What This Journey Breeds

Ildiko Butler Gallery – Fordham University
Visual Arts Department + Refugee and Immigrant Fund
June 3 – September 30, 2016
Reception: June 10, 6-8PM

What This Journey Breeds, presented by the Visual Arts Department of Fordham University and the Refugee and Immigrant Fund (RIF), is an exhibition of multi-disciplinary work created by Visual Arts students with concentrations in Graphic Design, Painting & Drawing, Photography, Architecture, and Film & Video.

As its name suggests, What This Journey Breeds describes the culmination of this unique group of students’ formative engagement with RIF and the Brooklyn Grange. Over the course of the 2015-16 academic year, Fordham students have been working closely with RIF, participating from support group meetings, to interviews, and to hands-on volunteering in the gardens and at the University. In tandem to these experiences, they have been making work in response to their relationship with the asylum seekers, investigating themes of displacement, vulnerability, loss, and above all, hope. Most significantly, this journey revealed to its participants that atrocities can occur at every scale and knows no geographic, political, or cultural boundary.

Organized by Anibal Pella-Woo, Amie Cunat and Carleen Sheehan. Participating Artists: Francesca Aton, Anabelle Declement, Nicholas Eliades, Emma Kilroy, Margaret McCauley, James McCracken, David Quateman, Eamon Redpath, and Danielle Serigano.

Ladislav Sutnar Exhibition in Boston ?>

Ladislav Sutnar Exhibition in Boston

Ladislav Sutnar: Pioneer of Information Design, an exhibition that originated at Fordham’s Ildiko Butler Gallery is on view at Northeastern University’s 360 gallery:

Wed, June 22, 2016 – Sun, August 7, 2016
Gallery 360
Northeastern University, College of Arts, Media and Design
360 Huntington Ave., Boston, MA 02115

Monday through Friday, 11am – 7pm
Saturday 12pm – 5pm

Ladislav Sutnar was a master of making complex information simple. From 1941 to 1960, Sutnar, a Czechoslovakian immigrant who settled in New York City, served as the art director for F.W. Dodge Corporation’s Sweet Catalog Service. Sweet’s catalogs showcased plumbing, electrical, and building supplies that were marketed to the architecture and engineering trades. Sutnar and his team of writers and designers transformed the catalogs’ complicated product information into clear, concise, easy-to-understand images that were a precursor to the artistic discipline of information design. Sutnar used shapes, symbols, blocks of color, indexes, and other tools to help Sweet’s readers quickly and easily navigate each catalog page. This exhibit features more than 50 Sweet’s catalogs and other stunning artworks created by Sutnar. Curated by Patricia Belen and Greg D’Onofrio.
