Artists of all levels and abilities were invited to participate in a group exhibition of small works in the Susquehanna Art Museum’s historic bank vault! Because the original bank vault walls are lined with steel, the 4” x 12” submissions were created on magnetic templates. T

PICTURES, a series of paintings by Brooklyn-based artist Mackenzie Younger, is inspired by early American art and the prevalence of smartphone imagery in today’s culture. Younger’s work re-contextualizes historical paintings within the frames of the iPhone lock screen. The composition of each piece serves as a subtle commentary on the role of the smartphone as both benefactor of global curatorial practices, and disseminator of western democratic ideologies.

In partnership with The Entertainment Software Association and the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences, SAM is exhibiting selections from the annual Into the Pixel collection. Created in 2004, the annual ITP art exhibit honors video game artists who continue to push the interactive entertainment art form forward.

Philip Pearlstein: Seventy-Five Years of Painting is a survey exhibition featuring paintings by master realist Philip Pearlstein (b. 1924, Pittsburgh, PA). This exhibition includes the artist’s earliest works c. 1940’s through the development of the modern figure paintings for which he is internationally acclaimed.

Relics, a series of photographs by Pennsylvania native Stephen Althouse, portrays humanity through the tools and artifacts we leave behind. This collection of large scale black and white photographs transforms remnants from the past into powerful images captured in incredible detail.

The idea for the Doshi Open Studio began as the result of a meeting held at the Susquehanna Art Museum in the Doshi Gallery for Contemporary Art in September 2003, which asked the audience of about 75 people what activities they would like for the regional community of artists.

The Susquehanna Art Museum welcomes Grace Gilbert as the first student curator for the Education Center Gallery. Grace Gilbert is a senior at Lower Dauphin High School, where she serves as President of the National Art Honors Society.

The Vessels call for entries challenged artists to consider the functions and possibilities of a vessel, both visually and conceptually. The submissions were not limited by medium, but open to a wide interpretation of what a vessel can be. A Hollow Container?  A Ship or Boat?  A Duct or Canal?

Art in Balance: Motorcycles and Fine Art juxtaposes modern and contemporary artworks with a special group of eight motorcycles. Visitors are invited to explore the connections that link two-dimensional works of art with three-dimensional machines.

Earth and Tide: Connected Through Place consists of a group of South Central Pennsylvania artists who gather to exchange ideas and expand art communities. With artists of multiple disciplines, including painting, printmaking and mixed media, our work runs the visual spectrum.

New Geometry: Abstract Invitational features artists Matt Allyn Chapman (Lancaster, Pennsylvania), Nick Hollibaugh (Sutton, Massachusetts), Brittany Nelson (Richmond, Virginia), and Rosalyn Richards (Lewisburg, Pennsylvania). This selection of works represents a range of artists utilizing basic geometric forms as the building blocks for their compositions.
