May | August 2021 IMPRESSIONS A MEMBER MAGAZINE FROM THE DIRECTOR

As our community emerges from the pandemic this summer, we are proud to serve as ’s place for beauty, belonging, fun, and discovery across a reimagined outdoor museum experience, which we will debut with a public celebration this fall. As we continue to honor our past and plant roots for the future, we invite you to explore the progress we’ve made on this first chapter of our multi-phase Landscape Master Plan. A special map inside this issue will be your guide to experience our four newest sculptures—and more—over the next few months. Please stay tuned for your official invitation to our landscape transformation celebration this fall.

This year we also expanded our world-renowned Collection with newly acquired works by trailblazing women artists Deborah Butterfield, Margarita Cabrera, Vanessa German, Letitia Huckaby, Jane Peterson, and Katie Pell. In addition, the McNay proudly added to our dynamic holdings the art of San Antonio artists César Martínez and Ed Saavedra and the late Southern California artist John Baldessari.

In the coming months, our community will enjoy Marion McNay’s legacy outdoors across an increasingly beautiful and accessible campus, and indoors through spellbinding exhibitions: Limitless! Five Women Reshape Contemporary Art; Is It Real? Staging Nature; Optical Dazzle: Op Art at the McNay; and, timed perfectly for summer, John Baldessari: California Dreaming. We would not be here, engaging a diverse community in the discovery and enjoyment of the visual arts, without her—or you.

6 JOHN BALDESSARI CALIFORNIA DREAMING On view through August 15, 2021 Lawson Print Gallery

The highly influential California artist and teacher, John Baldessari, was an obsessive collector of images from magazines, newspapers, and film stills. He recombined these images to create fascinating compositions whose narratives the artist wanted the viewer to interpret. Baldessari would often obscure, with circles of primary colors, certain key elements of the narrative, making interpretation more difficult. Meaning becomes secondary in Baldessari’s work. What matters most is how the artist could take disparate elements and turn them into art that is formally balanced and pleasing to the eye. His work, especially when presented in an exhibition like California Dreaming, is just fun to look at. Trying to puzzle out the meaning is icing on the cake.

The exhibition includes important loans from collections in San Antonio and Austin as well as the recently acquired French Horn Player (With Three Contexts-One Uncoded) of 1994. This is the first time this John Baldessari, Nine Feet (of Victim and Crowd) Arranged by Position in Scene from Violent Space Series, 1976. Photographs on board. Bequest of Robert H. Halff, 2005.2. work has been on public view at the McNay. © John Baldessari

John Baldessari: California Dreaming is organized for the McNay Art Museum by Lyle W. Williams, Curator of Prints and Drawings, Curator of Modern Art.

Lead funding is generously provided by the Arthur and Jane Stieren Fund for Exhibitions.

OPTICAL DAZZLE OP ART AT THE McNAY On view June 10–September 5, 2021 Charles Butt Paperworks Gallery

Of all forms of visual art, Op Art is the most physical, meaning that it causes our eyes to cross, twitch, and even ache. This is why this installation of Optical works from the Collection is such a wonderful complement to the McNay’s presentation of Limitless!, an exhibition which is also defined by sensory experiences. Among the highlights include a group of screenprints by the American Op artist Richard Anuszkiewicz. These small-scale, jewel-like works present complementary colors that seem to vibrate where they meet on the surface of the composition.

Optical Dazzle also includes by Julian Stanczak and Susie Rosmarin, as well as a rarely seen sculpture by the Venezuelan artist Jesús Rafael Soto.

Optical Dazzle: Op Art at the McNay is organized for the McNay Art Museum by Lyle W. Williams, Curator of Prints and Drawings, Curator of Modern Art.

Lead funding is generously provided by the Elizabeth Huth Coates Foundation of 1992.

7 NEW ADDITIONS TO THE PERMANENT COLLECTION

2020 brought many important acquisitions to the McNay by a variety of regionally and nationally-renowned artists. Beast, by San Antonio-based Ed Saavedra, depicts a San Antonio Police Department squad car with a fierce grill of jagged teeth, a prescient image rooted in the artist’s own experiences with the police.

Two pastels by celebrated San Antonio artist, César Martínez, are composite types drawn from high school yearbooks, obituaries, newspapers, and other sources. El Perico (The Parakeet) and La Coneja (The Rabbit), humorously titled for the physical characteristics of the figures, are at once familiar and anonymous.

Also sourced from a variety of media, John Baldessari’s French Horn Player (With Three Contexts-One Uncoded) is comprised of images that contribute to, but do not completely depict, a visual narrative conceived by the artist.

8 REMEMBERING SAN ANTONIO ARTIST KATIE PELL

Concluding her artist talk at the Columbia Museum of Art in South Carolina, Katie Pell stated, “I hope that you can get the feeling that I’m trying to impart, that we’re all really worthy of celebration.” Pell’s profound appreciation for people is evident when speaking to those who were close to her.

Pell’s daughter Bygoe Zubiate expanded on this sentiment, saying that her mother was, “Very fun, very direct, really funny, was inspired by the people around her and her community, and really loved everyone so much.”

Pell’s Charm and Weight, a new acquisition by the McNay, is a tribute to who and what shaped the artist. The sculpture recalls the charms Pell’s father brought home from business trips around the world. The artwork was inspired by the charms, each representing an aspect of Pell’s personality and nature. The artist stated, “When I build myself, I take parts from other cultures. I also take parts from my own culture, and this charm bracelet is sort of about myself.”

As seen by the outpouring of emotion from the San Antonio artist community upon her death, Pell is sorely missed, not only as a significant artist, but especially as a great person—quick to laugh, joke, tell the truth, and see the splendid beauty in people.

Katie Pell, Charm and Weight, 2008. Wood, with paint, installed on museum-fabricated hook. Museum purchase with funds from Rick Liberto, The Smothers Foundation, Lori and Joel Dunlap, Chris Hill and Lachlan Miles, and Guillermo Nicolas and Jim Foster, 2021.1.

9 HONORING WOMEN ARTISTS - TODAY AND EVERY DAY This spring, the McNay acquired five extraordinary artworks by Deborah Butterfield, Margarita Cabrera, Vanessa German, Letitia Huckaby, and Jane Peterson. These new acquisitions were purchased with support from a generous, anonymous gift of $500,000 for artwork in memory of celebrated Texas artist, Madeline O’Connor (1931-2002). O’Connor, whose career spanned 30 years, is represented in the McNay’s Collection through two artworks from the late 1990s: Woodstork and Cross/Plus. The artist’s lifelong love of art, nature, and animals was inspired by the rural setting of her childhood home in Refugio, Texas, as well as her strong religious roots.

Koinonia, the title of this installation by Letitia Huckaby, is a Greek word for Christian fellowship or communion. The girls whose silhouettes are depicted recall the killing of young girls in the bombing of the 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Alabama. The floral pattern behind the silhouettes references printed flour and sugar sacks from the Depression, which were upcycled to create garments for women and young girls.

Letitia Huckaby, Koinonia (detail), 2021. Pigment prints on fabric, with wooden embroidery hoops and wallpaper. Museum purchase with funds gifted anonymously in memory of Madeline O’Connor, 2021.4.

Deborah Butterfield created this sculpture following her father’s death in 1977 as a way of healing and overcoming grief. To create this artwork, Butterfield first constructed an armature of steel and chicken wire, adhered mud and grass to its surface, and then used sticks to further delineate its form. The horse and the materials it is made from are intended to convey the fragility of life and the environment.

Guided by her intuition, self-taught artist Vanessa German intersperses figurines and mirrors with artificial flowers, fruits, snakes, and birds. In the center is a figure that alludes to stereotypical iconography of black women, figures which German reclaims as symbols of power. This altarpiece was created during the COVID-19 pandemic and reflects on renewal and rebirth.

11 On February 26, due to COVID-19, the McNay held its first virtual gala. Sponsors had the opportunity to visit with 19 San Antonio-based artists via Zoom, and learn more about what they are working on and about upcoming or recent shows. The evening segued to YouTube where viewers got a sneak peek of Limitless! Five Women Reshape Contemporary Art and learned how the Museum has segued from in-person field trips, tours, etc. to a more virtual experience. Many thanks to Gala Chair Chris Cheever and his committee, along with Lead Sponsor, Valero, for their continued support.

SAN ANTONIO’S PLACE OF BELONGING

The McNay’s new You Belong Here campaign was created to expand access to transformational art experiences at the Museum, and emphasize that the McNay is a place of belonging for everyone. This campaign aims to address underserved communities throughout San Antonio, and signifies the Museum- wide commitment to equity and inclusion.

In celebration of the campaign kickoff during Military Appreciation Month, we’ve partnered with national nonprofit Operation Homefront to provide over 600 Bexar County military families with a free family membership to the McNay.

The Operation Homefront mission is to build strong, stable, and secure military families so they can thrive—not simply struggle to get by—in the communities they have worked so hard to protect. You can become a part of this positive impact by becoming a McNay Member or giving a gift to the McNay Excellence Fund this summer. Every membership and gift made to the Fund directly supports the McNay’s vision of being a place of belonging, inspiration, and hope.
