ANNUAL REPORT 2015

Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art REPORT from the President of the Board of Trustees David W. Dangremond President, Board of Trustees

Legacy for the Future

When I joined the Board of Trustees of the Wadsworth Atheneum in 1992 I could not imagine what a prominent and permanent place in my heart this museum would occupy nearly 25 years later. Now, as I conclude my four years as President of the Board of Trustees, I look back with enormous pride and satisfaction at all that has been accomplished during one of the most transformative periods in the museum’s history.

Over its long and illustrious lifetime the Wadsworth Atheneum has gone through many chapters in its evolution, and at this moment I am convinced that we are entering the next great era for the Wadsworth Atheneum. I am delighted that you as members and supporters are here to join us on that exciting journey as we bring the museum and its world-renowned collections to ever wider regional, national, and international audiences.

The tireless and highly professional work of our entire extraordinarily talented staff, and the dedication of my fellow Board members throughout this challenging period of renovation and renewal of America’s oldest public art museum has been unprecedented here at the Wadsworth Atheneum. Today, more of our museum galleries are open and more of our collections on view than ever before.

What a great privilege it has been to work in partnership with our talented and visionary leader, our Director and CEO Susan Talbott. Having Co-Chaired the It has been a great honor and pleasure to serve as President of America’s oldest Director Search Committee which brought Susan to the Wadsworth Atheneum art museum these past four years. I thank each of you as devoted members and nearly eight years ago, I have been gratified to watch with admiration as Susan has supporters of our museum as we celebrate together the remarkably renewed made the museum a source of inspiration for local and regional visitors through and reinstalled Wadsworth Atheneum: New Since 1842! I like to think that engaging outreach programs attracting unprecedented numbers of new and the renewed Wadsworth Atheneum which Susan Talbott and I will soon pass on supportive audiences. Concurrently, Susan has successfully charted the course to our successors is truly a Legacy for the Future on which our museum family will and overseen the most extensive renovation in the nearly 175 year history of the continue to build as we continue our journey of transformation together in the Wadsworth Atheneum. The overwhelming response from local, national, and years ahead! international press has validated the vision adopted by our staff and Trustees, and inspired us to continue with ever-greater determination our time-honored Sincerely, traditions of artistic excellence, leadership, and innovation. David W. Dangremond, President, Board of Trustees

4 5 REPORT from the Director & CEO

“A Masterpiece of Renovation,” proclaimed Roberta Smith’s headline in The New York Times. “Hurrah,” she continued, “Another American museum has gotten it right.”

When asked how I’m doing my answer has been the same since our grand reopening on September 19, when almost 5,000 visitors descended on the museum over the course of three days. I’m walking on air. Throngs of visitors came to the opening from all over the east coast, including collectors, curators, artists and museum directors. A Haitian man from East Hartford stopped to ask directions in the museum. He said his children, who had visited on earlier trips, just emailed him to come and see what was there.

After five years of partial closure as cranes hovered over our five new roofs, as master craftsmen re-created ornate moldings and workmen installed new clerestory windows in Morgan Great Hall, and as our art handlers moved thousands of objects into new, state-of-the-art storage, reinstalling the galleries as construction was completed, we reopened the museum to universal acclaim. Patricia Hickson, Emily Hall Tremaine Curator of Contemporary Art; Linda Roth, Charles C. and Eleanor Lamont Cunningham Curator of European Decorative Arts; and Oliver Tostmann, Susan Morse Hilles Curator of European Art, supported by Chief Curator and Krieble Curator of American Painting and Sculpture Robin Jaffee Frank, led the reinstallation plan. Together we realized our vision of galleries that integrated the decorative arts with painting and sculpture, telling the story of the artists who created the works and the patrons who used and commissioned them. Our belief in the transcendent power of art was realized in the dazzling new galleries created by architects at Smith Edwards McCoy. After the most comprehensive renovation and reinstallation of the collection in the Wadsworth Atheneum’s 173 year history, we are being lauded as one of America’s great museums.

As I prepare to retire at the end of the year, I am grateful to have had the opportunity to make my mark as the museum’s 10th director. I’m proud of the work that has transformed this storied institution, both physically and philosophically. Our generous board and dedicated staff were there every step of the way as we launched the Community Engagement Initiative seven years ago. Its impact has been deep and lasting, assuring our place in the community as welcoming and relevant to new audiences, from inner-city families to young, downtown workers. Jack Pierson’s newly commissioned work, spelling out the letters “OMG” in flashing lights has transformed our austere castle entrance on Main Street,

capturing the response of everyone who walks through those doors. Museum Susan L. Talbott educators and docents created a raft of new programs that brought greater Director and CEO

6 7 Hartford school children to the museum for new and innovative learning experiences. When school buses bring hundreds of previously underserved families to the museum on free Second Saturdays, they know that this is their place.

“European marvels await in Hartford,” proclaimed Sebastian Smee’s recent headline in The Boston Globe. Smee went on to praise our American art collection and postwar and contemporary collections as well. During my tenure we have added more than 500 artworks to these collections, from Richard Tuttle’s generous gift of Formal Narration, 1973–2014, to Artemisia Gentileschi’s Self Portrait as a Lute Player, 1615–18. They take pride of place in our new galleries. I have been fortunate to have had trustees who encouraged my own curatorial efforts, so I could organize four exhibitions during my tenure, including Patti Smith: Camera Solo in 2011 and Aspects of Portraiture, currently on view. And last year’s blockbuster, Coney Island: Visions of an American Dreamland continues to tour the country, opening in November at the Brooklyn Museum.

Although my hard hat was in place through most of my tenure, we never closed our doors, offering lively exhibitions and education programs. We balanced the budget and then some, with generous support from the State of Connecticut in the form of $25 million for the renovation, and the new–and unexpected–$9.6 million Charles H. Schwartz Endowment Fund for the acquisition of English or European artworks from the 18th century and earlier. Last November, when a generous donor presented a half-million dollar challenge to raise one million dollars by year end, we got to work and succeeded through the extraordinary generosity of our trustees.

Our staff was always creative and resilient, despite the many challenges of a museum under construction. I owe a particular debt of gratitude to the three Board Presidents under whom I have served: Coleman Casey, Susan Rottner, and for the past four years, David Dangremond. I will miss working with you and thank you all for your remarkable leadership these past eight years. My vision for the museum we have become would never have been possible without the steadfast support of each of our trustees and staff, of our members, volunteers, and generous patrons. I thank each and every one of you for giving me the opportunity to realize a dream.
