From the Director
Dear Friends, Board of Trustees Lewis Kruger welc om e Chairman JEROME A. CHAZEN Everything came up roses for us last spring. We opened two highly Chairman Emeritus popular shows, Dead or Alive: Nature Becomes Art and Bespoke: The BARBARA TOBER Chairman Emerita Handbuilt Bicycle, which brought us enthusiastic reviews from Linda E. Johnson Secretary publications and blogs from as far away as Moscow, Singapore, FRED KLEISNER Treasurer and Adelaide. (You can read a few choice plaudits from the local HOLLY HOTCHNER press on page 3.) And our Zombo Italiano film series, conceived as a Director
diverting complement to Dead or Alive, brought to MAD a throng of Stanley S. Arkin Ambassador 20-somethings, almost all new to the museum. If our visitor surveys Diego E. Arria Kay Bucksbaum are to be trusted, these young moviegoers will be coming back for Holly Hotchner Cecily Carson Nanette L. Laitman Director the exhibitions as well as the film offerings. We also grabbed the Tzili Charney Simona Chazen attention of Columbus Circle passersby, especially cyclists, with Michele Cohen our outdoor “MyBike Photobooth.” During its 12-week run more Dan Dailey Eric Dobkin than 2000 photos were snapped.

And a true premiere it is, as this is the first survey of contemporary Latin American jewelry ever in North America. Much like The Global Africa Project, it is an exhibition that challenges stereotypes about a singular African aesthetic.

Shoot My Bike
With the expectation that the exhibition Bespoke: The Handbuilt Bicycle would attract a brand new audience of bikers and bike enthusiasts to MAD, we built the MyBike Photobooth to engage these newcomers, as well as the larger audience of passersby on their way to Central Park and Columbus Circle. On the museum’s glass facade participants pressed a ‘button’—really a light- sensitive sensor—that triggered a 10-second
Photos from countdown, giving them ample time to strike the mybike.madmuseum.org perfect pose. All images were then uploaded to an online gallery, where visitors could browse through the hundreds of photos. While the project was intended to attract bike riders, we collected so many fun images of non-bikers that we shared those, too. In total, over the 12 weeks the photo booth was active, we snapped over 2000 pictures. At left is a sampling. You can see the rest at mybike.madmuseum.org.

Several of Sandy’s friends, including Norma Minkowitz, Dorothy Gill Barnes, Carol Eckert, David Ling, and Sheila Hicks, created one-of-a-kind plates as a tribute to her.
