SUMMARY:Exhibit Opening: Why Am I Sad by Dana Stirling | Formal/Informal: Innovations in Portraiture
DESCRIPTION:Why Am I Sad by Dana Stirling and Formal/Informal: Innovations in Portraiture will be on display from March 24 to May 15\, 2026. \n\n\n\nWhy Am I Sad by Dana Stirling explores mental health and depression through still life photography. An estimated 280 million people worldwide live with depression; this exhibition shares the personal narrative of one of them—Dana Stirling. As a child of immigrants\, she grew up navigating dual identities\, often feeling like an outsider in both cultures. This sense of displacement fostered deep isolation and emotional unrest. Photography became her refuge\, a way to express what words could not. \n\n\n\nFormal/ Informal: Innovations in Portraiture from the Syracuse University Art Museum explores the definition of portraiture\, comparing that formal term to the compositions created by photographers. During the 19th century\, formal studio or posed portraits flourished as a way to capture a vision of a person\, whether known or unknown to the photographer. The artist\, in turn\, utilized their craft to tell the story of the sitter. Images from the 20th and 21st centuries evolved into both formal and informal views of people\, as their environs began to play as much of a role in their portrait as their faces did. The result is a collection of portraits that could be serious\, playful\, have social or political ramifications\, or whose purpose is to celebrate the people\, famous or infamous\, ultimately telling the story of our society as a whole.

SUMMARY:Exhibition Opening: Pulse Nightclub: 49 Elegies by John Gutowsky | Out Loud: LGBTQIA+ Visibility in NEPA
DESCRIPTION:Pulse Nightclub: 49 Elegies by John Gutowsky | Out Loud: LGBTQIA+ Visibility in NEPAJune 12 – August 1\, 2026 \n\n\n\nThis summer\, Sordoni Art Gallery explores “Remembrance\, Resistance\, Resilience.” John Gutowsky’s 49 Elegies honors the 49 lives lost at Pulse nightclub in Orlando on June 12\, 2016\, alongside Out Loud: LGBTQIA+ Visibility in NEPA — a community exhibition and series of events celebrating connection\, empathy\, and visibility.__ \n\n\n\nPULSE Nightclub: 49 Elegies is a series made by artist John Gutoskey to honor and commemorate the 49 individuals massacred at the LGBTQ Pulse nightclub in Orlando\, Florida on June 12\, 2016. Gutoskey uses symbols that are personal to him and his experience as a gay man\, and combines them with other cultural and spiritual iconography that are more universally understood to create the 49 visual elegies or poems. \n\n\n\nAlthough I did not know any of the victims personally\, I felt an overwhelming sense of anger followed by a broad feeling of loss and an almost metaphysical sadness that this had happened to the LGBTQ community; that it had happened inside what was supposed to be a safe\, sacred queer space; and that it had happened to a minority within a minority\, as it was Latin night at PULSE Nightclub.​- John Gutoskey__During the darkest days of the AIDS crisis\, we buried our friends in the morning\, we protested in the afternoon\, and we danced all night. The dance kept us in the fight because it was the dance we were fighting for. It didn’t look like we were going to win then\, and we did. It doesn’t feel like we’re going to win now\, but we could. Keep fighting\, keep dancing.Dan Savage\, queer writer and activist \n\n\n\nPresented in partnership with the NEPA Pride Project\, Out Loud: LGBTQIA+ Visibility in NEPA explores remembrance\, resistance\, and resilience in the LGBTQIA+ community. These concepts sometimes feel like the pillars of queer existence. \n\n\n\nRemembering all those who came before us\, existing in silence and being erased. For those who were brave enough to be seen\, to face persecution\, dying at the hands of fellow humans and disease that was viewed as “punishment.” Fighting for existence\, for acceptance in the eyes of both government and neighbors – literally throwing bricks to demand justice. And\, finally\, existence rooted in resilience\, unapologetic truth\, and joy. Knowing that queer people have always been here\, and will continue to be here.

SUMMARY:Of Place and Passage: Actions and Images by Stephan Koplowitz
DESCRIPTION:Of Place and Passage: Actions and Images by Stephan Koplowitz explores the creative practice of internationally acclaimed choreographer and interdisciplinary artist Stephan Koplowitz\, whose work transforms architecture\, landscapes\, and public spaces into sites of movement\, perception\, and encounter. Bringing together photography\, video\, installation\, and archival materials\, the exhibition reveals the interconnected processes through which performance is conceived\, documented\, and remembered. \n\n\n\nRather than treating photography and moving image as records of completed performances\, Koplowitz uses them as integral choreographic tools—ways of observing\, composing\, and reimagining the relationships between bodies\, place\, and time. Across the exhibition\, visitors encounter works that trace the evolution of ideas from intimate studies of movement to ambitious\, large-scale performances unfolding across cities\, waterways\, and architectural landmarks. \n\n\n\nOrganized around themes of seeing\, repetition\, reflection\, and the choreography of public space\, Of Place and Passage invites audiences to experience movement beyond the stage. The exhibition offers a rare opportunity to explore the breadth of Koplowitz’s artistic practice while considering how performance continues to shape the ways we perceive our built and natural environments. Through image\, motion\, and spatial experience\, the exhibition encourages viewers to look closely\, move thoughtfully\, and discover choreography embedded within the everyday.

SUMMARY:Art in Context Film Screening of PINA
DESCRIPTION:Space is limited. Registration is required. \n\n\n\nIn modern dance since the 1970s\, few choreographers have had more influence in the medium than the late Pina Bausch. This film explores the life and work of this artist of movement as we see her company perform her most notable creations\, in which basic elements like water\, dirt\, and even gravity take on otherworldly qualities in their dancing.
