UPCOMING EXHIBITIONS

Art Within Art: The Everson at 50 commemorates the 50th anniversary of architect I.M. Pei’s landmark Everson Museum of Art. The exhibition and associated programming explore Pei’s radical notion that the structure of a museum is as important as the art it contains, a belief that directly impacts curatorial choices in both art and programs. Including never before seen plans, photographs, models, ephemera, and archival materials alongside selected artworks from the Everson’s collection, Art Within Art examines the aesthetic and conceptual similarities between Pei’s building and the art it houses, revealing the lasting impact of great architecture.

CNY Arts’ 45th annual On My Own Time exhibition connects Central New York businesses in a collaboration that promotes the benefits of the creative process across community sectors. Original works created by amateur artists working in a variety of professions were displayed at their work sites.

(Re) Generation: Women Artists After 60 explores the creative and transformative power of age for women artists working and thriving in the contemporary art world. This exhibition is presented through the Everson’s Community exhibitions programs.

Artist and theorist Suzanne Anker positions her work at the intersection of art and biology. Using a wide range of media, from genetically modified plants, digital sculpture and installation to large-scale photography, and projected video, Anker investigates climate change, species extinction, and toxic degradation to encourage critical and enlightened thinking about the ways humans are altering nature in the 21st century.

The work of pioneering video artist Frank Gillette focuses on humans’ experience of natural phenomena. Using multi-channel video installations with image feedback, time delay, and closed circuit systems, Gillette is of a generation of artists who defined the way video technologies would be used as an art form.
