Executive Director’s Annual Report 2015/2016

Indiana’s Bicentennial and the Art League’s Semicentennial! Your Art Museum focused this year on celebrating Indiana’s 200th birthday with artwork by Hoosier artists. We also celebrated the 50th anniversary of the founding of our Art League. To recognize fty years of service, the Art League created an endowment campaign with gifts totaling over $50,000, to help ensure a long future. State representatives Sheila Klinker and Randy Truitt and Senator Ron Alting invited Art League o cers to be recognized on the  oors of the House and Senate

Kendall Smith on February 9, and the Art Museum hosted two exhibitions in their honor.  anks to year round underwriting by Senator Ron Alting, our Indiana Bicentennial exhibitions included: A Bicentennial Legacy Exhibition-ArtSmart: Indiana; Indiana Now 2016: e Bicentennial, sponsored by the Henriott Group, Holder Law O ce and Edward Jones; and Indiana Artists Member Exhibition: e Bicentennial, sponsored by Westminster Village.

On October 1, the Lions and Tigers and BEARS oh my! public art project was wrapped up with an auction at Diamond Sponsor Bob Rohrman’s Toyota showroom. In total, $166,570 was raised with support by many donors, sponsors and volunteers led by Chair, Barb Reed.  e museum nances are solid, with a positive annual net income for several years. Looking toward the future, we were able to increase the rainy day reserve fund from $4,000 to $50,000.

 e Grace Foyer, Shook Gallery, Museum Shop and o ces were remodeled and LED lighting installed with grants from NCHS and Tipmont REMC. Special thanks to Carrie Crose, KJG Architecture, for donating her professional interior design services. And the South building entrance has a new roof and entry doors funded by a grant from the Community Foundation of Greater Lafayette.

Our principle annual fund raising event, the Heart of Art wine dinner and auction, held at the Lafayette Country Club, was sold out for the seventh consecutive year in a row and.  anks to the 209 attendees, a record $91,419 was raised in support of the Art Museum programs and an additional $4,500 was raised for the Art League’s endowment. Sponsors continued their support for the 7th year: 1st Source Bank-Platinum; IU Health-Gold; Stuart & Branigin-Gold; Purdy Concrete-Gold.

A large oil painting titled Black Friday, by Gerald Gri n, was purchased for our permanent collection from his exhibition Ambiguous Re ections of Race and Identity: A Question of Color.  e painting has been installed at the Purdue University Black Cultural Center on a long-term loan.

 e 2nd Century Club has grown to 103 members! Members support the museum with an annual gift of $1,000 or more. In June, Sharon  eobald led an exclusive club tour to the Indiana State Museum to experience their bicentennial exhibitions, followed by a reception by Rhonda Long-Sharp at her gallery in the Conrad Hotel.  is year nearly half of our membership income came from this elite group of patrons and we are grateful for their generosity.

Finally, through an important initiative led by Foundation Board President, David Bathe, both the foundation and governing boards voted to fund the creation of a master plan to nd a new location for the Art Museum. Rob Galbraith, President of Keystone Architecture has volunteered his services to create the plan.

President’s Annual Report 2015/16

 is has been such an exciting year for the museum! Our celebration of Indiana’s Bicentennial is in full swing, beginning with the Tippecanoe County Kicko held here last December.  e museum has showcased Indiana art throughout the year and we are looking forward to our collaboration with the LSO in November to present a concert featuring the music of set against a backdrop of Indiana Art drawn from the ArtSmart: Indiana database and designed by Petronio Bendito.

Meg Ellis ArtSmart: Indiana has been at the forefront of the museum’s Bicentennial activities with the donation of iPads featuring ArtSmart games to four local libraries, displays at both the West Lafayette Public Library and the Tippecanoe County Public Library as well as a workshop at  e Children’s Museum. During their 50th Anniversary year, the Art League was honored by the Indiana Statehouse, and exceeded their campaign to raise $50,000 for an endowment.  e 2nd Century Club continues to thrive with over 100 current members.  is dedicated group provides a foundation of nancial support that is critical to our museum’s ability to move into the future with con dence. In June, 2nd Club members enjoyed a private tour of the Indiana State Museum and Rhonda Long Sharpe’s gallery. While at the gallery we met artist Jason Meyers and the Collections Committee purchased one of his works!  ank you once again to Sharon  eobald, her sta , and the Development Committee for organizing this outstanding trip. With the help of the Finance Committee, the Board has increased our Rainy Day Fund from $4,000 to $50,000 this year. Our success with fundraising, coupled with prudent spending has put the museum on rm nancial footing. As we began to implement the Strategic Plan this year, it became evident that our greatest challenge was not having adequate space to house our ever-expanding permanent collection. We have sought creative solutions, such as loaning our recent Black Friday purchase to the Black Culture Center, but it has become increasingly apparent that we need a new facility in order to provide the storage space we need, as well as expanded gallery space. In January the Foundation and Museum Boards unanimously approved a motion to pursue the development of a Master Plan and Feasibility Study to build a new museum facility. Our vision for a new facility has already garnered widespread support from both Mayors and will undoubtedly be the focus of our e orts as we move forward. I want to personally thank the many volunteers, Board members, and donors who have made it such a pleasure to serve and who have made my job so easy this year. I also owe a debt of gratitude the museum sta who consistently go above and beyond my expectations in ensuring that this museum continues to be a source of pride for the entire community.

Permanent Collection Annual Report JULY 1, 2015 - JUNE 30, 2016

 is year has shown the generosity of those who support the Art Museum and it’s mission to collect and preserve artwork.  ere were 132 accessions in the past scal year and only seven of those were from museum purchases.  e remaining 125 works were gifts from magnanimous patrons.

Rudy Pozzatti and his wife Doti donated 118 of his works selected from key points in his artistic career in memory of their close friend Richard K. Curtis. With these pieces, the museum now has 163 works by Rudy Pozzatti spanning from 1956 – 2015 and give a unique look into the life’s work of one of the most highly esteemed printmakers.  e collections committee created a named collection in honor of their good will entitled the Rudy and Doti Pozzatti Collection.

Another wonderful gift was the ceramic vase, Fall Mill Scene, by Doris Richeson donated by Vicki DuVall, Marla Richeson, & Ryan DuVall. Doris was a long time artist, art educator, and founding member of the Porcelain Art Club.

 e Art Museum was also presented with three photographs created by the late Colleen Sue “Suzie” Coles entitled Nestled, Butternut Red, and Bloodshot. Coles was an active member of the Indiana arts community as well as a past board member and instructor at the Art Museum.  ese photographs were a gift of the Suzie Coles Estate.

During the museum’s exhibition of Gerald Gri n’s oil paintings the collections committee voted to purchase Black Friday.  is large oil on wood is currently on extended loan to the Purdue Black Cultural Center. Also purchased from their respective exhibition here at the museum were works by George and Ilana Debikey. All three artists are well known in their elds, and these are the rst works by the Gerald Gri n and Ilana Debikey in the collection.

 e collection also accepted three more gifts including Shining  ru, by Doris Steider, Untitled Landscape, by Sister Ru nia Klocke OSF, and  e Magic of Lafayette, by Peter Smith.

Several contemporary pieces were added to the collection from the Indiana Now 2016 exhibition.  ese were Terre Imago, by Bill Cross; Pinned and Sutured, Spirit and Bone, by Helen Geglio; and Willow Sunset, by Carol Strock Wasson.  ese are the rst works by the artists in the collection.

Proper storage for the permanent collection has continued to be a priority for the collections committee.  e current storage space has been reorganized to maximize e ciency and safe storage potential for the collection. However, a larger space is needed to continue in protecting the permanent collection for years to come and for the Art Museum to succeed in it’s mission.  e search for a new museum space is key to the long-term advancement of the Art Museum’s Permanent Collection.  e collections committee will continue to assist in this e ort to locate a larger space to ensure that the artwork within the permanent collection will be available for future generations to experience the treasured works within it.

RECENT NEW ACQUISITIONS TO THE PERMANENT COLLECTION

APRIL 25, 2015  JANUARY 15, 2016 DICK AND CONNIE GRACE FOYER Two outstanding Rudy Pozzatti prints from his recently acquired Hercules Collection were displayed.

THE ZOO

MAY 5, 2015  SEPTEMBER 8, 2015 FOWLER HOUSE GROUNDS A family- friendly exhibition of over 30 full-sized animals created by Detriot artist Dale Teachout. He is an assemblage artist who, as a child, had a junk drawer with broken pieces of things that he would make into collages with hot glue and wire. He enjoyed pop culture, read many comic books and watched many Sci-Fi and sports television shows. This in uenced his dreams and imagination. These interactions along with his obsession for junk and found objects in uence his direction as an artist. Working with his hands, twisting, bending, cutting, etc. helps his imagination move beyond two dimensional drawings to three dimensional  gures.

LANGUAGE OF THE ROAD: MEDITATIONS ON NATURE, REPAIR AND REVERIE

MAY 8, 2015  SEPTEMBER 6, 2015 EAST GALLERY An internationally recognized artist, Charles A. Gick is a Professor of Art in the Department of Art and Design at Purdue University, where he teaches painting, drawing and installation art. He holds a MFA from Northwestern University and a BFA from the Kansas City Art Institute. As an interdisciplinary artist, he combines video, performance, painting, photography and assemblage.

The Language of the Road suggests that a language emerges as we travel along the internal and external pathways of our lives. This body of work blurs the line between surrealism and abstraction. One is o ered a place to explore and contemplate the quiet dialogues formed and the beauty found in the cerebral and physical gestures, marks, and stains that we leave behind in our everyday encounters with nature, repair and reverie.

CONTINUING THE THREAD: AMERICUS QUILT CLUB CENTENNIAL

MAY 8, 2015  SEPTEMBER 6, 2015 MCDONALD AND SHOOK GALLERIES Many people assume that, in the past, most quilts were made out of necessity. The truth is that women of all walks of life made their quilts to add beauty to their home. Quilting has always been a source of artistic expression. This exhibit displayed outstanding examples of handmade quilts created by Club members through the decades.

The Americus Quilting Club was founded in 1915, with the sole purpose of helping  nance the Americus Union Church that was the  rst church in the area. The proceeds from quilting for others were donated to various local charities. The Club helps preserve the art of hand-quilting by teaching, practicing and demonstrating hand-quilting techniques. The Americus Quilting Club is the oldest active group in Indiana. A review of their history was on display in the Mickey Shook Gallery.

ARTSMART: THE LEGACY OF T.C. STEELE

MAY 8, 2015  OCTOBER 18, 2015 WEIL GALLERY “A” Theodore Clement Steele was born in Owen County, on Sept. 11, 1847. He moved to Waveland, southwest of Crawfordsville, when he was 5 years old and later became perhaps the most famous of the Hoosier Group of American impressionist painters. Other painters in the group included William Forsyth, Ottis Adams, Richard B. Gruelle and Otto Stark. These  ve artists trained abroad but returned to Indiana and developed a distinctive style of landscape painting. Paintings included in this exhibit were from the Art Museum’s Permanent Collection and on loan from the Haan Mansion Museum, thanks to Robert and Ellen Haan.

FOUNDATIONS AND FORWARD: WORKS FROM THE PERMANENT COLLECTION

MAY 8, 1215 OCTOBER 18, 2015 WEIL GALLERY “B” Strong foundations are essential for the future. In 1909, the founders of the Art Museum established the Lafayette Art Association, which laid the groundwork for amassing a remarkable Permanent Collection for the next 100 years and beyond. The works in this exhibition featured numerous “foundation” pieces beginning with the  rst acquisition, The Cruise of the Elida, by F. Louis Mora. Over time, works of varying subject matter and medium have been acquired. However, the caliber of the work is the paramount concern. Magni cent examples of craftsmanship included Henry Ossawa Tanner’s Entrance to Kasbah, Frederick Grant’s The Red Parasol, and Thomas Hart Benton’s Planting, to name but a few.

AL POUNDERS: LANDSCAPES AND FLOATING ISLANDS

SEPTEMBER 25, 2015  NOVEMBER 29, 2015 EAST GALLERY Al Pounders grew up in Bu alo, New York.

Mr. Pounders taught in the Visual Arts Department at Purdue University from 1966 until his retirement in 1996. His work has been exhibited in Richmond, Terre Haute, Fort Wayne and Lafayette, Indiana. Other shows include Anderson Art Center, Juneau, Anchorage, Lexington and Murfreesboro.

LOREN OLSON: BEING AND BECOMING IN A FIELD OF RESONANCE

SEPTEMBER 25, 2015  NOVEMBER 29, 2015 MCDONALD GALLERY Loren Olson studied at Purdue University, Texas Tech University and Immaculate Heart College, Los Angeles, CA. Her work has been exhibited in New York City, Antigua, West Indies, Chattanooga, TN, Nacogdoches, TX, Fort Wayne and Lafayette, IN.

In 2010, Loren was prepared for a summer in Italy with her husband Al Pounders, painting watercolors of the Etruscan vase shapes that she had been using for years. Then the Gulf oil spill began. While surrounded by the beauty outside the Umbrian farmhouse where they lived, she checked the newspaper daily to see if the Earth’s black hemorrhage into the blue seawater had been stopped. Her concern for what we are doing to our planet suddenly limited her ability to work in color. She returned to black and white and worked on plastic drafting  lm, a product of the oil endangering life in the Gulf. With a single  gure in each rectangle, each one the same scale as the one before kept coming, as did the oil spill. Taking these  gures into the digital world allows her to combine traditional drawing with many new possibilities.

In Being and Becoming in a Field of Resonance her  gures emerge in a new way, transformed by the shadow of our human activities and the light of our enormous potential to choose conscious evolution over the evolution by chance of the past.

AMBIGUOUS REFLECTIONS OF RACE AND IDENITY: A QUESTION OF COLOR

DECEMBER 18, 2015  FEBRUARY. 28, 2016 EAST GALLERY Gerald Gri n earned a BFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and is the owner of Gri n Fine Art and Interior Design. Mr. Gri n approaches painting conceptually and works to present an open-sided view of the consequences of American life, both to criticize and  nd beauty. Ideas about portraiture and identity have continued to in uence the evolution of his work.

“One makes a piece imbued with the sensibility of one’s own time and sends it out into the world to make contact with the future. Postmodernism de nes the realization that nothing is pre-given. Without absolute belief systems artists are free to invent their own. Many artists practice the Modernist inclination towards debasing the belief in beauty as a transcendent experience. I however, strive for an artistic expression that dares to be beautiful, is thought provoking in scope, and values it’s audience.” Gerald Gri n

CREATIVE SPIRITS: WORKS BY GEORGE, ILANA & OLIVER DEBIKEY

DECEMBER 18, 2015  FEBRUARY 28, 2016 MCDONALD GALLERY George Debikey retired after 33 years of working for American Art Clay Company as Director of research and development. As an artist George is well known through his clay work as a potter, sculptor, designer and works in glass. The lustrous e ects on his sculptural pieces and especially the wall panels, in combination with intricate, yet free design work, make the Raku works come alive as a person moves around them and as the light changes during the course of the day and night.

Ilana Debikey is well known for her designs in handmade paper, exquisite silk paintings, works on clay,  ne porcelain jewelry and her current mixed media paintings in pen and ink, and acrylics with gold. As a multimedia artist, Ilana maintains a very free approach to what she is creating, her work is decorated with a large palette of colors adorned in 23-karat gold, juxtaposed with strands of colors and textures, that exhibit a high sense of beauty and design that makes every piece a one of a kind.

Oliver Debikey was born into a world of art. The son of ceramic artist and engineer George Debikey and proli c multimedia artist Ilana Debikey, Oliver developed a creative passion for art from an early age. A true renaissance man, Oliver received a degree in Aeronautical Engineering before pursuing the lifelong study of glass blowing. Oliver has a natural talent for the application of color and thinks three dimensionally with ease. His insatiable desire to develop and re ne new designs and color schemes motivates him to explore the in nite possibilities of working with hot glass.

ELLEN MANSFIELD – MY DEAFHOOD ART: TRAVELING THROUGH THE DARKNESS INTO LIGHT

DECEMBER 18, 2015  FEBRUARY 14, 2016 SHOOK GALLERY This collection of artworks welcomed viewers to follow along with Ellen Mans eld for a glimpse into her Deaf World. Like many Deaf children, Ellen grew up with non-Deaf parents and so she found her way into the deaf world to discover who she was as a deaf person. Some of her work shows darkness of audism, that is, being imprisoned by social attitudes that deny deaf people access to education and employment.

Coming into the light of the deaf community allowed Ellen to  nd her own light as a deaf person—celebrating our language, shared values, our deaf ancestors and unique ways of being and traveling in the world.

The work is comprised of photo transfers on clay board surfaces with milk paint, gold lea ng, and acrylic paint.”

L A Lamie

“Perhaps the true meanings of these symbols are lost in translation, as the essence of dreams and inward re ections cannot be accurately relayed to others. You are invited to construct your own interpretations of the imagery presented here.”
