Exhibits
UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — Portrayed as big, bad and ravenous, the wolf in fairy tales is most often the villain, a beast who tricks and then devours both children and adults before meeting a violent end. A new Penn State University Libraries exhibition, “What Big Eyes You Have! Looking at the Wolf in Fairy Tales,” opening Tuesday, Jan. 16, in Penn State University Libraries’ Eberly Family Special Collections Library, takes a close look at historical depictions of the wolf in well-known and lesser-known fairy tales, drawing from several sources among Special Collections Library materials.
Highlights of the exhibition include early illustrated editions of fairy tales — especially those collected by Charles Perrault and the Grimm Brothers — as well as unusual and visually engaging pop-up, shaped and artists’ books. The variety of books on view, from “Little Red Riding Hood” and “The Three Little Pigs” to lesser-known titles, such as “The Wolf and the Seven Young Kids,” offer a trove of rich imagery for asking what the wolf symbolizes and what our complicated relationship with wolves — both real and imaginary — reveals about our own human nature.
The exhibition “What Big Eyes You Have! Looking at the Wolf in Fairy Tales” asks visitors to consider what the wolf symbolizes and what our complicated relationship with wolves — both real and imaginary — reveals about our own human nature.
“Wolves and their motivations can be interpreted in a myriad of ways depending on who is doing the looking,” Clara Drummond, Special Collections Library curator and exhibitions coordinator, said. “The wolves on view range in their appearance, from dog-like and wolf-like to human-like, and express various states of mind, from menacing to friendly. Looking closely at their appearance on the page adds to our understanding of the moral lessons of the tales.”
Visitors to the exhibition also will be able to view the award-winning 2012 short documentary “Wolf Mountain,” which tells the story of Tonya Littlewolf and the pack of rescued wolves she cares for. The film offers a more nuanced portrait of the wolf than one commonly presented in European fairy tales and provides insight into the plight of real wolves in the United States.
The 2018 Charles W. Mann Jr. Lecture in the Book Arts is scheduled for March 22 in Foster Auditorium, 103 Paterno Library, and will feature an invited speaker whose research relates to the exhibit. The Mann Lecture, named in honor of Charles W. Mann Jr., the first Dorothy Foehr Huck Chair for Special Collections in the University Libraries, is an annual event featuring scholars with academic research areas connected to the materials held in the Eberly Family Special Collections Library. It is supported by the Mary Louise Krumrine Endowment. Additional details about the 2018 Mann Lecture are forthcoming.
“What Big Eyes You Have! Looking at the Wolf in Fairy Tales” is scheduled for display through Sunday, May 13, in the Eberly Family Special Collections Library Exhibition Room, 104 Paterno Library, on Penn State’s University Park campus. For more information about the exhibition, contact Clara Drummond at cjd86@psu.edu.
UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — A visual arts exhibit titled “Home: Contemporary Indigenous Artists Responding,” will be on display through Aug. 31 in the Walter and Dori Goldstein Music and Media Center, second floor West Pattee Library, University Park campus.
The exhibit gathers the work of 12 Indigenous artists working in printmaking, who each adopt a unique perspective from which to consider the ideas of community, place and belonging.
Organized by Melanie Yazzie, professor of art at the University of Colorado at Boulder, this exhibition demonstrates an Indigenous relationship to home and homeland, enmeshed in a history of defense, sacrifice, resiliency and redefinition. The exhibition includes a print and an original essay by Assistant Professor of Art Kevin Slivka, who was instrumental in bringing this collection to Penn State.
An interactive iPad kiosk accompanies the exhibit, offering biographical information about each artist, as well as complementary supplemental material related to the collection.
Other contributing artists include Norman Akers, Neal Ambrose-Smith, Ivy Hali’imaile Andrade, Corwin Clairmont, Joe Feddersen, Alexander Swiftwater McCarty, Tony Ortega, Sue Pearson, Jaune Quick-to-See Smith, C. Maxx Stevens, Glory Tacheenie-Campoy and Melanie Yazzie.
For more information about the exhibit or inquiries about special accommodations, contact Mark Mattson at mam1196@psu.edu or 814-863-2480.
Visitors to the current “Depth of Field” exhibit, on display through Aug. 14 in the Diversity Studies Room at Pattee Library, can view an unfiltered look at war photography and assess its impact on audiences. Using Penn State Reads’ 2017-18 book, “It’s What I Do: A Photographer’s Life of Love and War” by Lynsey Addario, as a starting point, the exhibit seeks to highlight the intersections of the history of war in the Middle East with the history of war photography and how visual literacy plays a role in how we interpret and understand those intersections.
Throughout the exhibit, visitors will learn more about female war photographers and photography covering the Middle East over the past two decades, and explore the interplay between text and image. While conflict photography continues to bring attention to issues around the world, there has been a shift in the imagery from action shots to everyday life in recent war photography.
“‘Depth of Field’ creates space for viewers to become what [philosopher Jacques] Ranciere calls ‘the emancipated spectator,’” said Rachel White, University Libraries information services manager and co-curator of the exhibit. “The creator of the artwork presents material in such a way that the viewer has to literally pause in order to digest everything that is going on within the image. The viewer learns to ask questions and not blindly stare at a photograph.” White, with Hailley Fargo, student engagement librarian, worked together to co-curate the exhibition with organizational oversight by Christina Coyle, exhibit coordinator.
Addario’s memoir, as mirrored throughout the exhibition, interweaves themes of gender roles, photographic truths, and cultural and political ideologies, while exploring the many complicated facets of war. The viewer is encouraged to play an active role in the production, consumption and transformation of culture and to become the interpreter of what they see.
Part of the exhibit focuses on brief snapshots of Syria, Afghanistan and Iraq using library resources to tell these stories. Paired with these resources will be photography by visual arts faculty member Keith Shapiro, whose photographs document scenes of daily life he encountered during his travels to Syria in the 1990s.
The exhibit also sheds light on some of the female photographers that have made their mark on the profession. Finally, through iPad Pro kiosks, exhibit interactive elements — garnered from the University Libraries’ rich collection of multimedia resources — allow viewers to see how people, both foreign and native, are documenting events occurring in the Middle East today.
“Depth of Field” is open to viewing in the Diversity Studies Room, second floor central Pattee Library, during regular hours of operation. Persons with disabilities who anticipate needing accommodations or who have questions about physical access may contact Rachel White at rhw135@psu.edu or 814-865-5429.
Anne Kenyon, Jason Bloom
Anne Kenyon’s artwork features both pastel paintings and hand pulled
prints -- drypoints, monoprints and collagraphs. Some of the pastel
paintings are part of an ongoing series of Florida landscapes.The
prints represent a new artistic direction and are often enhanced with
pastels and watercolor.
Clay is the easiest way for Jason to combine his passions for nature,
science, and design into individual, functional pieces of art. He
strives to create pottery that will become a favorite piece to be
used, examined, held, and enjoyed. Cooking and entertaining are some
of his favorite pastimes, heavily influencing the pottery Jason
creates. He believes, however, that functionality should not detract
from a form’s beauty and design. Motivated by the setting of his home
and studio near the Allegheny Plateau, he integrates the flora and
fauna he encounters each day into his glaze colors and embellishments.
In the end, he makes what he likes – pottery that is useful, beautiful
and inspirational.

“I feel blessed to live in such a beautiful area, surrounded by mountains to explore, streams and rivers to fish, and an abundant source of inspiring landscape to paint. I hope to interpret my work, for others, that which moves me when I view the land.”Natural elements, such as the soothing sound of a waterfall, the smell of a field of freshly baled hay, or the feel of a rocky climb, trigger Jeanne McKinney’s desire to capture their spirit in a painted image. By working directly outdoors, she not only paints the landscape, but becomes a real part of the landscape thus allowing her to express a more authentic and honest interpretation. McKinney begins her artistic process by developing several studies followed by a gestural drawing in nupastel with a turpenoid wash. A variety of soft pastels are applied loosely over the under paintings working from the general to the specific. She often works with a limited palette of pastels to bring cohesiveness to a painting. Jeanne McKinney is a Penn State alumna and currently resides in the State College area. She is a member of several local and national professional artist groups and has studied painting workshops with numerous Juried Associate Members of the Pastel Society of America. McKinney has exhibited her paintings in juried national and regional exhibitions, and her work can be found locally at The State College Framing Company and Gallery, The Green Drake Gallery and Arts Center, and the Gallery Shop in Lemont, Pennsylvania.

There’s something fascinating about a group of friends having a conversation. The subtle flicks of fingers and matching rise and fall of voices, the undulation of the crowd. Lydia Walton draws those moments; the lounging, the talking, the tilt of a chair’s legs leaned too far away from the ground. She brings those people into her imagination,separates them from their flawed reality, and lets them spill onto the page, altered to fit a strange world of her design that features similarly altered busses, streets, buildings, and other everyday environments. Walton’s work seeks to explore pervasive themes in popular entertainment as well as the effect of popular media on social interaction. Lydia Walton is currently a senior at Penn State majoring in Painting and Drawing.

Forbidden to leave his country, Soleimanpour distilled the experience of an entire generation in a wild, utterly original play. “White Rabbit Red Rabbit” is a work about contemporary Iran and of Soleimanpour’s generation — a generation born amidst the hardship of the Iran-Iraq war; a generation of computer-literate, well-informed young people who have never known an Iran other than the Islamic Republic.
This theatrical experience hopes to answer unanswerable questions about relationships, community, international cultures and theatrical environments. A short talk back will occur after every performance.
This unique show features no rehearsals, no director and no set, and a different actor reads the script cold for the first time at each performance. Featuring Malena Ramirez, Timothy Lewis, Lauren Weber, Nalini Krishnankutty, Sam Richards, and Henry Ragan.
