VPA’s Warehouse Gallery to Present Three-Part M.F.A. Thesis Exhibition ‘Unforeseen’

The College of Visual and Performing Arts’ (VPA) Warehouse Gallery will present “Unforeseen,” a three-part exhibition of thesis work by 32 master of fine arts (M.F.A.) students in the college’s School of Art and Department of Film and Media Arts.

The photograph shows a person in military camouflage standing with hands on hips in an outdoor setting with mountains and a clear sky in the background. The upper part of the photograph is burned, obscuring the person's head and part of the sky. A helicopter is visible flying in the sky above the mountains.

Ryan Mitchell, from the series “Thank You, For Your Service?”

Part one of the exhibition runs March 22-28, with an opening reception on Friday, March 21, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. The gallery is located in the Nancy Cantor Warehouse, 350 W. Fayette St., Syracuse.

Over the course of these three exhibitions an unfolding of experiences, investigations and unforeseen connections will arise. As the French composer Pierre Boulez said, “Creation exists only in the unforeseen made necessary.” The exhibition schedule and artists are as follows:
