About the Kresge and Pascal Galleries

The Kresge Foundation Gallery and the Andre Z. Pascal Gallery are in the Angelica and Russ Berrie Center for Performing and Visual Arts.

Renowned artists shown in the gallery include Henry Darger, Felix Gonzalez-Torres, Lady Pink, Cindy Sherman, Kehinde Wiley, Yoko Ono, Luis Cruz Azaceta, Whitfield Lovell, Alighiero Boetti, Paul Cadmus, Trevor Paglen, Loretta Lux, Chris Verene, Ceal Floyer, Hector Hyppolite, Mona Hatoum, Robert Rauschenberg, Ming Fay, Ant Farm, Mel Edwards, Nalini Malani, Kara Walker, Sophie Calle, Sally Mann, Peter Schumann, Liza Lou, Allora & Calzadilla, Radcliffe Bailey, Catherine Opie, Cathy de Monchaux, Howard Finster, Duane Michaels, Sherrie Levine, Tony Oursler, Nancy Spero, Nairy Baghramian, Andy Warhol, David Wajnarowicz, Lalla Essaydi, Michael Snow, Lynda Benglis, Jimmie Durham, Louise Bourgeois, and聽 Wangechi Mutu.

Angelica and Russ Berrie provided the lead gift in a campaign that raised funds from corporations and individuals, College employees and alumni, state and federal government, and private foundations. Toward the end of the campaign a challenge grant of $475,000 from the Kresge Foundation assisted the College in raising the balance required to complete the project. The Pascal Gallery was funded by Gregory Z. Bukstein, a beloved and generous benefactor of the College, in memory of his twin brother. Their book, Survival: The Story of Two Brothers, recounts the story of the Bukstein brothers’ early childhood in Poland, exile to Siberia, survival during the Holocaust, life as refugees and pioneers in the then newly-created state of Israel and their eventual emigration to the United States.

A haunting and original exhibition about the Holocaust by Prague artists Gabriela Bulisova and Mark Isaac.

Co-sponsored and co-produced by the Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies at 69色情视频, with additional sponsorship by the Sara & Sam Schoffer Holocaust Resource Center at Stockton University and the Stockton University Art Gallery.

The Landscape of our Memory is a long-term聽artistic project that addresses the 鈥渄ispersed Holocaust鈥 or 鈥淗olocaust by Bullets鈥 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聽to, in the words of the late Austrian historian Martin Pollack, “restore the names, faces and stories” of those tragically lost.聽聽Initial work was聽created 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聽climate crisis.

Ramapo Curatorial Prize exhibition, curated by Zuhra Amini featuring artists who work with fraught histories.聽

Fraction/Refraction 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.聽 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鈥檚 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.聽 In a time when images are easily distrusted, the artists in this exhibition are concerned with the vulnerability of images.聽 Fraction, Refraction 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.

The Ramapo Curatorial Prize is awarded each year to a second-year graduate student at Bard College鈥檚 Center for Curatorial Studies.
