Reclaimed: The Art of Recology
Syracuse University Art Museum

Syracuse University Art Museum, Shaffer Art Building
Syracuse University, Syracuse

Reclaimed: The Art of Recology presents a survey of 33 artists who were selected to participate in Recology's Artist-in-Residence program, which began in 1990. Armed with safety gear and a shopping cart, each of these artists have scavenging privileges in the Public Reuse and Recycling Area—what most artists refer to as "The Big Store"—to recycle and reclaim the discarded waste as imagined art objects. Through introspective, playful, and highly original explorations, the artists reveal the hidden stories our rubbish tells us about our complex relationship with the world, while highlighting the need to create sustainable communities.

Realities Within
Everson Museum of Art

Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St., Syracuse

Realities Within presents four enduring genres of artmaking to explore how artists shape, frame, and inhabit the world. Whether a landscape, cityscape, still life, or representation of the human body, these works show how each artist's reality is impacted by their lived experience. Separated by genre and installed "salon-style" — a term inspired by the 18th and 19th century Paris Salons, where paintings were hung from floor to ceiling, covering every inch of wall space — the dense arrangement invites close looking and visual comparison, encouraging viewers to find connections across time, style, and subject matter.

   

New Works in Clay
Everson Museum of Art

Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St., Syracuse

The Everson has a long history of working with important contemporary artists. Over the last 58 years, the Everson has produced solo exhibitions for Yoko Ono, Morris Louis, Joan Mitchell, Bill Viola, William Wegman, Carrie Mae Weems, and a host of artists who loom large on the world stage. No exhibition in the Everson's history can compare to New Works in Clay by Contemporary Painters and Sculptors, a 1976 exhibition that involved bringing well-known painters and sculptors to Syracuse to produce a body of work in ceramics. The project was the brainchild of Margie Hughto, who served as both a professor at Syracuse University and as a curator at the Everson.

For the first time in 50 years, the Everson will bring together ceramic works by the original 11 participants, as well as works by artists like Kenneth Noland and Mary Frank who participated in subsequent projects in 1978 and 1981. Five decades later, it is not unusual for clay to be a part of an artist's repertoire. New Works in Clay explores how the Everson broke down barriers between art and craft and set the stage for the current ceramic renaissance in the art world.

We Are the Tigers
CNY Playhouse
Emily Harrington, director

Atonement Lutheran Church
116 W. Glen Ave., Syracuse

The Tigers' high school cheerleading squad is meeting for their annual sleepover at captain Riley's house, and they've brought plenty of their teenage troubles with them. Love triangles, a lustful boyfriend, and hurt feelings over a now-viral cheer stunt gone wrong complicate their team-bonding activities. So does the untimely death of one of their own in the front yard. Will that be the only murder? Who did it?

With a pop-driven, belting score and a seriously silly book, We Are the Tigers will have audiences cheering for The Tigers as these girls learn to cheer for themselves.

Book, music, and lyrics by Preston Max Allen.
