  • A New Monumental Sculpture to Join LOVE in IMA Galleries Fletcher Benton Sculpture Will Permanently Go on View Next Month
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE. A new monumental sculpture to join LOVE in IMA Galleries Fletcher Benton sculpture will permanently go on view next month INDIANAPOLIS, Feb. 6, 2020—The Indianapolis Museum of Art at Newfields is pleased to announce the addition of a monumental abstract sculpture to its contemporary collection, Fletcher Benton’s (1931-2019) Folded Circle Dynamic Rhythms Red Phase III (1973). The monumental sculpture will be a permanent addition to the Pulliam Family Great Hall, framed by Robert Irwin’s Light and Space III (2008). Benton’s dynamic sculpture is constructed from two, red-painted aluminum half-circles placed perpendicularly to each other, with a polished stainless steel band around the edges. A vertical, kinetic element features colored acrylic panels that move back and forth, creating rhythmic, color changes. An abstract homage to the ancient Greek sculptor Polykleitos, the shape and scale of the work calls attention to the importance of spatial orientation and our understanding of form, which was a common theme of sculpture made in the 1960s. “Folded Circle Dynamic Rhythms Red Phase III is a major work that will make a striking addition to the atrium. This piece will strengthen the IMA’s rich holdings of late modernist sculpture and provide a thoughtful juxtaposition with other works in the contemporary collection,” said Dr. Michael Vetter, Assistant Curator of Contemporary Art at Newfields. “We are delighted to have this important irrevocable promised gift from Jon and Molly Ott and grateful to the Alliance of Newfields and Randy and Sheila Ott for their support of the work’s conservation.” Benton is best known for his mechanized sculptures made in the 1960s and early 1970s, which are all central works in the history of kinetic art.

  • 100 Acres: Virginia B. Fairbanks Art & Nature Park at Indianapolis
    ! Frieman, Lisa. “100 Acres: Virginia B. Fairbanks Art & Nature Park at Indianapolis Museum of Art,” Artdaily.org, June 22, 2010.! ! ! natural environment,” said Maxwell L. Anderson, The Melvin & Bren Simon Director and CEO of the IMA. “They have conceived their projects with great sensitivity to this particular site, while also engaging in broad global questions about the relationship among art, nature and culture. It is tremendously exciting that 100 Acres positions the IMA as a leader in how museums can champion both contemporary artists and the environment.” The Park is bordered by the White River and runs contiguous to the IMA’s 52-acre campus, more than half of which is composed of historic landscapes and gardens. Commissions for the Park will be ongoing, with additional artists’ projects announced annually. The evolving aesthetic landscape will be characterized by continual renewal just like the natural landscape. Formerly a gravel pit and construction area, the Park has transformed from a disturbed site into a lush and wild natural terrain. The IMA has engaged architect Marlon Blackwell and landscape architect Edward L. Blake to develop a LEED-certified visitors pavilion and related walking trails throughout the site that emphasize native plantings. “100 Acres offers a new model for sculpture parks in the 21st century,” said Lisa Freiman, Chair of the IMA’s Department of Contemporary Art and Director of 100 Acres: The Virginia B. Fairbanks Art & Nature Park. “Unlike most sculpture parks, which emphasize canonical artists and place their works permanently in a fixed environment, 100 Acres will feature ongoing, temporary commissions, often supporting artists who have not yet had the opportunity to work on a grand public scale.

  • Aging Work Force Prompts 'Wake-Up Call'
    Aging work force prompts ‘wake-up call’ Expert to advise local employers on retaining skilled older workers Free lunch and conversation with Helen Dennis, specialist on aging and employment 11:30 a.m. to 1:15 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 26 Embassy Suites, 110 W. Washington St. As baby boomers reach retirement age, the decline in America‟s skilled work force poses an urgent challenge for employers. And as life expectancies increase, many employees want or need to continue working beyond the standard retirement age. Both sides can benefit if employers recognize the value of recruiting and retaining older workers, said Helen Dennis, a nationally known expert on aging, employment and retirement. “This is a wake-up call to business, to acknowledge the aging workforce and what they need to do to remain competitive,” said Dennis, a California-based corporate consultant and university lecturer. “The population is aging. We have fewer people coming through the pipeline. How do you get the best people?” Dennis will make her case to central Indiana employers on Jan. 26, at an event sponsored by the University of Indianapolis‟ Center for Aging and Community. The free luncheon talk is scheduled 11:30 a.m. to 1:15 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 26, in the Consulate Room of Embassy Suites, 110 W. Washington St. The event is free, but reservations are required. Contact Lisa Battiato at (317) 791-5936 or [email protected]. Promoting the importance of meaningful work for older adults is one of the core missions of the Center for Aging and Community, said Associate Director Ellen Miller.
