Ellen Stirn Mavec Holt 5 From the Director As even a cursory glance at this annual report will reveal, the past year at the Cleveland Museum of Art has been, in a word, transformational. While some might be skeptical about the merits of such a claim, in this case—and at this time in the history of this institution—it is, I believe, entirely justified. Consider the facts: more than 40,000 objects were moved during the course of five months as we closed our galleries and reluctantly put our world-renowned collection, in its entirety, in storage; fully half of our staff relocated to temporary quarters in an office building in downtown Cleveland; and, most significant, a renovation and expansion project started that will, when completed, leave virtually no part of the museum untouched. While 2005-06—the period covered by this annual report—has not been a time, as the saying goes, for the faint of heart, it has also brought out the best in our staff, our trustees, and our community. To our many Timothy Rub is members and friends we owe a debt of gratitude both for the patience they introduced to the staff of the have shown while the museum has been closed and for the enthusiasm Cleveland Museum they have expressed for our ambitious capital project. To our trustees and of Art. donors who have supported the first phase of this work, we are deeply grateful for their generous contributions to an initiative that they believe is vitally important not only to the future of this institution, but also to our city and our region. Finally, we are especially thankful for the efforts of our Curator of Prints Jane Glaubinger greets the new director while Curator Emeritus Stan Czuma looks on. 6 Tours continued— with a few detours— as galleries closed for renovation. staff throughout this entire process. Without their goodwill and determi- nation, we could not have accomplished so much in such a short period. Although the dominant theme of the past year has been the closing of the museum to prepare for the beginning of our renovation and expan- sion, it should not go unremarked that an equally important focus of our work was how we could continue to serve the Cleveland community dur- ing a time when our customary means of doing so—galleries, classrooms, and the several wonderful performance spaces we have in Marcel Breuer’s great 1971 addition to the museum—were closed to the public. Again, much credit is due to our trustees, who encouraged us to find different ways of making the museum accessible, and to our staff, who demon- strated a great deal of creativity in bringing the museum to the public in many different venues in and around Cleveland. In the process we made many new friends for the museum, forged new institutional partnerships, and learned much more about the community—or, better yet, communi- ties—that we serve. Most notable among these efforts was the development of exhibitions such as The Persistence of Geometry, a groundbreaking collaboration with our sister institution MOCA Cleveland, and long-term loans to other institutions such as the Allen Memorial Art Museum at Oberlin College.

  • Sunrise a Tribute to Our Founders
    Museum of Contemporary Art Cleveland Sunrise A Tribute to Our Founders Sunrise: A Tribute to Our Founders March 15 – August 11, 2019 Sunrise pays homage to our founders, Marjorie Talalay, Nina Sundell, and Mueller Family Gallery Agnes Gund, through artworks that speak to their passions and pursuits. The title references the logo of The New Gallery (moCa’s original name) Organized by Jill Snyder, that was designed by Roy Lichtenstein. A sun rising above a dotted plane Kohl Executive Director with graphic rays fanning through the sky, the logo was a metaphor for the with Kate Montlack, organization, suggesting the vitality and potential of contemporary art. Assistant Director of Exhibitions For this exhibition we invited the daughters of our founders to select works in honor of their mothers. This exhibition represents some of the 20th century’s most influential artists, and each previously has been shown at moCa. Agnes, together with her daughter Catherine, selected sculptural works by three female artists who reinforce her support for the early careers of women artists. Margaret Sundell chose works that reflect her late mother Nina’s professional relationship with Robert Rauschenberg and her embrace of his desire to work in the gap between art and life. Kathy, Nina, and Lauren Talalay’s choices represent meaningful professional and personal moments in their late mother Marjorie’s career as moCa’s longest serving Executive Director (1968–1993). Shown on the cover, Lichtenstein’s logo signals our vanguard legacy. Andy Warhol’s garishly hued portrait of China’s revolutionary leader, (Mao, 1972), Robert Rauschenberg’s collage of American trauma and triumph in the sixties (Signs, 1970), and Lynda Benglis’s vulvar minimalist sculpture (Lagniappe II Major support for this Glitter, 1977) reflect the sociopolitical climate of The New Gallery’s early exhibition provided by years.

  • Discovering the Contemporary
    of formalist distance upon which modernists had relied for understanding the world. Critics increasingly pointed to a correspondence between the formal properties of 1960s art and the nature of the radically changing world that sur- rounded them. In fact formalism, the commitment to prior- itizing formal qualities of a work of art over its content, was being transformed in these years into a means of discovering content. Leo Steinberg described Rauschenberg’s work as “flat- bed painting,” one of the lasting critical metaphors invented 1 in response to the art of the immediate post-World War II Discovering the Contemporary period.5 The collisions across the surface of Rosenquist’s painting and the collection of materials on Rauschenberg’s surfaces were being viewed as models for a new form of realism, one that captured the relationships between people and things in the world outside the studio. The lesson that formal analysis could lead back into, rather than away from, content, often with very specific social significance, would be central to the creation and reception of late-twentieth- century art. 1.2 Roy Lichtenstein, Golf Ball, 1962.
