  • 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.

  • An Analysis of the 50-Year Rule, 1966-2010
    Copyright by Emily Jeanne Koller 2011 The Report Committee for Emily Jeanne Koller Certifies that this is the approved version of the following report: Listed, Obliterated or Status Unknown: An Analysis of the 50-Year Rule, 1966-2010 APPROVED BY SUPERVISING COMMITTEE: Supervisor: Michael Holleran Monica Penick Listed, Obliterated or Status Unknown: An Analysis of the 50-Year Rule, 1966-2010 by Emily Jeanne Koller, B.A.; MA Report Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Community and Regional Planning The University of Texas at Austin May 2011 Abstract Listed, Obliterated or Status Unknown: An Analysis of the 50-Year Rule, 1966-2010 Emily Jeanne Koller, MSCRP The University of Texas at Austin, 2011 Supervisor: Michael Holleran The report evolves from previous work in the field that questions the efficacy of the 50-year rule, or criterion consideration G, of the National Register of Historic Places program to register and protect modern and recent past resources. Proponents of the recent past argue that by restricting evaluation of historic architecture to only that which is 50-years or older is leading to widespread endangerment and demolition of buildings and sites with periods of significance from the postwar era. This report studies the use of criterion G in-depth since the inception of the National Register program and attempts to identify and quantify the resources lost through continued adherence to the 50-year rule. The analysis is done in two parts.

  • Jump on Board High-Performing Not-For-Profit Boards in Fundraising
    JUMP ON BOARD HIGH-PERFORMING NOT-FOR-PROFIT BOARDS IN FUNDRAISING November 2019 PREPARED BY Melissa Smith Director & Founder, Noble Ambition in partnership with Perpetual ABOUT THE AUTHOR Melissa is former Global Fundraiser of the Year (IFC, 2011) and Australian Fundraiser of the Year (FIA, 2011). She has facilitated philanthropic giving across education, the arts and health, and worked with hundreds of donors in Australia, Asia and the United States. Melissa has led four fundraising programs from start-up to established, from Powerhouse Museum and Sydney Opera House in the arts, to University of Technology, Sydney and RMIT University, in education. Melissa has a BA Hons (First Class, USyd), Masters of Management (UTS); is a Churchill Fellow (2007) and a graduate of University of Melbourne’s Asialink Leaders Program and Benevolent Society’s Sydney Leadership Program. She has presented her research internationally in areas including the impact of culture on philanthropy, international best practice in arts philanthropy, and the role of leadership in philanthropy. Melissa’s lifelong interest and experience enables her to understand both philanthropy and fundraising. As a thought leader in the philanthropic and fundraising sector, she is in the privileged position of possessing the practical and strategic skills to support both pillars equally. Jump on Board: High-performing not-for-profit boards in fundraising 2 Philanthropic fundraising in Australia is in a state of rapid change. While mass giving is in decline, major gifts are on the rise, and in coming years we will see the largest intergenerational transfer of wealth in our nation’s history. This undoubtedly presents an exciting opportunity for the non-for-profit (NFP) sector to attract significant support, but also raises questions about how prepared NFPs are to maximise this opportunity.

    OBSESSIVE GENIUS: THE INNER WORLD OF MARIE CURIE PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Barbara Goldsmith | 272 pages | 09 Jun 2006 | WW Norton & Co | 9780393327489 | English | New York, United States Obsessive Genius: The Inner World of Marie Curie PDF Book It was shocking, though not surprising, to read how her contributions were ignored by the Nobel committee. The intensity of her passion for science, unfortunately, cost her time with her children, creating rifts, especially with the youngest one. Mail will not be published required. Great read that is hard to put down. Place Published New York. Sometimes books go on and on and you drown in the details, but not here. About Barbara Goldsmith. There is also some commentary from Goldsmith, towards the end, about what drew her to Marie Curie in the first place. So admired her spunk, because she basically had to fight every step of the way the prejudices of the time. While her work won her two Nobel Prizes and transformed our world, it did not liberate her from the prejudices of either the male-dominated scientific community or society. Eliza Foss does a good job narrating the book. She never received much in the way of formal treatment for her depressive episodes. Massie pdf. I really enjoyed this book and learned so much not only about Madame Curie but also about the scientific world of the 19th and early 20th century. In fact, the Curie clothing and papers are still to this day radioactive! Daniel H. Also thought she did a very good job, mixing their health, their home and their work.
