The Paul W. Zuccaire Gallery, located on the first floor of the Staller Center, will present a solo exhibition by internationally renowned artist Nicole Cohen from July 18 through October 18. Featuring videos, collages and photographic work, the exhibition is a mid-career survey of Cohen’s intriguing exploration of perception and identity as viewed through interior spaces and architectural environments.
The Zuccaire Gallery is open every evening of the Stony Brook Film Festival, from July 18-27, and by appointment July 28-August 25. Regular gallery hours begin August 26 through October 18, Monday through Friday from 12 pm to 4 pm and evenings of Staller Center performances. Admission is free.
“Nicole Cohen: Super Vision” features captivating video and photography pieces in an immersive environment. Her photo and video works often overlay contemporary imagery with historical photographs from vintage magazine pages, domestic interiors, period rooms, historical paintings and iconic architectural spaces to comment on socially constructed space.
Work from major projects over the last 20 years include Contemporary Art Books & The New York Public Library, Time Lapse, five small video projections, a group of photographs from the Vintage Project series, several Vintage Collage works, a selection of intervention videos and a new installation piece.
