  • Handmade and Mind Made Our Permanent Collection
    Handmade And Mind Made Our Permanent Collection Raleigh-Durham International Airport Ellen Driscoll’s Wingspun, © 2008; Terminal 2, Raleigh-Durham International Airport Ed Carpenter’s Triplet, © 2010; Terminal 2, Raleigh-Durham International Airport About The Collection Raleigh-Durham International Airport is the gateway to Central and Eastern North Carolina. More than 9 million passengers travel through our airport each year on commercial flights, with millions more arriving daily to greet or dropoff passengers, fly on private aircraft or rent facilities for events. The Airport Authority created its Art Master Plan in 2000 to serve as an organizational tool for public art at RDU. The themes handmade and mind made were selected to refer to the region’s rich history of craftsmanship in furniture and textiles and the high-tech scientific reputation enjoyed today. An art advisory council comprised of Airport Authority staff, regional arts council representatives and others jury-selected the 15 pieces in RDU’s permanent collection to represent the collection’s theme and enhance the passenger experience. The collection’s first installation, The Terminal 1 Art Murals, was installed in 2002. The newest pieces will be installed in early 2014 as part of the Terminal 1 modernization project. Wellington Reiter Skilled in pen and ink drawings, as well as large scale architectural works, Wellington Reiter is a 1981 graduate of Tulane University and went on to study at Harvard University and the North London Polytechnic School. He is known for public commissions using steel and light. His pieces are on display at locations as varied as the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, Tulane University School of Architecture, offices of World Cinema Corporation in California and in private collections around the world.

  • Cintas Foundation Announces Lydia Rubio Gift
    For immediate release Media contact: Nicole Kaufman 305-348-3689 / [email protected] Cintas Foundation Announces Lydia Rubio Gift Miami (February 6, 2007) - The Cintas Foundation is pleased to announce the acquisition of a major work by the artist Lydia Rubio. Alarcolira, a three-dimensional large-scale piece, which was donated this week by Miss Rubio and will be held by the Frost Art Museum at Florida International University, where the Cintas Fellows Collection is managed. Lydia Rubio, born in Havana and a resident of Miami, was trained as an architect at the University of Florida and attended the Graduate School of Design at Harvard University. She received a Cintas Foundation Fellowship in the Visual Arts in 1981. The critic Valerie Gladstone offered this description of Rubio’s work in ARTnews: “Rubio brings to painting a calligraphic skill that intensifies and delineates her every image. Buildings, landscape, and geometry are the channels through which she presents her kaleidoscopic and refreshingly iconoclastic view of the world.” Rubio has been a professor and lecturer in design at the University of Puerto Rico, Harvard University, Parsons School of Design, Miami-Dade College and the New World School for the Arts in Miami. She has frequent solo exhibitions in galleries throughout the United States and has participated in numerous group shows, including Unbroken Ties: Dialogues in Cuban Art at the Museum of Latin American Art in Long Beach, California, and No Show at the Fred Snitzer Gallery in Miami. Her work is in many permanent collections, including those of the Museum of Art in Fort Lauderdale and the City of Orlando.
