in 1988, samuel pees made a substantial gift of over 250

original pieces of artwork to the syracuse university art

Collection, followed by another gift of additional artwork in

the mid-1990s. an alumnus of syracuse university, samuel

pees earned his master’s degree in geology in 1959. as a

professional consultant, pees was able to travel frequently to

south america, latin america, indonesia and the southeast. it

was during these travels that he actively collected his collection

of artwork, which includes work by well-known artists Tohny

Joesof and ricardo Carpani.

The exhibition is divided into two main geographic regions,

in the Far east the sprawling archipelago of indonesia

and its neighboring country Malaysia, and in the west, the

islands of grand Cayman, haiti, and grenada, and the south

american country of paraguay. like the artists and artwork

presented in Nyumba ya sanaa: works from the Maryknoll

Collection, many of the works presented here also share a

common interest in recording everyday life and activities

of the communities in which the artists lived, as well as the

utilization of similar media, including relief printmaking, oil

and acrylic paints.

The exhibition, A World Apart: Art From The Samuel Pees

Collection, is being displayed as part of the SUArt Galleries

exhibitions Nyumba ya Sanaa: Works from the Maryknoll
