Artist Panel Discussion: Monday, February 22
In medieval times, sculptors and painters belonged to craft guilds. Renaissance artists sought to elevate the visual arts to the level of the humanities. Since then, the visual media and crafts have had an ever-changing and often debated relationship. The artists of “Arts from Craft” continue the debate by making works of fine art that acknowledge the traditions of craft. Included in the exhibition are Beth Giacummo, Eileen Winter Palmer, Maggie Avolio, Lisa Federici and Robert Stenzel.
March 8 to April 15
Artist’s Talk: Monday, March 22
Working in two- and three-dimensional media, Linda Gangian evokes monumentality through accumulations of minutiae. She reinterprets Middle Eastern and American craft traditions, recalling carpets, quilts and calligraphy. The works are impressions of urban
landscapes, which often reference specific sites and memories.
April 19 to May 13
The annual Student Art Exhibition includes exemplary works created in the art studios and classes of SJC Long Island students. As the recently created fine arts major matures, the art produced grows in depth and quality. Featured in this year’s exhibit are works in both two- and three-dimensional media, created in traditional and digital processes.
