As has been the tradition since 1990, we will also present the Leo Award at our Annual Benefit & Auction, recognizing visionary individuals who have fostered supportive environments for curators and artists. This year, we honor Emily Rauh Pulitzer, a firm believer in the power of art and the civic role of institutions. Mrs. Pulitzer’s cultural leadership and civic-minded dedication to St Louis is an inspiration echoed in ICI’s own commitment to the American art landscape, and to creating stronger arts communities across the country as much as around the world. ICI’s exhibitions and curatorial programs continue to champion more inclusive and connected art ecosystems. None of this would be possible without the involvement, passion and support of so many: the curators, the artists, our collaborators at museums and galleries around the world, the foundations, and our many supporters who make it all possible. And of course, at the core of our efforts are ICI’s dedicated Board of Trustees and extraordinary staff. This Fall, we welcome Amanda Parmer to the ICI team, our new Director of Programs. We’re excited to work with Amanda to shape ICI’s programs and a bright vision for the future. So join us this Fall, find us at an ICI program near you! Renaud Proch Executive Director
