Margie Hughto is a professor of ceramics at Syracuse University's College of Visual and Performing Arts. Her work has been included in numerous exhibitions since the 1970s, and she has installed permanent public artworks across the country, including a monumental ceramic painting located in a subway stop in Buffalo, New York, and Trade, Treasure, and Travel, a series of ceramic tile murals for the New York City Metropolitan Transit Authority (MTA), which were installed in 1998 two levels beneath the World Trade Center at the Cortlandt Street subway station. The tiles miraculously survived the 9/11 terrorist attacks and were re-installed in September 2011. A site-specific public work by Hughto will also be featured in Syracuse’s new Public Transportation Common Center, set to open in 2012. She recently presented her first site-specific museum installation, A Fired Landscape, at Syracuse’s Everson Museum of Art. The piece spanned 50 feet of gallery wall space (pictured, detail).
