from the President and Director

As an anchoring institution in a city with one of the largest concentrations of arts and culture in the nation, the Wadsworth Atheneum is ideally positioned to play a leadership role in the exciting transformations happening throughout Hartford. As a central asset in the innovative iQuilt initiative, which aims to weave together the city’s major cultural attractions, the museum is a catalyst for economic growth and cultural tourism. While the museum kept pace with broader citywide revitalization efforts this past year, we also managed our own program of profound transformation. As part of the museum’s mission to “hold its collection in trust for all people,” we continued to transform our historic five-building campus. With phase one of the renovation completed on time and on budget, plans are now being finalized for commencement of phase two, which will include the renovation and restoration of some of the museum’s most important galleries, several of which have been closed for a decade or more. We are grateful to the State of Connecticut for a recent $2 million grant, which we were awarded to assist with the museum’s ongoing renewal. Our exciting transformation was evident not just in our physical spaces but also in our innovative programs and critically acclaimed exhibitions. We presented seventeen exhibitions this past fiscal year, including “Patti Smith: Camera Solo.” The show opened with a sold-out performance by Patti Smith, received publicity around the world, and is now traveling to a number of museums in the United States and Canada. Our other major exhibition, “Andrew Wyeth: Looking Beyond,” cen- tered on three superb works in our collection by the iconic American artist, painted between 1950 and 1956. These works, Northern Point (1950), April Wind (1952), and Chambered Nautilus (1956), were complemented by related loans, including several from the Wyeth family collection. Scholarly, hand- somely designed catalogues accompanied both exhibitions. In addition, “Colts & Quilts: The Civil War Remembered” provided an opportunity to collaborate with The Amistad Center for Art & Culture and was presented in conjunction with their exhibition “War Prizes: The

Cultural Legacy of Slavery & the Civil War.” Finally, the museum’s famed MATRIX program continued its tradition of innovation with three solo exhibitions by emerging artists working in a variety of mediums: Claire Beckett, Shaun Gladwell, and Jan Tichy. All drew from the museum’s 170-year history and extended our relationship with the community through partnerships with local youth organizations. The transformative impact of the museum’s newly appointed Chief Curator and Krieble Curator of American Painting and Sculpture, Robin Jaf- fee Frank, is already evident in our newly opened American galleries. An ac- complished scholar and a highly respected curator, Robin will continue to lead our plans for the reinstallation of our galleries as we complete the renovation project.

Over the past year, a wide array of programs, including gallery talks and lectures, Second Saturdays, Community Days, and Sunday Serenades, engaged seventy visual artists, storytellers, musical groups, dance troupes, community organizations, and scholars in the greater Hartford community and beyond. Educational programming and tours accounted for 36 percent of the museum’s annual attendance of nearly one-hundred thousand visitors. In addition, attendance at special programs such as First Thursdays, Second Sat- urdays, and the Film Series all saw substantial increases over the prior year. Marquee programs such as Museum on the Move proved that art could have a transformational impact on students’ visual literacy and writing skills. Last year, the museum significantly expanded Museum on the Move, doubling the number of schools served from four to eight. The six-part program includes two in-classroom lessons, two art classroom lessons, a docent classroom visit, and a trip to the museum for a docent-guided tour. In order to measure student growth, writing assessments are used at the beginning and the end of the program; the results demonstrate that art not only has the power to inspire but also the ability to profoundly impact learning. The potentially negative implications of the continued economic downturn on the museum’s operational budget were offset by an 11 percent increase in revenue—a truly remarkable feat that enabled the museum to end its fiscal year on budget for the fifth straight year. Part of this increase was driven by a number of large grant awards, many from prestigious national fun- ders such as the National Endowment for the Arts and the National Endow- ment for the Humanities, in addition to substantial awards from the Hartford Foundation for Public Giving, the State of Connecticut, and numerous private and corporate foundations. As we strive to continue our time-honored traditions of artistic excel- lence, innovation, and leadership, both locally and internationally, we have you, our most dedicated supporters, to thank. Your embrace of our mission and support for our aspirations inspires and energizes all of us every day. We look forward to continuing this journey of transformation together and to an- other extraordinarily successful year at the Wadsworth Atheneum.
