Tyler Art Gallery Exhibitions
Fall 2024 Exhibition Schedule:
Figuratively Speaking
September 3-October 6
Opening Reception Sept. 6, 5-7pm
Figuratively Speaking follows the tradition of exploring the human condition through representations of the figure. From exploring the need to feel beautiful and sexy in a world that judges you to exploring the dark and light side of being, confronting voyeuristic intrusion, and narratives of community, the exhibition is intended to challenge the viewer to see and not just look.
The exhibition highlights the work of artists connected to central New York in their exploration of body diversity and ecology. Some of the work will challenge viewers to confront their cultural stereotypes.
Featuring artwork by:

A Sabbatical Exhibition by Rennin Yang
October 11- November 15
Artist Reception Oct. 11, 5-7pm
Faculty Talk and Gallery Tour during the month.
Professor Renqian Yang's art explores the dance between opposing forces— restraint and liberation, pessimism and optimism. Rooted in her migration and survival experiences, she molds clay to embody vulnerabilities, desires, and emotions, capturing time and space within each piece. In Yang's hands, clay becomes a medium for both liberation and fluidity.
