401 Harrison St., Syracuse

Renqian Yang is an artist and Associate Professor of Ceramics at SUNY Oswego. She earned her BFA from the Sichuan Fine Arts Institute, China (2009), and her MFA from Syracuse University (2014).

A Long Look: Documentary Photography, 1888-2016
Everson Museum of Art

Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St., Syracuse

A Long Look: Documentary Photography, 1888-2016 traces more than a century of photographers turning their lenses toward the world as witnesses, advocates, and storytellers. From the late 19th century, when advances in camera technology first allowed photographers to record spontaneous moments, to the bold and colorful images of today, documentary photography has shaped how people see the world, both its past and its present.

Documentary photographers traditionally immerse themselves in their subjects. Bruce Davidson spent 10 days living in the mining communities of South Wales producing his Welsh Miners portfolio. Aaron Siskind's Harlem Document project plays out over nine years, showing the vibrant life of Black Americans in Harlem in the 1930s. Donna Ferrato has spent decades documenting survivors of domestic violence and advocating for their welfare. Documentary photographers reveal how sustained engagement with their subjects, over ten days or several decades, produces images that challenge stereotypes, humanize the unfamiliar, and deepen public understanding.

A Long Look invites viewers to consider the significance of documentary photography as a medium, asking how photographs shape collective memory and inspire social awareness. Documentary photographers must often navigate the tension between art and journalism, frequently occupying a grey area between the two.

Sean Chambers & the Savoy Brown Rhythm Section
The 443 Social Club

The 443 Social Club
443 Burnet Ave., Syracuse

Florida-born Sean Chambers began his career in the Blues back in 1998 when he toured with the legendary Hubert Sumlin as his guitarist and band leader until 2003. During Sean's tenure with Mr. Sumlin, Britain's Guitarist magazine named Chambers as "One of the top 50 blues guitarists of the last century."

In 2023, shortly after the unfortunate passing of Savoy Brown's founder & leader, "Kim Simmonds", Chambers teamed up with the Savoy Brown rhythm section, Pat De Salvo on Bass, and Garnet Grimm on drums. Chambers and the members of Savoy Brown became friends after playing a festival together in 2019. Savoy Brown and Sean Chambers are on the same record label, so the change made sense and felt right to all three musicians.

Eric Johanson blends sharp songwriting with a deep connection to the guitar, creating music that's dynamic, soulful, and rooted in a mix of rock, roots, blues, and modern influences.
