a message FROM THE CHAIR

Gary Davis addresses the Museum Advisory Council in front of Brushstrokes on Rainbow Diptych by Pat Steir (see page 18) following a tour of the reinstalled first-floor galleries at the spring Council meeting in Ithaca.

As I reflect on the past year at the Johnson Museum and the conclusion of Cornell’s Sesquicentennial, I feel great pride in the accomplishments that my fellow Council members and I have had the opportunity to experience firsthand.

The Museum Advisory Council plays a key role in supporting the many facets of the Johnson, and it is a privilege to be part of a group that cares deeply for Cornell and truly understands the mission of an academic museum set within a great university. Our enthusiasm for the Museum has led Advisory Council members to endow curatorial positions, support innovative exhibitions, invite distinguished artists and scholars to campus, and passionately help the permanent collection to flourish and evolve with gifts of artworks and funds to purchase art.

Significant and sustained gifts such as these lead the way to the launch of new initiatives. This report highlights the importance of collections in all we do: how the Museum challenges itself to find creative ways to display artworks, and, importantly, how art can encourage audiences to take journeys that can be personally rewarding—even life-changing.

It is in this spirit that we dedicate this year’s annual report to Steven Ames ’63. A former chair of this Council from 1996 to 2001, Steven passed away on March 12, 2016. His long service as a Council member, and his influential term as chair, were coupled with extraordinary generosity to the Museum. He and his family enabled the endowment of the Harriett Ames Charitable Trust Curator of Education, a position long held by Cathy Klimaszewski, and provided funds for exhibitions and educational programming.

Steven was an extraordinary patron of the arts and a passionate collector of postwar and contemporary art. Through transformative gifts of contemporary photographs by artists including Gregory Crewdson, Rineke Dijkstra, Olafur Eliasson, Candida Höfer, David Levinthal, Richard Misrach, Shirin Neshat, Thomas Struth, and Eve Sussman, many of which were on view in Staged, Performed, Manipulated during the spring (see page 37), Steven raised the level of the Johnson’s photography collection. His remarkable ability to identify new talent and select exceptionally strong works tremendously enhanced the significance of the Museum’s photography collection and changed the way the medium is taught and experienced at the Johnson.

These gifts have also played an important role in developing our most recent major initiative, to create an expanded and unique photography program for the Museum. With strong and enthusiastic support of Advisory Council members and other generous donors, the Museum is currently in the early stages of creating a first-class storage facility for our photography collection and will soon expand its exhibition, teaching, and research in this area.

We honor Steven for his many significant contributions and look forward to the year ahead with a sense of true excitement.

FROM THE DIRECTOR

Cornell’s Sesquicentennial provided a wonderful occasion to pause and recognize the university’s great contributions and remarkable development over the past 150 years. The Johnson Museum celebrated this milestone with exhibitions and programs, all while reflecting on our continuing responsibility to enhance and expand the vital role of the visual arts in teaching, learning, and enjoyment at Cornell and beyond. This annual report provides an overview of the Museum’s most notable contributions during this very special year.

The preeminent project we undertook was to continue—and complete—the reinstallation of all of the permanent collection galleries. We’ve been thrilled to hear from so many visitors that the Museum has been “transformed” and that the “collections look superb” in their new contexts. Even the most casual visitor to these pages will understand that collecting, presenting, interpreting, and preserving art remains the focus of all we do. When thoughtfully presented, art tells stories and encourages visitors to ask questions. It can even evoke physical responses, as seen on page 9, where a student mimics the pose of Giacometti’s Walking Man II.

Exciting permanent collection galleries, however, are never static. Aesthetic revisions and new acquisitions happen continuously. These changes provide a window to understanding the ways that a museum’s collection is built and

how we seek to expand audiences’ experiences of art, both past and present. Our new acquisitions are carefully chosen in the context of the existing collection, research, and partnerships in collaboration with faculty. At times, they can even respond to changes within the university curriculum.

Newly acquired art often builds on existing collection strengths, as with the addition of Rembrandt’s important portrait of Clemente de Jonghe. Other acquisitions, such as those of works by Christian Houge and Anna Betbeze that were included in 2014’s beyond earth art, respond to research connected with temporary exhibitions. Artist visits, too, provide opportunities, including our first acquisition of work by El Anatsui, whom the Museum invited to speak in October 2014. Pamela Corey, a PhD candidate in the Department of the History of Art and Visual Studies, worked with our chief curator, Ellen Avril, to organize a symposium on Vietnamese ceramics in April 2015. Pamela’s work with Ellen led to the acquisition of several contemporary Vietnamese works.

But if I had to highlight just one of the Johnson’s many strengths, I would choose our ability to be resourceful and nimble when responding to opportunities. An excellent example in this particular year was a loan from the Leiden Collection. The opportunity to borrow this group of works, generously assisted by Professor Richard Johnson, rapidly turned into a remarkable yearlong exhibition,

An Eye for Detail, which provided the framework to develop three new Museum courses, culminating in the innovative Spring 2014 class “Art | Science Intersections.” This not only jump-started new collaborations with the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering, but further developed the Museum’s relationship with other units across campus.

This project—and many others the Museum has undertaken over the past year—brings to mind a comment that Angelica Rudenstine made to me many years ago, during her tenure at the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. Angelica said that the programs she helped to develop for college and university art museums sprang from her deep desire to ensure that a museum is never considered an “extra” on campus, but rather a vital resource for every student and faculty member, as critical to the syllabus as the library. Everything that we do, she believed, should be integrated into the intellectual fabric of the institutions we serve.

I have never forgotten Angelica’s dedication to this aspect of museums and am proud that so many of the Johnson Museum’s programs reflect this philosophy. I’m grateful to have this opportunity to thank you, our loyal supporters, for your generosity to the Johnson Museum and all that we strive to achieve.

our MISSION“ Bringing Art and People Together” The Herbert F. Johnson Museum of Art is committed to serving a diverse audience and cultivating a wide range of partnerships that inspire creative ways to link objects and ideas for the education and enjoyment of all. The Museum preserves, documents, interprets, and makes accessible its collections for the benefit of current and future generations of museum visitors. By providing wide access to original works of art from different cultural traditions and time periods, the Museum connects audiences with art of the past and helps them explore new directions in contemporary art. Since its founding in 1973, the Museum has been open to all free of charge.

reimagining the COLLECTION

In 2011, the Johnson Museum received a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts to support the reinstallation and reinterpretation of the permanent collection of European and American art. The final phases of this project were completed with the reinstallation of the four first-floor galleries in October 2014 and the debut of the Libshutz Family Mezzanine Gallery for decorative art in May 2015. Some of our greatest and best-loved works from the nineteenth, twentieth, and twenty-first centuries were placed in newly renovated galleries and in entirely distinct contexts.

The curators in charge of these collections—Nancy E. Green, the Gale and Ira Drukier Curator of European and American Art, Prints & Drawings, 1800–1945, and Andrea Inselmann, curator of modern and contemporary art & photography—led important Museum-wide conversations about how to best achieve a balance of aesthetics and legibility throughout and maximize the number of works on view.

We think the result offers not only an imaginative new look but truly highlights the strength and impact of the collection for all audiences. Visitors can quickly and easily absorb an overall impression of the diversity of Western art made from 1800 onward. Gallery adjacencies were carefully planned to make chronological, cultural, and historic connections, although visitors are invited to navigate the galleries at their own pace and study the art on view from their own personal vantage point.

Now all of our permanent collection galleries aim to take visitors on rewarding journeys that are visually pleasing and full of variety. Since the Johnson opened in 1973, our collection has been enriched by many generous gifts of art, along with funds provided to allow for important curatorial purchases to build the strength and significance of Museum collections. Thanks to the generosity of Museum Members and donors, and major grants from the National Endowment for the Humanities and the National Endowment for the Arts, three complete floors of beautifully renovated galleries provide a fresh overview of the collection, one that we hope will provoke your curiosity and encourage you to visit, whether for the first time or as an old friend!

The Richard F. Tucker ’50 and Genevieve M. Tucker Gallery showcases contemporary art, including the recently restored Flit (1959) by Lee Bontecou.

The reinstallation of the Elizabeth Heekin Harris and Alan B. Harris Gallery created a new context for some of our most famous works, including Alberto Giacometti’s Walking Man II, exploring the human figure and portraiture.

Bold by Design: Art Quilts from the Collection of John M. Walsh III

July 5–August 17, 2014

Bold by Design was drawn from the collection of John M. Walsh III, Class of 1958, who gave a talk at the Museum on July 12 (at left, center). Jack’s collection is widely known for its quality and range, composed of quilts created by many of the best artists in the field. The abstract quilts on view were a small subset of Jack’s collection, chosen for their bold design and inventive use of color.

The artists included in Bold by Design chose the medium because they were drawn to the creative possibilities and tactile qualities of fabric. Among the artists represented were Nancy Crow, Michael James, and Pamela Studstill, all seminal figures in the art quilt movement.

Curated by the Johnson’s Cathy Rosa Klimaszewski (above, center), the exhibition was complemented by selections from the Johnson’s own collection of antique quilts (at left) and twentieth-century prints that share a visual kinship with the designs.

EXHIBITIONS and PROGRAMS

Page 31: JOHNSON MUSEUM OF ART › sites › default › files › HFJ... · final phases of this project were completed with the reinstallation of the four first-floor galleries in October

Magic-themed works of art by Kurt Seligmann, rare books on magic and witchcraft from Seligmann’s library (acquired by Cornell upon the artist’s death in 1962), and drawings, collages, and paintings by other surrealists and artists in their circle examined how history drove the surrealists to seek a magical presence in the world.

The exhibition was supported in part by the French Studies Program and with the cooperation and support of the Seligmann Center for the Arts. It also traveled to the Boca Raton Museum of Art in 2015.

Multimedia works by thirty-three artists from several generations revealed ways Taiwan has been altered by globalization. The connotations of jie, the Chinese character meaning scope or boundary, provided a fluid theme uniting art that examines how both a nation and its individuals navigate and negotiate today’s interconnected world.

This exhibition, jointly organized by the Johnson Museum and the National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts, was curated by An-yi Pan, associate professor in the Department of the History of Art and Visual Studies at Cornell, assisted by the Johnson’s Ellen Avril. Major support for the exhibition and catalogue was provided by the Ministry of Culture, Republic of China (Taiwan). Additional support for the exhibition and symposium was provided by the E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Foundation, the Judith Stoikov ’63 Asian Art Lecture Endowment at the Johnson Museum, and the Cornell East Asia Program.

The Johnson hosted an artists’ forum and symposium on September 6, cosponsored by the East Asia Program with additional support provided by the Stoikov Asian Art Lecture Endowment.

An Eye for Detail: Dutch Painting from the Leiden Collection

September 20, 2014–June 21, 2015

This two-semester exhibition of paintings and a Rembrandt drawing came from the New York–based Leiden Collection, among the most important private collections of seventeenth-century Dutch art in the world. An Eye for Detail was curated by the Johnson’s Andrew Weislogel and Lisa Pincus, visiting assistant professor in the Department of the History of Art and Visual Studies. The exhibition and its accompanying programs were made possible through the generosity of Helen-Mae and Seymour R. Askin, Jr. ’47, and of Joseph W. Simon ’80 and Ernest F. Steiner ’63 in honor of Vera C. Simon ’55.

The exhibition was part of the Museum’s “Connecting Research with Practice” initiative, supported by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. The yearlong visit of these works facilitated interdisciplinary study through the intersection of art history and science, including research on thread counting in historic canvases and the search for buried pigments using X-ray fluorescence mapping.

Above: Leiden Collection curator Dr. Dominique Nicole Surh gave a gallery talk on March 26.

Center: Jennifer Mass, PhD ’95, senior conservation scientist at the Winterthur Museum, Delaware, shared her research on the Johnson’s Rembrandt School painting, Still Life of Dead Game, with the class and at a public lecture on April 9.

A series of free public lectures were held in conjunction with a new course, “Art | Science Intersections,” a collaboration between the Johnson, the Department of the History of Art and Visual Studies, the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering, and CHESS.

On September 30, Frank Robinson, former director of the Museum and a scholar of seventeenth-century Dutch art, gave an exhibition tour exclusively for Johnson Museum Members.

On November 20, Arthur Wheelock, curator of Northern Baroque paintings at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC, presented a public lecture, “The Myth of the ‘Leiden School’: There Was No Such Thing.”

On February 26, Angela Campbell, assistant paper conservator at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, discussed pursuing a career as a conservator of works on paper.

We are grateful for the contributions of Professor Pincus; C. Richard Johnson, Jr., Hedrick Senior Professor of Engineering; Dr. Arthur Woll, Cornell High Energy Synchrotron Source (CHESS) senior research scientist; and Professor Sturt Manning, director of the Cornell Tree Ring Laboratory, for their contributions to this special project.

At right: Conservation scientist John Twilley and the students from “Art | Science Intersections” examined paintings included in the exhibition.

January 24–April 12, 2015

Departing from Enrique Chagoya’s suite of etchings Homage to Goya II: Disasters of War as a visual and conceptual anchor, this exhibition examined hidden elements and unexpected connections among some of the Johnson’s holdings. One print from the suite, Esta no lo es menos (This is no less curious), provided the inspiration to approach the collection with an exploratory sense of curiosity. Both Chagoya’s practice and the double meaning of the word “curious”—strange and unusual, or eager and inquisitive—guided the selection of objects under the themes of material and historical ties, educational uses, and ownership histories to illustrate the museum as a continuing site of exploration, teaching, and research.

Cocurated by three members of the Johnson’s staff—curatorial assistant Sonja Gandert, provenance researcher Alexandra Palmer, and Andrew W. Mellon Curatorial Coordinator for Academic Programs Alana Ryder—this exhibition was supported in part by the Donald and Maria Cox Exhibition Endowment and realized through a collaboration with interns, student docents, and members of the History of Art Majors’ Society and the Museum Club who participated in a series of “Collection Spotlights” in Spring 2014.

The three curators incorporated the exhibition into the Johnson’s semester of teaching, and published a 16-page exhibition brochure.

On February 12, Lexie Palmer discussed provenance research issues before a screening of the 2014 documentary Art and Craft.

“This is no less curious”: Journeys through the Collection

Page 37: JOHNSON MUSEUM OF ART › sites › default › files › HFJ... · final phases of this project were completed with the reinstallation of the four first-floor galleries in October

At right: Students in the writing course “Delve Deeper: Research Methods in the Humanities, Arts, and Social Sciences” study Chagoya’s El regreso del caníbal macrobíotico (The Return of the Macrobiotic Cannibal) as part of their look at ways research is conducted in museums and by artists when they create their work.

Alana Ryder was joined by Gregory Page, associate professor of print media and drawing in the Department of Art; Jane Marie Law, associate professor of Japanese religions in the Department of Asian Studies; and Valeria Dani, PhD student in the Department of Romance Studies, to share stories of teaching with the Johnson’s collection in a gallery talk on March 5.

Artist Alison Saar (with the cocurators, center) discussed her work in conjunction with the exhibition on March 12. The public lecture was funded in part by a grant from the Cornell Council for the Arts.

On March 19, Sonja Gandert gave a gallery talk and introduced a workshop and performance of salsa and Afro-Cuban dance, percussion, and song with ¡Pa’lante! (below)

The Museum and Tompkins Connect cohosted a networking event, “Good Taste,” for young professionals in conjunction with this exhibition on April 2. The event included a reading by 2014 Ithaca Festival Poet Alex Chertok and a performance by pianist David Friend, a graduate student in the Department of Music. Local favorites Cornell Catering, Cornell Dairy, Chaseholm Farm Creamery, Emmy’s Organics, Finger Lakes Distilling, Gimme! Coffee, Hopshire Brewery, Ithaca Bakery, Ithaca Hummus, Jake’s Gouda, Lively Run Goat Dairy, the Piggery, and Wide Awake Bakery provided samples.

Staged, Performed, Manipulated

January 24–June 7, 2015

Photographs drawn from the permanent collection and dating from the early 1990s to early 2010s were presented to address issues related to identity and gender, the photographic apparatus and the gaze, referencing the history of photography but also combining it with cinematic production values and digital technologies.

Fall Creek Elementary’s fifth graders (above) connected works in this exhibition to their curriculum as part of their yearlong series of Museum visits using art on view.

Two works (center) by David Levinthal were included in Staged, Performed, Manipulated, and the artist (at left) spoke at the Museum on February 19. The talk was supported in part by a member of the Class of 1949 in honor of Jason and Clara Seley.

Staged, Performed, Manipulated was curated by the Johnson’s Andrea Inselmann and supported in part by the Ames Exhibition Endowment.

The world-famous photographer Margaret Bourke-White (1904–1971) graduated from Cornell in 1927. This exhibition, supported in part by the Helen and Robert J. Appel Exhibition Endowment, provided the unusual opportunity to view the entire span of her remarkable career in celebration of Cornell’s Sesquicentennial.

In 1971, shortly after her death, Cornell’s A. D. White Museum hosted the first comprehensive exhibition of her photography, with prints made in 1965 from her own negatives with her oversight and permission. The 2015 exhibition incorporated vintage prints—the first prints made from a negative—and those printed in 1965 and presented to the university as a gift from Bourke-White and LIFE Magazine.

The exhibition was curated by the Johnson’s Richard J. Schwartz Director, Stephanie Wiles, who gave a Members-only tour on May 21.

Cast and Present: Replicating Antiquity in the Museum and the Academy

January 31–July 19, 2015

The College of Arts and Sciences’ collection of plaster casts once comprised a vast range of objects primarily used for both teaching and research in the classics, art history, and fine arts departments. Today, only a fraction survive intact, with many lost over the years. This exhibition, in celebration of Cornell’s Sesquicentennial, traced some of the age-old artistic and didactic practices of replication and reproduction with twenty-six casts, complementary prints from the Johnson’s collection, and historical photographs from the Library’s Rare and Manuscript Collections.

Only four of the casts included were ready to exhibit without conservation or restoration. The others required cleaning, repair, and rebuilding of major structural sections including bases, drapery, and figures over a period of six months. We are grateful for the key partnership of Kasia Maroney, objects conservator at Boston Restoration in Trumansburg, New York, and the generous support of Madeleine Bennett ’48. In 2016, select casts were installed in the new Klarman Hall, and information about lost Cornell casts continues to be sought. Cast and Present was held in conjunction with a companion exhibition of unrestored casts at the Weinhold Chilled Water Plant building next to Beebe Lake.

The Johnson hosted a lecture, “The Ancient Female Nude (and Other Modern Fictions)” by Dr. Michael Squire of King’s College London on April 28.

This exhibition was cocurated by Annetta Alexandridis and Verity Platt, associate professors in the Departments of Classics and the History of Art, with the participation of their students, and coordinated by the Johnson’s Andrew Weislogel.

Revolt: Aesthetics of Dissent and Disgust

April 18–June 14, 2015

The History of Art Majors’ Society used themes of protest and civil unrest as starting points for this exhibition. Works from the Johnson’s collection considering the term “revolt” in all its myriad meanings were shown alongside images of Cornell’s history from the Library’s Rare and Manuscript Collections in the spirit of the Sesquicentennial.

The undergraduate curators published a 36-page catalogue to accompany the show, and chronicled their experience with a blog, curatedhams, and on Instagram.

This exhibition was funded in part by a generous gift from Betsey and Alan Harris, and grants from the Cornell Council for the Arts and the International Students Union. At the Johnson, oversight was provided by Alana Ryder, the Mellon Curatorial Coordinator for Academic Programs.

The exhibition was celebrated at an opening reception on April 17, cohosted by the History of Art Majors’ Society and the Museum Club (see page 43). It featured dancer Mandy Caughey (above) performing Butoh, the avant-garde dance performance founded in late-1950s Japan.

On April 30, artist Yuken Teruya (below, center) spoke about his work in conjunction with the exhibition.

Both events were funded in part by a grant from the Cornell Council for the Arts.

Curated by Andrea Inselmann, this exhibition highlighted work by artists based in and around Ithaca, most of whom were exhibiting at the Johnson for the first time. Painting, sculpture, photography, video, installation, and mixed media on view reflected a microcosm of contemporary art.

At the opening reception on June 26, a performance workshop featured the local talents of Sarah Hennies, Mathias Kamin, James Spitznagel, and Peter Vincent.

The Annual Stoikov Lecture on Asian Art

Arnold Chang’s rich and varied career has ranged from

serving as director of the Chinese painting department at Sotheby’s and working as a

gallerist at Kaikodo, to teaching, scholarship,

and building his own successful art practice.

As part of his Stoikov Lecture visit, he demonstrated

traditional Chinese landscape painting and discussed the materials, techniques, and

philosophies of this practice (above) the day before his public lecture, “The

Persistence of Tradition in Chinese Painting— A Personal Saga.”

The Stoikov Lecture is an annual lecture on Asian art funded by a generous gift

from Judith Stoikov ’63.

Andy Warhol’s twenty-foot-square mural of

the NYPD’s thirteen most wanted criminals of

1962 was only briefly installed on the exterior

of Philip Johnson’s New York State Pavilion

for the 1964 World’s Fair (center) before

being painted over following protests. Later

that year, Warhol reused the silkscreens to

make a set of paintings, each featuring one

of the mug shots. The Andy Warhol Museum

in Pittsburgh re-created the original mural,

13 Most Wanted Men, at its original scale as

a banner for its facade (at left) as a part of

this exhibition.

In 2014–15, new grants totaling $125,000 were awarded:

The Museum received a $50,000 grant from the Stockman Family Foundation Trust, generously matched in full by Susan E. Lynch, vice chair of the Museum Advisory Council, to address pressing conservation needs. Our curatorial staff have contracted with several specialized conservators to complete newly identified treatment projects and make significant progress on ambitious preservation efforts. One example, Landscape—Figures in a Field by George Inness (at far right), was treated by West Lake Conservators in Skaneateles, and Kasia Maroney of Boston Restoration in Trumansburg treated its frame, along with several others on view in the Tucker Gallery for nineteenth-century European and American art. By the end of 2015, fifty artworks and/or period frames were conserved under this initiative, and more are still in treatment.

The Samuel H. Kress Foundation granted the Johnson $30,000 to support a one-year position designed to strengthen ties between educators and curators in the shared task of interpretive programming. Beginning in Fall 2015, the Museum has hired Brittany Rubin as our Kress Interpretive Fellow, assisting with university class visits and installations focusing primarily on works on paper and premodern European holdings from the permanent collection. Brittany also assists in the Museum’s print room, seen here with Christian Waibel, intern for prints and drawings, 1800–1945, and the Summer 2015 Nancy Horton Bartels ’48 Scholar for Collections.

Two new grants were awarded in support of the upcoming traveling exhibition JapanAmerica: Points of Contact, 1876–1970, organized and cocurated by the Johnson’s Nancy E. Green. The National Endowment for the Arts awarded $25,000, and the Japan-United States Friendship Commission granted an additional $20,000. The exhibition opens at the Johnson in August 2016 and travels to the Crocker Art Museum in Sacramento, California, in February 2017. At right, Winslow Homer’s The Fountains at Night, World’s Columbian Exposition (1893) will be on loan in the exhibition from the collection of the Bowdoin College Museum of Art in Brunswick, Maine.
