Did you know there are several renowned art galleries on campus featuring changing exhibitions and collections? Galleries are located in and around the Berrie Center, within very close walking distance of each other, and admission is free<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The Art Galleries are aligned with the School of Contemporary Arts and serve as a fertile resource for the College and area communities. In addition to faculty and senior thesis exhibitions, the Kresge and Pascal Galleries<\/a> in the Berrie Center present a vibrant, international contemporary exhibition schedule. Ramapo College is also home to one of the largest academic collections of Haitian Art in any U.S. academic institution, which is continuously presented in the Selden Rodman Gallery<\/a> of Popular Arts in B-Wing. The Learning Commons Gallery<\/a> features regional artists, collections, interdisciplinary shows, and occasional student projects.<\/p>\n

A haunting and original exhibition about the Holocaust by Prague artists Gabriela Bulisova and Mark Isaac.<\/span><\/p>\n

Co-sponsored and co-produced by the Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies at Ramapo College, with additional sponsorship by the Sara & Sam Schoffer Holocaust Resource Center at Stockton University and the Stockton University Art Gallery.<\/p>\n

The Landscape of our Memory<\/em> is a long-term\u00a0artistic project that addresses the \u201cdispersed Holocaust\u201d or \u201cHolocaust by Bullets\u201d by commemorating the more than 2 million individuals who were killed in or near their hometowns rather than in major extermination camps. Inspired by the work of academics studying the Environmental History of the Holocaust (a relatively new sub-field of Holocaust studies), the artists use multiple antique and contemporary strategies\u00a0to, in the words of the late Austrian historian Martin Pollack, “restore the names, faces and stories” of those tragically lost.\u00a0\u00a0Initial work was\u00a0created under the auspices of two Fulbright Scholar grants in Poland, but the project now includes commemorations of those who lost their lives at the Terezin transit camp in the Czech Republic and will soon expand to other locations, including sites in Ukraine and Slovakia. Because every artistic technique is deeply rooted in the landscape, the project has an important environmental sensibility and begins a conversation about the relationship between genocide and ecocide. The artists believe that this will better prepare us to avoid future genocides and ecocides, including the possible extinction of the human race as a result of war or the\u00a0climate crisis.<\/p>\n

Ramapo Curatorial Prize exhibition, curated by Zuhra Amini featuring artists who work with fraught histories.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n

Fraction\/Refraction <\/em>brings together Kerr Cirilo, Clare Hu, and Basharat Ali Syed, whose image-based works push and pull highlighted, forgotten, or obscured layers of history to offer entry points into its constructed truths.\u00a0 The title references the scientific process of refraction whereby a wave bends as it passes through at least two mediums of differing densities, altering the wave\u2019s speed and direction. The exhibition considers how national narratives bend in relation to the density of images that alter personal and collective memories. Cirilo, Hu, and Syed each focus on their encounters with parts and pieces of saturated, neglected, and exploited images sourced from archives, documentaries, and online databases within their areas of research.\u00a0 In a time when images are easily distrusted, the artists in this exhibition are concerned with the vulnerability of images.\u00a0 Fraction, Refraction <\/em>makes a case for looking beyond the image at face value to tune into the labor and process by which political narratives are shaped in its failure.<\/p>\n

The Ramapo Curatorial Prize is awarded each year to a second-year graduate student at Bard College\u2019s Center for Curatorial Studies.<\/p>\n
