Future Exhibitions
Deborah Stewart, Propagation and Endurance
June 26 – August 1, 2026
Opening Reception: Friday, June 26, 2026, 5:00–8:00 pm
Part of M&T Fourth Friday
Buffalo ceramicist Deborah Stewart creates sculptural works that explore the interconnections between nature, movement, and form. Her lifelong engagement with hiking, camping, and gardening informs a deep physical and sensory relationship to the natural world, while her background as a modern dancer shapes her understanding of movement, energy, and breath. These influences converge in her ceramic practice, where she approaches clay as both a responsive partner and an expressive medium. Deborah Stewart is a sculptor primarily working in clay. Her main interests are the experience of nature and movement, and their transformation into clay forms. As a sculptor who has in the past also been a studio potter, a biologist, a modern dancer and choreographer, she interweaves sensibilities from each of these areas into her work. She has a BFA in Ceramics and an MFA in Visual Art/ Sculpture. Her work has been exhibited locally and nationally and is in public and private collections.
Bethany Krull, Home
August 28 – November 6, 2026
Opening Reception: Friday, August 28, 2026, 5:00–8:00 pm
Part of M&T Fourth Friday
Bethany Krull will present Home, an installation of porcelain and mixed-media works exploring the complex, often contradictory relationships between humans, animals, and the natural world. Bethany Krull is a Buffalo, New York-based artist working in clay (primarily porcelain) for over twenty-five years. Her practice is expansive and has led to explorations in many other materials that make their way into the work, which is rooted in love of nature, formal aesthetics, and the fears and desires surrounding our species’ impact on the environment and other creatures. She teaches in both community and academic settings, maintains an active studio, and exhibits both nationally and internationally.
Robert Booth, Presence
August 28 – November 6, 2026
Opening Reception: Friday, August 28, 2026, 5:00–8:00 pm
Part of M&T Fourth Friday
Robert Booth will present Presence, an installation of altered functional objects—such as pencils, houses, and envelopes—that, once removed from their practical use, gain symbolic significance. Booth invites viewers to reflect on these familiar forms, their physical presence, and the ephemeral nature of humanness. Robert Booth is a Western New York sculptor and educator. He received his BFA in sculpture from the Massachusetts College of Art in 1976 and his MFA from Syracuse University in 1978. He has presented his work in more than 100 solo and group exhibitions over the past thirty years, including one-man shows at the Burchfield Penney in 1995 and 2015. A Distinguished Teaching Professor at the State University of New York, Fredonia, he has been in charge of the sculpture curriculum there since 1978. Booth has served on the Board of Directors for the Mid-America College Art Association and is a former president of the SUNY Council of Art Department Chairs.
