SVA exhibition at L.I. Museum
Before the 20th century, the world depended on another source of power - the horse. The avenues of New York City and main streets of America were crowded with horsedrawn veh icles. Given this rich history, SVA students have borrowed from the past and have re-imagined today's world without oil. In response to today's energy-challenged world, SVA students, under the direction of Kevin O'Callaghan, chairman of the school's 3D Design Program, have taken horse-drawn vehicles and have reinvented them. Carriages and sleighs that were considered beyond restoration have been dramatically remodeled in a satirical manner in hopes of showing what we could learn from our past. On Feb. 10 at 2 p.m., museum visitors will have a chance to meet Kevin O'Callaghan and the SVA students when they present a special program on how they came up with ideas to create the whimsical, wacky vehicles in the exhibition. This program is free with regular museum admission.
The museum is at 1200 Route 25A in Stony Brook, For information about other exhibitions and programs, please call 631-751-0066.
