Steven Bradford, Dead Man Shoes, 2007, mechanical, found and constructed elements

In our post-modern society, the art world is both more connected and more fragmented than ever before. New York City, once the capital of that world, is now just one of a network of regional centers spanning the globe. And close-up, contemporary practices appear to be a mash-up of disparate concepts, political agendas, media, and styles. Fields of Vision explores how art and design being made by full-time Department of Art faculty at the State University of New York at New Paltz fits into this local/global picture.

George Bellows, Base Hospital, 1918, Gift of the Collection of Arthur Anderson, 2002.079.006

In the spring of 1918, the American painter George Bellows began a series of lithographs that focused on atrocities committed during the First World War. Profoundly affected by a 1914 articles in the New York Times, Bellows resolved to give visual expression to what he had read. The lithographs on display pay tribute not only to Bellow's participation in the 1913 New York City Armory Show, whose centennial is celebrated this year, but also to the ensuing influence this ground breaking exhibition had on Woodstock's artists.
