    The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston Arts, Fine of Museum The μ˙ μ˙ μ˙ The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston annual report 2013–2014 THE MUSEUM OF FINE ARTS, HOUSTON, WARMLY THANKS THE 1,183 DOCENTS, VOLUNTEERS, AND MEMBERS OF THE MUSEUM’S GUILD FOR THEIR EXTRAORDINARY DEDICATION AND COMMITMENT. ANNUAL REPORT ANNUAL 2013–2014 Cover: GIUSEPPE PENONE Italian, born 1947 Albero folgorato (Thunderstuck Tree), 2012 Bronze with gold leaf 433 1/16 x 96 3/4 x 79 in. (1100 x 245.7 x 200.7 cm) Museum purchase funded by the Caroline Wiess Law Accessions Endowment Fund 2014.728 While arboreal imagery has dominated Giuseppe Penone’s sculptures across his career, monumental bronzes of storm- blasted trees have only recently appeared as major themes in his work. Albero folgorato (Thunderstuck Tree), 2012, is the culmination of this series. Cast in bronze from a willow that had been struck by lightning, it both captures a moment in time and stands fixed as a profoundly evocative and timeless monument. ALG Opposite: LYONEL FEININGER American, 1871–1956 Self-Portrait, 1915 Oil on canvas 39 1/2 x 31 1/2 in. (100.3 x 80 cm) Museum purchase funded by the Caroline Wiess Law Accessions Endowment Fund 2014.756 Lyonel Feininger’s 1915 self-portrait unites the psychological urgency of German Expressionism with the formal structures of Cubism to reveal the artist’s profound isolation as a man in self-imposed exile, an American of German descent, who found himself an alien enemy living in Germany at the outbreak of World War I.

  • Thanks for Sticking It to Hunger
    A Member of Feeding America Thanks for sticking it to hunger. 2011 Annual Report Close the Gap Year 3 of 3 2011 Annual Report : Close the Gap Year 3 of 3 Imagine...A World Without Hunger. 2011 Annual Report : Close the Gap Year 3 of 3 A MESSAGE FROM OUR BOARD PRESIDENT Dear Friend, The past year has been one of significant achievement for the North Texas Food Bank, even in the face of very challenging circumstances. I feel privileged to serve as Chairman of the Board during a time of such innovation and strategic thinking. I can confidently say that this kind of high-level thinking around the problem of food-insecurity has generated some of the best hunger-fighting tactics in the country. Fiscal Year 2011 marked the successful completion of our three-year strategic plan, Close the Gap. This campaign aimed to unite the community in order to narrow the food gap by providing access to 50 million meals annually. I’m pleased to tell you that with the generous support of individuals, corporations, foundations, faith groups, students and friends in the community, we were able to exceed our goal, providing access to 50.5 million meals! We’re proud of the collaborative efforts of our supporters. More than 32,500 donors made contributions, over 25,000 individuals volunteered to help fight hunger, 160 local grocery stores invited daily food donation pick-ups by Food Bank vehicles, and our 300 Member Agencies worked tirelessly to get people the food they needed. Close the Gap was a great success, but unfortunately, hunger in our community is still widespread.

  • Thanks for Sticking It to Hunger
    A Member of Feeding America Thanks for sticking it to hunger. 2010 ANNUAL REPORT CLOSE THE GAP YEAR 2 OF 3 2010 AnnuA l RepoR t : Close the GA p Ye AR 2 of 3 2 Imagine...A World Without Hunger. 2010 AnnuA l RepoR t : Close the GA p Ye AR 2 of 3 2010 AnnuA l RepoR t : Close the GA p Ye AR 2 of 3 A MESSAGE FROM OUR BOARD PRESIDENT Dear North Texas Food Bank Friends and Supporters, It’s hard to summarize the second year of the North Texas Food Bank’s Close the Gap campaign. With the shifting economic climate, changing unemployment rate and ever- growing number of North Texans at risk of going hungry, it’s easy to simply focus on the overwhelming need. Indeed, the need is great. The unemployment rate in Texas jumped to the highest it’s ever been – 8.6 percent – in January. Thousands of hard-working North Texans have been forced out of jobs they’ve had for years and are now unable to provide for their families. Seniors citizens who have worked hard their whole lives now have only a meager Social Security check on which to live. Children, through no fault of their own, are going to bed hungry because their parents can’t afford to buy groceries. So many of our neighbors are struggling – but the North Texas Food Bank is doing everything in its power to provide food to those who need it most. Thanks to the generous support of corporations, foundations, faith groups and friends like you, we distributed an incredible 43.7 million meals to hungry people during the second year of our Close the Gap campaign.
