S aturated Sight: Works of Many Dimensions from the Collection of theMunson-Williams-Proctor Arts Institute presents works of art thatexpress meaning by moving beyond the basic principles of two- and

three-dimensional objects. Text is an integral part of each of the works;from the formal calligraphy in a 15th-century illuminated manuscript to alate 19th-century iron garden bench that casts the word “Fern” in shadowon the ground below.Reading the texts, and inone case, also listening tomusic, introduces the ele-ment of time, known as thefourth dimension.Saturated sight, is a quotefrom the poem by EmilyDickenson in contemporaryartist Elaine Reichek’sembroidery sampler in theexhibition, and seems tocharacterize an effect theobjects share: layering, tex-ture, and visual density.

The students, Jack Hauckand Kaitlin Rutledge fromSauquoit Valley, GabrielleKinney from Herkimer, NickMurphy from Clinton, andAlexa Wichowsky from Mt.Markham, worked together with MWPAI staff on all aspects of producingthe exhibition, from selecting the objects to presenting the opening gallerytalk. They began by meeting with museum curators and reviewing objectsin the museum’s collection. In subsequent meetings the students met andworked with other museum staff to learn about each person’s career back-ground and role at the museum. The students completed regular assign-ments and participated in art research, publication design, marketing, exhi-bition layout and installation, object label writing, and audioguideproduction for the exhibition.

For more information about the program, contact Museum EducationDirector, April Oswald, at 797-0000 ext. 2144, or aoswald@mwpai.org.Upon the opening of the exhibition, listen to the exhibition audioguide atwww.mwpai.org/museum/events.

The Museum of Art will again join the ranks of many other worldwidesites -from the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, to theNational Gallery of Australia in Canberra - for Slow Art Day.

It's a basic idea and a simple process, born of a desire to encourage peo-ple to take some time to look at art. Across the globe on Saturday, April28, volunteer hosts (not necessarily experts) invite people to visit a localmuseum and view a small number of works of art, on their own, for five to10 minutes each. Then everyone meets for lunch at a nearby cafe to talkabout their experiences. Slow Art Day originated with four people in thesummer of 2009 at New York’s Museum of Modern Art. With the successof that first, small experiment the organizers attempted a larger event inOctober 2009, which featured 16 museums and galleries in the U.S.,Canada and Europe. Attendee feedback was so enthusiastic that Slow ArtDay has become an annual global event.

To participate in Utica Slow Art Day, register atslowartutica2011.eventbrite.com. Participants will receive an email twoweeks before the day with details about the artworks to view between 11am and 1 pm. The artworks will be discussed at lunch at the TramontaneCafé, 1105 Lincoln Avenue, just two blocks from MWPAI. More informationis available at www.slowartday.com.

From MWPAI to Juilliard and BeyondWhile many senior high school students await the news from col-

leges at this time each year, dancers of all ages at MWPAI arecollectively holding their breath for the outcome of the audition

season for prestigious summer dance programs. Intensive summerdance programs lasting from one to eight weeks have become increasing-ly competitive and an important component of a dancers’ training.

Preparations for the auditions started early in January at the MWPAIDance Building with an “Arabesque Workshop”—the required classicalpose by which all dancers are measured. The photograph in arabesque isoften the first introduction to a dancer’s training and physique; within thisone pose, a trained eye can gauge a dancer’s proportions, flexibility andcontrol. Of course, it’s the audition itself that ultimately determines theoutcome. But when the competition is close, it’s often the photographthat helps reinforce the decision to accept a student.

Technology played a huge roll in the workshop. Dancers met in smallgroups with Nancy Long, MWPAI Professor of Dance, who took pho-tographs of the students for immediate review. Dancers learned from cri-tiques of their peers and the photographs. By the end of the week 17

dancers were ready to apply and audition to the program of their choice.By mid-February there were celebrations and consolations. Like college,dancers are encouraged to apply to a reach school, a challenge schooland a safe school.

MWPAI Dance Program is proud to announce that the following dancerswill be attending the schools of their choice:

Hannah Straney, Juilliard; Elizabeth Andrews, Alvin Ailey; Alex Waterbury,Chautauqua; Anna McEvoy-Melo,Ellison Ballet; Angela Mia Belmonte,Mary McEvoy-Melo, Chloe Ford, Allison Swider, Saratoga Summer DanceIntensive. Colleen Ashmore, Katherine Elacqua, Olivia Aceto, MarissaPiccola, Megan Raab, Juliana and Isabelle Fulop will all attend theAmerican Academy at Purchase College. Auditions for students pursuingmodern dance will be notified in March, they are: Hannah Hage, CassieBushey, and Maria Panuccio.
