Through April 16 — “Home Alone 3: On Pause

An Online Exhibition of Video Works by Four Artists

The work of artists Janaye Brown, Matt Frieburghaus, Megan Suttles and Mandy Cano Villalobos will be featured in “Home Alone 3: On Pause,” the third virtual exhibition to be presented by The Teaching Gallery at Hudson Valley Community College as pandemic safety protocols keep the on-campus gallery closed.

The first of four live-streamed talks with the participating artists is scheduled for 9 a.m. Tuesday, Feb. 16. Janaye Brown will talk about her work and career from Shanghai, China, where she currently lives.

The videos of Janaye Brown invite the viewer to observe and experience the calm stillness of waiting while mundane actions – a boat passing in the distance, a man doing tai chi – unfold. Brown has an MFA in Studio Art from the University of Texas at Austin and a BA in Cinematic Arts and Technology from California State University Monterey Bay. She currently lives in Shanghai, China.

The remaining artitst talks are:
Wednesday, March 3 at 2 p.m. – Matt Frieburghaus
Thursday, March 18 at 10:30 a.m. – Mandy Cano Villalobos
Thursday, April 8 at 2:30 p.m. – Megan Suttles
The talks will be free to the public with links available at www.hvcc.edu/teachinggallery.

Editor’s note: Janaye Brown’s talk will be recorded for later viewing; access details will be announced when available. It was decided not to postpone the event due to the weather-related delayed opening of the college on Feb. 16.
