Perhaps if we look back over the last year we can identify our accomplishments and give them the due they deserve. In the spring of 2015, the Board of Trustees hired Lee Carol Giduz as our new Executive Director. She came to BRAHM from the Caldwell Arts Council, after serving there as Executive Director for over twenty years. In addition to her extensive experience, she is well-connected in the arts community throughout North Carolina and has served on Linda Russell & Lee Carol Giduz numerous statewide and regional boards. Currently, she serves on the Executive Board of Wildacres Leadership Dear BRAHM Friends, Initiative, a statewide organization, and on the Board of the Watauga Community Foundation.

Over the past year, we shared a total of 13 major exhibitions with our community, many of which were built around the interdisciplinary potential of both history and the arts, a direction we hope will continue to guide this department. Two of our newest exhibitions this year were permanent exhibits that will be open for the long haul and are dedicated to works from our Permanent Collection, including a selection of works by historic artist Elliott Daingerfield. The Museum also expanded its exhibition space by hanging works in the previously empty walls of our upstairs hallway as well as in our newly reclaimed Schaefer Gallery, which showcases glass and ceramics from our collection. We hope everyone is excited about all of the new directions our exhibitions department is pursuing, and we look forward to presenting more engaging, challenging, and diverse exhibitions in the years to come. - Dianna Cameron, Exhibitions & Collections Director 6 Page PB Ruined Landscapes: Paintings of the Balkan War Zone January 17 - March 28, 2015 Fort Gallery Ruined Landscapes was on loan from the Turchin Center for the Visual Arts in Boone, NC and resulted from a generous gift from Hugh and Jane Spratt McColl. A native of Scotland, eventually settling in France, painter Laura Buxton traveled to the Balkans in 1994 and found great inspiration for her work in a war-ridden land. “As an artist,” Buxton said, “I felt this tremendous responsibility to say something that would be worthwhile, that other people could see. And even if they couldn’t understand, they could at least gain some insight from a different point of view.” Special Thanks: Turchin Center for the Visual Arts, Boone, NC and Hugh & Jane Spratt McColl Jerry Burns: Through the Lens February 13 - April 25, 2015 Stevens Gallery Jerry Burns: Through the Lens was presented in collaboration with the Blowing Rock Historical Society. Nearly 200 photographs of the town and community were displayed, many of which were taken by Jerry during his time as editor of the Blowing Rocket newspaper. Jerry Burns was rarely seen without a camera. He was known for his modesty, and as such, he preferred to be behind the scenes, taking in the action and capturing in every photograph the town that he so loved. With nicknames like “Mr. Blowing Rock” and “Mr. Sunshine,” it’s easy to see that the community appreciated Jerry just as much in return. His work and dedication to the town became a model to the community of what it means to be a Blowing Rock citizen. Special Thanks: Blowing Rock Historical Society, Trent Margrif, and Janice Burns Jerry Burns: Through the Lens.

The exhibition was organized by our friends at the Cameron Art Museum in Wilmington, NC. Bruce Barclay Cameron began collecting decoys in the late 70’s. This exhibition highlighted a selection of Mr. Cameron’s most noted decoys and brought a collection of treasures from the coast to our mountains. Through his collecting, Cameron learned all about the careful craft involved in making one of these sculptures, from the nuances of the paint quality and form to the spirit of the bird itself. Each artisan took into consideration a love for the birds to make these sculptures come to life, allowing them to stand alone as works of art that can be appreciated from all directions.

From this we might assume that Eastman, and perhaps Chapman, may have consulted a wartime pho- tograph. His antebellum Sumter is highly idealized, drawn perhaps from an as-yet unidentified print, or extrapolated from maps and plans of the fort—child’s play for a master topographer like Eastman. Coastal Defenses The forts painted by Eastman had once been the state of the art, before rifled artillery rendered masonry Fig. 11.

By 1867, when the construction of new Third System fortifications ceased, more than 40 citadels defended Amer- ican coastal waters.12 Most of East- man’s forts were constructed under the Third System, but few of them saw action during the Civil War. A number served as military prisons. As commandant of Fort Mifflin on the Delaware River from November 1864 to August 1865, Col. Eastman would have visited Fort Delaware on Pea Patch Island, located in the river channel between Wilmington and New Castle, Delaware. Channel-dredging had dumped tons of spoil at the northern end of the island, land upon which a miserable prison-pen housed enlisted Confederate pris- oners of war. Their officers were Fig. 12. It appears that Eastman used this George N. Barnard photograph, Fort quartered within the fort in relative Sumter in April, 1865, as the source for his painting.

  • Signature Drawings:’ Social Networks and Collecting Practices in Antebellum Albums
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: ‘SIGNATURE DRAWINGS:’ SOCIAL NETWORKS AND COLLECTING PRACTICES IN ANTEBELLUM ALBUMS Joy Peterson Heyrman, Ph.D., 2008 Directed By: Professor Sally M. Promey, Department of Art History and Archaeology Characterized in their own time as “miniature and easily-attainable works of art,” drawings by American artists of the antebellum period were prized by fellow artists as mementi of friendship and by collectors as marks of the artist’s hand. This dissertation presents a broad examination of the social meanings and contemporary contexts of these quietly communicative works of art. Using archival and documentary evidence, it investigates rich spheres of activity in the “social lives” of drawings. Special qualities of the medium and particularities of drawings exchange informed their reception. In the public sphere of business and social transaction between artists and patrons, drawings functioned as “social currency,” building a community connected through gift-giving and competitive collecting. Albums of drawings reflected social networks and communicated the owner’s privileged access to artists who practiced that particularly intimate form of expression. Drawings were also displayed in the antebellum parlor, a private setting encoded with aspiration to personal refinement and social position. In that sphere, drawings served a didactic, regulatory function, presenting sentimental and moral themes that provided a visual buffer to the turbulent public history of the time. My study reveals that many of the drawings collected in antebellum albums were originals for images subsequently reproduced as giftbook illustrations or prints. This dissertation demonstrates that antebellum viewers perceived drawing and writing as aligned, complimentary modes of expression; similar motivations thus informed the collecting of drawings and autographs.

In 1825 the dramatic scenery of the Hudson River Valley inspired a young artist, Thomas Cole, to create the first paintings of the American landscape in the new, Romantic style. What began as a casual group of painters eager to capture the beauty of upstate New York grew to become a school of artists who traveled the country and even the world producing some of the masterpieces of American art.
