2018-2019 ANNUAL REPORT Museum of Art The annual PreK Family Fest was held April 23, 2019 at FWMoA. This free event was targeted to Fort Wayne Community Schools PreK students and their families to enjoy art creation stations and a gallery scavenger hunt. Throughout the school year, the Children’s Education Department serves 1,200 preschool students with developmentally-appropriate museum experiences. Thanks to major funding from Lincoln Financial Foundation, Wells Fargo, and the Dr. Louis and Anne B. Schneider Foundation, children’s programming is free for students at most Northern schools.

The 2019 Chalk Walk was held July 13 and 14 for over 200 artists to turn Main Street into the colorful canvas of the city. While some of the participants have artistic backgrounds, many chalkers have no formal art training. This makes their creations that much more impressive, executed in the blistering heat on an unforgiving surface. Even a Saturday night rainstorm didn’t deter the most dedicated chalkers who came back Sunday to recreate their squares once again. Financial Snapshot Our 2018-2019 Revenue and Expenses

The artist and his team of two installed the sculpture during the week of November 26, 2018. Repose in Amber joins the museum’s growing collection of contemporary glass sculpture, a distinctly American art form that is under recognized by many American art museums.

Presented in the Karl S. and Ella L. Bolander gallery of the museum, Repose in Amber is an immersive and dynamic landscape that visitors can walk through and around as well as peer into and explore.

Years in the making, the artwork was commissioned by real estate developer and art philanthropist Mike Kurzman for Chicago’s 120 South LaSalle Building and included as part of Chicago’s Public Art and Architecture Tour.

“This sculpture embodies the mirroring principle in my work: the way two juxtaposed objects relate to one another. When walking around Repose in Amber, the eye moves and flows through each object, and the negative spaces created between empty space become as powerful and potent as the actual objects themselves.

“I’ve expressed the continuity between the landscape and the human in Repose in Amber. My work revolves around trying to reconnect with our natural source – drawing on humanistic and naturalistic qualities, and honoring their connection.

“For me, great visual art is like music. All you have to do is feel it. I believe it can connect you back to the source of a simple being.”

-Martin Blank What we’re most proud of this year: Exhibitions One of our standout exhibitions this year was All Access: Exploring Humanism in the Art of Chuck Sperry in September 2018. With an opening reception and party September 14, 245 people traveled from around the country for the chance to see Chuck Sperry’s first solo museum exhibition and purchase his newest prints.

While Chuck Sperry got his start creating gig posters for rock bands, the guitar has earlier beginnings. Its evolution to the modern guitar was documented in the exhibition Medieval to Metal: The Art and Evolution of the Guitar, which ran over the 2018 holiday season. A special lecture with master Luthier Paul Reed Smith in October brought a great crowd!

1026 West Berry Street: The Fort Wayne Art School opened in November 2018, nearly 200 years after the first few art classes began in Fort Wayne, but just 98 years after the Fort Wayne Art School opened. Curated by Fort Wayne Art School graduate Suzanne Slick, this exhibition brought the artwork of professors and alumni back together and helped the museum trace its own history back through time.

“The only way to truly understand something is to draw it,” famous words that artist Joel Daniel Phillips believes and creates by. During his residency and exhibition Charcoal Testament: Drawings by Joel Daniel Phillips, he drew a life size portrait of Fort Wayne arts community staple Suzanne Galazka, now part of our permanent collection!

Famed draftsman, printmaker, and painter of African American life, as well as the co-inventor of the Carborundum printmaking process, Dox Thrash spent much of his career living and working in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Curator of Prints and Drawings Sachi Yanari-Rizzo and the Dolan/Maxwell Gallery created Dox Thrash: The Hopeful Gaze in April of this year. What we’re most proud of this year: Collection Acquisitions This year, 967 objects were accessioned into the permanent collection.

The annual Día de los Muertos exhibition was a feast for the eyes, and this year we introduced the Interactive Community Altar. One altar space was dedicated for members of the community to contribute a small personal item or photo to honor a deceased loved one in the tradition of Día de los Muertos. We provided a book in which visitors could write the name of their loved ones in that we will place on the altar each year.

Photo by Ray Steup This year was a big year for lectures! American art historian Dr. Beth Kuebler Wolf, Professor in the School of Creative Arts at the University of Saint Francis spoke in late September about the blockbuster Winslow Homer: From Poetry to Fiction, The Engraved Works. Master luthier and founder of PRS Guitars Paul Reed Smith spoke in October about the guitars in Medieval to Metal: The Art and Evolution of the Guitar. Indiana artist John Bower spoke about his documentary photography work in April. Retired Curator of Prints, Drawings, and Photographs at the Indianapolis Museum of Art at NewfieldsMartin Krause shared his knowledge on the artists in The Ideal Sketching Ground: Prints by the Artists of Brown County in May, and we ended the season with a champagne brunch and lecture with glass artist Marlene Rose in June. Hopefully you saw her featured on CBS Sunday Morning in late September 2019! We love what the Museum of Art does for the Fort Wayne community. Not only does it showcase beautiful exhibits for all to experience, but it also provides education to thousands of area school children yearly. Being Thieme Society members is an easy way for us to help the museum fulfill its mission.

Michael Greene and David Kirk

Art impacts the health, well being and development of a community. Examples of that importance can be found in the dramatic rebirth of downtown Fort Wayne where public art can be found on every block. The Museum of Art has been and will continue to be a leading catalyst for improving the quality of life in northeast Indiana. Mary and I are supporting the Mission and Values of the Museum by including it in our estate plan. We are proud to be part of the Thieme Society.

In January 2019, FWMoA received a $1,000,000 grant from the June E. Enoch Foundation to establish the June E. Enoch Collection Fund. The gift will be used to create a fund to acquire and care for works of art for its collections. In December 2018, the FWMoA Board of Directors gratefully accepted this gift with a unanimous vote to approve the conditions of the gift that will govern this fund.

The late Ms. Enoch, who died in 2017, was a longtime member, volunteer, and donor of the Fort Wayne Museum of Art. She served on its Board of Directors for several terms beginning in 1980, contributing much expertise to the museum’s finance, education, and facility programs.

The Indiana Arts Homecoming is a gathering of Indiana’s artists, arts providers and creative communities who are doing work every day to create opportunities that are vibrant, engaging, and embedded in the lives of our citizens. FWMoA was proud to be a major partner for the 2018 Homecoming in October and a guest of the Governor’s Arts Awards held at Sweetwater Sound.

Originally presented in 1973, the Governor’s Arts Awards recognize excellence in artistic achievement, philanthropy, arts education, and leadership in the arts and are presented biennially at a public event. In 2018, Governor Eric Holcomb chose Woodwork by Tim Kennedy as the year’s winner. Tim’s piece features rustic and classic elements incorporated into a simplistic, contemporary design.

My husband and I have called Fort Wayne our home for 46 years. We love it here and believe that it is important to be I involved in the community in a variety of ways. I was fortunate to be an educator for almost 30 years. Both of our children have some artistic talent and to foster this interest we have visited many art museums over the years, FWMoA being one of them.

How did you become involved in the docent program? When I retired in 2016, I decided that I would volunteer in the community. The Fort Wayne Museum of Art has been a favorite place of ours. I found out that there was a need for docents to work with children. With my education background, I thought this would be a perfect match. I have thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of being a docent.

What does being a docent mean to you? I was never exposed to art growing up. There was a small art museum in the town I lived in, but I may have only visited it a few times. While at Ball State I often visited the art museum on campus. Throughout the years I have had the opportunity to visit many art museums. I have often wished that I would have had more exposure to art growing up. Being a part of the docent program means that I can foster an interest in art in local students. I am also being exposed to artists and mediums that are new to me. As a part of being a docent, we learn so much about the different exhibits.

What do you think it means to the community? I believe that when a young person is exposed to art, it broadens their world. This exposure helps the student to become more open to new experiences. It is always a delight to watch their faces when they encounter something new. Their questions and comments about the exhibits are wonderful. Hopefully, the visits to the museum will be the beginning of an interest in the cultural opportunities in our community.

Do you have any memorable stories from your time as a docent? A first grade boy, who had been somewhat restless and distracted during a tour, walked into the Peter Bremers glass exhibition, threw his hands in the air and exclaimed, “This is AMAZING!” He was absolutely engaged for the remainder of the tour. www.fwmoa.org FWMoA is funded in part by Arts United of Greater Fort Wayne. This activity made possible, in 311 East Main Street part, with support from the Indiana Arts Commission and the National Endowment for the Arts, a Fort Wayne, IN 46802 federal agency.
