  • Position Specification
    Position Specification Honolulu Museum of Art Director Position Specification Director Honolulu Museum of Art The Client The Honolulu Museum of Art (HoMA) was founded in 1927 by Anna Rice Cooke, the daughter of a prominent missionary family. She married Charles Montague Cooke, also of a prominent missionary family, and settled in Honolulu, building a home in 1882 on Beretania Street, where HoMA resides today. From the beginning, Anna Rice Cooke, who spoke fluent Hawaiian, wanted a Museum that reflected the unique attributes of Hawai’i’s multicultural makeup. Not bound by the traditional western idea of art Museums, she also wanted to create an institution that showcased the island’s natural beauty and climate in an open and airy environment. Her thoughtful consideration is evidenced in the charming courtyards that interconnect the various galleries throughout the Museum. The permanent collection has grown from 500 works to more than 50,000 pieces spanning 5,000 years. The Museum has one of the largest single collections of Asian and Pan-Pacific art in the United States, including an unrivaled collection by artists of Hawai’i and the Pacific. The collection also contains significant holdings in American and European painting and decorative arts, 19th- and 20th-century art, an extensive collection of works on paper, Asian textiles, and traditional works from Africa, Oceania, and the Americas. Other highlights include the Samuel H. Kress collection of Italian Renaissance paintings and the James A. Michener collection of ukiyo-e prints. HoMA is dedicated to the collection, preservation, interpretation and teaching of the visual arts, and the presentation of exhibitions, performing arts and public programs specifically relevant to Hawai’i’s ethnically diverse community.

  • Missionary Contributions to Hawaiian Natural History: What Darwin Didn't Know
    E. ALISON KAY Missionary Contributions to Hawaiian Natural History: What Darwin Didn't Know It is with great pleasure that we add our warm commendation of the late effort of the missionaries. Situated in a remote island, in the vast expanse of the Pacific intensely and ardently occupied in their great object, the moral improvement and civilization of the natives; remote from the lights of science, and subjected to the physical privations both frequent and severe, we certainly owe them many thanks for the great amount of valuable information which they have, incidentally, contributed, on the subject of the natural history of one of the most remarkable volcanic regions in the world. Benjamin Silliman (1826) THE ROLE OF THE AMERICAN MISSIONARIES and their descendants in the history of the Hawaiian Islands has been told in many differ- ent ways: in their own journals, letters, and autobiographies and in biographies and analyses of their educational motives, churchly objectives, and family life. One role has received virtually no atten- tion, their contributions to knowledge of Hawaiian natural history. Charles Darwin's comment to Joseph Dalton Hooker in 1850, "of all places in the world I would like to see a good flora of the Sandwich islands. I would subscribe 50 pounds to any collector to go there and work at these islands,"1 suggests that even Darwin, who had read everything there was to read about the Pacific,2 failed to recognize that the missionaries, who had arrived in Hawai'i a decade before E. Alison Kay is professor of zoology at the University of Hawai'i at Manoa and an associ- ate editor of the Journal.

They stretch from east-southeast to west-north­ west for a distance of 1660 nautical miles (1900 statute; 3057.74 kilomet- ers) or more, from the southeast side of Hawaii to beyond Midway and Kure. Each time a survey ship makes soundings along this strip it adds new sub­ merged peaks to the chain. We may divide the islands of the Hawaiian chain into three areas: (1) the eight main islands at the southeastern end; (2) the small rocky islets in the middle; and (3) the low sand and coral islands of the northwestern end.
