You are cordially invited to the opening of �SSienna Visions: Paintings by Alonzo Adams, a special Gallery Space at Wagner exhibition brought to you by NYU's Robert F. Wagner Graduate School of Public Service in partnership with the Steinhardt School of Education, Culture, and Human Development.Internationally acclaimed artist Alonzo Adams presents us with an alluring and culturally rich collection of oil paintings referencing his African American heritage. Through masterfully executed figurative portraits and landscapes, the artist highlights fragments of the African American experience informed by his family history, his Harlem roots, Jazz, and contemporary urban life. The luscious sienna and earth tone palettes that permeate the canvases not only assist in achieving the desired racial specificity, but they are also instrumental in defining the contemplative and populist mood of the paintings.

Sienna Visions is cosponsored by the NYU Wagner Black Student Alliance (BSA).
