Syracuse Artist Paul Pearce creates art as therapy for dealing with the trauma he suffered as an officer serving in Vietnam. ” I am haunted by what I did and what I witnessed,” he said.
Schweinfurth Art Center is hosting a retrospective of work by Syracuse artist Paul Pearce through Oct. 11, 2025. The title of the exhibition, “i solemnly swear,” is a reference to the oath that he took when he was drafted into the U.S. Army in 1967. “The military oath of enlistment or oath of office should not be taken lightly,” he says. “You will be bound by it for the next 4-6 years at a minimum.”Schweinfurth Art Center
