ANNUAL REPORT 2006/2007 Mission Statement ANNUAL REPORT 2006/2007 Mission Statement The Samuel P. Harn Museum of Art promotes the power of the arts to inspire and educate people and enrich their lives. To this purpose the museum builds and maintains exemplary art collections and produces a wide variety of challenging, innovative exhibitions and stimulating educational programs. As an integral part of the University of Florida, the museum advances teaching and research and serves as a catalyst for creative engagement between the university and diverse local, state, national and Director’s Message international audiences. After closing all museum galleries, with the exception of the Mary Ann Harn Cofrin Pavilion, for renovation during summer 2006, the museum reopened fall semester with beautifully refinished stone and hardwood floors, new carpet and freshly painted walls. The museum was able for the first time to dedicate a gallery to the permanent collection of photography alongside other galleries for the African, Asian, modern and contemporary art collections. During fiscal year 2006-2007 the Harn originated several exhibitions with accompanying catalogues, beginning with Spinach Green and Mutton-fat White: Chinese Jades of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) organized by Curator of Asian Art Charles Mason, and Resonance and Inspiration: New Works by Magdalene Odundo organized by Curator of African Art Susan Cooksey, which opened at the Harn and traveled to the Hood Museum of Art at Dartmouth College. Jointly curated by Professor Achamyeleh Debela of North Carolina Central University and I, Continuity and Change: Three Generations of Ethiopian Artists traveled from the Harn to the Diggs Gallery at Winston-Salem State University. Finally, Cuba Avant-Garde: Contemporary Cuban Art from the Farber Collection, organized by Curator of Contemporary Art Kerry Oliver-Smith, opened here and continued to the Ringling Museum of Art in Sarasota, the first in a series of venues for this exhibition. The Harn Museum of Art AFRICAN ASIAN MODERN PHOTOGRAPHY CONTEMPORARY joined other University of 2 6 8 10 12 Florida and community museums to host the Florida Association of Museums annual meeting in September 2006, welcoming colleagues from across the state to Gainesville. During spring semester 2007 the Harn joined UF’s College of Fine Arts, School of Art and Art History and Center for African Studies in hosting the Triennial Symposium of the Arts Council of the African Studies Association, an international conference with more than 300 participants.

Oral history is a modern research technique involving an interviewee and an informed interviewer in spontaneous conversation. The taped record is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee.

Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ************************************ All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and Kay Sekimachi dated April 16, 1995.

It came to itself and is for this moment without him or her, not brought about by him or her but is itself and in this sudden seeing of itself, we make the final choice. What if it has come to be without external to us and what we read it to be then and heighten it toward that reading? If we were to leave it alone at this point of itself, our eyes aging would no longer be able to see it. External and forget the internal ordering that brought it about and without the final decision of what that ordering was about and our emphasis of it, other eyes would miss the chosen point and feel the lack of emphasis.

  • Press Release (PDF)
    G A G O S I A N G A L L E R Y August 29, 2016 The critic and curator Philip Rawson, an eloquent guide to the means and methods of drawing over the ages, points out that until the Italian Quattrocento, no European sculptor was supposed to be able to draw. In the medieval period, only those sculptors who also worked in two dimensions drew habitually; any other sculptor who needed, say, to show a client a proposed design hired a draftsman to make one. And when sculptors began to make drawings (for their own use or to guide assistants), they tended to do so without thinking of the format of the paper as a frame to which the image should relate. Instead, the image was generally treated as an independent motif, composed of mutually related units and placed anywhere on the sheet. In this approach, the space of the paper outside the image was not incorporated into the design but functioned like the open, empty space around actual sculptures. ... In contrast, Rawson observes, painters' drawings have tended to treat the usually rectangular format of the paper as a frame to which the image content relates. —John Elderfield Gagosian Gallery is pleased to present “Plane.Site,” a cross-generational exhibition of modern and contemporary artists organized by Sam Orlofsky to inaugurate the San Francisco gallery.

Courtesy the artist. Photo: Amunga Eshuchi. Right: The Otolith Group, Hydra Decapita (film still), 2010. Courtesy the artists New York, NY, July 9, 2013—This fall, The Studio Museum in Harlem is thrilled to present The Shadows Took Shape, a dynamic interdisciplinary exhibition exploring contemporary art through the lens of Afrofuturist aesthetics. Coined in 1994 by writer Mark Dery in his essay “Black to the Future,” the term “Afrofuturism” refers to a creative and intellectual genre that emerged as a strategy to explore science fiction, fantasy, magical realism and pan-Africanism. With roots in the avant-garde musical stylings of sonic innovator Sun Ra (born Herman Poole Blount, 1914–1993), Afrofuturism has been used by artists, writers and theorists as a way to prophesize the future, redefine the present and reconceptualize the past. The Shadows Took Shape will be one of the few major museum exhibitions to explore the ways in which this form of creative expression has been adopted internationally and highlight the range of work made over the past twenty-five years. On view at The Studio Museum in Harlem from November 14, 2013 to March 9, 2014, the exhibition draws its title from an obscure Sun Ra poem and a posthumously released series of recordings.
