Annual Report 2018-2019

Letter from the Director Dear members, donors, volunteers, and friends of GRAM, As I write this letter for the 2018-19 report, I wanted to start by acknowledging this unprecedented moment—a time when members of our community are navigating the ongoing health pandemic, economic crisis, and urgent and much-needed call for justice for Black Americans. Cultural institutions have the civic duty to improve the wellbeing of our communities, and over the next year GRAM will continue to evolve in the ways in which we serve our audiences as we work to become a more welcoming, accessible, and equitable institution. I look forward to sharing our progress in future reports. Until then, I’m pleased to share with you our impact during the last year: 2018-19 was another incredible year at GRAM. Together, we were able to provide over 95,000 people with enriching experiences through the power of art, creativity, and design. We pride ourselves on offering visitors unique and engaging experiences every time they walk through our doors. One of the ways we do this is through our permanent collection of over 6,000 works of art. Over the past year, we regularly rotated our collection works throughout the Museum’s three levels of galleries, providing fresh experiences for our returning visitors.

We also put our collection in the spotlight through the exhibition, A Decade at the Center: Recent Gifts and Acquisitions, which featured gifts and acquisitions to the collection from the last five years. Over the past year, the Museum strengthened and diversified the collection through acquisitions of works of art by Dawoud Bey, Robert Rauschenberg, Pablo Picasso, Alexander Girard, Carrie Mae Weems, Robert Motherwell, and many others!

Another exciting highlight from the past year was Maya Lin: Flow, an exhibition GRAM organized in partnership with Maya Lin’s studio. The exhibition showcased large-scale sculpture that focused on water and the environment, including two new works by Lin that were inspired by the Great Lakes Watershed and the Grand River.

Lin was on-site at GRAM during the opening weekend, presenting a sold-out artist talk to Museum members, mingling with supporters at a Donor Dinner, and holding a special in-gallery talk for local students.

Over the past year, GRAM continued to break down barriers to participation and increase accessibility to engaging arts and cultural experiences. We welcomed thousands of people to the Museum through our weekly Meijer Free Tuesdays and Meijer Free Thursday Nights, and we also joined Museums for All, a national access initiative that provides visitors who receive governmental food assistance with free year-round admission to GRAM with up to three guests each visit.

Thank you for being a part of the GRAM family. While we reflect on the 2018-19 season, we are excited about what’s in store over the coming year. I hope to see you at the Museum again soon!

Warm regards,

Dana Friis-Hansen Director and CEO

A Decade at the Center: Recent Gifts and Acquisitions January 26 – April 28, 2019

Above: Installation view of A Decade at the Center: Recent Gifts and Acquisitions at GRAM

The Grand Rapids Art Museum closed out a yearlong celebration of the Museum’s first decade at 101 Monroe Center with an exhibition featuring gifts and acquisitions to the permanent collection from the last five years.

The exhibition spanned all areas in which GRAM collects, from 19th century paintings to contemporary art, mid-century modern furniture to vintage photography, and rare Renaissance engravings to historical design objects. The exhibition comprised recent museum purchases, as well as gifts and promised gifts from numerous generous individuals and institutions.

GRAM’s commitment to exhibiting and collecting design and craft was illustrated by the inclusion of important works of furniture, ceramics, glass, and industrial design. This section of the exhibition featured highlights from GRAM’s design collection dating from the early 19th century to the present.

From chairs and lamps to tableware and electronics, these objects marry function and beauty and show the power design has to enhance our daily lives. On view for the first time were several pieces from a major new gift of over 100 design objects from one of the premier American collectors, George R. Kravis II.

In some cases, these acquisitions expand the Museum’s holding of works by particular artists, such as Mathis J. Alten, Andy Warhol, Richard Diebenkorn, Monir Shahroudy Farmanfarmaian, and Alex Katz, or introduce important artists new to the collection, including Oswaldo Vigas, Dawoud Bey, and Carrie Mae Weems.

With this exhibition, GRAM celebrated the crucial role of gifts in our ongoing effort to build one of the most notable collections in the American Midwest. Since the Museum’s inception in 1910, the generosity of our patrons has been crucial to building our permanent collection of over 6,000 objects.

A Decade at the Center: Growing Our Collection through Generous Gifts

The Grand Rapids Art Museum acquires new works of art primarily through direct gifts and as funds donated specifically for art acquisitions. Artists have also been generous in giving their own works. Since GRAM moved to its new building in October 2007, the collection has grown by 693 works and now totals 6,263.

We are very grateful to those listed on the following page, as well as several anonymous donors, who have donated works of art, acquisitions funds, made promised gifts of artwork, or have made extended loans since the building opened.

Maya Lin: Flow May 18 – Sept 8, 2019

9

Organized by GRAM in collaboration with Maya Lin’s studio, Flow featured sculpture that demonstrates Lin’s fascination with the natural environment, specifically water, as the subject. Created in recycled silver, steel pins, and common building materials, Lin conceives these sculptures with the use of charting, mapping, and scientific research to determine each work’s ultimate design, layout, and structure.

Lin created two new sculptures for the exhibition that focus directly on West Michigan. Pin River – Grand River Watershed (2019) is an installation made of steel pins imbedded directly into the wall forming a sparkling fifteen-foot-long outline of the Grand River Watershed.

At 260 miles in length, the Grand River is Michigan’s longest waterway and has been critical to the history and economy of Grand Rapids. The Traces Left Behind (From the Great Bear Lake to the Great Lakes) (2019) is a shimmering wall relief cast from recycled silver.

ANNUAL REPORT 2018 — 2019

In creating the work, Lin charted the span of contemporary bodies of water from the Arctic to the Great Lakes that were formed by the melting of the Laurentide Ice Shelf, which once covered much of the North American continent. With Flow, Lin a committed environmentalist, focuses attention on the crucial role of water, both to our region, and to global survival. The exhibition also creates connection and dialogue with Ecliptic, the public park in Rosa Parks Circle created by Lin that marks its 20th anniversary in 2020. “I’ve always been fixated on water,” says Lin. “Maybe it’s because it exists in multiple states, and you can never understand it in nature as a fixed moment in time.”

Exhibitions

Dylan Miner: Water is Sacred // Trees are Relatives October 27, 2018 – March 3, 2019

A Legacy of Love: Selections from the Mabel Perkins Collection January 26 – April 28, 2019

East Lansing-based artist and activist Dylan Miner debuted new work created for his Michigan Artist Series exhibition at GRAM with a focus on the natural environment of West Michigan and its history. Miner is a Michigan native of Wiisaakodewinini (Métis) descent. In Water is Sacred // Trees are Relatives, Miner investigates the important historical and current issues around three primary natural elements: wood, water, and sky, and the traditional knowledge and beliefs around them within Great Lakes Indigenous cultures.

During her lifetime, Mabel H. Perkins (1880-1974) was a renowned art collector and one of the Grand Rapids Art Museum’s greatest champions and supporters. Perkins’s passion for art and for the people of Grand Rapids led her to donate more than 300 prints to the Museum over twenty-five years. This exhibition included highlights from that gift, which are among some of the finest works in the museum’s collection.

Who Shot Sports: A Photographic History, 1843 to the Present October 27, 2018 – January 13, 2019 Comprising over 200 images in color and black-and-white from the past 175 years, Who Shot Sports: A Photographic History, 1843 to the Present presented an astonishing diversity of work by more than 150 photographers. The exhibition included classic images of legendary athletes and historic action shots, as well as pictures taken behind-the-scenes and on the sidelines. Sports both familiar and unfamiliar were represented in photographs taken across six continents.

Self, Symbol, Surrogate: Artist Portraits from GRAM’s Collection May 22 – August 11, 2019 This exhibition explored the many ways artists engage in the tradition of portraiture, one of art’s oldest genres. The exhibition brought together iconic works and lesser known examples in the Museum’s collection to illustrate various approaches to portraiture from the 17th Century to today.

The thematically grouped portraits addressed some of the numerous ways in which portraits function; some record an individual’s status and wealth, while others document a more objective or critical view of history.

Art in Bloom March 22 – March 24, 2019 Art in Bloom returned to celebrate the bi-annual competiton of art and floral design. Visitors were invited to tour the galleries and enjoy extravagant floral sculptures inspired by works from the Museum’s permanent collection created by some of the region’s most talented floral designers.

Nicholas Krushenick: Iron Butterfly March 23 – June 2, 2019 A “one hit wonder,” Iron Butterfly was a 1960’s psychedelic rock band remembered for their song “In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida,” a churning stew of pounding drums, reedy organ, and primitively chanted lyrics.

Artist Nicholas Krushenick appropriated the band’s contradictory name for his 1968 print series, which was on view along with one other work of his in GRAM’s collection.

Selections from the 2019 Festival of the Arts Regional Arts Competition June 26 – July 28, 2019 GRAM collaborated with Festival of the Arts to exhibit a selection of works by regional artists from the Festival 2019 Regional Arts Exhibition. Chief Curator Ron Platt and Assistant Curator Jennifer Wcisel selected pieces from the nearly 400 works on view in the exhibition for this special presentation.

Billy Mayer: The Shape of Things August 24, 2019 – February 2, 2020 One of Michigan’s most distinctive and unique sculptors, the late Billy Mayer (1953-2017) created work in numerous media and materials that addressed the mundane elements of daily life as well as bigger, broader ideas about human existence. The Shape of Things brought together both large and small-scale sculpture that demonstrate Mayer’s creative imagination and his impressive range of interests and sources, from Surrealism and Pop Art to souvenir kitsch.

Melanie Daniel: Only Four Degrees May 18 – September 8, 2019 In Only Four Degrees, Daniel imagines a world at the brink of collapse by our chronic, longstanding disregard for its well-being. The people who populate her rich narrative pictures are painfully aware of their difficult circumstances and have adopted various methods to cope with their new surroundings. Daniel’s garish, unnatural palette, dense areas of vibrating pattern, and skewed perspectives underscore the uneasy relationship between the subjects and their environment.

Alexander Calder: Pour La Grande Vitesse and other Works on Paper June 6 – August 25, 2019 Beginning in 1968, the Grand Rapids Art Museum began acquiring works by Calder for the Museum’s permanent art collection, including the sculpture Red: Rudder in the Air, as well as numerous prints and unique works on paper—eleven of which were displayed in this exhibition. In these compositions we see Calder exploring dynamic movement, form, and the interaction of bold colors.

Summer Art Camps GRAM Summer Art Camps provide youth ages 4 to 15 with immersive, week-long cultural and skill-building experiences.

Each week of camp is tailored to children of specific age groups, spanning from kindergarten aged children to teenagers. Last summer, 156 children participated, with need-based scholarships provided to 42 children.

Instructors introduced the campers to works of art from GRAM’s collection, as well as exhibitions on view. Campers viewed and discussed works of art in the galleries, learned about different artists and mediums, created art in the studio, learned art techniques from trained instructors, and participated in collaborative problem-solving activities with their peers.

“Our son sees art camp as an opportunity to see friends from past years and as a chance to make new friendships. He’s always very happy to come and proud of the pieces of art he creates!”

“GRAM is a great place where curiosity and passion for art come alive. We love to learn, to teach and interact with the public, museum staff, and fellow volunteers. The Museum provides opportunities that we didn’t anticipate in our retirement years. The GRAM family is the best group in town for these reasons and many more!”

“Member Exhibition Openings are my favorite perk of membership because I’m surrounded by people who actively enjoy, participate, and engage in the arts.

They serve as the perfect companions for viewing new exhibitions at GRAM, plus the hors d’oeuvres and the live music are an added bonus.”

Hailey Jansson Videographer and Photographer

Dan Nederhoed City of Grand Rapids Civil Engineer

“My favorite perk of membership is knowing I can escape to the galleries on any particular day, and the ability to bring guests—my mom, my friends, a date—experiencing art with others is valuable for a variety of perspectives.”

“Initially, I became a member at GRAM because I thought it would be fun to go to the member preview parties and get free food. I also love making art in the GRAM Studio, learning about different artists and experiencing the Museum’s exhibitions. One of my favorite memories at GRAM was during the ‘T.J. Wilcox: In the Air’ member exhibition opening when I got the chance to speak with the artist. It was revolutionary for me.”
