Today's Events | Little Hall, Clifford Gallery (101 Little Hall)
For alliances with the beaver people features an 11 meter-long embroidered tapestry that illustrates key moments in the history of beaver-human relationships, tracing how rivers evolve through collaborations between these two species. An explicit reference to the 11th-century Bayeux Tapestry that depicted 58 unique scenes of battle, Husky’s work uses this tapestry form to visualize cross-species mutuality and regeneration rather than battle. The exhibition also features a documentary film about the Vermont naturalist Patti Smith, who takes us into her world of beaver friends and teachers. For the exhibition reception on February 12, Husky will be joined by a panel of researchers, writers, and naturalists (including Patti Smith) to discuss beaver ecologies and the future of their watersheds.In collaboration with Picker Art Gallery. Co-sponsored by Colgate Arts Council, University Studies, Environmental Studies, Film and Media Studies, Biology, Romance Languages and Literatures, Geography, and HistoryPlease note: Husky will also be exhibiting a textile work entitled La Noble Pastoral in Picker Gallery's A Thought Is A Thread: Contemporary Artists Reworking Textile Traditions, on exhibit February 21 through May 18.*Please note: Weekend hours are dependent on the availability of student monitors. If driving a distance, please contact the department (315-228-7633), during regular working hours, to ensure the gallery will be open. The gallery is not open during university breaks and holidays.

Today's Events | Little Hall, 105 (Golden Auditorium)
This program of film and video works spans almost forty years of Kathy High’s experimental media production career, including a variety of genres such as animation, documentary, performance using technology, science, speculative fiction and art. Many of the works look at women’s and animal bodies from a feminist perspective. Some are critical of the American medical system and its treatment of women as patients, showing an alternative gaze in response to the histories of western science. Some fall into animal studies from the beginning of this field, while others look at death and waste studies. High’s works give agency and autonomy to their characters, showing neurosis, loss, and respect, using somewhat anthropological approaches that are both playful and absurd, but always probing and provocative.This is the first in a three-day series of events featuring Kathy High. Wednesday, March 12, she will deliver the Annual Eric J. Ryan/FMST Annual New Media Lecture (4:30pm, Golden Auditorium), and she programmed the March 13 Ryan Family Film Series screening of "Mexican Muses: Works by Artists Ximena Cueva & Ricardo Nicolayevsky" (7:00pm, Golden Auditorium).

Voyage beyond the planet and experience our home through the eyes of Astronauts. Orbital is an epic journey from the Big Bang, to the flourishing of life on Earth, to low Earth orbit. A new film by Guy Reid and Planetary Collective, Orbital transports you through an abstract landscape of light, inspired by bioluminescent earthly beings and atmospheric aurorae. Guided by the voices of the astronauts and cosmonauts of Constellation Coalition who have looked back and experienced the awe of our place in the universe, you will feel your own “Overview Effect” as you meditate on our planet in Shared Reality.
