An exhibition celebrating the career of Robert Indiana (b. 1928), will debut at the Munson-Williams-Proctor Arts In-stitute Museum of Art October 19.

Robert Indiana from A to Z: The Alphabet and the Icons spans Indi-ana’s artistic career and features more than 75 works in all mediaincluding his icons LOVE, HOPE, and EAT. The exhibition is some-thing of a homecoming for the artist, who, in 1947, took eveningclasses at Munson-Williams-Proctor Institute while he was stationedin Rome, NY, serving in the United States Air Force.

Robert Indiana was born in New Castle, Indiana, in 1928, asRobert Clark. He moved to New York City in the 1950s and by theearly 1960s had developed a personal artistic style of colorful, geo-metric form that was inspired by popular culture—stencils andurban signs in particular. In 1965, when the Museum of ModernArt, in New York City, invited Indiana to design a holiday card, hecreated the iconic LOVE image, a timely message of good will in anera wracked by violence. Examples of this powerful hallmark of PopArt will be included in The Alphabet and the Icons, along with hislatest series, The Alphabet, which is the culmination of the 85-year-old artist’s journey using text as image. The exhibition, on viewthrough January 5, 2014, is accompanied by a fully illustrated catalog.

Utica Native Celebrates MWPAITraditions at Art Alive

Born and raised in Utica, John Pladocostante moved to Plano, Texas, aboutsix years ago to begin a career teaching culinary arts.

He moved across the country, but he took two strong Utica traditions withhim—art and food. While John misses MWPAI’s renowned collection, he isnever too far from the Utica culinary traditions that influenced him. Johnoperates Femia Italian Foods (https://squareup.com/market/femia-italian-foods), which specializes in hand-made Italian food and desserts.

On his frequent trips home, John often stops by the Museum of Art to seenew exhibitions and visit his favorite paintings. While here last year, Johnenjoyed the Art Alive family day so much that this year he has donatedsome of his gourmet cookies as part of the Columbus Day Art Alive fun.

Come and taste John’s creations and visit some of your old friends hang-ing on the walls in the Museum of Art.

Spectacular Comedic Juggling Featuredin a Special For Kids and Families EventThe 4D Comedy Juggling antics of Mark Nizer will be the highlight of

a special Art Alive Columbus Day edition of the For Kids and Fami-lies series 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. Monday, October 14 in the Mu-

seum of Art Auditorium.

With his original comedy, world-class juggling, movement, music andtechnology, Nizer has changed the way people view the world. The impos-sible is possible and the improbable is probable, whether Mark is jug-gling laser beams at 1000 rpms, or five ping pong balls being thrown 20feet in the air using only his mouth; or even juggling a burning propanetank, a running electric carving knife and a 16-pound bowling ball.

Since winning the International Juggling Championship Nizer has takenhis one-man show to thousands of venues around the world, includingtwo gala performances at the world famous Just for Laughs Comedy Fes-tival, The Kennedy Center and Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts. Hisinvention of new juggling tricks and juggling technologies, combined withhis rapier wit, has distinguished him as “nothing less than brilliant.”

Admission to this event is $8 for MWPAI Members and $10 for Generaladmission. Flexible subscriptions are also available. Tickets may be pur-chased in advance or one hour prior to the performance time at theMWPAI Performing Arts Ticket Office, 797-0055 or 800-754-0797.
