The Huntington Museum of Art, in an exclusive partnership with the Telfair Museums in Savannah, Georgia, brings you the exhibit Visions of The Prophet: The Visual Art of Kahlil Gibran. This collection of works by the Lebanese-born, visionary artist and writer Kahlil Gibran (1883-1931) includes 96 drawings, watercolors, and paintings. Beloved worldwide for his writings, his visual art is less known, ironic since it was visual art that he pursued first. Gibran is best known for his book titled The Prophet, a collection of 26 philosophical essays that became one of the top-selling books of the twentieth century. Since it was first published in 1923, The Prophet has never been out of print, and has been translated into 40 languages. The book was especially popular during the 1960s with followers of the American counterculture and New Age movements. Inspired by painters from the Renaissance, the Pre- Raphaelites, the French Symbolists, and others, such as visionary William Blake, Gibran sought to express symbolic ideas about life, humanity, and the interconnectedness of all things in his own unique way. These works span his career and include early works from his first exhibition at photographer Fred Holland Day’s studio in Boston in 1904, to works created during the last years of his life, including six works used as illustrations in his last book The Garden of the Prophet. All the pieces on view come from the personal collection of Gibran’s patron Mary Haskell who donated her collection to the Telfair Museums in 1950. They provide a survey of Gibran’s career as a visual artist, document his relationship with Mary Haskell, and substantiate his literary career with examples of several drawings and watercolors used as illustrations for six of his English-written books.

Registration does not imply endorsement. Letter from the Executive Director Dear Members, On November 9, 1952, the Huntington Museum of Art opened its doors for the first time. As a fledgling institution it struggled throughout the years but because of the efforts of many, many committed individuals, it slowly grew into the incredible arts organization that it is today. This fall, HMA will celebrate sixty years of serving this community; sixty years of professional, high quality art exhibitions; and sixty years of fostering creativity in children and adults – no small accomplishment. On November 9, 2012, HMA will open its sixtieth anniversary exhibit, Mr. Fitz, honoring Herbert Fitzpatrick, the man who donated the land where HMA is sited and his personal art holdings, which became the original permanent collection of our Museum. One of the important things about Mr. Fitz, as he was fondly called, was that he wanted to be sure that the community truly wanted and would support an institution such as this. So, he challenged the community to raise the funds to construct the Shown is an aerial photograph from 1951 of construction on the future Huntington Gal- facility as a prerequisite to his gifts.

Sitting on the mighty Ohio River at the point where West Virginia, Ohio and Kentucky meet, Huntington has been nicknamed the “Jewel City.” In its early days the city was a thriving port with steam river boats churning by daily. The captains gave nicknames to the cities they passed for navigational purposes and they dubbed Huntington the "Jewel City." Steam boats shipped lumber and coal to fuel the growth of the railroad extension to the west. This growth was made possible by the city's namesake and founder, Collis P. Huntington, an infamous railroad magnate. Our picturesque city is a year-round destination for beautiful scenery. In the Spring, enjoy the abundance of colorful, blooming dogwood trees that are trademarks of the residential areas. By mid- summer, the nationally renowned Rose Garden of Ritter Park is in full bloom and ready for weddings and garden parties.

West Virginia residents may obtain a summary of the registration and financial documents from the Secretary of State, State Capitol, Charleston, WV 25305. Registration does not imply endorsement. Letter from the Executive Director Dear Members, When you work somewhere for a long time, it is always a challenge to maintain an open viewpoint and think outside the box. That is why it is always informative when new employees come to work here and we have the opportunity to hear their perspectives on who we are and what we do. More than 10 years ago, when Jenine Culligan, HMA’s Senior Curator, came to work here, she had some excellent thoughts about the Gropius Master Artist Workshop Program. She suggested that HMA’s Gropius program should grow its focus on clay artists. She noted that having a greater emphasis on clay was in keeping with the vision of Walter Gropius to provide a workshop of ideas where a synthesis of art, design and form is created; to make everything beautiful – even the most functional of objects. Like many great ideas that happen up here, it began percolating in people’s minds and began to inform decisions being made Museum- wide. Lots of serendipitous things occurred. The Education Department, under the direction of Katherine Cox, began slowly to incorporate clay activities into new and existing programming. Kathleen Kneafsey became HMA’s Ceramic Artist in Residence and participated in the Gropius Program’s selection process having a tremendous impact in bringing more ceramic artists to HMA.
