| Fields of Vision: Work by SUNY New Paltz Art Faculty
Curated by Carl Van Brunt April 13 – June 23, 2013 Opening Reception: Friday, April 12, 5-7 pm
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. |
Malian Portrait Photography and Curated by Daniel M. Leers These two exhibitions provide a nuanced glimpse of the people and culture of the West African nation of Mali. |
