From the Director

Dear Members,

As we look forward to this fall, we can’t help but feel a sense of excitement and anticipation. Since 1956, when the North Carolina Museum of Art opened its doors on Morgan Street, our collections, exhibitions, and innovative programming have provided opportunities to engage with the arts while encouraging dialogue and fostering connections among art enthusiasts of all backgrounds.

From its founding the People’s Collection has had a core strength in 17th-century Dutch art. This September we are pleased to present an exhibition focused on this period, featuring works in a variety of mediums from the renowned collection of the MFA Boston. Entitled Dutch Art in a Global Age: Masterpieces from the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, the show explores the complex histories reflected in the pictures of acclaimed artists such as Rembrandt, Frans Hals, Rachel Ruysch, and more (see pages 2–5).

In addition to this landmark exhibition, the NCMA debuts an extraordinary gift of five modern paintings from Josie and Julian Robertson, including the Museum’s first Picasso painting. Read more about this work’s journey to the NCMA on pages 10–11. We are also celebrating the generous gift of Pat and Tom Gipson of

interactive musical swings and benches by the Canadian art and design studio Daily tous les jours. These artworks, which will be installed adjacent to the Welcome Center in the Museum Park, promise to bring out the inner child in all of us (pages 14–15). On the weekend of September 22–24, we focus on contemporary print culture with our first art book fair, End Paper (pages 6–9). Meanwhile, in Winston-Salem we feature three new shows at the Southeastern Center for Contemporary Art (SECCA): works by Peruvian American artist Kukuli Velarde, site-specific murals, and international fiber art. See pages 22–23 for details.

Events and exhibitions, interactive installations and new acquisitions—there’s something for everyone at the NCMA. Whether you are a seasoned museumgoer, curious beginner, or someone simply seeking a moment of joyful inspiration, we have something extraordinary in store for you this season.

With appreciation and my best,

Dutch Art, Commerce, Colonialism

Contextualizing Complex Histories

The Netherlands, a country in Northern Europe much smaller than North Carolina, has produced some of the most influential and important artists in history. In the 17th century, Dutch merchants sailed across seas and oceans, joining trade networks that stretched from Asia to the Americas to Africa. This unprecedented movement of goods, ideas, and people, both free and enslaved, gave rise to what some have called the first age of globalization. International commerce fueled the economy and sparked an artistic boom in the Dutch Republic the likes of which the world had never seen. The extraordinary art of this period continues to be deeply admired today.

Dutch Art in a Global Age presents more than one hundred remarkable

objects from the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, and five paintings from the NCMA’s important collection of Dutch art, with an innovative focus. Arranged thematically in six sections, the show explores the intersections between art, commercial networks, and colonial expansion. Instead of traditional displays arranged by chronology, artist, or subject, the artworks are presented here through the lens of global exchange. The exhibition examines how Dutch dominance in international commerce and access to new goods and information transformed life in the Netherlands and created an extraordinary cultural flourishing. Indeed, the art of the period offers evidence of how people wished to present themselves, their ideals, and concerns—as

well as what themes they avoided.

The exhibition begins with still lifes of imported luxury goods that draw the visitor’s attention to the global origins of what now are much more common domestic items, such as Asian ceramics, American tobacco, Indonesian shells, and Turkish tulips. It continues with seascapes, landscapes, and historic maps, which emphasize the increasing global reach of Dutch merchants and the prominence of the Netherlands as a seafaring nation and focus on Amsterdam as a cosmopolitan and trade hub. Next, a large group of portraits of Dutch citizens and immigrants brings out individual stories and shows how people communicated their identity through art. The exhibition concludes with landscapes depicting the

2

more familiar scenery of the Netherlands and scenes of domestic life that reveal how international styles and commodities were integrated into daily use.

While paintings and prints of this time celebrated Dutch economic success, sophistication, thriftiness, and piety, much of the darker side of this prosperity was simply omitted. Poverty, child labor, and above all the role of the Netherlands in the transatlantic slave trade as well as exploitative colonies in Asia, Africa, and the Americas were depicted through a benign or positive lens, if at all. This exhibition utilizes new research in cultural and economic history to better contextualize 17th-century Dutch art and address these complex histories.

Within this new context, the exhibition features paintings by Rembrandt, Frans

Hals, Gerrit Dou, Jacob van Ruisdael, Rachel Ruysch, and other celebrated artists. The show takes a broader approach to presenting Dutch paintings than the NCMA’s collection galleries: they are complemented by exquisite decorative arts in silver and ceramics and superb impressions from the MFA Boston’s worldrenowned print collection. The exhibition also celebrates the remarkable 2017 gift from Rose-Marie and Eijk van Otterloo and Susan and Matthew Weatherbie that elevated the Dutch holdings of the MFA Boston to among the finest anywhere.

Dutch art of the 17th century is also a pillar of the NCMA’s European collection, one that has been showcased since the Museum opened to the public in 1956. Since then, this area of the collection has been complemented and enhanced

by several exhibitions and other programs, including Sinners & Saints, Darkness and Light: Caravaggio and His Dutch and Flemish Followers (1998), Rembrandt in America: Collecting and Connoisseurship (2011), and Small Treasures: Rembrandt, Vermeer, Hals, and Their Contemporaries (2014). Like the NCMA’s recent reimagining of the People’s Collection, the MFA Boston has been reconceptualizing their galleries of Dutch and Flemish art with the aim to tell more expansive stories. This collaboration highlights the new directions of exhibitions on this material over the last several years, emphasizing not just the excellence of the works on view but also the variety of stories they can tell.

The organizers of End Paper commissioned artist, bookbinder, and printmaker Tedd Anderson (@dirtyconsumer) to create a design that captures some of the character of the art book scene. His layered image, the graphic identity for the fair, weaves in the phrase End Paper. It will be screen printed live onto totes by La Boosh Printing at the three-day event.

When local artist Kristi Phillips approached the NCMA’s Art Reference Library in 2022 about the possibility of organizing an art book fair, it seemed like the perfect chance to engage with North Carolina’s thriving book arts and printed matter communities. With book and paper workshops at the Penland School of Craft, zine festivals found across the state, and more, North Carolina is a hub for contemporary print culture. An art book festival at the Museum would be the largest of its kind in Raleigh and provide a massive venue to support regional artists.

’ i As F rst Art Book Fair CM N e h T

Over a year in the making, End Paper: NCMA Art Book Fair, named after the sheet used to attach a block of pages to a book’s cover, takes place Friday, September 22, to Sunday, September 24. This family-friendly event will be packed with special tours, film screenings, and artist vendors from across the state. A wide selection of workshops and demonstrations are available throughout the weekend, including block printing, bookbinding, papermaking, calligraphy, risograph printing, zine making, linocut creation, and more. There is no cost of entry to the fair, but some workshops are ticketed.

This is the Art Reference Library’s first time participating in a large-scale public outreach program. Despite the Library’s indispensable role in supporting both Museum and community arts research, most NCMA visitors are not aware that they can access its collections and study space for free. For End Paper, the Library has organized a juried section and will select winners in six different categories. Selected works will then be purchased by the Library and lay the foundation for a new collection, capturing a snapshot of North Carolina’s contemporary print culture. As part of the Art Reference Library’s collection, these holdings will be available to view and handle by Museum visitors in the future.

End Paper is a collaboration between the NCMA and several North Carolina–based artists. Two of our co-organizers are Bill Fick and Kristi Phillips, neither of whom are strangers to building opportunities and communities around print culture. Fick is a Durham-based printmaker and lecturing fellow at Duke University. ECU alum Phillips is a local artist involved in several projects, including writing poetry for collab zines and cohosting printing workshops. To get to know our co-organizers a little more, I asked Bill and Kristi about their connection to their communities and what End Paper means to them.

andrew wang: How would you describe the printmaking/book arts culture in North Carolina?

bill fick: Very active and all over! I’ve run a community print studio in Durham for about 10 years [Super G Print Lab], and I marvel at how many printmakers and bookmakers there are in this area. They have all kinds of print interests. We also have some top-notch university art book collections. They aren’t super well known but worth taking the time to discover/visit.

kristi phillips: The book arts and printmaking culture in NC is diverse. There are many ways to create books or prints—from traditionalists in book arts, to up-and-coming zinesters and comics artists, to people printing on DIY presses in garages.

aw: How are you involved in your local printmaking/book arts community?

kp: I began a book pop-up (currently at Glas) after I realized that I could get involved in the arts scene firsthand. I started Triangle Screen Printers Guild the same year—just a group for ragtag printers to commune with each other.

bf: As mentioned, I help run a community print studio in Durham, and I’m also the director of the Zine Machine Printed Matter Festival that takes place every fall. When not doing that, my regular gig is teaching printmaking, drawing, and comics at Duke. The university and college print networks are very strong. Through them I’ve gotten to know printmakers all over the state.

aw: What do you hope to accomplish by helping co-organize the first art book fair at the NCMA?

kp: I hope to build something for and with the community by co-organizing with the NCMA. Zine and book fairs are not new to NC, and there are some great ones that inspired me to see it happen in Raleigh. I’d love for it to blossom into an event that people from around the world could take part in.

bf: Spreading the Gospel of Print! I think this book fair can be a special HQ event for prints and books; an event that brings makers and lovers of printed matter together in a fantastic public museum. Also, it’d be terrific if this event became recognized as a premier showcase of this kind of work—something recognized beyond North Carolina/the South.

aw: What aspects of the fair are you most excited about?

bf: All of it! There are so many terrific programs. BUT if I had to highlight [one thing], it’d be the vendor fair. Always exciting to see lots of original work available for purchase—or just to browse.

kp: I’m most excited to see people’s joy at sharing their artwork, skills, and passions with other artists and with fairgoers. And to see attendees get to experience an art book fair at a major museum like the NCMA is a dream. There’s no shortage of talent here, and this is another way to enjoy it together.

The Museum recently received a transformational donation of five 19th- and 20th-century paintings from Josie and Julian Robertson of New York, NY. This gift adds to the People’s Collection the first works by internationally renowned artists Pablo Picasso, Maurice de Vlaminck, Alfred Sisley, Emil Nolde, and Kees van Dongen, significantly growing and strengthening the NCMA’s modern art holdings. The dynamic cubist portrait by Picasso that is part of the bequest enters the collection as cultural institutions worldwide are commemorating the 50th anniversary year of the artist’s death.

Picasso’s Seated Woman Returns to Stay

Between 2001 and 2010, the Robertsons generously loaned works from their collection to the NCMA on three occasions, and Picasso’s Femme assise, fond rouge et jaune (Seated Woman, Red and Yellow Background) was included each time. In 2001 and 2008, it starred in two small focus exhibitions featuring early modern works from the Robertson collection. In 2010 curators installed it with the NCMA’s collection on the occasion of the opening of West Building. The loan was symbolic, as it coincided with the signing of the gift agreement that formalized the bequest of the five Robertson paintings.

In addition to the short-term display, the painting was included in the handbook of the collection published in 2010, where it was described as a promised gift from the Robertsons. Just as the opening of West Building marked the beginning of a new, expansive chapter in the NCMA’s history, the inclusion of the Picasso gift in the handbook offered a further demonstration of our institutional ambition and the increasing importance of the NCMA’s collection.

The Robertsons’ legendary collection included a number of Picassos, but that they felt a particular attachment to the NCMA’s painting was always clear. They were willing to loan their art, but it had to be timed precisely so that its absence from their New York apartment coincided with periods when they would be away. This accounts for the relatively brief displays of the 2001 and 2008 exhibitions. The 2010 installation in West Building was for the considerably longer period of five months, which Mr. Robertson bore with good grace. When the painting was returned to him and reinstalled in October 2010, it once again assumed pride of place in his Manhattan apartment as the largest and most important of his Picassos. It remained there until March of this year, when it traveled to its new permanent home in Raleigh.

Seated Woman, along with the four other modern paintings from the Robertsons, can be viewed in the 20th-Century Gallery in West Building.

Diedra McEntyre Director of Campus Planning and Facilities

length of service: 5 months

I oversee campus planning and design as they pertain to the physical development of aesthetics and improvements to the NCMA’s 164-acre campus, including its buildings, outdoor facilities, and Park. I also guide capital projects from an organizational and design perspective and administer the facility operations of the four Museum buildings.

I’m looking forward to seeing how the built environment can add to and enhance the museum experience. How can we “reimagine what’s possible” with our upcoming capital projects to continue to enrich museumgoers’ visits?

Perry Hurt Director of Conservation

length of service: 24 years

(25 in November)

I direct the long-term preservation of the collection and the development of preventive collections care strategies. This includes supervising the department’s staff and our many restoration and preservation projects and contributing to exhibitions and programming, particularly the new Conservation Gallery.

My time at the NCMA has been filled with great conservation projects; great relationships with staff, volunteers, and visitors; and of course great artworks. A highlight includes my paint history research, which informed the exhibitions Revolution in Paint (2006), Reunited: Francescuccio Ghissi’s St. John Altarpiece (2016–17), and the upcoming Seeing Red (2024).

Molly Hull

Accessibility and Inclusion Coordinator

length of service: 2 years

I help to create, coordinate, and support accessible and inclusive culture and programming at the Museum.

I’m excited to have worked on the All-Access Eco Trail, which launches this September in the Park.

Jill Taylor Manager of Teacher Programs and Resources

length of service: 23 years

I manage teacher workshops and resources for teaching with works of art across subject areas. In working with teachers, my goal is to honor their work, recognize their challenges, and create programs relevant to their needs. I collaborate with a team of educators at the NCMA to make these programs happen.

I enjoyed planning our second Summer Institute for Educators, a two-day workshop for teachers from across North Carolina. I loved being back in the galleries with educators and using works of art to talk about big ideas that shape our understanding of the world.

Wale Ejire Membership Manager

length of service: 3 years

I oversee all aspects of the NCMA’s membership program. In driving member engagement and communication and coordinating member events, I ensure our members have enriching experiences through all the Museum offers. In essence, it is my job to bring the People’s Collection to the people.

I take immense pride in the work my team does to enhance membership awareness and accessibility. By spreading the word about our Museum’s treasures and creating inclusive experiences, we can empower more individuals and new communities to embrace art and make it a part of their lives. Seeing the impact and joy our museum brings to our visitors keeps me enthused and motivated every day I come into work.

Rosa Cajahuaringa Housekeeping Supervisor

length of service: 12 years

I manage the housekeeping department’s staff and oversee its operations daily. I’m responsible for staff training, scheduling, and the inventorying of supplies and equipment. A large part of my job centers on coordinating with other departments to execute internal and external events and make sure the spaces are again ready for Museum visitors. I also direct State surplus transfers and assets.

At first, I found overseeing event setup and breakdown challenging, but now I feel very satisfied to accommodate the needs of programmers and event planners and to provide a welcoming atmosphere in the buildings. I find the new Ancient American galleries fascinating because of my background and am excited to help with upcoming programs in that space.

The Museum has around 175 employees. They work every day to maintain and secure the buildings, Park, and People’s Collection and to plan and execute special exhibitions and programming. Their efforts make the NCMA a compelling and joyful place that our members and guests want to return to again and again.

Swinginto Fall at the Park

Two new works of art will appear in the Museum Park this fall near the Welcome Center—Musical Swings and Daydreamer: Kinetic Musical Benches by the art and design studio Daily tous les jours (DTLJ) based in Montreal, Canada.

Founded by Mouna Andraos and Melissa Mongiat, DTLJ creates innovative public art projects that combine interactive art, urban design, and placemaking in cities around the world. In their words, “When transforming everyday habits in the city into collective experiences, we not only bring value to a neighborhood but we are addressing important urban issues, such as solitude or mobility. Our work intends to revive connections between communities and their city.”

Andraos and Mongiat describe their public art projects as “vehicles for joy and social connection” and the idea of “play” as the primary inspiration for their work. They strive to create works that are as inclusive as possible, accessible and welcoming to all ages and abilities. Through art and design, they are interested in exploring the mechanics of human cooperation and the idea of a shared common life in public spaces. Technology is often criticized for causing or enhancing social isolation and anxiety, whereas DTLJ employs technology as a creative tool to facilitate collaboration in their participatory works of art.

Musical Swings is an interactive swing set that makes music whenever a swing is activated by a person using it. Each of the ten swings on the set plays notes from one of four instruments— harp, piano, guitar, and vibraphone. The higher you swing, the higher the note plays. If you synchronize the movement of your swing with the person swinging next to you, your swings will play a melody based on your collaboration. As DTLJ describes the experience of the work, “It’s an intuitive game, where synchronized motion between participants unlocks secret melodies, encouraging cooperation.”

Daydreamer: Kinetic Musical Benches consists of three illuminated benches that play a chorus of voices, humming and harmonizing, as people slowly rotate or rock back and forth. According to DTLJ, “Rocking has been known to induce a state of daydreaming, proven to lessen stress and anxiety, while opening up the mind to be more intuitive, imaginative at finding solutions by simply letting go for a while.” When visitors on different benches start to synchronize their movements, they create a shared musical experience.

These exciting new Park art projects have been made possible by a significant gift from Pat and Tom Gipson, longtime patrons of the NCMA. The Gipsons’ tremendous support and generosity have brought numerous works of art to the NCMA, including Jeppe Hein’s Mirror Labyrinth NY, Hank Willis Thomas’s sculptural benches Ernest and Ruth, and Daniel Johnston’s large-scale ceramic work Installation 1-183, all in the Museum Park. They also donated Leonardo Drew’s monumental sculpture Number 235, located at the entrance to the Global Contemporary galleries in East Building.

Autumn Beauty

Look for the NCMA’s fall sunflower field starting in late September near the smokestack and Vollis Simpson’s Wind Machine in the Museum Park. The peak sunflower display takes place in late October. The planting contains a variety of sunflowers in shades of yellow, orange, and vermillion to create a vibrant fall landscape.

Meet Artist-Educator Quintin Neal

Each year the NCMA provides dynamic educational outreach programs for several hundred thousand K–12 students in North Carolina as well as a robust educator professional development program that serves thousands of teachers in the state. Museum educators reach students and teachers through on-site visits, virtual field trips, summer camps, in-person professional development workshops, and online courses. I spoke with Quintin Neal, an artist-educator who works in the Wake County Public School System, about his ongoing relationship with the NCMA.

How did you first connect to the NCMA?

When I was a junior at North Carolina Central University, we had a curator visit our class and talk about internships at the Museum. The chair of our art department encouraged me to apply. I was selected to work with the Education Department for a grant-funded initiative called the Big Picture project in 2010. We worked with teachers from all grades and subject areas to integrate art into the classroom.

We continue to recruit you to support our teacher programs decades later. Can you describe the workshop you led at last year's teacher institute?

I led a workshop at the end of the summer institute with 50 teachers to visualize their communities of practice, which was the theme of the institute. Teachers worked in three dimensions to represent a village and then put their villages together in a giant installation. Teachers collaborated in small groups, using art to cultivate connections between what they already do in the classroom and new ways of thinking. They used art as a way to catapult to new ideas.

16 ARTIST SPOTLIGHT

How has the NCMA supported you in your community of practice?

The NCMA provided a spark to inspire me as an artist and an educator. The Museum brings out my creativity and helps me grow when I attend workshops, events, and exhibitions. It brings me joy and connects me to others. In my art room at Bugg Elementary, I use the collection and resources frequently as part of my teaching. I share what’s going on at the Museum with my colleagues and students’ families. I’ve formed relationships over the years with all of the other museum educators and teaching artists. I’ve enjoyed seeing how the Museum has evolved over the years.

Tell us a little bit about your art. My artistry is one-of-a-kind: hand-painted hats, original beaded wood necklaces, and sea glass earrings. I design these accessories to give the wearer confidence and express their own style.

In addition to working with teacher programs, you frequently work with other audiences. What’s one of your most joyful memories working with children?

Every camp at the Museum has its own flair and theme. I love connecting art projects to the themes and seeing the unique approach from every camper. I love the last day of camp—they are so happy to have so much work and to show it off and share it with their families. It means

the world to me to see their pride, to see them excited about their growing passion. They might have found a new love from being at camp. That’s important. When I facilitate family programs, I enjoy seeing the bonds and family dynamics as they work. I love observing their hands-on creativity as they come up with something beautiful together.

What does it mean to be a partner?

How does the NCMA embody that definition/understanding?

Being a partner means meeting your

partner where they are. It means growing in various directions together. For me, partnering with the NCMA has been a space and avenue for growth. Through my involvement in events and with people here I’ve been able to constantly grow.

SECCA, an affiliate of the North Carolina Museum of Art since 2007, now shares a curatorial team and vision with the NCMA to produce original exhibitions and programs with international and American contemporary artists. It is a division of the NC Department of Natural and Cultural Resources and located just a few minutes north of downtown in the Reynolda Historic District of Winston-Salem. Admission and visitor parking is free. Learn more at secca.org.

SECCA’s Autumn Bounty

Autumn is a lovely time to enjoy the outdoor spaces and gather for art, music, and culture at the Southeastern Center for Contemporary Art (SECCA). Guests will experience a full bounty of fresh exhibitions and programs. They’ll also enjoy spending time in the newly furnished rooms of the historic Hanes House and get their first glimpse of our future plans for the buildings and grounds.

Now on view through October 15, Kukuli Verlarde: Corpus features 15 ceramic sculptures by the Peruvian American artist arranged to represent the annual Corpus Christi festival in Cusco, Peru. Verlarde’s works reference pre-Colombian forms and symbolism and assert that Indigenous sacred entities and worldviews survived in the face of colonialism.

Maya Brooks, assistant curator of contemporary art, organized two new exhibitions for the fall. Opening September 21, If These Walls Could Talk showcases site-specific murals by William Downs (Atlanta, GA), Neka King (Atlanta, GA), and Raj Bunnag (Durham, NC). Using line drawing and printmaking, the artists provide social analyses of present and sometimes future concepts. Visitors get up-close views of all the details that go into such large works.

In November Brooks opens The Threads We Follow, a show of fiber art with 12 artists from around the world. Many of these artists contemplate the historic devaluation of textiles based upon their association with craft and domestic labor, activities in which women and communities of color have long interpreted social politics. This exhibition examines contemporary understandings of the malleability of identity, with artists employing materials such as thread, fabric, and even hair to explore the uses and values of textiles in private and social life.

A robust calendar of programs and events complements our exhibitions. These include fireside talks with staff and artists, Second Saturday family activities, live demonstrations, and gallery tours.

This fall brings a new chapter for the Hanes House, as we celebrate the work that has gone into reshaping the home of industrialist James G. Hanes as an imaginative space that can better serve today’s audiences. Works by notable North Carolina artists now adorn the home’s stately walls. The building boasts a spacious living room, a well-appointed study, a modern conference room, and a serenely landscaped terrace. Whether guests are coming in to get some work done, find a quiet place to read, meet with clients, or simply unwind in the presence of great art and design, the Hanes House provides a welcoming, inspiring atmosphere.

Visitors can purchase Hanes House merchandise and artisanal goods at SECCA’s new museum shop, which opens in mid-November. In addition to clothing, books, and gifts, guests will discover exhibition-related items and original art from regional artists. The shop broadens SECCA’s partnerships with North Carolina artists and businesses while providing further support for our exhibitions and programs.

There’s always something happening at SECCA, so be sure to check our calendar at secca.org. We look forward to seeing you soon.

Your Mem ART & b COMMUNITYership Matters

The NCMA consistently captivates visitors, leaving them with lasting memories and a desire to return. The Museum is a place where art and serenity intertwine, where visitors can lose themselves amid tranquil landscapes and thought-provoking exhibitions and galleries, and where people feel part of a vibrant community. The memories forged on a visit become stories worth sharing with friends and loved ones. Your NCMA membership matters because it opens the door to a world of awe-inspiring art, memorable experiences, and a wonderful sense of belonging.

This museum is absolutely my favorite art museum in the Triangle.

The most welcoming, engaging, and interesting collection of art in this region and the state.

A perfect place to spend time with a friend on a rainy day.

Thank you for being such an important part of our community. I cannot imagine my childhood or my young adulthood without you.

Thank you for this gorgeous space and sharing thoughtful and meaningful art that gives viewers an opportunity to learn and reflect. And of course for keeping it admission free!!

I love coming here. I have been coming since I was a child, and I am always inspired and amazed by the art. Especially the sculptures that look light and airy. Even if I have seen [them] numerous times, I am still amazed.

My family always enjoys our visits to the Museum! My parents took me when I was growing up, and now I get to do the same for my 7-year-old.

It’s always so magical whenever I visit. I always come back to show my friends what’s in store. I simply love it.
