The Visual Arts Gallery at SUNY Adirondack
will host a new exhibit by Monica Haller entitled
Veterans Book Project, featured for the Fall 2015
semester running through Nov. 12.
The Veterans Book Project is an art
collaboration consisting of 50 books, each
written by artist Monica Haller and individuals
with first-hand experience of the current
American wars. Most of the subjects are
veterans, some are family members of soldiers
and others are Iraqi or Afghan civilian refugees.
The exhibition is also intended to serve as a
quiet space for contemplation and thoughtful
discussion about war and its impact on our lives.
Visitors to the exhibition are invited to sit and
read through the books and comment on their
own experiences or how war has impacted them.
The exhibit is on loan from the Weeks Gallery
at Jamestown Community College.
