  • "Monuments: Commemoration and Controversy": Feb. 27-June 14

    The 黑料视频 Art Museum presents "Monuments: Commemoration and Controversy," organized by The New York Historical, on view from Feb. 27-June 14, 2025.

    The exhibition explores public monuments and their representations as points of debate over national identity, politics and race. Monuments offer a historical foundation for understanding recent controversies, featuring fragments of a torn-down statue of King George III, a replica of a bulldozed monument by Harlem Renaissance sculptor Augusta Savage and a maquette of New York City鈥檚 first public monument to a Black woman (Harriet Tubman), among other objects. The exhibition reveals how monument-making and monument-breaking have long shaped American life as public statues have been celebrated, attacked, protested, altered and removed.

    "Monuments: Commemoration and Controversy" is curated by Wendy N'lani E. Ikemoto, vice president and chief curator at The New York Historical. The exhibition is supported by the Terra Foundation for American Art. Additional support is provided at 黑料视频 by the Office of the Provost, the Division of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, the Harpur College Dean鈥檚 Office, the Binghamton Fund for Excellence, the Kaschak Institute for Social Justice for Women and Girls and Rebecca Moshief and Harris Tilevitz 鈥78.

    Also opening in the Mezzanine Gallery is "Existential Color: Photography from the Permanent Collection," organized by John Tagg, SUNY Distinguished Professor of Art History, and Luisa Casella, photograph conservator and Fellow of the American Institute for Conservation. In 1976, John Szarkowski, director of the Department of Photography at the Museum of Modern Art, hailed the arrival of a 鈥渘ew generation of color photographers鈥 who saw color as 鈥渆xistential,鈥 鈥渁s though the world itself existed in color.鈥 This 鈥渘ew generation鈥 included William Eggleston, Stephen Shore and Joel Meyerowitz, whose work here prompts a wider re-examination of color in 黑料视频 Art Museum鈥檚 photographs collection. Within this exhibition, which features works made between the mid-1970s and the early 2000s, a display of historical processes dating back to the mid-nineteenth century shows that color was an integral part of photographic expression from its very beginnings. What viewers are asked is whether Szarkowski鈥檚 notion of a decisive break holds up or whether the question of color and photography has to be seen from a much longer and broader historical perspective.

    In the Museum鈥檚 Lower Galleries, three small exhibitions will also open: "Chiura Obata: Japanese Art in America," curated by Yao Shen He 鈥27; "History and Myth: Violence in Early Modern Prints," curated by Leah Dascoli 鈥26; and "Japanese Design and the Arts and Crafts Movement in New York," curated by Joseph Leach, curator of collections and exhibitions.

  • Crosswalk safety reminder

    The 黑料视频 campus becomes very active during the day with both vehicle and pedestrian traffic, especially when classes are changing. Pedestrian and motorist safety is a shared responsibility. Not following the laws, either by the pedestrian or motorist, can be very dangerous 鈥 even deadly.

    New York State Vehicle and Traffic Law 搂 1151 governs the responsibilities of pedestrians and drivers as they relate to crosswalks.

    What does this law mean for pedestrians and drivers?

    When a pedestrian is already within the crosswalk, the motorist must yield or stop. A motorist does not have to stop if a person is merely approaching the crosswalk, or signaling an intention to enter it, but only if a person is already in the crosswalk as the car is approaching. The law also prohibits pedestrians from suddenly stepping off the curb in front of a vehicle and walking into the path of the vehicle.

    In both cases 鈥 the motorist failing to yield or the pedestrian stepping off the curb 鈥 police can issue a traffic ticket to the person violating the law. That includes the pedestrian who is also required to obey Vehicle and Traffic Law (VTL 搂1150).

    Whether you鈥檙e a pedestrian or a driver, know the law and abide by it. Drivers, be aware of driving conditions, especially on a crowded college campus. Pedestrians, use caution when crossing a roadway. Look both ways before crossing and don't be distracted by friends or the music in your earphones.

    Pedestrians generally have the right of way in a crosswalk, but that right of way is not absolute and is frequently misunderstood. By understanding and respecting the law, both as drivers and pedestrians, our campus roadways will be safe for everyone.
