SUArt Galleries Announces Acquisition of Major Work by Contemporary Artist Carrie Mae Weems

The Syracuse University Art Galleries has announced its acquisition of several important works by internationally acclaimed artist Carrie Mae Weems.  These works, “People of a Darker Hue” (2016), “All the Boys (Blocked 1)” and “All the Boys (Blocked 2)” (2016), were made possible through the generosity of the Charina Endowment Fund, Richard Menschel ’55 and the artist. Menschel, along with his brother Robert ‘51, H’91, assisted with the 2004 acquisition of Sol Lewitt’s “Six Curved Walls” in honor of former Syracuse University Chancellor Nancy Cantor.  The work is installed as a part of the Art on Campus Program, on the hillside of Crouse College.
