STEADY/RETCON
Syracuse University’s 2022 MFA Thesis Exhibition
Curated by Laura Dvorkin

A literary and cinematic technique, retcon is the abbreviation of retroactive continuity and means a new piece of information introduced to a story that alters the interpretation of an established narrative. Artists here evaluate and reframe their personal histories and standards of art-making. While in everyday life, the constant introduction of facts and opinions appears erratic, the investigations in the artwork are more intentional, slower-paced, steady.

Over a year of life with the pandemic had passed. During that time, the artists in this exhibition experienced isolation, loss, and grief. These works emerged out of such conditions, out of the uncertainty of precarious presents. Artists had to reconsider their practice and rethink their (and our) ways of being with others. Under such circumstances, they have found in art-making a way to cultivate their conditions for ongoingness, healing, and staying alive.

REWRITING HISTORY
Fabiola Juan-Louis
Curated by Sara Felice
September 7 - November 20, 2020

Haitian-American artist Fabiola Jean-Louis explores the relationship between history, memory, and identity.

From her paper gowns to the printed photographs, Jean-Louis guides us along her journey through the lens of time, bringing forth an awareness of the past that is both delicate and vital.

Rafael Trelles
Co-curated by Tere Paniagua and Sara Felice

CLICK HERE to view the exhibition catalogue

The Imagined Word included twenty-two works on paper by Puerto Rican artist Rafael Trelles. Produced between 2017 and 2019, these drawings combine painting and printmaking elements and feature protagonists from various literary sources. Throughout this series, Trelles masterfully weaves together themes of memory and reality; magic and the mundane; and art and literature. In The Imagined Word, Trelles employs references to Hispanic mythology and world literature. Influenced by surrealist Max Ernst, he brings the viewer on a voyage to an esoteric world of characters in dreamlike settings, where solitude reigns.

CLICK HERE to view the exhibition catalogue

Within the framework of luxury, conspicuous consumption, and materialistic value systems, the artists in this exhibition collectively allude to displacement as a result of late capitalism and the hostile climate that it nurtures—referencing the antagonistic relationship between capitalistic excess and the environment, the self and a sense of place.

Lucia Warck-Meister
Curated by Sara Felice
August 29 - October 4, 2019
CLICK HERE to view the exhibition catalogue

In ARTEMISIA, Argentine artist Lucia Warck-Meister interprets the story of Baroque painter Artemisia Gentileschi’s sexual assault that changed the way she saw herself, through the use of red satin, beads, metallic polyester, charcoal, and porcelain.

TIME CHANGES EVERYTHING
Margie Hughto, Darcy Gerbarg, Beth Bischoff and Franco Andres
Curated by Sara Felice
July 12 - August 9, 2019

Each artist in Time Changes Everything battles the temporality of human existence and the material world constructed around it. Bischoff’s photography expresses a harmony of the past and present depicting the ruins left in the world’s progression. Ceramist Margie Hughto draws inspiration from landfills and remains left by humans in the creation of her Excavation Series. Gerbarg forms The Syracuse Pictures, which abstract the world into its own heterotopia, existing in both the past and present. Andres realizes the difficulty of authenticity for artists as he utilizes an accumulation of mediums in the formation of one’s identity.

ALEPH
Pedro Roth
Co-curated by Tere Paniagua and Sara Felice
August 29 -October 7, 2017
CLICK HERE to view the exhibition catalogue

“Before, we were the Aleph, now we are transporters of the Aleph. We became dependent, enslaved by this invention. We talk about virus, viralize. We talk about it as if it were a symptom, something that is out there, from which we are contaminated. We trust our memory to it, our knowing. We fear something may happen to it. Borges destroys the Aleph, as Rabbi Loew does the Golem. They do not want to be slaves to their own creation. They realize that, in the wrong hands, this is a weapon. The Aleph as a fantasy is marvelous, but as a reality…”
 -Pedro Roth

Juan Juarez
February 16 – March 17, 2017
CLICK HERE to view the exhibition catalogue

Corpus examines decay and nothingness through a multi-media installation. A neglected residence becomes a symbolic metaphor for the gradual decay of the body and mind over time. The artist explores the human desire to leave tangible remains, which creates the ambiance of physical existence. Juarez compares the deterioration of mind and body through aging to the neglect and ruin decay of the structural integrity of a home. Both experiences of home encompass a physical and an emotional presence.

OBSCURUS
Sunyoung Lee, Teo Yamanidze, Joseph Turek, and Tong Zhang
January 19 – February 4, 2017

The more things there are in the world, the more gaps that exist between them, and the less we understand. Those who continue to look at something and begin to notice more and more, lose the definition of the whole. Art objects, especially paintings, take on a contemplative quality almost immediately. Sometimes they fade into the obscurity of other images, but this interplay between vaguery and knowable is what injects vitality.

WITHIN WALLS
Karin Waisman
November 3 – December 10, 2016
CLICK HERE to view the exhibition catalogue

This body of work reflects upon the natural process of growth and decay. Each piece, made out of many cast or modeled fragments, is the outcome of the process of making it. The wall, no longer flat, becomes the concrete support of the work. A mural like quality of the pieces transforms the wall into a tactile and intricate sensuous surface. Ornament and wall become a metaphor for a time caught between permanence and evanescence.

WOE: GLOBALIZED SADNESS

THE BLUE OF RUINS
Arnaldo Roche Rabell
Curated by Liliana Ramos Collado
March 24 – June 4, 2016
CLICK HERE to view the exhibition catalogue

Arnaldo Roche’s “blue” paintings and drawings made between 2007 and 2016 use techniques such as brush drawing, scraping, and rubbing on the material’s surface to explore what is left of the subject. Concerning his process, the artist Roche states “I’m trying to see what I cannot see, by looking with my hands.” Many of the works include still-life and self-portrait, allowing Roche to comment on both the wholesomeness of the artist as a subject and his relationship with memory and the world of objects. Mind and body, object and subject, art and nature come to a crisis of form in works that portray an exploded body, a denatured nature, and artworks about to come apart.

Co-curated by Tere Paniagua and Miranda Troudt
March 26 – April 25, 2015
CLICK HERE to view the exhibition catalogue

Darkness/Detritus/Illuminations, includes ink drawings, black and white photographs, and videos that explore the kinesthetic sensation of movement and of personal absence that takes place as an artist when creating works of art. Through a series of 3 poems and almost 100 works of art, Eduardo Lalo examines the idea of eliminating the mind from the creation process and focusing on perpetual, almost obsessive, movements of the body as it forms gestures and marks. Lalo describes this action as a fundamental expression of what it is to be human and states that “to draw is to revisit ceaselessly this discontent and this finding.”

In reinterpreting symbolic constructions into miniature sculptures that allude to travel souvenirs, the artist tackles not only concepts of collection but also notions of personal and collective memories. Bosquê is interested in the meanings that human beings attach to places and objects, and how such experiences can serve as catalysts to alter public perspectives, inserting them into private domains.

Cardboard, created initially to contain other entities, functions as content.
