Farms of Madison County

 
 

All over Upstate we are losing our agricultural heritage, and the structures that are part of it – especially barns.  There is a remarkable array of barns in our Central New York region.  We have everything from English barns with their amazing joinery to long hopsbarns to a coble stone barn a little west of our area.  Although this show is about fine paintings, it is also a way of documenting a type of vernacular architecture that is disappearing before our eyes.  “My personal hope is that over time this show will develop over time, artists will capture more of the farms of Madison County and eventually we will publish a book with documenting our rich history of Madison County”  -  Jennifer Schutzendorf, The Gallery of CNY    Artists Included in this Show: George Van Hook, Mary Padgett, Diane Menzies, Drayton Jones, Chris Baker, Deborah Dougherty Wester, Nick Perkins, Carlton Manzano, Margaret Brenner, Jennifer Schutzendorf, Barbara Nuss, Richard Henry
