Thank you to the Richmond Art Museum for the honor and the privilege of inviting me to judge this year’s annual exhibition. As the chair of the annual Indiana Heritage Arts exhibition, I understand the value and importance that the judge brings to the task.

I did my best to evaluate objectively each work entered. I looked for technical accomplishment, but also I looked for a “voice.” That is, I believe a work should communicate to the viewer what the artist’s goals, ideas, and intents were in each piece. All of the technical skill in the world can’t supersede what for me makes art powerful: the communication of each artist’s unique humanity.

To that end, the artworks to which I awarded prizes spoke powerfully to me in their own unique voice and had strong points of view. Whether a complex work with multiple figures or a “simple” scene of sunlight illuminating landscape, each awarded work spoke to me individually, uniquely, and powerfully in a memo- rable way. I was impressed and moved by so many works that were all strong in content, emotion, and technical accomplishment. Jim Ross Eckert & Roos Working together to make a brighter future.

The community that plays together, stays together. That’s why we join you in supporting organizations and events, creating awe-inspiring memories that make us all happy to call this our hometown.

U.S. Bank is proud to support the Richmond Art Museum.

2019-2020 Annual Report

As we look back at the 2019-2020 fiscal year, it will be one of the most memorable in our history. As we find ourselves navigating the ‘new norm’, RAM is continuing to fulfill our mission to serve children, adults, and artists through active creative programming. RAM and the community it serves has an enduring history of being arts- focused. museums as well as rare ephemera, letters and photographs RAM started the year by offering two exceptional that had been preserved by the family and never before and ambitious exhibitions. The first exhibition featured been seen by the public. one of Indiana’s most recognized landscape painters, Dan RAM continued our rich commitment to regional and Woodson. With over 100 paintings represented in the local artists through the Annual Exhibition by Richmond exhibition, Into the Woods: Hoosier Landscapes by Dan and Area Artists which featured 98 advanced artists and 35 Woodson, broke records with attendance and art sales. amateur artists as well as works for sale by local artists at The second exhibition, Robert Indiana: The Richmond the Art for the Holidays event. In February, RAM presented Connection, was based on a previously unknown personal a duo show, pairing the 3D sculptures of artist and IU East relationship that Robert Indiana had with a local Richmond professor Carrie Longley with the paintings of Richmond family that spanned decades, since his birth. The exhibition artist Joseph T. Swanson. featured remarkable selections of his work from regional It was in March that the spread of Covid-19 began to impact our programming and led to the closing of the museum for the remainder of the fiscal year. RAM was able to almost fully complete our Art is…Mexico, multi-cultural, hands-on program which typically serves nearly 2,000 students. With school closings in March, the annual All Wayne County High School Art Exhibition was canceled, but we were able to move forward with a virtual Phantoscope High School Film Festival. When the pandemic ends- and it will- cities, like Richmond, that preserve their quality of life and cultural organizations, will rebuild their economies and civic pride. We wish to thank the nearly 6,500 RAM members, local businesses and regional foundations that help to engage, enlighten and enhance our community through art education, creation and observation.

Educational programming, including Art Is…, the Phantoscope High School Film Festival, and the All Wayne County High School Art Exhibition, enriches the lives of more than 7,000 students annually. Art nurtures our spirit and calms the mind, and engaging in either art appreciation or creation is now, and forever will be, something that is deeply connected to our humanity, but perhaps now more importantly than ever, helps us see the humanity in others. Here is to the path forward and the art that will inspire us into the future. Lance Crow Education Director

Phantoscope Like so much else at RAM and beyond, the Phantoscope High School Film Festival was significantly affected by the novel coronavirus and resulting stay-at-home order. The 13th Annual Phantoscope was entirely virtual this year, and kicked off with a Facebook Live event with scheduled guest speaker Alex Bohs. While at Buchanan High School in Lafayette, IN, Alex entered a film into the very first Phantoscope competition, and won the second one with his film, “First Love.” Alex is now living in LA and in the early stages of his film career. While we were looking forward to seeing Alex in person back in his home state, we understood the need to put public safety first and made the difficult decision to forgo an in-person screening. The year’s lineup of selected films (including Best Film winner “Diamond Game” by Nolan Hieu Trifunovic) can be viewed at phantoscope.org. All Wayne County High School Art Exhibition The 14th Annual All Wayne County High School Art Exhibition was cancelled due to COVID. RAM looks forward to this important show which showcases the talent of art students in our six Wayne County high schools. Young Artist Camps For three weeks every summer, RAM Young Artist Camps Art Is…Mexico unleash the creativity of local students, age 5 through 8th graders. Art Is…Mexico was a great program, cut a few weeks Led by the effervescent, brilliant, Sontina Reid, campers explore a different theme each week and work with many different types short by COVID!

Volunteers are of vital importance to Art Is…and we are grateful to those who give their time to support our students. Thank you to the Quigg Fund for endowing Art Is… as well as the continuing support from 3Rivers Federal Credit Union. Secret Garden Tour Secret Garden Tour continues to be a hugely popular summer event that has raised over $300,000 for RAM in its history! The chance to experience the best local landscaping is irresistible, and participants always showcase their graciousness and hospitality to guests in addition to their gardens.
