contributors of all ages gave a fresh look to Syracuse through the magic of LEGOs, considering new and improved buildings and modes of transportation they wish to see in their city. A panel of professional architects and local government officials carefully evaluated and selected submissions based on the creative application of LEGO bricks, imaginative design and concept, as well as difficulty of execution and vision. Concurrently, Central New York quilters were invited to submit original, contemporary quilts whose vibrant fabric narratives treat the eye to the themes of color, play and geometry and whose work demonstrates original feats of fiber engineering. Creativity comes in many forms. Together, the beauty and artistry of quilts and the innovation and imagination of the LEGO constructions entwine to create a vivid and playful presentation.

Patterns in History: Vintage Quilts of Onondaga County Onondaga Historical Association
Onondaga Historical Association
321 Montgomery St.,
Syracuse
Approximately 20 crazy, patchwork, signature, applique, log cabin, and children's quilts, as well as individual quilt squares from the 1850s to the early 20th century, will adorn OHA's second floor gallery this summer and fall. Decorated with beautiful fabrics, patterns, and embroidered characters, OHA's collection represents the array of vintage quilts once used throughout Onondaga County. While some quilts were primarily utilitarian, made to keep their users warm, others were elaborate show pieces that highlighted the artistic skill of the maker. The collection also contains several quilts created to commemorate local people and/or events. A selection of intricate, colorful and even amusing quilts of excellent quality will be on display for all to see! During the quilt exhibit, OHA will raffle off a new quilt made by local quilter and businesswoman Joan Ford. The lap-sized quilt, named "Diamond Jubilee," is nearly all hand-pieced with floral fabrics cut into hexagons and triangles. The hand-quilting and hand embroidered details add to the vintage look of this special quilt.

Winner of four 2000 TONY Awards, Elton John and Tim Rice's Aida is an epic tale of love, loyalty and betrayal chronicling the love triangle between Aida, a Nubian princess stolen from her country; Amneris, an Egyptian princess; and Radames, the soldier they both love.

As their forbidden love blossoms, Aida is forced to weigh her heart against the responsibility she faces as leader of her people. Aida and Radames's love for one another becomes a shining example of true devotion that ultimately transcends the vast cultural differences between their warring nations, heralding a time of unprecedented peace and prosperity. Music by Elton John; lyrics by Tim Rice; book by Linda Woolverton, Robert Falls, and David Henry Hwang. Music Direction by Abel Searor.

Playing With Perception: Photographs by Florence Henri Everson Museum of Art
Price: $5 suggested donation Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
Drawn from the Everson's collection, this exhibition presents a selection of photographs by Florence Henri, an accomplished artist of the early 20th century who remains relatively unknown today. Henri studied painting with some of the major avant-garde artists of the 20th century, including Fernand Leger and Lazlo Moholy-Nagy, before turning to photography. Intrigued by notions of playing with perception in life as well as art, the androgynous Henri frequently utilized mirrors in her works to create reflections, distort images, and challenge reality. Her abstract compositions, portraits, and advertising images exploited the possibilities of photography and share affinities with the works of contemporaries like Herbert Bayer, Adolph Baron de Meyer, and Man Ray.

Handmade: The Art of Susan Roth Everson Museum of Art
Price: $5 suggested donation Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
This major exhibition surveys more than 40 years of work produced by the Canastota-based artist, ranging from her early stain paintings influenced by the Color Field painters to recent works in powder-coated steel. Roth's abstract, shaped canvases are composed of layers of color which often take on three-dimensional, sculptural forms. These innovative works are made possible through the use of acrylic products that Roth has had a hand in developing over the years in collaboration with Golden Artist Colors, a Central New York-based company that specializes in acrylic colors and mediums. Roth's restless experimentation has resulted in a body of work that pushes painting to the limits and has repeatedly opened new areas for exploration. Featuring more than 30 works from private and public collections, "Handmade" connects works across various periods in order to highlight the material and conceptual concerns that have remained constant throughout Roth's long career but which also continues to evolve.
