Daniel Brush Blue Steel Gold Light Dear Friends,

I am delighted to offer you a preview of our autumn exhibition program, one of the most exciting and provocative since our opening on Columbus Circle four years ago. Each exhibition reflects a facet of the MAD vision: the exploration of the creative intersections of art, craft, and design, the synergy between materials and process, and the celebration of exceptional craftsmanship around the globe.

A portrait of the extraordinary artist and polymath Daniel Brush appears on the cover of this issue of MADviews. Daniel Brush: Blue Steel Gold Light is the first holistic overview of Brush’s four-decade career. Working in meditative isolation in the midst of Manhattan, and mostly seen by private patrons, Brush’s work has been, until this exhibition, virtually Holly Hotchner off the radar screen of popular visual culture. From his intricate, large-scale ink drawings Nanette L. Laitman Director on paper to objets de vertu of turned ivory and gold granulation to tablets and sculpture carved in the intractable medium of industrial steel, this exhibition offers an intimate glimpse into the life of an artist whose work defies easy categorization and underscores Board of Trustees MAD’s commitment to discover and present the work of under-recognized talent. As a Lewis Kruger long time admirer of Daniel and his work, I am proud that MAD will unveil his astonishing Chairman and wide-ranging oeuvre to the public. Jerome A. Chazen Chairman Emeritus Barbara Tober MAD will open the fall season with the world premiere of Doris Duke’s Shangri La: Chairman Emerita Architecture, Landscape, and Islamic Art. The exhibition presents a selection of important Fred Kleisner Treasurer Islamic artworks from the spectacular Honolulu home of philanthropist and art collec- Linda E. Johnson tor Doris Duke, as well as new works by six important contemporary artists of Islamic Secretary background who were recently in residence there. Organized on the centenary of Duke’s Holly Hotchner Director birth, Doris Duke’s Shangri La features objects from her personal collection that have never been seen outside her storied Hawaiian getaway. To illuminate what guest curators Donald Diego Arria Albrecht and Thomas Mellins call the “inventive synthesis” of architecture, landscape, and Cecily Carson Simona Chazen Islamic art that Duke orchestrated (and which continues after her death through the artist Michele Cohen residency program), the exhibition displays a wealth of archival materials that record the Eric Dobkin conception of the house and gardens. Also on view are stunning, newly commissioned Marcia Docter photographs of Shangri La by the noted architectural photographer Tim Street-Porter. This C. Virginia Fields exhibition is an opportunity for MAD to show contemporary works inspired by a historic Carolee Friedlander environment, and the creative interactions between artists and patrons that have driven Kris Fuchs innovation and excellence in the arts.

In Hawaii, an Aesthetic Call and Response Between Islam and Islands On an around-the-world honeymoon in 1935, a 22-year-old Doris Duke became enthralled both by the achievements she saw in Islamic lands and the stunning natural beauty she encountered in Hawaii. When she returned home, the heiress known as “the world’s richest girl” decided to build a residence in Honolulu that would manifest the essence of those contrasting cultures: Hawaiian and Islamic. What Duke came up with—in collaboration with Palm Beach architect Marion Sims Wyeth, who incorporated elements of the then emerging International Style—is the singular and spectacular five-acre estate she dubbed Shangri La. In celebration of the centenary of the birth of this broadly appreciative art-lover, devoted gardener, and philanthropist, MAD will present Doris Duke’s Shangri La: Architecture, Landscape, and Islamic Art this September. The exhibition explores what MAD’s guest curators Donald Albrecht and Thomas Mellins call the “inventive synthesis” that Duke brought into being. Objects from Duke’s personal collection of Islamic art—never before seen outside Shangri La— make up one portion of the exhibition, supplemented with archival architectural sketches and personal photographs. Also on view will be newly commissioned photos of Shangri La by acclaimed photographer Tim Street-Porter along with artworks in a variety of media by six contemporary artists who have spent time at the magnificent estate, thanks to the residency program established after Duke’s death in 1993. One of those artists, Afruz Amighi, shared with MADviews some reflections on her time at Shangri La and her creative process.

a new art form is in the air

November promises to be a historic month for MAD as it will mark the opening of The Art of Scent, 1889–2012, the first museum exhibition to explore the design and aesthetics of olfactory art through twelve pivotal fragrances that have profoundly influenced the course of the medium. The exhibition begins with Jicky, one of the earliest fragrances to take advantage of synthetic molecules in its construction, which was introduced to the public in 1889. For Chandler Burr, MAD’s Curator of Olfactory Art, the use of synthetic molecules revolutionized the field of fragrance, because it freed its perfumers from the constraints of all-natural materials and opened up an entirely new world of creative possibility. Above all, it enabled perfumers to become artists.

Up until then, perfume making had been a powerful proto-art. For centuries, from the Renaissance to the Victorian age, scents had been fashioned from raw organic materi- als. The highest aim of European perfumers was to take floral essences and embellish them with spices and other natural extracts to mimic nature. Perfumery was purely representational. Here was the enhanced scent of a peony. There was the modulated scent of a violet. Fragrances were re-creations. They were not art.

Chandler Burr maintains that “art is synthesized. It is wonderfully artificial,” adding “It can be assembled from colors, tastes, textures, sounds, words, scents and arranged to generate specific emotions on the part of an audience—fear, love, rage, joy, pity. The artistic mind says, ‘I will make you feel or know something you have never experienced before.’”

This new artistic credo began about 130 years ago, when Houbigant’s Paul Parquet first used a synthetic material, coumarin, a molecule that has a taffylike, marzipan smell, in his formula of woody, citrus, and lavender extracts to fashion “Fougère Royale” (Royal Fern). This was a scent that did not exist in nature—ferns have no smell—but as Parquet famously said, presaging the postmodernism that would embrace this philosophy a century later, “If God had given ferns a scent, they would smell like Fougère Royale.”

Seven years later, Aimé Guerlain, a second-generation perfumer, mixed coumarin and ethyl vanillin—with natural raw materials to create the landmark Jicky. This use of synthetics and new technologies freed the artist from nature, thus Jicky is considered the first “modern” fragrance.

This exciting new work of olfactory construction was launched the same year that Gustave Eiffel completed his iron marvel of engineering for the Universal Exposition in Paris, during an era filled with rapidly changing and competing artistic styles as well as bold innovations in science and technology. When Guerlain was a young man, Jean-Auguste Ingres, the great defender of French neoclassicism, was painting, as was Eugène Delacroix, the champion of the French Romantic school, and Paris was being modernized by George-Eugène Haussmann. Under the classical mansard roofs of this new city, a glittering turn-of-the century bourgeois society emerged, for which Guerlain honed his art and on whom he had a profound impact.

The genius of Jicky was that it had no reference in nature. This is not only crucial to the full legitimacy of scent as an artistic medium, it is also the defining quality of the art of the age. Edgar Degas, born the same year as Guerlain and a fellow avant-garde artist, once remarked to a fellow painter, “A vous, il faut la vie naturelle, à moi la vie factice.” [You need the natural life, but for me, the artificial.”]

Sebastian Errazuriz, whose work is featured in Against The Grain, is one of the most provocative young designers working today. Dividing his time between his native Chile and his studio in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, he creates work that transcends boundaries both geographic and technical, and is not afraid to cause controversy. In June 2012 he welcomed MAD Curator Lowery Stokes Sims and Natalya Mills, her intern, into his studio for a conversation.

ARTS REACH: MAD’S Newest Education Initiative One of the great challenges for educators in the New York City public school system is the lack of funds to provide students with vital instruction in the visual arts. Numerous studies show that art instruction not only enriches young minds, but also enhances academic performance. That’s why for 15 years now, MAD has addressed this challenge by providing art instruction to as many public school students as possible through MADlab, a program combining specially tailored exhibition tours with hands-on art-making sessions in the Sarah and Seth Glickenhaus Education Center. Arts Reach is one of the many education programs supported through the advocacy of the Museum’s dedicated Education Committee, chaired by Cecily Carson.

LISA HERBERT It’s a colorful life for Lisa Herbert. The daughter of Lawrence Herbert, the founder of Pantone, she serves as the company’s Vice President for Fashion and Home. Herbert has helped launch a series of successful initiatives for the family firm, chief among them Pantone’s first Textile Color System, which was quickly embraced by the fashion and interior industries; the Pantone Color Award, for employing color in creative ways; and the semi-annual Pantone Fashion Color Report, which has become the definitive industry guide to seasonal color trends. Her latest initiative, she says, is “to take color to another level, from romancing the design world to engage the everday consumer directly.” We think that harmonizes perfectly with one of MAD’s own mission to connect with the public through contemporary creation. So as far as we’re concerned, we couldn’t have found a better match! Herbert and her husband, Ricardo Winter, live in the city with their three-year-old son.

MICHAEL JESSELSON After launching his career as a trader at such prestigious firms as Philipp Brothers and Salomon Brothers, Michael Jesselson moved into private investing. Among his early investments was ICQ/Mirabilis, where he was a founding funder of this early Israeli Internet company, which was later bought by AOL. He also serves on a number of corporate boards, most notably American Eagle Outfitters and XPO Logistics. Jesselson and his family have a demonstrated talent and passion for philanthropy, and he is active in a wide range of Jewish philanthropic and educational endeavors, both in the U.S. and in Israel.

New Staff Members

AMY VAN RY Every museum wants to cultivate greater institutional support, so who better to do our cultivation than a woman with serious expertise in gardens? Amy van Ry, our new Senior Director of Institutional Giving, has nearly 20 years experience in development, most recently as Director of Institutional Funding at Brooklyn Botanic Garden, a post she held for five years. Her background includes works with national and international environmental organizations, including the Rainforest Alliance and National Audubon Society, as well as arts organizations and independent schools. She has a B.A. in art history from Carleton College and attended graduate school in landscape architecture at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, where she was recipient of the Kluesing Prize for high artistic merit in a design portfolio. Van Ry is thrilled to be joining the team at the Museum of Arts and Design, with its unique commitment to contemporary creativity, and looks forward to raising a bumper crop of support.

LAUREN GIBBS In her decade-long career, Lauren Gibbs has worked magic in development for dance, theater, classical music, and multi-disciplinary nonprofits. Most recently she was Development Director at José Limón Dance Foundation, and before, that Deputy Development Director at Ballet Hispanico. So passionate is she about dance that in her free time she provides fundraising guidance to emerging companies. To judge from her education, it’s no wonder that she’s proved such a business whiz. She obtained a dual bachelors degree in Dance/Theater and International Business/French from James Madison University in Harrisburg, Va., before earning a Master’s in Performing Arts Administration from N.Y.U. Gibbs is excited about making her first foray into the world of art and design as our new Associate V.P. of Development, Membership and Individual Giving, and we’re betting she’ll show us some new tricks.

Member Trip to the Hamptons

On Friday, July 27, the Museum hosted a wonderful summer day trip to Southampton for 26 of our members. The full-day excur- sion featured an array of cultural activities, including a visit to the home and studio of artist Hope Sandrow, the Parrish Art Museum, ArtSouthampton art fair, and Ellen & Jerome L. Stern’s artbarn!

Hope’s Open Air studio is an ever-evolving art installation that encompasses her stunning home, work space, expansive garden, and coops with over forty Paduan chickens. We also saw one of Hope’s beautifully crafted chicken coops, which will be featured in MAD’s upcoming exhibition Against the Grain: Wood in Contemporary Art, Craft and Design.

eoff G eoff A Gem of a Guy!

reen Since he was a teenager, Ed Brickman has loved to make jewelry. In the early 1950s, when he was a young man, this native New Yorker spent time working for a professional jeweler. He quickly realized, though, that sitting all day at a jeweler’s bench making someone else’s designs wouldn’t fulfill his creative yearn- ings. What’s more, the work was largely solitary, and if anyone is a people person, it is Ed Brickman.

And so, as one thing leads to another in life and suddenly a trajectory comes into place. Ed Brickman eventually set up a business importing and distributing nuts, bolts, and screws, and before long, he became financially successful. Although his flourishing company satisfied his entrepreneurial spirit, it did not lessen his desire to be creative. He continued to make his singular jewelry and over time mastered the art of forged metal jewelry. Now several examples of his remarkable work are part of MAD’s collection. These days semi-retired, he continues to fashion pieces and also shares his know-how by teaching jewelry making in the Museum’s Open Studios and at Ringling College of Art and Design.

If you talk to Ed Brickman about his life, you will discover a man truly grateful for his many blessings, which include a long, loving marriage to his late wife, Alice, wonderful children and grandchildren, a prosperous business, great friends, and the opportunity to express his creativity through jewelry designs. As a couple, Ed and Alice always believed that it was important to give back to others, which is why this year Ed Brickman made a significant capital gift to name MAD’s fourth–floor north gallery the Alice and Ed Brickman Gallery. This extraordinarily big-hearted gesture will recognize Ed and Alice Brickman’s legacy of arts involvement and support for generations to come.
