Making American Artists: Stories from the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, 1776-1976
Everson Museum of Art

Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St., Syracuse

"Making American Artists: Stories from the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, 1776-1976" presents more than 70 of the most acclaimed and recognizable works of American art, which have played a demonstrable role in shaping conversations about the nation's history and identity. The exhibition explores new narratives of the history of American art, embracing stories about women artists, LGBTQ+ artists, and artists of color within a visual and thematic structure that also features iconic works traditionally associated with the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. "Making American Artists" presents PAFA's formidable collection of well-known historic works alongside pieces by traditionally underrepresented artists to pose questions about what it meant to be an American artist from when the institution was founded to the late 20th century.

"Making American Artists" features works from PAFA's esteemed collection that helped define new chapters in the history of American art, including works by Mary Cassatt, Barkley L. Hendricks, Edward Hopper, Alice Neel, Georgia O'Keeffe, Gilbert Stuart, Henry O. Tanner, and Andrew Wyeth. The exhibition also features icons of PAFA's history and collection, such as Stuart's "George Washington" (Lansdowne Portrait) (1796) and Charles Wilson Peale's "The Artist in His Museum" (1822).

   

Off the Rack
Everson Museum of Art

Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St., Syracuse

"Off the Rack" is the happy by-product of a major renovation of the Everson's on-site art storage.

As hundreds of paintings and framed works are displaced from their racks while renovations take place, the public has an unprecedented opportunity to view objects that have been in deep storage for years, never-before-seen recent acquisitions, and some perennial favorites — all hung together salon-style in our exhibition galleries.

This smorgasbord of paintings and works on paper showcases the breadth and depth of the Museum's collections and provides a glimpse into the world of collections management and care.

In the Center of the Crossroads: Fiber Art by Vanessa Johnson
ArtRage Gallery

Price: Free
ArtRage Gallery
505 Hawley Ave., Syracuse

In some traditional and legendary African and African-American belief systems, a Center of the Crossroads represents the rising and setting of the sun, and the human life cycle of death and rebirth. The center of a crossroads is where communications with spirits takes place.

"In The Center of The Crossroads" speaks from the center of the crossroads where our African and African American community reaches through time and space, confronts memory and future, communes with the Ancestors and future generations in this race for survival on a dying planet. The exhibition tells the story of the African American historical relationship with Mother Earth and the challenges we face addressing Environmental Racism and Climate Justice.

Vanessa Johnson is a Griot, a storyteller in the West African tradition. She is a quilter, mixed media fiber artist, community educator, museum consultant, activist, writer, playwright, actor, and vocalist.

Joiri Minaya and Miryam Charles: Lines of Flight
Urban Video Project

Everson Museum of Art Plaza
401 Harrison St., Syracuse

Light Work's Urban Video Project is pleased to present the exhibition Lines of Flight featuring short films by multimedia artist Joiri Minaya and filmmaker Miryam Charles exploring the tangled trajectories of displacement, immigration, invasion, exploration and escape.

The exhibition will run as an architectural projection on the Everson Museum facade. Screening begins at dusk.

Labadee, by Joiri Minaya, is a short video documenting parts of a Royal Caribbean cruise trip in Labadee, Haiti, and the dynamics that unfold in this privately-managed space, which is fenced off and leased to Royal Caribbean cruises until 2050. The subtitles in the video begin with text from the diary of Christopher Columbus when they first saw land, moving into a contemporary recount of the trip we're seeing. It meditates on the exploitation, self-exploitation, performance, and access control created by the system of tourism in the Caribbean, and, in linking it to Columbus' Invasion through the first sentences in the subtitles, it traces the lineage of these contemporary spaces to colonization. (2017, 7:06 minutes)

In Fly, Fly Sadness, by Miryam Charles, a nuclear explosion mysteriously transforms the voices of all the inhabitants of an island. A journalist travels to the island to learn more and finds herself transformed. (2015, 5:23 minutes)

The Revolutionists
Central New York Playhouse
Lynn Barbato King, director

Atonement Lutheran Church
116 W. Glen Ave., Syracuse

Four beautiful, badass women lose their heads in this irreverent, girl-powered comedy set during the French Revolution's Reign of Terror. Playwright Olympe de Gouges, assassin Charlotte Corday, former queen (and fan of ribbons) Marie Antoinette, and Haitian rebel Marianne Angelle hang out, murder Marat, and try to beat back the extremist insanity in 1793 Paris.

This grand and dream-tweaked comedy is about violence and legacy, art and activism, feminism and terrorism, compatriots and chosen sisters, and how we actually go about changing the world. It's a true story. Or total fiction. Or a play about a play. Or a raucous resurrection...that ends in a song and a scaffold.
