    GEORGIA O'KEEFFE: COLOR & CONSERVATION Through December 31, 2006 The Memorial Art Gallery is the only northeast venue--and the last stop--for an extraordinary exhibition of the work of Georgia O’Keeffe. It’s the first O’Keeffe exhibition ever in Rochester, where it also includes photographs of the artist on loan from George Eastman House International Museum of Photography and Film. It’s also the first exhibition ever to focus on O’Keeffe’s painstaking choice of color, her studio methods and her involvement in conservation issues. Don’t miss the opportunity to see 27 rarely-seen oil paintings and pastels--among them landscapes, flowers, still-lifes and abstractions—from all periods of O’Keeffe’s prodigious career.

    MY AMERICA: ART FROM THE JEWISH MUSEUM COLLECTION, 1900-1955 Through December 24, 2006 In the first decades of the 20th century, American Jewish artists enjoyed unprecedented freedoms, even as they faced harsh economic and political realities. Through paintings, prints, photographs and sculptures, this major traveling exhibition explores the reactions of a diverse group of artists during a period of social, political and intellectual upheaval. The 73 works are by such noted artists as Alfred Stieglitz, Ben Shahn, Raphael Soyer and Morris Louis. Some were born in the US, some came under the influence of European avant-garde influences while studying abroad, and still others were immigrants, particularly from Eastern Europe.

    CALLING EVERY MAN, WOMAN AND CHILD: AMERICAN WORLD WAR I POSTERS Through January 21, 2007 The United Stated government called upon the power of the poster to mobilize the country for entry into the Great War. Playing on cultural roles of gender and family and utilizing the power of symbols and personification, the posters of the First World War are striking works of art and propaganda. Dedicated to the memory of David Hochstein (1892-1918), violin prodigy after whom the Hochstein School was named; killed in the Battle of Argonne.

    ITALIAN BAROQUE ORGAN When the only full-size antique Italian organ in North America was installed at MAG in summer 2005, it was national news. A year later, the organ--on permanent loan from the Eastman School of Music--has become an integral part of Rochester’s musical life. Monthly showcase recitals, as well as student recitals every Sunday at 1 pm and 3 pm, show off the magnificent sound of the instrument. Surrounded by Baroque paintings and sculpture, it’s a feast for the eyes as well.
