Founded
in 1967, Dowd Gallery is the university art gallery of
the State University of New York College at Cortland. The Gallerys mission statement is: Dowd Gallery at SUNY Cortland is committed to collecting, preserving, displaying and interpreting contemporary and historic art for the benefit of the central New York region including the University community. As an educational institution, the Gallery serves the general public and SUNY Cortland students and faculty/staff with a variety of programs that reflect the diversity of its audiences.
The
Gallery augments the classroom instruction of
the Art and Art History Department by providing contemporary
and historical exhibitions that allow students to build a greater
awareness of processes and art history in an interactive
setting.
The
Gallery also serves the college as a whole, developing exhibitions
with direct interdisciplinary connections as well as those designed
to promote general interest. The Gallery houses and manages the Colleges Permanent
Collection of five hundred two and
three-dimensional art works, including paintings, prints, and sculpture.
Lastly,
Dowd Fine Arts Gallery serves the greater Cortland community by
providing diverse and relevant exhibitions. Public programming accompanies
all exhibitions in order to deepen the understanding of specific
subject matter as well as increase appreciation of art and its importance
in everyday life as a means of communication. Programming includes,
but is not limited to, gallery talks, lectures, panel discussions,
workshops, demonstrations, sandwich seminars, films, and guided
tours. Didactic labels, catalogues, and brochures also aid the educational
mission of the Gallery. |
