  • Committee's Cover Letter to Fr. Jenkins
    July 25, 2019 Rev. John I. Jenkins, C.S.C. President University of Notre Dame 400 Main Building Notre Dame, IN 46556 Dear Fr. Jenkins, We are happy to communicate to you the enclosed unanimous recommendations of the Columbus Murals Committee that you convened during the spring semester of the 2018-19 academic year. You charged our committee with addressing three key questions in the wake of your letter to the University community on the feast of Rev. Basil Moreau, C.S.C., founder of the Congregation of Holy Cross, (January 20, 2019), in which you communicated the University’s decision to no longer display the Columbus murals regularly in their current location. These questions were as follows: 1. How shall the University provide a place for the thoughtful consideration of the Luigi Gregori Columbus murals and the context of their composition in a setting other than their current location? 2. What will the coverings of the murals look like? 3. When and how should the original murals be displayed? The committee arrived at a consensus regarding responses to these three questions, as detailed in the attached document. In brief, the committee recommends that the University should: 1. Undertake to create an exhibition about the early history of the University in the spaces on the second floor of the Main building that will be vacated by Admissions in 2022. The proposed exhibition would include, together with high-quality reproductions, a history and discussion of the Luigi Gregori Columbus murals in their rich and varied historical contexts, as outlined in the committee’s recommendations below; 2.

In 1874 Notre Dame’s founder, Rev. Edward Sorin, C.S.C., brought Vatican artist Luigi Gregori to campus. For the next seventeen years, Gregori beautified the school’s interiors––painting scenes on the interior of the Golden Dome and the Columbus murals within the Main Building, as well as creating murals and the Stations of the Cross for the Basilica of the Sacred Heart. In 1875 the Bishops Gallery and the Museum of Indian Antiquities opened in the Main Building. The Bishops Gallery featured sixty portraits of bishops painted by Gregori. In 1899 Rev. Edward W. J.

  • “Life of Washington” Mural the Importance Of
    GEORGE WASHINGTON HIGH SCHOOL “LIFE OF WASHINGTON” MURAL TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS, BUILDING CONSENSUS, RESOURCES (Submitted to SFUSD on 4.17.19, updated 7.16.19) Over the past year, San Francisco Heritage (Heritage) has been researching examples of comparable mural and public art controversies across the country and solutions prescribed for addressing objectionable and offensive imagery. Heritage commissioned the City Landmark nomination for George Washington High School, co-authored by Donna Graves and Christopher VerPlanck, which comprehensively documents the school’s public art and architecture, including Victor Arnautoff’s “Life of Washington” (1936) mural. Heritage is closely following the public process concerning the “Life of Washington” mural, having attended three of the four Reflection and Action Group meetings convened by the school district in early 2019. Regardless of Arnautoff’s original intent, we recognize the offensive nature of the mural’s depictions and their impact on students, especially students of color. Our goal in compiling this memo is to provide a range of technical options for consideration by district officials in order to facilitate a constructive and unifying solution. George Washington High School is the latest in a series of controversies surrounding depictions of Native Americans, African Americans, and other historical events locally and nationally – frequently involving New Deal-era artworks. Although each case must be considered in its own context, taking into account the intent of the artist and how the imagery is experienced by contemporary viewers, there have been a range of creative approaches to remedying inaccurate, offensive, and/or stereotypical content in public art. All of the cases profiled below combine multiple responses to address the controversial historical depictions, including screening, interpretation, education, and/or new artwork to provide a contemporary perspective.
