LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR

f you are going to be in town this summer, why not plan a staycation that includes The Columbus Museum? Our summer family programs include the return of Fantastic Fridays in June and July. These free performances feature live entertainment by musicians, storytellers, puppeteers, and dancers, as well as art-making activities. In June and July, we also offer week long-summer camps with different themes for specific age groups. In addition to these great programs, the Museum continues to host family activities, adult art classes, lunch and lecture programs, exhibition-related programs, and more. Two special exhibitions will open this summer that focus on Georgia artists and artisans. On view in the Galleria cases beginning August 6 is Turning of the Seasons: The Moulthrop Family and the Chattahoochee River Dam Project, which includes bowls created by noted wood turners Philip and Matt Moulthrop from wood salvaged from the 1869 Eagle & Phenix dam. The exhibition includes examples by all three generations of Moulthrop wood turners, Ed, Philip, and Matt; historic artifacts related to the Eagle & Phenix Dam; and information about the process of wood turning. In the Woodruff Works on Paper Gallery, Lamar Baker (1908-1994): Selected Works on Paper will open on July 23. Born in Atlanta, Baker spent the first part of his career in New York City before returning to his native state in 1951. Settling near Columbus in Talbotton, Baker created paintings, drawings, and prints that focus largely

on Southern life. In addition to these exhibitions, St. EOM’s Pasaquan, Field of Play, Between the Lines, and Discovering the Chattahoochee Valley continue on view during the summer months. If your travels take you to New York City this summer, you can enjoy seeing great works of art from The Columbus Museum’s collection at two major exhibitions. The Museum lent 38 works of art by Columbus native Alma Thomas to Alma Thomas, organized by the Tang Museum at Skidmore College and the Studio Museum of Harlem. The Columbus Museum has important holdings for Thomas, including paintings, works on paper, and archival materials. The works by Thomas on loan from the Museum form a key section of the exhibition. Alma Thomas will be at the Studio Museum beginning July 14. The Museum’s painting by Stuart Davis, Shapes of Landscape Space #3, is on loan to the exhibition Stuart Davis: In Full Swing at the Whitney Museum of American Art June 30 through October 10. Later in 2016, the Stuart Davis exhibition travels to the National Gallery of Art and then, in 2017, to the de Young Memorial Museum, Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco, and to the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art. The Museum lends works from the collection as a way of sharing them with new audiences and supporting exhibitions that other museums organize. The collection also benefits from the research done in conjunction with exhibitions. Closer to home, the Museum has lent a work to ArtBeat, Columbus’ community celebration of the arts. Slanted #3, a

1993 sculpture by New Orleans artist Ida Kohlmeyer (1912-1997), can be seen at 10th Street and Broadway in front of the RiverCenter for the Performing Arts for the next year. Kohlmeyer, who is acclaimed for her abstract, colorful, exuberant paintings and sculptures, once commented that she hoped her work would have lasting impact on viewers, stating, “I’d like very much to make their lives a little more vibrant.” In that spirit, The Columbus Museum hopes that having Slanted #3 in Uptown makes our community even more vibrant.

The Mission of the Columbus Museum is to bring American art and history to life for the communities of the Chattahoochee Valley. THE COLUMBUS MUSEUM

LAMAR BAKER (1908 -1994) SELECTED WORKS ON PAPER JULY 23, 2016 – JANUARY 29, 2017 | WOODRUFF WORKS ON PAPER GALLERY

ne of the many important artists to work in Columbus, Lamar Baker is best known for his vivid, frequently surrealist, depictions of Southern life. An Atlanta native, Baker moved to New York in 1935 to work and study, returning to Georgia to spend summers with family in Waverly Hall. During his years in New York, Southern life and scenery remained the focus of his art. In 1942, he won a Julius Rosenwald Fund fellowship that enabled him to travel through Mississippi and Louisiana. In August 1951, Baker settled near Columbus with his new wife, working for the 1

Litho-Krome Company and teaching art classes. Baker, a white male, frequently focused his work on the social issues of racial injustice and violence during the 1940s. Leading graphic arts historian and curator Carl Zigrosser described him as “one of the first native artists to reckon with the problems of the new South.” His later work often investigated issues of mortality. Baker bequeathed roughly half of his work to The Columbus Museum, including prints, landscapes, figure studies, surrealist interpretations of African-American spirituals, and etchings of the Okefenokee Swamp. 2

NEW EXHIBITION

TURNING OF THE SEASONS THE MOULTHROP FAMILY AND THE CHATTAHOOCHEE RIVER DAM PROJECT 1

eorgia’s importance as a center for wood-turned bowls is largely due to the contributions of three generations of the Atlantabased Moulthrop family. Turning of the Seasons: The Moulthrop Family and the Chattahoochee River Dam Project will present a selection of works by Ed, Philip, and Matt Moulthrop, including turned bowls that Philip and Matt recently completed using wood salvaged from the old 19thcentury Chattahoochee River dams. The exhibition also offers a look at the history of the Chattahoochee River dams that were so vital to the textile mills in Columbus. The Moulthrop family’s outstanding wood-turned bowls, made from wood indigenous to the Southeast, have received national recognition for their beauty and high craftsmanship. “The father of modern wood turning,” Ed Moulthrop (19162003), was a prominent Atlanta architect whose designs include the Atlanta Civic Center, the Callaway Memorial Chapel at Callaway Gardens, and the Van Leer Electrical Engineering building at Georgia Institute of Technology. Self-taught, Moulthrop invented many of the tools he used to create his bowls, which were prized for their large size and highly-polished surfaces. Several of his tools will be featured in the exhibition, along with bowls in various states of production. Philip Moulthrop (b. 1947), who learned the art of wood turning from his father, has made a significant contribution to the craft with his mosaic bowl technique. For these works, he uses glue and epoxies

AUGUST 6 – DECEMBER 31, 2016 | GALLERIA CASES to adhere thinner branches from a tree onto a turned bowl, then turns the bowl once again on the lathe with the result that the patterns of the wood branches appear to float against a dark background. The family’s tradition in wood turning continues with Matt Moulthrop (b. 1977), who began turning wood bowls as a child and today is a noted wood turner. Historic artifacts and images related to the Eagle & Phenix Dam will also be spotlighted. Columbus’ status as a mill town began the year it was founded, and the Eagle & Phenix Manufacturing Company became one of the best known of the city’s mills. Companies constructed wood and stone dams to harness the raw power of the Chattahoochee River, and many remained until they were removed in 2012 to make way for river restoration

and whitewater rafting. Philip and Matt Moulthrop used wood salvaged from the 1869 Eagle & Phenix Dam to create a limited series of wood-turned bowls. In late fall, the Museum will hold a silent auction for The Eagle & Phenix Dam Series, the bowls made from the dam. Information about the silent auction will be forthcoming in the fall Muse. 1.

WHAT’S COOKIN’?

he Museum recently acquired two fundraising cookbooks developed by prominent women’s organizations in Columbus. These groups made education a cornerstone of their charity work in the city, and the cookbooks are prime examples of how the traditional “women’s work” of cooking could be used to assist multiple families. In 1895, Columbus became one of the first Southern cities to offer free kindergarten classes through the efforts of the Free Kindergarten Association (FKA), headed by Judge George and Lucy Duy. The primary goal of the Association was to educate and care for pre-school children of mill workers. The FKA’s incorporation petition stated that “the object of such corporation is to establish and maintain free kindergarten schools in the city of Columbus and vicinity for the education and moral training of the children of the poor, and for the material maintenance of these for whom their parents are unable to make adequate provision.” This 1902 cookbook was most likely one of the group’s fundraising efforts. After joining with the Good Will Community Center in 1924, both groups ceased operations in the mid-1960s. Columbus later became the first city in Georgia, and one of the first in the nation, to add public kindergarten to the curriculum in 1905. Edith Woodruff and Winfred Barlow were brought in to run a special academy to train new kindergarten teachers. In 1931, 61 Columbus women formed the Community Service League. The group functioned as an independent club for five years before becoming part of the Association of Junior Leagues of America in 1936, joining like-minded society women who volunteered in causes primarily related to children’s health and education. The recipes in this early version of the Junior League cookbook range from main dishes to salads and sweets, and there are several complete luncheon, supper, and dinner menus included. Advertisements from 28 businesses primarily feature grocery stores, food companies, and pharmacies, providing an excellent snapshot of Depression-era businesses in Columbus. Some examples include Dinglewood Pharmacy, Alex Mitchell's Candy Store, Craig's Bakery, and NEHI, Inc. 1

An ad on the back for King’s grocery store chain (with 11 locations in the bi-city area) features the emblem of the National Recovery Administration (NRA), a New Deal agency meant to reduce “destructive competition” in labor by setting minimum wages and product prices and maximum worker hours by industry. Participation in the NRA by businesses was voluntary, but the program was so popular with workers that stores often joined and displayed the Blue Eagle emblem to avoid boycotts, even if they only followed some of the regulations. The NRA only lasted from 1933 to 1935 before it was ruled unconstitutional by the Supreme Court, but many of its provisions soon appeared in the National Labor Relations Act, also known as the Wagner Act. 1.

VOLUNTEER SPOTLIGHT & NEW EMPLOYEE SPOTLIGHT

SUMMER 2016

VOLUNTEER SPOTLIGHT TOM CHAMBLISS Tom Chambliss has been volunteering at The Columbus Museum since August 2015. He has worked in the Shop and has also helped with graphic design work. “I studied Art History in school as a part of a Graphic Design program, but I enjoyed the subject so much that I took it on as a minor after filling all of my requisite classes. I love art, and I’m glad to have the opportunity to work around such a large collection locally,” he said. His favorite piece in the Museum’s collection is Burning African Village Play Set with Big House and Lynching by Kara Walker because “she explores gender and racial stereotypes in provocative and challenging ways.”

Contact: edu@columbusmuseum.com for more information.

June 16: Musa – Art Inspiring Art Featuring: The Schroeder Colegium The Columbus Museum will present Musa, original music by Donald Tipton. The piece takes a precedent from a late 19thcentury composition by Russian composer, Modest Mussorgsky, called Pictures at an Exhibition. Like Mussorgsky, Tipton's score for Musa is a series of movements, each inspired by a different painting in The Columbus Museum's permanent collection. Musa is performed by The Schroeder Colegium, made up of soprano saxophone, violin, cello, bass, drums and piano. The score for Musa makes use of this unique grouping of instruments as the music moves from neo-classicism to jazz. During the second half, the music for the evening will be familiar standards performed by this marvelous ensemble.

August 18: When Irish Eyes are Smiling Featuring: Keltic Kudzu Join us as we explore music and art influenced by Ireland with performances by Atlanta's Keltic Kudzu and featuring the art of Robert Henri. During the break we will review one of the works created by Henri during his time in Ireland.

June 9: The Life and Artistic Journey of St. EOM Featuring: Michael McFalls, Director of Pasaquan and Fred Fussell, Independent Art Consultant Eddie Owens Martin, who introduced himself as St. EOM, was the creator of Pasaquan. This visionary artist, who had no formal training, reveled in the intuitive, creative art process. St. EOM was influenced by many artistic traditions including Mesoamerican, African, and Eastern art, but the content of his work was constructed from utopian visions. Michael McFalls and Fred Fussell will discuss Eddie Owens Martin’s life and spiritual transformation to St. EOM, as well as his visionary art environment, Pasaquan. This program is held in conjunction with the “St. EOM’s Pasaquan” exhibition.

July 6: St. EOM’s Pasaquan – National Treasure in the Southern Pines Featuring: Dr. Keith Hebert, Assistant Professor of History, Auburn University

July 21: Celebrating Pasaquan Featuring: East Wind Bluegrass Band During this Third Thursday, we will be celebrating the work of Georgia’s own St. EOM and the restoration of the historic Pasaquan site in Buena Vista, Georgia. Enjoy bluegrass music by the Bluegrass East Wind Band and create your own folk art necklace in our studio classroom with beads from Pasaquan. During the music break, enjoy a gallery walk with Columbus

Outside of Buena Vista, Georgia, nestled in the tall pines of the rural landscape, sits Pasaquan, a nationally significant outdoor work of art created by Eddie Owens Martin between 1957 and 1986. While Pasaquan’s colorful mandalas, totems, shrines, snake adorned walls, and ceremonial spaces might seem to be one of a kind, Martin’s work shares much in common with dozens of similar visionary art environments. This session will explore Pasaquan’s story about a broader group of artists and places that undoubtedly left a permanent mark upon American art. This program is held in conjunction with the “St. EOM’s Pasaquan” exhibition.

July 18 – 22: Art and Science (Ages 8 – 10) Instructor: Wynter Smith Experimenting is not just for science; it’s also a great way to create new and exciting artwork. During this camp, we will discover the links between science and art as we create handson projects. Campers will actively explore and experiment with a variety of materials and discover scientific processes along the way.

July 25 – 29: Art and Nature (Ages 11 – 13) Instructor: Wynter Smith Get inspired by the beauty of nature, discover how artists use nature to create their artwork, and create your own nature-inspired masterpiece during this camp. Explore the Museum’s galleries as well as the Bradley Olmsted Garden, and experiment with art-making techniques as we uncover the connections between art and nature.
