Plugged In: The Playlist of the Pandemic
Our exhibit is centered around the art of music because practically everyone can appreciate it during this age. In a time when music has never been more accessible, it is interesting to see what listeners gravitated towards during the difficult times of the pandemic. Furthermore, the music that was released within the past year is representative of the times we have been living in and everything that has had light shed on during the pandemic. We wanted to illustrate this and introduce people to new music through our exhibit. At the end of the viewing, viewers can leave with a new song to add to their library, along with exposure to a new artist they might not have been familiar with before.

Birds Eye View: Bird-Window Collisions in NY

Pablo Picasso: An Icon in the World of Art
Without a doubt Pablo Picasso was arguably the most important, recognizable, and influential artist of the 20th century. Over his lifetime there were many turning points in his career and events happening in his private life that really influenced his artworks. Picasso’s works were inspired by other artists before him, politics, society and most notably his muses. His vision led to the creation of some of the most important movements in modern art. His work spans over nine decades of his life with many of them going through several periods and changes in the artists as seen on each canvas.

Tranquility in the City that Never Sleeps
The curators behind Tranquility in the City that Never Sleeps hope to show students how calming certain parts of the city can really be through photographs of a variety of parks and a soundtrack of noises that anyone might hear upon stepping into one of these parks and away from the loud city streets.
Kissena Park’s Korean War Memorial
The Korean War is often referred to as “The Forgotten War”, but is this reference a disingenuous representation of historical events? In this project, I examine Kissena Park’s Korean War Memorial and how it can be further improved in order to pay homage to the soldiers from Queens who lost their lives during the war without ignoring the war from Korea’s perspective.
