LAST CHANCE—CLOSING SEPTEMBER 15

Installation view of the exhibition "Growing Sideways"

...smart exhibition ... by turns heartwarming and unsettling, examining how young and old understand, learn from and control one another.

— Andrew Russeth, The New York Times

FORTHCOMING PUBLICATION

Shifting Shorelines: Art, Industry, and Ecology along the Hudson River, published in conjunction with an eponymous exhibition, brings together historical and contemporary art, material culture, and environmental science to engage in an interdisciplinary critical dialogue. Through visual, ecological, and material evidence the authors demonstrate the various cycles of exploitation, damage, and reclamation. In so doing, the publication offers a counter reading of the received art historical narratives about the "scenic Hudson" - narratives overwhelmingly grounded on the work of white male artists - and aims for a rich and complex understanding of the legacy, lives, and livelihoods along the river informed by the voices and experiences of a broad range of creators. Publication coming soon in Fall 2024.
