At the Everson

  • On view through December 29, 2024: Fifty years following his Everson Museum debut, Syracuse-native Tim Atseff returns with a solo exhibition dedicated to a topic he knows intimately—the news media. Timed to coincide with the 2024 US Presidential elections, Tim Atseff: Final Edition features more than 15 works from the last decade, along with a selection of editorial cartoons penned during Atseff’s newspaper career. The exhibition will be accompanied by an extensive slate of programs focusing on journalism from a variety of perspectives, including symposia, lectures, film series, art-making workshops, and much more. ...

  • On view through December 29, 2024: Putting Art to Work features more than sixty prints made under the auspices of the Public Works of Art Project and the Federal Art Project between 1934 and 1942. Most of the prints in the Everson’s collection were donated to the Museum by the Public Works of Art Project of New York City, but Putting Art to Work includes key loans from the Syracuse University Art Museum, the Tyler Art Gallery at SUNY Oswego, the Picker Art Gallery at Colgate University, and the Onondaga Historical Association that show the program’s economic and cultural impact on our region’s public institutions and artists. ...

His work blends a respect for Japanese design with constant experimentation around the physical and chemical processes of clay and other materials.  “I believe we are primed to find beauty in the disorderly order of nature, and trying to evoke or harness that is the basis of much of my work,” he will often write in cards accompanying his work, “there is a lot I don’t know.”  Sabri is also a senior correspondent and host for Marketplace, a national business and economics news show on public radio....
