Art Exhibits

At UPL, we believe that displaying art enhances the library experience for our patrons, staff, and volunteers. When we see art in our community spaces, we’re inspired to engage with it and make art of our own. We seek to exhibit the work of diverse voices that reflect the communities in which we live.

Lindsey Glover | The Long View

September - October 2026

About the Art

The collection of photographs on display at the Ulysses Philomathic Library is centered around the natural landscape. Lindsey Glover aims to capture unique moments of light and atmosphere that reveal something new to her about the land. She is interested in landscapes that blur the line between natural and alternative environments and that speak to human resilience, displacement, and adaptation. Many of her photographs focus on trees or groupings of trees and reflect human desires to organize the landscape and nature’s response in gently pushing back. Her process evolves out of momentary observations, many of which occur while driving through rural landscapes or walking in nature. At times, this requires she return to the site when conditions are optimal, but often the final photograph is a mere snapshot of a transitory moment. By human standards, trees don’t move or undergo change rapidly, yet her experience has revealed that timing – regarding season, weather and light – is instrumental in a photograph’s power and eloquence. 

About the Artist

Lindsey Glover is a digital media artist who has worked in art and technology for over twenty years. Her multi-media works include photography, printmaking, video, and installation, though her current practice is more photography-based.

As a graduate student at Cornell, she received the inaugural Margaret Bourke-White Photography Portfolio Prize, a juried award for a photographic portfolio, and the John Hartell Graduate Award, awarded for excellence in studio practice.

Lindsey received her BFA from the New York College of Ceramics at Alfred University, School of Art and Design (2005) where her interest in digital art and technology began.

She has been awarded a Saltonstall Foundation fellowship, an Experimental Projects Residency at the Institute of Electronics at Alfred University, and the Ucross Foundation residency in Wyoming. She has shown her works on paper and projection installations in Philadelphia, Providence, R.I., Portland, Ore., Jackson Hole, Wyo., and internationally in Germany.

Lindsey has ten years of experience managing a fine art digital printing lab within the College of AAP at Cornell University. She has also held visiting teaching positions in visual art through the School of Continuing Education at Cornell University and as a lecturer at Wells College in Aurora, NY.

In 2023, Lindsey was a visiting curator at the Trumansburg Conservatory of Fine Arts (Trumansburg, NY) in which she organized a photographic and sculptural exhibition titled Farm + Auto that included the work of nine artists and selected artifacts.

Lindsey currently serves on the Board of Directors for the Constance Saltonstall Foundation for the Arts (Ithaca, NY).

Her home and studio are located right here in Trumansburg, NY, where she lives with her husband (the musician Louiston), their son, and their Shetland Sheepdog.
