Prices range from $1.25 to $2.25, and the machine takes cash, credit card or ApplePay. Come brew a cup and taste it for yourself — you won’t be disappointed!

November 13 – December 11, 2015

The Wilson Art Gallery will host “Pieces of Me: Heart to Hand”, an exhibit of limited edition archival pigment prints of mixed media collages by Robert Gullie.

On Friday, November 13, from 4 to 6 p.m., there will be an opening reception for the exhibit, which will be on display at the Wilson Art Gallery from November 13 to December 11 during regular library hours. The reception and exhibit are free and open to the public.

Mr. Gullie will also give a guest lecture about his work on Wednesday, November 11 at 7:00 pm in the Reilley Room (4th floor of Reilly Hall). Call the Department of Visual and Performing Arts box office (315) 445-4200 for more information.

Robert Gullie is a photographer, mixed media collagist and printmaker. After years of creating hand tinted photographic prints of collected objects, Gullie has moved to mixed media collage filled with electrified colors and surreal imagery. His exhibit will be archival pigment prints of his collages, enlarged from hi-resolution images for a more dramatic impact.

Gullie’s works are found in numerous collections including The Kinsey Institute, the Albany Medical College and the Francis Kinnear Museum in Lake Luzerne.
