Pursued musical studies during the same time. 1927 Applied for admission to the master class for violin at the Academy for Music in Vienna, but did not pass entrance examination. 1927-33 Worked as textile designer in the Vienna office of FriV Schonwdlder. 1 933 Lost his job. Met Certrud Amon who got him interested in clay. 1934 Studied at the ceramic workshop of Franz lskia for less than a year. 1 935 Established own workshop with Certrud Amon in Vienna. This was the beginning of their collaborative work. Doing some clay modeling on his own simultaneously, he sculpted portraits of friends and of some of his favorite musicians. Among others, he made from memory and without the aid of photographs portraits of Bronislav Huberman, Arturo Toscanini, and Bruno Walter. This led, a year or two later, to his only commission as a sculptor: a portrait head of Shirley Temple, to be done from publicity photographs which were supplied to him. The head was intended for mass- production of a Shirley Temple doll. [Otto believed he received the commission because he was not interested in it and, instead of saying "no", quoted an outrageous fee.] 1935-37 Those years were marked by groping with technical difficulties in their work, and at the same time trying to make the workshop become self- supporting. 1937 )une B - 22.

ANNUAL REPORT ANNUAL 2013–2014 Cover: GIUSEPPE PENONE Italian, born 1947 Albero folgorato (Thunderstuck Tree), 2012 Bronze with gold leaf 433 1/16 x 96 3/4 x 79 in. (1100 x 245.7 x 200.7 cm) Museum purchase funded by the Caroline Wiess Law Accessions Endowment Fund 2014.728 While arboreal imagery has dominated Giuseppe Penone’s sculptures across his career, monumental bronzes of storm- blasted trees have only recently appeared as major themes in his work. Albero folgorato (Thunderstuck Tree), 2012, is the culmination of this series. Cast in bronze from a willow that had been struck by lightning, it both captures a moment in time and stands fixed as a profoundly evocative and timeless monument.

    Recent Acquisitions: Inclusive and Diverse, February 18, 2000-April 16, 2000 For more than a century, The RISD Museum has been actively collecting art from all ages and cultures. This is consistent with the shared mission of the Museum and School of Design to promote "the general advancement of public Art Education, by the exhibition of works of Art ..." In any given year, several hundred objects enter the permanent collection through donation, purchase, and bequest. The Museum's holdings included approximately 80,000 artworks at last count. Visitors often wonder why museums acquire some works of art and not others. This exhibition presents a selection of objects acquired over the past five years by the Museum's six curatorial departments: Ancient Art, Asian Art, Costume and Textiles, Decorative Arts, Painting and Sculpture, and Prints, Drawings, and Photographs. Other recent acquisitions are displayed in the Museum's various permanent collection galleries. For this exhibition, the labels accompanying each object take a new approach. In addition to identifying the artist, date, materials, and donor's name, each label explains why a particular object is an appropriate addition to the Museum's collection. Among the often cited reasons for acquiring works of art are: • to augment existing collection strengths • to extend the range of holdings into new areas of collecting and to respond to an expanding and culturally diverse audience • to support teaching at the School of Design, a priority that sets The RISD Museum apart from many other art museums • to present works of strong visual impact -- beauty as its own reward There are many objects whose fragility does not allow extended exposure to light and air (for example, textiles, watercolors, and silver).

  • Gertrud Natzler (1908-1971) Artist's Statement – Otto
    OTTO NATZLER (1908–2007) & GERTRUD NATZLER (1908-1971) The partnership of Otto and Gertrud Natzler lasted for 36 years and produced over 25,000 vessels. Gertrud was the potter, creating incredibly thin, exquisitely shaped and deceptively simple forms. Otto supervised the firing and developed the glazes that enhanced and completed the pots. At a time when ornate ceramics was in vogue, the Natzlers produced pure forms. “The form of a pot is the main part of its spiritual substance. Its outline, its proportions and balance, the finger marks impressed on its wall, are the simple statement of its creator, spontaneous and personal as his handwriting.”1 After Gertrud‟s untimely death in 1971, Otto completed the glazing of the pots she had left behind. He continued working in ceramics, making slab forms and adding to the over 2,000 glazes he developed, until his death in 2007 at age 99. 1. John Ready. “The Work of Gertrude and Otto Natzler.” http://www.uwlax.edu/Advancement/connectx/03-issues/feb3/natzler-statement.html ARTIST’S STATEMENT – OTTO NATZLER “Man‟s creations are part of nature and he must at all times work in accordance with its forces…The mysteries of the medium will remain just that. In all we have done we may have penetrated a little beyond the surface. If we did, it was because we tried to do what we believed was in the nature of the medium. The medium is subtle and unassuming, expressive and responsive in its own way. The art of pottery is to the field of art what chamber music is to the field of music.

The bulk of these photographs were created by the Los Angeles County Museum of Art Photo Services department. The Photos Services Department fulfilled requests for photographs from museum departments to perform original photography or provide reproductions of existing photography of museum events, staff, art objects, and installations for the purposes of reference, to produce publications, for publicity, and other purposes. LACMA has had its own photography department since at least 1964 when staff documented the move of the museum's art collections from Exhibition Park to its location on Wilshire Boulevard.
