Mission Statement

The Georgia Museum of Art shares

the mission of the University of Georgia

to support and to promote teaching,

research and service. Specifically, as

a repository and educational instrument

of the visual arts, the museum exists

to collect, preserve, exhibit and interpret

significant works of art.

Partial support for the exhibitions and programs

at the Georgia Museum of Art is provided by

the W. Newton Morris Charitable Foundation,

the Friends of the Georgia Museum of Art and

the Georgia Council for the Arts through the

appropriations of the Georgia General Assembly.

The Council is a partner agency of the National

Endowment for the Arts. Individuals, foundations

and corporations provide additional support

through their gifts to the University of Georgia

Foundation. The Georgia Museum of Art is

ADA compliant; the M. Smith Griffith Auditorium

is equipped for the hearing-impaired.

Ms. Georgia Strange

Because we have been finishing our self-study for reaccreditation over the past year, a time-consuming but worthwhile process

of self-examination, the staff and I have been talking about how

we “fit” at the University of Georgia, as we pride ourselves on

our statewide mission of community service, which is not only

complementary but essential to our academic mission as

well. We are both fish and fowl, as it were, devoted to lifelong

learners in our lay communities of service as well as to our

immediate audience of students, faculty and staff at the

University of Georgia. It is my belief, and part of my vision,

if you will, for the museum over the past two decades, that

in order to reach our goals, we have to do our homework: at

the Georgia Museum of Art, teaching and service are both

strengthened as core values by and dependent on scholarship.

Research then is the pillar of our mission.

So, it was gratifying and illuminating for me when our editor

and head of the communications department here, Hillary

Brown, carried out a study for me on the successes of our

internship program. Not counting the numerous classes from the university and other colleges in northeast Georgia who

use the museum, I asked Hillary to determine the number of students who have had internships, volunteer or for-credit,

who have been in our work-study program or who have been classified as taking museum-study courses.

Since 1988, we have had more than 500 interns and work-study

students pass through the halls of the museum. Many have

worked for more than one semester or in more than one depart-

ment. Annelies Mondi, now our deputy director, was a student

assistant back in 1988, and several other staff members also started

out as our students: Lynn Boland, now Pierre Daura Curator of

European Art; Carissa DiCindio, now curator of education; Mary

Koon, now in our department of publications; Christy Sinksen, now

a registrar; and Hillary.

Those of our students who have managed to leave Athens (by

far the larger number) have gone on to impressive careers in the

arts, in academics, in public relations, in graphic design and in

numerous other fields. Anthony Goicolea, who spoke here in

January and recently had a major midcareer survey open at the

Jepson Center in Savannah, is one of the most notable names,

but we hear from our former students frequently. They tell us how much they learned in their time here and what an

invaluable experience working behind the scenes at a museum was. We appreciate equally everything they do, and we

learn as much from them as they do from us.

Quiet Spirit, Skillful Hand: The Graphic Work of Clare LeightonNovember 19, 2011–February 3, 2012

Organized by the Mint Museum of Art in Charlotte, N.C., this exhibition includes images from the Mint’s Pratt

Collection, one of the largest collections of Clare Leighton’s work in the country, and spans Leighton’s career

from 1923 to 1965. “Quiet Spirit, Skillful Hand: The Graphic Work of Clare Leighton” provides a full survey of

Leighton’s career, from her earliest prints in the 1920s that depict the labors of the English working classes

to a selection of her rarely seen watercolors. Unique to the collection is a set of 12 Wedgwood plates titled

“New England Industries,” for which Leighton designed the transfer-printed images. Among the exhibition’s

highlights are the prints that resulted from Leighton’s early visits to North America, including “The Breadline,

New York” and “Snow Shovellers, New York,” as well as the artist’s entire Canadian Lumber Camp series.

A full-color catalogue of the exhibition will be available for sale in the Museum Shop and online.

Buon Natale: Holiday Prints by Elizabeth Bailey November 19–December 31, 2011

This exhibition features Elizabeth Bailey’s holiday wood-

cuts, which have a distinctly Italian flavor. A Georgia

native and an art history professor at Wesleyan College

in Macon, Ga., Bailey has studied art in Cortona and

Florence, Italy, and has recently begun to study art in

England, France and Germany. The Italian influence

on her holiday prints is evident not only in such titles as

“Ave Maria Grazia Plena,” but also in subject, compo-

sition and style. Bailey has exhibited her work throughout

the United States and in Italy.

Lycett ChinaDecember 3, 2011–March 4, 2012

Edward Lycett (American, b. England, 1833–1910) was an important porcelain painter who immigrated to New York

from Great Britain in 1861. By the early 1880s, Lycett and his family had settled in Atlanta and opened a studio devoted

to porcelain decoration with the ancillary mission of educating young women. The studio secured its porcelain blanks

from a Haviland firm near Limoges, France. Lycett china became a staple of upper-middle-class Georgia society and is

found today in many Georgia homes. Although Lycett is best known for its white china with gold trim, most of the 30

pieces in this exhibition are paint decorated.

Co-curators: Dale Couch, adjunct curator, Henry D. Green Center for the Study of the Decorative Arts,

and Michelle Miller, independent scholar

Gallery: Martha Thompson Dinos Gallery


Introduction to the CentersDecember 3, 2011–March 4, 2012

One of the key elements in GMOA’s expansion was the

construction of its Study Centers in the Humanities, four

named units containing archives that supplement the

museum’s collection and promote hands-on research.

This small exhibition serves as an introduction to the

Henry D. Green Center for the Study of the Decorative Arts

and follows the introduction to its sister centers––the C.L.

Morehead Jr. Center for the Study of American Art, the

Jacob Burns Foundation Center (devoted to the study of

prints and drawings) and the Pierre Daura Center––on

view through November 20. A variety of objects acces-

sioned over the past 40 years, including the first piece of

furniture purchased by Green, as well as recent acquisi-

tions of pottery and silver will be on view.

Images of the Midwest from the CollectionDecember 17, 2011–February 27, 2012

This special, temporary display complements “Dale Nichols: Transcending

Regionalism” and features images of the Midwest by American artists. The

works are drawn from the permanent collection of the Georgia Museum of

Art as well as from objects on extended loan to the museum from the collec-

tion of Jason Schoen, Princeton, N.J. These American Scene images of the

Midwest provide an aesthetic and historical context for Nichols’ paintings.

Dale Nichols: Transcending RegionalismDecember 17, 2011–February 27, 2012

Organized by the Bone Creek Museum of Agrarian Art in David City, Neb., this retrospective exhibition presents Nebraska native

Dale Nichols’ nostalgic images of rural America. Paintings dating from 1935 to 1972 establish Nichols not only as a Regionalist in the

company of such great artists as Grant Wood and Thomas Hart Benton, but one who transcended the confines of the genre to achieve

universal success. This exhibition represents a recollection of Nichols’ years on the farm in Nebraska but manifests those memories

in a variety of styles and places. Nichols held firm to his midwestern roots while he traveled the world in search of adventure and truth.

Imbued with the inherent problems of isolation, poverty and inequality within American society, Nichols’ art references and upholds

an American agrarian ideal.

Bill Viola: Collected Work, 1977–80December 3, 2011–February 19, 2012

Pioneering video artist Bill Viola helped make the medium

vital to contemporary art in the 1970s and 1980s and

remains among its most important practitioners. The artist

describes this work as “a collection of five independent

works which, taken as a whole, describe the stages of

a personal journey using images of transition—from day to

night, motion to stillness, time to timelessness, etc. Each

work explores specific video techniques and technologies,

in combination with the spatial potentials of stereo sound.”

The Kress Foundation

The Kress Project

Generously supported by the Samuel H. Kress Founda-

tion, the Kress Project is part of a two-year initiative

celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Georgia Museum

of Art’s Samuel H. Kress Study Collection. The project

is among GMOA’s most prominent efforts to enlarge and

diversify the museum’s audience during its reopening

year. The primary goal of the Kress Project is to promote

the study of and response to these objects by the public

at large and investigate new ways to interpret the

collection.

Since its arrival in Athens, and especially since the early

1990s, the Kress Study Collection has been the key

motivation for GMOA’s research in early Italian art.

Today, the Kress Gallery prominently features our 12

Kress paintings from the Trecento, Renaissance and

Baroque periods, as well as drawings, paintings and

sculpture and period furniture on extended loan.

Call for Entries

GMOA is soliciting responses both within the United

States and internationally through February 1, 2012,

to the 12 trecento, Renaissance and Baroque paintings

in the museum’s Kress Gallery.

Submissions must be inspired by a work in the collec-

tion, which can be viewed in person or online. Entries

may be in a variety of creative media, including but

not limited to:

• Academic writing

• Creative writing

• Visual art

• Choreography

• Fashion design

• Film

• Music

All ages and education levels are encouraged to

participate. Entries will be posted to the website

throughout the year. Up to 24 winners will win $500

and have their work published in a multimedia book.

Katherine Jones, Publications Intern

Samuel H. Kress opened the first of his 264 S.H. Kress & Co. Five and Ten Cent Stores in Memphis, Tenn., in 1896. Locals admired the well-designed stores not only for their quality

and inexpensive merchandise but also as prominent landmarks. Kress opened a store in 1915 in Athens at

153 East Clayton Street in the Talmadge building, where Flirt Fashions is located today. Shortly after opening

his chain of five-and-ten-cent stores, Kress began collecting European art with the intention of one day

sharing his collection with the public. In December 1938, the Kress flagship store at the corner of Fifth Avenue

and Thirty-Ninth Street in New York City featured Giorgione’s “Allendale Nativity,” a recent acquisition

by Kress, in its holiday window display (the building was demolished in 1980). Although he made his first

donation to the Metropolitan Museum of Art and afterwards donated more than 400 paintings and sculptures

to the National Gallery of Art, Kress wanted to make great works of art available to people in towns outside

of major urban centers across the United States. The Samuel H. Kress Foundation was established in 1929

as part of this initiative. Although Kress died in 1955, his brother Rush H. Kress continued to manage the

activities of the foundation and oversee the distribution of the remaining works in the collection. In 1976, the

Foundation published a complete, fully illustrated catalogue of the Kress collection to make the works even

more accessible to the public. Today, the Kress Foundation continues to be active in the academic and the

art world. The foundation awards grants for dissertation research in art history as well as research fellowships

and fellowships in art conservation.

The Kress storefront in Columbia, S.C., now houses an

architecture firm.

The keynote address will be by Georgia

native Deanne Deavours (formerly

Levison). Deavours is a premier dealer

in Georgia and in the nation, and she will

be speaking about her long and distin-

guished career in the field of American

decorative arts, in which she is acclaimed

for her skill and connoisseurship. She was

also a moving force in the establishment

of Georgia plain-style furniture as a topic

of study and collecting within the state.

Deavours authored much of the “Neat

Pieces” catalogue in connection to the

exhibition of the same name, which

introduced Georgia vernacular furniture

to the canon. She has also published in

the Magazine Antiques and worked with

Albert Sack to rewrite “The New Fine

Points of Furniture” (known commonly as

“Good, Better and Best”), a guide to

American furniture connoisseurship. She

has lectured widely throughout the nation.

Dale Couch, adjunct curator of decorative

arts at GMOA, noted that “Deanne

Deavours’ outstanding career is one

example of how the field of Georgia

decorative arts is connected to the

national scene. She is a native daughter

who has brought home national standards

of collecting and scholarship. She has

fostered many of the important private and

museum collections within the state and

she has been an indispensable supporter

of Georgia Museum of Art programs. She

is an invaluable member of the Decorative

Arts Advisory Committee.”

Other topics at the upcoming symposium

include Lycett porcelain painting in Atlanta,

pottery archeology in Washington County,

Windsor chair construction, the African

Donor Spotlight: Peggy Galis

Homecoming

P eggy Heard Galis, who has been on

GMOA’s Decorative Arts Advisory

Committee since its inception, is

central to the museum’s decorative

arts program. She is particularly suitable for

supporting the program’s mission, as decorative

arts of Georgia form its core. Peggy is not only a

lifelong resident of our region, but she also descends

from many of its pioneer settlers, including Stephen

Heard, a colorful figure in Georgia’s history, who

became one of its earliest governors.

Peggy’s interests are not limited to the decorative

arts but embrace aspects of southern culture

as diverse as foodways and linguistics; southern

literature and antiquarian tales; historical architec-

ture and gardens; civil rights history and Alabama

settlement of Georgians. She is almost as well known

in Alabama as Georgia and has a similar command

of its history. She inhales ideas and is as thirsty

for knowledge as anyone I know. Her command of

regional history goes far beyond the casual old-fash-

ioned versions; she is as up to date with historical

scholarship as many active professionals.

Without Peggy and her many and various contribu-

tions, our success would be unimaginable. I am

indebted to her on many levels for all that she has

given: objects, personal encouragement, social

grace and sheer enthusiasm! Peggy has been an

important ambassador not only for the Henry D.

Green Center, but for all of Athens. Her hospitality

and charm are legendary and are synonymous with

events surrounding the Green Symposia.

Peggy has given two chief objects to the collections

that are both extremely rare and significant. The

miniature portrait of Augustin Clayton (top left), an

influential early Athenian, is one of our highest

quality regional works of art. It is attributable to

Joseph Pierre Picôt de Clorivière, a Frenchman

working in the Piedmont in the early 19th century.

Picot’s work is likely among the highest quality

of all work in any media that was produced in this

region in its early period of settlement. The two

chairs Peggy recently donated (opposite) are the

finest examples of their type known, and the last of

this quality known that were not already in museum

collections. They evidence a pronounced Franco-

Germanic influence and make an important state-

ment on the diversity of our early settlement. The

chairs have more in common with examples from

Quebec or Louisiana than with those of the upper

South and are among the most notable develop-

ments in the Piedmont style. Peggy has long had

these chairs, and they were centerpieces in her

home. It was a sacrifice to donate them, and we all are

indebted to her and her husband Denny. According

to our director, Bill Eiland, “Peggy is much like the

objects of material culture we treasure: she teaches,

she inspires, she enlightens.”

Even if we could have achieved so much without

Peggy, it would not have been nearly as gratifying.

She enriches every event, program or entity that

touches her.

Dale L. Couch, Adjunct Curator of Decorative Arts

Peggy has given two chief objects to the collections that are both extremely rare & significant.

The Sixth Henry D. Green Symposium of the Decorative Arts • February 2–4, 2012

The Henry D. Green Center for the Study of the Decorative Arts has announced the dates for its sixth Henry D. Green Symposium of the Decorative Arts, with the title and theme of “Homecoming.” The title represents our return to the Georgia Museum of Art’s wonder-ful facility, the return of the Billups portraits to Georgia and the return of the symposium to Georgia-related topics.

American presence in the decorative arts

of the South, an analysis of the work of

Gene Thomas, historical house restoration

and southern needlework and southern

clockmakers. Ashley Callahan will serve as

guest curator for a show of Gene Thomas’

important Colonial Revival carpentry, and

Michelle Miller will co-organize with Couch

an exhibition of Lycett porcelain painting.

These exhibitions will meld with the new

permanent Forio and Odum galleries to

provide the attendees of the symposium

with much new material to absorb.

The symposium will be held at the

Georgia Center for Continuing Education,

and evening events will be at GMOA.

Shuttle bus service will be offered.

Registration forms will be mailed. To

update your contact information or to add

a friend to the mailing list please call

Latin American Film Festival: Immigration and Transnational Experiences

“Precious Knowledge” Thursday, September 15, 6:30 p.m.M. Smith Griffith AuditoriumIn this documentary (2010) directed by Ari Palos and

become academic warriors and community leaders in

Tucson, Arizona’s embattled ethnic studies classes while

cial guests Palos and McGinnis will speak about the film

“Norteado”Thursday, September 22, 6:30 p.m.M. Smith Griffith AuditoriumRigoberto Pérezcano’s debut feature (2009) is the ac-

count of one man’s dogged determination to win a better

life for himself and his family. Andres hails from Oaxaca

in the southern mountains of Mexico. Like many before

him, he engages an unscrupulous, people-trafficking

“coyote” to get him across the U.S. border, but he’s in-

evitably conned and left stranded and cashless in Tijuana

“Los que se quedan”Thursday, September 29, 7 p.m.M. Smith Griffith AuditoriumThis intimate documentary (2008) follows a number

of families left behind by loved ones who have crossed

the U.S. border in search of better opportunities.

Examining the emotional cost of long-term estrange-

ment, directors Juan Carlos Rulfo and Carlos

Hagerman find rich cinematic metaphors in the de-

serted, newly constructed homes on the highway, their

empty rooms a powerful reminder of the absence of
