2017 Light Work Grants: Mary Helena Clark, Joe Librandi-Cowen, Stephanie Mercedes Light Work 316 Waverly Ave. Syracuse, NY 13244 315.443.1300 Stephanie Mercedes, Castigos, http://www.lightwork.org 2017, Mary Helena Clark, 2017, Joe Librandi-Cowan, The Auburn System Line-up, 2015 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE August 10, 2017 2017 Light Work Grants: Mary Helena Clark, Joe Librandi-Cowen, Stephanie Mercedes August 28 – October 19, 2017 Light Work Hallway Gallery Reception: Wednesday, September 13, 5-6 p.m. (Syracuse, NY August 10, 2017) Light Work is pleased to announce an exhibition of works by recipients of the 43rd annual Light Work Grants in Photography. The 2017 recipients are Mary Helena Clark, Joe Librandi-Cowan, and Stephanie Mercedes. The exhibition will be on view in the Hallway Gallery at Light Work from August 28 - October 19, 2017, with an opening reception Wednesday, September 13, from 5:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. The Light Work Grants in Photography program is a part of Light Work’s ongoing effort to provide support and encouragement to Central New York artists working in photography. Established in 1975, it is one of the longest-running photography fellowship programs in the country. Each recipient receives a $3,000 award, participates in the opening fall season exhibition, and appears in Contact Sheet: The Light Work Annual. This year’s judges were Jacqueline Bates (Photography Director, California Sunday Magazine), Kottie Gaydos (Curator and Director of Operations, Detroit Center for Contemporary Photography), and Charles Guice (Director, Charles Guice Contemporary, and Co-founder, Converging Perspectives). Mary Helena Clark is an artist and educator based in Hamilton, New York. She has screened her films at the 2017 Whitney Biennial (New York City), the Wexner Center for the Arts (Columbus, OH), Grazer Kunstverein (Graz, Austria), Anthology Film Archives (New York City), Museum of Contemporary Photography (Chicago, IL), National Gallery of Art (Washington, DC), the Swedish Film Institute (Stockholm, Sweden), and in numerous festivals including the International Film Festival Rotterdam, the New York Film Festival, the Toronto International Film Festival, BFI London Film Festival, the Hong Kong International Film Festival, and BAMcinématek. She has curated film programs at Altman Siegel (San Francisco, CA), The Nightingale (Chicago, IL), and Bridget Donahue (New York, NY). Critiques of her work have appeared in Reverse Shot, Cinema Scope, Artforum, The Brooklyn Rail, and Filmmaker Magazine. “My work is motivated by the transportive qualities of cinema, employing the same fluidity and physical lawlessness that is at the heart of lyrical poetics—how rhythms can move a viewer through space while causal relationships splinter.” — Mary Helena Clark Joe Librandi-Cowan is a recent graduate of the College of Visual and Performing Arts at Syracuse University, where he studied fine art photography and was the recent recipient of an Imagining America Engagement Fellowship. His artistic practice is heavily community-based, dealing with the deep and complex issues of the prison industrial complex, its role in society, and its impact on his hometown’s community. Joe is a native of Auburn, NY—a community sustained by a maximum- security prison situated in the middle of the city. He works closely with community members and local educational institutions to create and show images that function inside the community by creating positive dialog around these difficult topics, while simultaneously allowing these images to function outside of the community by asking bigger questions about mass incarceration in American society. Librandi-Cowan has received a Finger Lakes Community Arts Grant and has had solo shows of his project The Auburn System at The Cayuga Museum of History and Art in Auburn, NY, and The Gallery at SUNY Onondaga in Syracuse, NY. He has also shown widely online, including a feature on Lensculture and an interview with Pete Brook of the Prison Photography Project. “My work brings these histories into discussion within the context of modern day mass incarceration to document and explore how a community so deeply ingrained within the prison industry and penal history coexists with its prison. The work also exists to foster a discussion that asks difficult questions regarding prisons, incarceration, and policing within American society.” — Joe Librandi-Cowan Stephanie Mercedes an Argentinian-American artist who studied Fine Art and Critical Studies at Smith College and the European Graduate School and was a 2014 recipient of the Norfolk Fellowship from Yale’s School of Art. Mercedes is interested in manipulating traditional forms of photography and investigating the role of photographic copyright in historical national memory. Her recent solo show, Luz del Día: Copyrighting the Light of Day, was on view at the Flower City Art Center and the Common Ground Gallery in Washington, DC, and at Antenna Gallery, New Orleans, LA. She has also exhibited at MORE Gallery in Italy and Puffin Cultural Foundation in 2017. Mercedes has performed and exhibited across the United States, Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, Switzerland, and Italy. She currently teaches a workshop titled, The Politics of Hope, Using Art as a Political Tool, Archives of the Future, and Law as Form. Mercedes won the 5 College Film Festival in 2015 and has had residencies at Bronx Museum of Art, Flower City Art Center, Kimmel Neilson Art Center, Lugar a Dudas, Largo das Artes, LPEP, and SOMA Summer. She lives in Hamilton, NY. “Even for those who have no connection to Argentina or the history of human rights violations in Latin America. My work is about attempting to restore the missing fragments of historical memory. Something, that I believe is a universal human desire.” — Stephanie Mercedes Light Work is pleased to welcome our new group of grantees to our vast alumni network, which includes artists such as Robert Knight, Lida Suchy, Marion Wilson, Allison Beondé, Thilde Jensen, and Costa Sakellariou.

  • Spring 2020 Newsletter 2 Exhibitions
    Spring 2020 1 Notes from the Museum March 24, 2020, is National Orange Day, marking the 150th Notes from the anniversary of the founding of Syracuse University. This important Museum milestone asks us to consider how the University shaped and impacted all the people who have been a part of it over the years and, just as importantly, how we, as part of the University today, will impact the future. As the campus art museum of Syracuse University, SUArt Galleries has an important role in this discussion because we know that art has the power to bring people together, to open our eyes to see new perspectives, and inspire us to think beyond our own experiences and disciplines. As we contemplate the future of Syracuse University, one of my goals for the museum is to bring people together, uniting the wider community with students, faculty, staff from every school and department through class visits, exhibitions and programming. With this goal, I hope the museum will be a place of rigorous interdisciplinary research, creative thinking and mindfulness, as well as an inclusive space that serves as a forum for a broad range of discussions. This spring semester brings a number of important exhibitions, Vanja Malloy, Ph.D. which I hope you’ll read about in this newsletter. Two of the shows Director and Chief Curator opening this January, Black Subjects in Modern Media Photography: Works from the George R. Rinhart Collection and Making History, Justifying Conquest: Depictions of Native Americans in American Book Company Textbooks, ask us to consider the historic role various forms of media have played in constructing and perpetuating racism.

  • Scholarship in Action: the Case for Engagement
    Scholarship in Action: The Case for Engagement Chancellor Nancy Cantor1 Taking Public Scholarship Seriously Momentum is growing to take public scholarship seriously2 as a movement that will “challenge and reshape the relationship between our colleges and universities and the society of which they are a part.”3 As the Kellogg Commission said at the dawn of this new millennium, “The irreducible idea is that we [American higher education] exist to advance the common good. the fundamental challenge with which we struggle is how to reshape our historic agreement with the American people so that it fits the times that are emerging instead of the times that have passed.”4 Tonight I want to make the case for bold, imaginative, reciprocal, and sustained engagements between colleges and universities and their many constituent communities, local as well as global. If we intend to pursue the vision of the university as a public good, with broad benefits for our knowledge society---especially for the understanding and practice of democracy and the values of diversity, social justice and peace---we must initiate and support these new kinds of engagements. And we must extend the practice of them from their historical roots in the great public land-grant universities and community colleges of our nation to the private colleges and universities in which innovations of significance and citizens of the future are also nurtured today. These more outward-looking engagements bring new forms of scholarship and new scholarly arrangements. They stretch the boundaries of our campuses and test our notions of who is a scholar and what scholarship is.

  • Marvin Israel (1924-1984) Was a Syracuse Native Gifts in Kind: Who Attended the School of Art at Syracuse University As a Graduate Marvin Israel Student in 1950
    Syracuse University Art Galleries Fall 2019 Notes From the Gallery This new academic year marks the sesquicentennial of Syracuse Notes From the University. It offers an opportunity to look back at the way the school Gallery has brought together faculty, students and staff over the course of 150 years, facilitating an exchange of research and ideas, and just as importantly, the founding of countless friendships. It also marks the beginning of my tenure as the second inaugural director and chief curator of the SUArt Galleries. I look forward to building on the impressive work of my predecessor, Domenic Iacono, whose time here highlighted the important role of the arts in teaching and learning across disciplines at the University. I am thrilled to take the helm of this impactful institution as we explore ways for the SUArt Galleries to connect with new audiences and inspire curiosity through its compelling exhibitions, public programs, acquisitions and opportunities for student engagement. This fall brings many fantastic new exhibitions and programs. Not a Metric Matters, opening August 15, is guest curated by DJ Hellerman from the Everson Museum. This exhibition highlights the current work of College of Visual and Performing Arts faculty, while Teaching Methods: The Legacy of Art and Design Faculty, organized by curator David Prince, examines historic faculty whose work is a part of the permanent collection. An exhibition on the Photo League and its emergence as the Vanja Malloy, Ph.D. first school of photography, curated by associate director Emily Director and Chief Curator Dittman, is on view in the Photo Study Room.
