Kedra Kearis has been awarded a NY Historical Society Fellowship for her pre-doctoral research on women patrons of New York Society in the Gilded Age.

The Library's collections are particularly rich in material pertaining to the American Revolution and the early Republic, the Civil War, and the Gilded Age.

Tara Kaufman (MA anticipated) has been awarded the William H, Truettner Graduate Fellowship to work with Dr. Eleanor Harvey, Senior Curator at the Smithsonian American Art Museum in the summer of 2019. Her project, "Antartic Encounters: Perceiving Ecological Change in Frank Wilbert Stokes's Landscapes", an American artist who accompanied several scientific explorations to arctic regions. Stokes's representations of both Arctic and Antarctic landscapes raise critical questions regarding ecological implications of scientific and commercial exploration to regions that are now of urgent concern. Kaufman will consider his landscapes in the context of their being produced on the heels of the Hudson River School of painting, whose artists similarly embedded their landscapes with a sense of national progress.

SITE Seeing is a show about challenging the constructs of time and space and the potential to create new realities. Shifting possibilities of the real offers political agency and promise of new utopias. It is easy for us to imagine what could go wrong; and to see what has already gone wrong, but while we fight for a better world, it’s important to dream about what could be. The artists in this show slice through the fabric of reality to give us a glimpse of what could be on the other side.
Artists:
Lani Asuncion
Frances Beaver
Phaedra Call
Juliana Foster
Josh Graupera
Ron Tarver
Ellie Tomlinson
Zines from Martaleah Sandler, Josh Graupera and Metropolarity
