In celebration of the Schweinfurth\u2019s 35th year, the Art Center is honoring their benefactor Julius Schweinfurth\u00a0by featuring four emerging artists from the central New York area. In his will, Julius Schweinfurth specified his\u00a0desire for the Art Center to be a place that provided opportunities for artists, \u201cwith particular attention to be\u00a0paid to those exhibiting a special talent for art in any form, and who intend to follow it as a life work.\u201d<\/p>\n

The artists include Rebecca Aloisio of Rochester, Madeline Bartley of Syracuse, Awe\u00f1heeyoh Powless of the\u00a0Onondaga Nation, and Eeva Siivonen of Helsinki, Finland, who currently lives in Utica.<\/p>\n

Each featured artist has\u00a0been given a solo exhibition in one of the Art Center\u2019s side galleries. All four exhibits will be on view from Sept.\u00a02 through Oct. 16, 2016. Powless will also be combining\u00a0her painting with Native American dance in a performance Oct. 7 from 5 to 8 \u00a0p.m.<\/p>\n

The artists were selected via nomination by established artists in the community. Bartley, Powless and\u00a0Siivonen were nominated by Dorene Quinn and Yvonne Buchanan of Syracuse. Aloisio was nominated by\u00a0Kevin Larmon of Jefferson.<\/p>\n

Aloisio\u2019s exhibit Static Truths is inspired by geometric anomalies and mathematical complexities such as the\u00a0Mobius Strip, which is both a two dimensional and three dimensional form. In Bartley\u2019s exhibit Unsettled\u00a0Configurations she uses mixed media, drawing, painting, and collage to create installations on the wall. In her\u00a0exhibition titled Dancing, Painting, Growing, Love, Powless uses traditional dance to create many of her\u00a0paintings. Siivonen\u2019s video Black River depicts reflections on water and scenes from a swamp landscape along\u00a0with narration and looks at the relationship between subjectivity and corporality.<\/p>\n

Also on view at the Schweinfurth in Gallery Julius is The Anatomy of the Spirit: A Collection of Mixed Media Paintings by Warner K. Varno. Varno currently resides in Denver Colorado, but is a native of Skaneateles.<\/p>\n

The Schweinfurth Art Center is open Tuesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sundays from 1 to 5 p.m.<\/p>\n

Schweinfurth Art Center programs are supported by the New York State Council for the Arts with the support\u00a0of Governor Andrew Cuomo and the New York State Legislature.
