From the Executive Director Dear LMFA Family, The future is looking brighter than ever. Our downtown Cultural Arts District in Longview is growing. It is vibrant and beautiful. New murals are being painted, bringing more public art to our community. We look forward to LMFA’s role as a cornerstone of the Arts!Longview District as we begin, over the next year, preparing to move into our new home right across from the courthouse!

This new location will elevate LMFA to truly be a renowned museum in Texas and, we hope, the nation.

As we begin to transition to our new location, which we hope will open in January 2023, we are stepping into our new identity. We are elevating everything we do at LMFA to help take our community to the next level. That includes this Perspective newsletter, which will now be referred to as LMFA’s magazine. The issue you are reading today offers a new format from our previous publications. It’s a full, magazinescale publication that will come to you bi-annually. It will be filled with all the latest happenings, including upcoming exhibitions, art insights, special news, highlights, and more great things at LMFA and in the Texas art scene.

This is such an exciting time for us and for Longview's Cultural Arts District. It’s a growing time for LMFA as we prepare for the next phase of our future, which will be guided by the vision and leadership of our amazing Board of Directors.

Our present home has served us well for many years and we are excited to spend the next year and a half here. We also are incredibly excited for our future move to the former Longview National Bank and Regions Bank building at the corner of North Fredonia and Methvin streets.

In the meantime, make plans to come see us soon for our current exhibition, “The American West,” which features Texas artists who pay tribute to our wonderful state’s history. Next up, join us in the fall for an exhibition called “Seeking Place” by abstract artist Sherry Giryotas.

We look forward to seeing you at the museum!

Artfully Yours,

CAPITAL CAMPAIGN

IGNITE DREAM

THE

LMFA CAPITAL CAMPAIGN

An Inspired Vision of the Future of the Museum LMFA has had a monumental year, starting with the purchase of a former bank building in downtown Longview that will become the museum’s permanent home in 2023.

The iconic former Longview National Bank and Regions Bank building, located in the heart of Downtown Longview at the corner of Fredonia and Methvin streets, will help LMFA cement its legacy as a renowned art museum in Northeast Texas.

Museum staff, board members and loyal supporters gathered February 25 at the former bank building to celebrate as LMFA officially purchased the building.

This wonderful day was a celebratory milestone for the museum, but much work remains to be completed.

LMFA will remain in its current home on Tyler Street through the end of 2022 as the former bank building is completely remodeled and transformed into Longview’s new artistic hub.

4 PERSPECTIVE

Features the museum is excited to unveil include a pedestrian landscaped breezeway with teller windows becoming art display boxes, gallery space located inside the former bank vault, safety deposit box fronts that will become donor recognition plaques, and hopefully a rooftop restaurant venue possibly called “The View”. The museum will complete renovations while preserving much of the artistic features of the building itself. LMFA plans to occupy the basement and first floor area of the building.

Rental space remains available on the second floor.

For information on leasing, call 903-297-6000.

With a strong, safe, architecturally beautiful mid-century modern building that maintains its banking heritage, LMFA is setting itself on a stage to organize world-class exhibitions. The museum continues to seek pledges of support from the community for the Capital Campaign.

If you would like to hear more about the "Ignite the

Dream" campaign, please contact Tiffany Jehorek at LMFA. Pledges can be made online by visiting www.lmfa.org/capital-campaign-fundraiser/. We so appreciate your support and look forward to the future where the arts continue to thrive and make a difference in the well-being and quality of life of East Texans.

DISCO INFERNO Bringing Back the Magic!

This year’s Magic & Mayhem theme “DISCO INFERNO” is shaping up to be an event like no other! Last year, we learned that we could host a virtual silent auction and display the items at the museum for viewing for two weeks prior to the event. This revelation allowed the items to be broadcast to a broader audience through the museum’s Facebook of more than 6000 followers, the museum’s 4000 plus email database and to visitors at the museum.

This year items will be on display beginning October 7 just in time for downtown’s fall ArtWalk. What this means for our October 30th, Disco Inferno, event is more room for more guests! So, save the date or better yet, buy your tickets now at LMFA.ORG.

LMFA Receives Grant from Texas Women for the Arts to Awaken the Artist in Every Child Longview Museum of Fine Arts is pleased to be the recipient of a $10,000 grant for the first time in the museum's history from Texas Women for the Arts, a program of the Texas Cultural Trust.

The Texas Cultural Trust is a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting and increasing access and awareness for the arts across the state. The Texas Women for the Arts is a statewide giving circle that, since 2005, has awarded more than 282 grants to arts organizations.

LMFA is proud to be a 2021 grant recipient. These funds will be used to support LMFA’s educational efforts, including carefully crafted docent tours to accompany the museum’s exhibitions and the outstanding June/ July summer art classes which strive to educate and enlighten the artist within each child. The funding also

will help with such efforts as virtual art museum tours and LMFA’s free Family Days. Hundreds of children and their families attend these many wonderful events each year at LMFA. Thank you to Nancy Murray, who serves on the Texas Cultural Trust board, for inviting LMFA to submit a grant application for this program. Grants such as this allow the museum to continue being a place that awakens and nurtures the artist in every child.

CURRENT EXHIBITION

Works from North Texas Private Collections O N D I S P L AY T HRO U G H SEPTEMBER 25, 2021 From iconic portraits of cowboys to paintings depicting the rural landscape, Longview Museum of Fine Arts invites patrons to experience “The American West” in a new exhibit.

The exhibit, which is on display through September 25, features artwork curated from two private collectors in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. This phenomenal exhibit tells the story of "The American West," offering a glimpse into Texas history and heritage.

ARTISTS ON DISPLAY The exhibition includes such names as Teal Blake, Sophy Brown, John Cowan, Otis Dozier, Victor Higgins, Alexandre Hogue, Harry Jackson, Greg Kelsey, Perry Nichols, Frank Reaugh, Porfirio Salinas and Xiang Zhang.

Some of the artists on display include members of The Dallas Nine, a group of artists who were active in Dallas and who received nationwide acclaim in the 1930s.

The Dallas Nine started when a group of nine young artists, including Dozier and Nichols, displayed an exhibit called “Nine Young Dallas Artists” in 1932 at the Fair Park Dallas Public Art Museum. A review of the show in a New York publication drew attention to the Dallas art scene.

“This phenomenal exhibit tells the story of The American West, offering a glimpse into Texas history and heritage."

The group referred to as The Dallas Nine would change some faces over the coming years as the art scene evolved. Hogue is among the most notable artists in the group. Hogue received national attention in the 1930s when he depicted the effects of a drought that devastated the Great Plains.

He later produced a much-publicized water erosion series and in 1937 an oil industry series for Fortune magazine.

8 PERSPECTIVE

NON-NATIVE ARTISTS Other featured artists, such as Zhang, did not grow up in Texas but were inspired by the western landscape after moving to the state. Zhang grew up in China and went on to receive a master’s degree in Fine Art from Tulane University in New Orleans. Upon graduating from Tulane, he moved to Texas where he nurtured a love for painting horses and portraiture and went on to develop his special style of western art. Zhang’s work combines impressionistic and realistic techniques, and he became a force in western artwork. He is known for his realistic depictions of historical events captured in large compositions such as “The Oklahoma Land Rush,” “Arriving Fort Worth,” “Austin Drive,” “The Sooners” and many more.

Other work on display includes five, large-scale depictions of iconic scenes in Texas history by artist Raymond Everett in 1912. Everett originally created the artwork for The Rice Hotel in Houston. The paintings depict such scenes from Texas history as the Alamo, the Surrender and the Texas Capitol building.

LMFA celebrated the opening of this beautiful exhibition with a reception, which was held July 17. Museum patrons enjoyed viewing the artwork and learning about Texas history in the process.

In addition to the special exhibition, LMFA has thoughtfully selected pieces from its permanent collection to display in an exhibit titled "Early Texas Art Revisited". Artwork currently on display from the permanent collection includes iconic works and artists from Texas history.

There is a strong link between art and history as artwork helps to share the story of our collective past. It is LMFA’s hope that this special exhibition of "The American West" not only gives the community a chance to experience Texas art but also to learn about the state’s fascinating history.

UPCOMING EXHIBITION

Sherry Giryotas: Seeking Place O N D I S P L AY O CTO BER 9 - D ECEMBER 22, 2021 As Executive Director and Curator at the Longview Museum of Fine Arts, I first had the pleasure of meeting Sherry Giryotas a couple of years ago while hosting an exhibit by her husband, Dallas sculptor Phillip Shore.

Upon speaking with her, I was immediately intrigued by Giryotas’ abstract art as she offers a unique perspective in her observances of the rural landscape. I am now pleased to have the opportunity to present her paintings and to host the exhibit, Sherry Giryotas: Seeking Place.

Giryotas’ paintings in Seeking Place were conceived over a period of about 10 years as she traveled between

“…each painting helps to record the experience or sense of place and traces my passage through it.”

Texas and Michigan. The paintings serve as a reflection of her observances of the landscape, how it has evolved over time and how environmental factors have prompted such change.

Her abstractions are landscapes of the mind, as she explains, “In the abstracted, internalized landscapes of my work, each painting helps to record the experience or sense of place and traces my passage through it. My observations of a constantly changing environment are referenced in the forms and nuances of light, 10 PERSPECTIVE

a balancing of disorder with order through the complexity of pattern and mark making, drawing, and manipulating paint on the surface of the works make up the structure in my canvases.”

This exhibition, Sherry Giryotas: Seeking Place, serves as a prime opportunity not only to examine the creativity present in Giryotas’ art but also to reflect upon our natural environment and the changes that are constantly happening within it.

ARTIST STATEMENT: My work is informed and influenced by my observations of having lived on a variety of continents amid different cultures and the environments that surrounded me. In the abstracted, internalized landscapes of my work, each painting helps to record the experience or sense of place and traces my passage through it. My observations of a constantly changing environment are referenced in the forms and nuances of light, a balancing of disorder with order through the complexity of pattern and mark making, drawing, and manipulating paint on the surface of the works make up the structure in my canvases.

The atmospheric quality of the colors, which often reference the local color of the sites where I reside or travel, is offset by intense patterns, which rest firmly at the forefront of the canvas. In addition to the flat marks created by the oil stick, I add symbols to the surface via a mono-print technique that are impressions created by dipping paint onto a textured surface and then applying it to the canvas.

In the act of painting, the surface of the canvas becomes a constant progression of making marks and then painting over them, varying thicknesses of paint and the varying size of brush strokes contributes to the textured surface.

The paintings reveal a tension between the depth of the broader volumes of color and the flattened surface quality of the symbols, ultimately creating abstracted cartographic vistas imprinted with hieroglyphic-like legends. There is a sense of breathing room, or periods of silence that exist in contrast to the more concentrated expressionistic elements of the paintings, in which the frenzied gestural stroke balances the relatively ordered neutral of the canvas.† I am aware of a sense of my own physicality within the space of time, seeing and memory.

My hand becomes one with the mind, an automatic writing of images occurs manipulating paint onto the canvas. My finished works are an amalgamation of memories of shifting landscapes, urban mixed up with rural, a physical balance between the harmony and chaos, all melding together into a complex tapestry of images. My paintings are not specific to a place or time but are visceral responses to my immediate and memorized environments. † From the Center to Periphery; Place and Displacement in Sherry Giryotas's Recent Work.

ARTWORKS

During one of our summer arts classes, Natasha Raibon, LMFA Board Member and LMFA ArtWorks summer art teacher, took her art class to assist mural artist, Dace Kidd with her “Flower Power” Cultural Arts District mural. So fun!

SUMMER FUN! Summer Art Classes LMFA is known for its outstanding June/July summer art program and this summer has been no exception.

The museum hosted is largest summer program to date this year with 242 children, teens, and some adults in four-day classes. At the culmination of the fourth day for the morning and afternoon classes, a mini exhibition reception was held in the SWEPCO gallery. Children and teens were delighted to dress up and bring their parents to see their artwork.

LMFA’s summer art classes were offered mornings, afternoons, and evenings. The classes covered a variety

of media, and each course strived to educate and enlighten the artist within each student by exposing them to colors, lines, shapes, and art history. The museum coordinates and hires area art teachers throughout the year to assist in teaching students, young and old alike, more ways to expand their love of art and art techniques.

Special thanks to LMFA’s Outreach and Membership Coordinator Crystal Taylor for planning and coordinating this amazing line-up of summer LMFA art classes and to all the art teachers who shared part of their summer with us.

“I am so thankful for these classes. My seventhgrade daughter has found confidence and has realized that art is her passion.”

COVID INNOVATIONS

THE ART OF INNOVATING COVID-19 brought an opportunity to showcase the LMFA Permanent Collection with a depth and intimacy yet to be experienced.

LEARNING AND GROWING THROUGH DIFFICULT CIRCUMSTANCES Like many other museums, LMFA pivoted during the COVID-19 pandemic as the museum strived to continue educating the community about art in new ways.

In 2020, LMFA offered a virtual field trip for more than 125 third-grade Hudson PEP students. Each student viewed the artwork close-up on individual iPads through a slide presentation pre-prepared by museum staff. LMFA Executive Director and Curator Tiffany Jehorek was broadcast to each of the classrooms as she physically walked through the museum’s galleries, talking about the artwork, and answering students’ questions. Similar virtual tours also were offered to residents of five assisted living homes during the pandemic.

Another bright spot in 2020 was that the pandemic gave museum staff more time to spend with LMFA’s permanent collection. Many of the museum’s shows throughout the year highlighted the permanent collection, which was meaningful to LMFA’s staff and the community.

LMFA looks forward to continuing these COVID innovations in years to come as the museum seeks to further enrich and enlighten the community about art.

OPENING RECEPTION A current Kilgore College Rangerette studies the photos of photographer O. Rufus Lovett.

Rangerettes Opening: Portraits of Precision!

Artists, patrons, and many members of America’s first precision dance drill team enjoyed visiting LMFA on Friday, March 26, for the opening reception of “Kilgore College Rangerettes Celebrating 80 Years.” The exhibition by photographer O. Rufus Lovett featured a photo essay of the glamour of the Rangerettes juxtaposed with the smalltown football environment spanning 30 years. From March 13 through July 3 as the exhibition was on display, LMFA was fortunate to meet many former Rangerette members and, in some cases, entire lines.

East Texas is so fortunate to be the home of this organization of beautiful, hardworking women who have represented this community well for the past 80 years. LMFA also was honored to host the incredible O. Rufus Lovett whose photographic talents are a true gem in the community.
