president and chairman’s report We are pleased to announce that the twelve months covered by this report (September 1, 2008–August 31, 2009) again saw a balanced budget in spite of continued economic challenges. Thanks to the hard work and commitment of everyone at the Milwaukee Art Museum, the Museum remained vibrant and its high-quality programming continued during one of the largest economic downturns in generations. The Museum’s exhibition and education programs again drew national attention and critical acclaim, with nearly 300,000 visitors taking part. And the feature exhibition program offered new ways to engage with art, shed light on a great master painter, and delivered a double-feature, of sorts, that was not to be missed: Act/React: Interactive Art, the first exhibition of its kind in an art museum to present intuitive, digitally developed interactive art; Jan Lievens: A Dutch Master Rediscovered, which spotlighted an artist who worked within Rembrandt’s circle; and the two-part American Originals exhibitions, The Eight and American Modernisms and The Artistic Furniture of Charles Rohlfs, which continues to travel nationwide. But these accomplishments came with sacrifice as well. For in this economic recession, it was also necessary to tighten the budget and make difficult decisions regarding expense reduction and staffing. While no organization wants to make these adjustments, few would disagree with the need to do so. We were pleased to see a plan for this fiscal year that included key elements designed to strengthen visitor experiences, enhance education programs, and build on our decades-long tradition of world-class exhibitions. These accomplishments are even more meaningful in today’s economic climate. The Museum continues to benefit from its strong membership base, support groups, volunteer corps, and Board. We would like to extend our deep gratitude to the many thousands of loyal Members, and many hundreds of volunteers and docents who provide countless hours of service to the Museum. Without their support, we could not effectively run the Museum.

We also thank the Board of Trustees for the continued dedication, support, advice, and guidance in helping us make the Museum great. It is an honor to serve as the leadership of the Milwaukee Art Museum Board. As we look forward to two major anniversaries, in 2011, ten years since the completion of the Quadracci Pavilion, the Calatrava-designed addition, and in 2013, the 125th anniversary of the Museum’s founding, plans are underway to celebrate our history and prepare for our future. In the months ahead, Museum Board leadership, along with Director Dan Keegan and his staff, will continue work on these plans, which will include sustaining support for the next generation of museum-goers, encouraging legacy gifts, and honoring those who, over the decades, have contributed so much to making this great institution possible.

W. Kent Velde

Thank you for your support through your membership and annual fund contributions.

director’s report Fiscal year 2009, as with fiscal year 2008, presented the Milwaukee Art Museum with unique challenges given the state of the global economy and its impact locally. Thanks to continued community and Member support, the Board of Trustees’ guidance, and the staff’s prudent fiscal management, the Museum was again able to finish the fiscal year with a balanced budget; however, it was not an easy task. The Museum faced reductions in staff and programs, refocused, and delivered on its core strengths—nationally acclaimed exhibitions and education programs. We proved that even in difficult times, and working with less, we are committed to delivering the highest standards in all of our programming. This period of adjustment by necessity was also an opportune time to assess the state of Museum operations. We developed and implemented several key initiatives as a result. Central to our strategic vision for the Museum is creating solutions to address the needs of changing visitor demographics. National data indicates that a new “participatory” culture is in full swing, with a new generation of tech-savvy cultural consumers accustomed to having multiple information options and desiring to do more. The Department of Visitor Experience was newly created in fiscal year 2009, led by Bambi Grajek-Specter, to oversee and bring new perspectives to the broader task of ensuring that visitors are provided with dynamic and memorable experiences that allow them to participate more fully. This includes developing customer-relations training, conducting daily building-condition inspections, providing staff with cross-training, and implementing regular visitor surveys to collect valuable feedback. It may sound simple, but putting visitors first is an important step in ensuring we build new lifelong audiences. A cross-department technology team was also formed and charged with building the next generation of Museum interactive guides. Thanks to a partnership with Time Warner Communications that will enable us to utilize wireless communications throughout the Museum, this will soon become reality. This Wi-Fi connectivity means we will employ the newest forms of multimedia guides for exhibitions and the Collection. Look for the launch of a new iPod Touch guide in fall 2010 with the opening of the exhibition European Design since 1985: Shaping the New Century. This development coincides with another major initiative to digitize the Museum’s entire Collection. At this writing,

| 2009 annual report

3,713 works of art from the Collection are now available for viewing on the Museum’s website, mam.org. This past year also saw the development of major new initiatives in education. Under the leadership of Director of Education Brigid Globensky, the Museum strengthened its family programs, provided guided curriculum-based tours to tens of thousands of children, and oversaw the implementation of the Museum’s new Kohl’s Art Generation programs, in partnership with Kohl’s Department Stores. Kohl’s awarded the Museum a $1 million grant to initiate a broad spectrum of family programs through the Kohl’s Art Generation program. The Kohl’s Art Generation Gallery and Studio on-site; Kohl’s Color Wheels mobile creation station that travels to area schools, community centers, and festivals; and the related Kohl’s Art Generation website (mam.org/artgeneration) have increased the opportunities for kids and families to engage with art, and have effectively carved out popular kid-friendly zones in the Museum, in the community, and online for endless explorations in creativity! Central to these initiatives and to building lifelong audiences is the art the Museum presents. Chief Curator Brady Roberts, who arrived in March of 2009, and Laurie Winters, who has been appointed Director of Exhibitions, are working together to maintain our commitment to presenting international-caliber exhibitions, building a world-class Collection, contributing groundbreaking scholarship, and fostering global partnerships that enhance our national ranking as one of the top museums. Continuing this commitment is more difficult now than ever, owing to the increased complexities and expenses of borrowing art, insurance,

and legal affairs, and the concerns of lenders in a post-9/11 world. Laurie and Brady are charged with presenting the very best in exhibitions and the Collection. Our mission to collect, preserve, and present art in order to enlighten and educate our visitors deserves our focused attention. The result is a wonderful lineup of exhibitions in the year ahead, and changes underway for freshening up the presentation of the Collection. I hope you will agree that these are important advancements in light of the economic challenges of 2009 and with us still today. But these changes are necessary even in good times, because museums are dynamic institutions that must respond to the everchanging needs and expectations of its audiences. That we preserve and present the history of human visual creativity affords us unique opportunities to build new

learning pathways and strengthen experiences for our 300,000 visitors annually. As we enter our anniversary cycle, the 10th anniversary of the completion of the Calatrava-designed Quadracci Pavilion addition in 2011 and the 125th anniversary of the Museum’s founding in 2013, the community of Museum supporters can take pride in knowing that the future is bright and the opportunities for advancement abundant. Thank you for your support.

curatorial report The Museum’s Curatorial Department saw a change in leadership in fiscal year 2009. Brady Roberts was appointed Chief Curator and Laurie Winters was promoted to Director of Exhibitions. Roberts and Winters, together with the department, made significant changes to set into motion a new curatorial direction for the institution. A number of galleries were reinstalled this fiscal year to place masterpieces from the vault on view and to implement new interpretive renovations: the American Collections, The Eight, 20th-Century Design, and the Contemporary Galleries. The Museum continued its partnership with Chipstone Foundation to complete the reconception of the American Collections galleries (begun in fiscal year 2008), which opened in October. The reinstallation, comprised of three themed sections that explore the ideas and aesthetics at play in the decorative arts of colonial America, received significant national and local attention for its innovative interpretative strategies. In February, for The Eight and American Modernisms, important holdings from the Museum’s Collection were supplemented with loans from the Terra Foundation for American Art and the New Britain Museum of American Art, with whom the Museum organized the traveling exhibition. The Museum concurrently presented in The Eight gallery modern works made within the same time period, further confirming the strength of its American collection. With the ongoing support of the Mae E. Demmer Charitable Trust, Melissa Buchanan joined the Museum’s curatorial team as Assistant Curator of 20th-Century Design, and in May, re-opened the Museum’s 20th-Century Design Gallery to the public. The bright new gallery features Collection highlights such as Marcel Breuer’s aluminum Reclining Chair and Ettore Sottsass’s postmodern “Carlton” Bookcase, as well as design objects Richard and Jody Goisman loaned from their collection. Mel used color as the organizing principle, diverging from usual museum organizations based on chronology, artistic style, or material. The results are visually engaging and reflect the Museum’s commitment to thought-provoking, original installations of the Collection. The Contemporary Galleries were reinstalled in July, returning visitor favorites such as Robert Gober’s Untitled and Cornelia Parker’s Edge of England to the gallery floor. The installation, spearheaded by Chief

Curator Brady Roberts, highlights major works from the Collection, from Neo-Expressionist paintings to newly acquired monumental photography. Thanks to generous funding from the Lynde and Harry Bradley Foundation, the department implemented a new collections management system (TMS, The Museum System) that is used by museums worldwide. The Registrars Department and the Librarian/Archivist led and completed the successful transition from the Museum’s current database to TMS. TMS allows for more sophisticated cataloguing and research of the Collection, in addition to tracking exhibitions, loans, and the archives. In the design archives, A/V Librarian Beret Balestrieri Kohn made headway into the full organization of the Brooks Stevens archives, including digitally scanning photographic materials. The Museum consulted with archives expert Tim Ericson to assist in cataloguing these archives in the new collections database. Under the direction of Librarian/Archivist Heather Winter, the Museum’s George Peckham Miller Art Research Library continued to serve the research needs of staff, docents, students, teachers, and researchers. Through generous support from the Alice and Lucia Stern Library Fund, a worldwide catalogue exchange program, and numerous private donations, the library added important resources to its collection, including the Dawn of Photography: French Daguerreotypes, 1839–1855; Frank Lloyd Wright Drawings: Masterworks from the Frank Lloyd Wright Archives; and the fourvolume Clement Greenberg: The Collected Essays and Criticism, among others. Located on the West Mezzanine Level of the Museum, the library actively engages the public through behind-the-scenes tours and rotating case exhibitions. In 2008–2009, case exhibitions featured selections from the Museum’s rare book collection, including volume one of The Complete Work of Rembrandt by Wilhelm von Bode and Cornelis Hofstede de Groot (Paris: Charles Sedelmeyer, 1897– 1906; No. 117 of 575) and the rare Frank Lloyd Wright,

Acquisitions

In Conservation, Jim DeYoung, Chris Niver, and Tim Ladwig conserved over seventy prints and drawings, including all the prints in the exhibition Catesby, Audubon, and the Discovery of a New World. In addition, approximately three hundred prints and drawings were matted and framed for exhibition and loan over the course of the year. Framer Mark Dombek built, modified, or conserved over thirty frames for exhibition, largely for works by The Eight artists in the Museum’s Collection. Associate Objects Conservator Terri White focused on objects in the reinstallation of the 20th-Century Design Gallery and on objects on loan to The Artistic Furniture of Charles Rohlfs exhibition. With the assistance of two summer interns, Emily Gaustad and Diana Jaskierny, Terri completed conservation cleaning of The Last of the Spartans (ca. 1892), a large marble sculpture by Gaetano Trentanove.

The Museum proudly acquired, thanks to a gift from Christine Symchych, the monumental photograph Flooded Cell #2 by contemporary artist James Casebere. The artist created the work through a painstaking process meant to materialize the architecture of a space from the memory of others. Casebere pieced together the accounts of terrorist suspects, built an elaborate model, and photographed his construction, which has a deceptively painterly appearance.

Other conservation activity included the treatment by private conservators of paintings by Robert Henri (Wyoming Valley, Pennsylvania, 1903, oil on canvas), Arthur B. Davies (Rhythms, 1910, oil on canvas), and Berand Cornelis Koekkoek (La Vallee de L’Ahr, 1841, oil on canvas). Photos documenting the progressive stages of the Koekkoek painting’s varnish removal were exhibited on an LCD screen alongside the painting in the gallery. Lastly, the Museum’s Conservation Lab saw a number of visitors. The Museum’s American Arts Society support group sponsored an all-day event that focused on the care and preservation of textiles, and classes from the University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee, Milwaukee Institute of Art & Design, Carroll University, and Beloit College, as well as the Museum’s docents and other support group members, enjoyed behindthe-scenes tours.

The Museum made significant acquisitions in each of the curatorial departments through purchases and donations. Some of these acquisitions added to existing Collection strengths, while others ventured into new territory for the institution.

New York–based collectors Dorothy and Herbert Vogel gifted the Museum fifty artworks as part of their Fifty Works for Fifty States project. In keeping with their history of civil service, the Vogels recently worked with the National Gallery of Art to gift fifty works from their collection to one public art institution in each of the fifty states. The Milwaukee Art Museum was selected to represent Wisconsin based on the merits of its contemporary art programming. The cutting-edge, interactive Bar at the Folies-Bergère (after Manet), which was on display in the Impressionism gallery in 2007, entered the Museum’s Collection thanks to Stephen and Nancy Einhorn. Up-and-coming artists Wafaa Bilal and Shawn Lawson contemporized Edouard Manet’s original Impressionist masterpiece from 1882 by transforming the barmaid, Suzon, from a painted figure into an animated “real person” who can respond with a variety of moods based on visitors’ movements and gestures. The Museum also acquired important objects for its growing Asian and African areas. Mr. and Mrs. Richard W. Cutler donated Canton Harbor, which is an important nineteenth-century Chinese School painting that shows minute details of the cultural exchange between China and the West around 1825. A bequest by Laurence P. Rathsack added three key ancient Chinese vessels and two African objects (a Sowei mask and a ceremonial blade) to the Collection.


curatorial report

The design and decorative arts collection was augmented as well. After The Finest in the Western Country: Wisconsin Decorative Arts 1820–1900, the Museum purchased a hanging wall cupboard by Wisconsin furniture maker John Cleveland. After Remains: Contemporary Artists and the Material Past, the Museum purchased Beth Lipman’s stunning glass still-life sculpture Laid Table (Still Life with Metal Pitcher), using funds designated for glass acquisitions. Joan Barnett continued her family’s support of the studio glass collection with the gift of a sculpture by Ginny Ruffner, and the American Arts & Crafts Movement collection was strengthened with the gift of a silver “Nasturtium leaf” plate given in memory of longtime Museum and decorative arts supporter Henry Fuldner, who sadly passed away in January 2009. The Museum made a number of important photography acquisitions, among them, mid-twentieth-century photographs by Rudy Burckhardt, Don Donaghy, Sid Grossman, and Leon Levinstein, which were acquired with funds the Richard and Ethel Herzfeld Foundation generously contributed. Significant gifts included three Shimon & Lindemann photographs, which the artists donated, and which joined four works the Museum additionally purchased by the artists. Several major gifts greatly enhanced the Museum’s collection of prints and drawings. The Sam Francis Foundation gave the Museum a major donation of more than five hundred prints by the Abstract Expressionist master (see special section devoted to this gift, pp. 31–45), and Sanford Towart gifted the Museum a body of work (primarily French and Dutch prints and drawings) in memory of Dr. David R. van Fossen. The Museum also acquired the artist’s book titled Departure of the Argonaut by Francesco Clemente, a leading figure in the Neo-Expressionist movement. Clemente’s surreal illustrations complement Alberto Savinio’s free-flowing prose, originally written in 1918, of his experiences fighting in the First World War. The work is hailed as one of the most important artists’ books of the twentieth century.

Exhibitions baker/rowland galleries The Museum started the 2008–2009 Baker/Rowland exhibition series with Act/React: Interactive Art, the first extensive exhibition in an art museum of intuitive, digitally developed interactive art. This Museumorganized exhibition presented a sampling of a growing body of artwork, where the interactivity involved is non-technical and performed with the entire body of the viewer. Visitors experienced immersive environments where they could affect the images, lights, or sounds around them. The exhibition Jan Lievens: A Dutch Master Rediscovered opened in February. The exhibition reconsidered the career of Dutch artist Jan Lievens, who surpassed Rembrandt in their day. Featuring fifty-five paintings and almost eighty works on paper, the exhibition resulted in new research that led to the reattribution of a number of paintings, including several works that were once believed to be by Rembrandt. The exhibition made the international press for uncovering the earliest known image of Rembrandt, painted by Lievens when Rembrandt was only sixteen. Jan Lievens was a collaborative effort between the National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC, the Milwaukee Art Museum, and the Rembrandt House Museum, Amsterdam, illustrating the Museum’s commitment to organizing major shows on an international scale. In the summer, the Museum paired two exhibitions that celebrated the American spirit of artistic originality. The Artistic Furniture of Charles Rohlfs was the first major museum exhibition to bring together the extraordinary body of work of Charles Rohlfs, an early-twentiethcentury designer whose furniture is marked by virtuosic carving and innovative construction unparalleled by his peers. The Eight and American Modernisms combined a selection of the Museum’s outstanding works by the early-twentieth-century American painters with equally remarkable works from the Terra Foundation for American Art and the New Britain Museum of American Art. The resulting exhibition elevated these artists to a new position in the history of early American modernism.

The 2008–2009 Koss Gallery season opened with Unmasked & Anonymous: Shimon & Lindemann Consider Portraiture. The exhibition was the result of a two-year collaboration between Curator of Photographs Lisa Hostetler and Wisconsin-based contemporary artists John Shimon and Julie Lindemann. Together they selected fifty-four photographic portraits from the Collection and forty photographs by Shimon & Lindemann; then they juxtaposed them in the gallery to illuminate the significance of portraiture over the past 170 years, since photography’s invention in 1839.

Three changing shows generated by our partners at Chipstone Foundation for the Decorative Arts Gallery complemented the recently reinstalled American Collections galleries. In fall/winter 2008, The Finest in the Western Country: Wisconsin Decorative Arts, 1820–1900 considered the great variety of objects produced in Wisconsin through its early history. In winter 2009, Remains: Contemporary Artists and the Material Past featured the work of three contemporary artists who draw inspiration from early decorative arts. The exciting summer installation American Furniture/ Googled sought to meaningfully investigate how museums deliver information in the Internet age: alongside nineteenth-century furniture, digital screens shared a selection of websites (auction houses, blogs, other museums, etc.), replacing omniscient curatorial labels with a variety of viewpoints and visual designs.

Associate Curator of Prints and Drawings Mary Weaver Chapin curated Catesby, Audubon, and the Discovery of a New World: Prints of the Flora and Fauna of America. The exhibition was drawn from the Museum’s extensive holdings, which had been greatly enriched by the gift of ornithological prints from Donald and Helen Polacheck in 2008. Rare hand-colored etchings, engravings, lithographs, maps, and bound books enlivened this show, which also featured a few select loans from private collectors and the rare book departments of the Milwaukee Public Library, the Newberry Library in Chicago, and the Memorial Library at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. Pulitzer-prize winning author Richard Rhodes delivered the keynote lecture about John James Audubon in January 2009. In the spring, Class Pictures: Photographs by Dawoud Bey, organized by Aperture, New York, presented forty large-scale photographic portraits alongside texts written by the subjects, who were high-school students from across the country. The show focused on the construction and perception of identity in adolescence, a crucial time in every individual’s life. Figurative Prints: 1980s Rewind, curated by Collections Manager of Works on Paper Brooke Mulvaney, ended the fiscal year. The show consisted of approximately thirty-four large-scale prints, portfolios, and artists’ books that were drawn almost entirely from the Collection. The exhibition gave an overview of the figurative renaissance and brought together a variety of artists who were working in the 1980s.

publications Act/React: Interactive Installation Art George Fifield and Judith Donath; introduction by Joseph D. Ketner II Edited by: Lucy Flint Designed by: Dan Saal with Brenda Neigbauer Published by: Milwaukee Art Museum and ASPECT Softcover; 84 pages; mostly color ill.; includes DVD; 2008 This DVD/catalogue documents the interactive installations that were in the exhibition Act/React: Installation Art and offers commentary by the artists. In the publication, George Fifield provides a concise history of interactive art and Harvard Berkman Center Fellow Judith Donath, a leading theoretician of new media, offers an analysis of the dramatic transformation that ensues when art becomes a vehicle for social interaction. The DVD/catalogue is ingeniously designed to parallel the interactivity of the exhibition, and contains biographies on all six artists.

Unmasked & Anonymous: Shimon & Lindemann Consider Portraiture Lisa Hostetler, John Shimon, and Julie Lindemann Edited by: Christina Dittrich Designed by: Dan Saal Published by: Milwaukee Art Museum Distributed by: The University of Wisconsin Press Softcover; 68 pages; over 60 color and black and white images; 2008 Wisconsin photographers John Shimon and Julie Lindemann have made a career of conflating the contemporary with the historical. In the portraits that form the bulk of their oeuvre, they make use of antique cameras, modern lens technology, artificial light, and contemporary pop culture. The catalogue juxtaposes the artists’ original photographs with portraits from the Milwaukee Art Museum’s Collection, including daguerreotypes, as well as photographs by Alfred Stieglitz, Diane Arbus, and Larry Clark, among others, to present new perspectives on one of the oldest artistic genres—portraiture.

Awards The above publications were both recognized in HOW Magazine’s In-HOWse Design Awards, a national design competition open to all in-house design departments. Both publications received merit awards in the nonprofit category and appeared in the February 2010 issue of HOW Magazine.

acquisitions—sam francis collection The Milwaukee Art Museum is proud to be the recipient of a major gift from the Sam Francis Foundation based in Los Angeles County, California. Consisting of 515 lithographs, etchings, and screenprints by Francis, the gift includes many unique cancellation proofs and trial proofs. This important donation makes the Milwaukee Art Museum the premier center in the world for the in-depth study of Francis’s graphic oeuvre. The foundation also donated twenty-four works by other artists (Anish Kapoor, Niki St. Phalle, and Christopher Wool, among others) that were published by Francis’s Lapis Press. Sam Francis (1923–1994) emerged in the 1950s as one of the most important members of the second generation of Abstract Expressionist artists. His talent was initially recognized in Europe: he was accorded his first solo show in Paris in 1952, and his work was included in a major museum group exhibition in 1955 at the Kunsthalle Bern, Switzerland. He began printmaking while living in Europe, publishing a series of lithographs in 1960. As critic and print expert Ruth Fine has noted: “This first large group, exhibited and sold throughout Europe as well as in America, both enhanced Francis’s own reputation and accelerated appreciation of the new American abstraction abroad.” After this auspicious start, Francis continued printmaking upon his return to the United States. Unlike many of his fellow Abstract Expressionists, who only occasionally dabbled in printmaking, Francis was a committed and innovative printmaker. He worked with several important studios including Universal Limited Art Editions in Bay Shore, New York, and Tamarind Lithography Workshop and Gemini G.E.L., both in Los Angeles, before founding his own press, The Litho Shop, in Santa Monica in 1970. In 1984, he founded Lapis Press to publish artists’ books.

Throughout his long career, Francis explored printmaking techniques in the same way he approached his canvases and works on paper, often using the same materials for all processes. His exploration and depiction of visual space was created through an intuitive process. He cited dreams and memories; Jungian archetypes; sensations of light, color, and sound; and Eastern religion, literature, and philosophy as his sources, which he explored in paintings, etching, lithographs, screenprints, monotypes, drawings, and illustrated books. The Milwaukee Art Museum is deeply grateful to the Sam Francis Foundation for this valuable gift, which is now housed in the Richard and Ethel Herzfeld Foundation Print, Drawing, and Photography Study Center. Research and cataloging of his immense collection is ongoing. Note that in the list published here, duplicate entries represent unique trial or color proofs of the image. The Contemporary Art Society of the Milwaukee Art Museum supported this gift with funds to cover the costs of packing, transportation, and new storage files at the Museum.

education + public programs Participation in family programs increased dramatically this year thanks to Kohl’s Department Stores. In 2008, Kohl’s Department Stores announced a $1 million gift over two years to the Museum to support Kohl’s Art Generation, a youth and family art initiative. The first year was a great success. The program, which launched in May 2009, increased both on- and off-site participation in family programs from 9,000 to over 46,000 in one year. In addition, nearly 2,000 families became new Members of the Museum. Children and their parents/guardians could now drop in to the Museum on the weekends—for a few minutes or all day—and find a variety of activities designed especially for them. Each month, Story Time in the Galleries, Sketching in the Galleries, and Kohl’s Art Generation Open Studio featured a different theme; each weekend, a new opportunity to explore that theme through art. Color Stories, a hands-on exhibition in the Kohl’s Art Generation Gallery, prompted children to discover how colors fool your eye, inspire stories, and mix with one another to create an entire rainbow. The exhibition entertained young and old alike. Kohl’s Color Wheels, the program’s offsite mobile creation station, had a fun-filled summer traveling to fourteen festivals throughout Milwaukee, bringing art-making activities that inspire creativity into the community. Lastly, through School Family Nights, twenty-five area schools hosted students and their parents for an evening of shared creative art experiences, with programming designed by the Museum. Families received complimentary visits to the Museum as a follow-up to this program. The ever-popular Target Family Sundays and the Museum’s self-guided ArtPacks continued to delight families as well. The Target Family Sundays Day of the Dead event, one of six themed events held throughout the year, is now the largest celebration of its kind in the city. ArtPacks, which are available on Thursday evenings and the weekends, provided creative and innovative ways for children to explore art with their families throughout the galleries. The Museum’s school program also remained strong: 56,791 students visited from 724 schools, and the number of Milwaukee Public Schools using the Museum continued to grow. In fiscal year 2009, 66 percent of Milwaukee Public Schools brought their students to the Museum, up from 34 percent in fiscal year 2003. All the students who came to the Museum

on a school tour received a complimentary pass to return to the Museum with their family, thanks to support from Assurant Health Foundation. Dedicated to improving writing and learning in the nation’s schools, the Museum started a new collaboration this year with the Milwaukee Writing Project. The Museum sponsored two teachers’ writing retreats and a four-week summer institute that used the Collection as inspiration for teaching writing in all grades and through all subjects. This project has increased the number of teachers who feel comfortable bringing their students to the Museum, and has advanced the inclusion of writing and art in all subject areas. In addition to youth and family initiatives, the Museum’s adult and public programs attracted visitors and enriched their Museum experience throughout the year with a range of events. Nine MAM After Dark events drew over 9,000 young professionals from the Milwaukee area to the Museum. Another 16,225 Museum visitors enjoyed live music events, book salons, art history classes in the galleries, and lectures and gallery talks by nationally recognized art historians and curators such as Arthur K. Wheelock, Jr. from the National Gallery of Art and artists such as Fred Wilson, iona rozeal brown, Dawoud Bey, and Martha Glowacki. There were countless opportunities for visitors to take a closer look at the works of art in the Collection. In its second year, Art in Bloom once again broke attendance records, attracting close to 11,000 visitors in just four days to see the exquisite floral displays by Milwaukee’s top designers throughout the Museum’s galleries. These are just a sampling of the Museum’s programs. All of these activities could not have happened without the generous support of donors, the dedication of the volunteer docents, and the hard work and commitment of the Museum’s excellent staff. These combined efforts provided educational opportunities for over 140,000 people, both at the Museum and in the community.

Gallery Talk: The Eight: Story of a Collection 2009 annual report |

| 53


development The significant achievements of the past year would not have been possible without the consistent and extremely generous support of the Museum’s donor family. The Development Committee, led by Trustees Ellen Glaisner and Frederic G. Friedman, together with a dedicated group of trustees and a community of volunteers, once again produced a successful Annual Campaign, which would be commended during good times, but is all the more remarkable given the year’s challenging economic climate. As the Museum’s principal source of support, this campaign is vital. The Museum continues to rely heavily on contributed revenue for its operations in all areas. As such, all gifts—both large and small—are critical to providing outstanding exhibitions (the lifeblood of the Museum), premier educational programs that are among the finest in the country, and a Collection of 20,000 works spanning antiquity to the present day.

2008–2009 Giving More than 17,500 Members, donors, and sponsors contributed a total of $7,533,000. This total includes $4,590,000 for the Museum’s membership and Annual Campaign and an additional $2,943,000 in grants and sponsorships for various education programs and exhibitions. These gifts were from individuals, corporations, foundations, and government agencies. The chart below shows the growing importance of

membership, the Annual Campaign, major gifts, grants, and sponsorship to the Museum operations. The Museum’s ability to raise and earn revenues sufficient to cover operating expenses will continue to be a challenge in the years ahead. Financially, the Museum concluded fiscal year 2009 with a balanced budget and a strong balance sheet, with no debt as of August 31, 2009. Although this was a tremendous accomplishment, the Museum did cut 15 percent, or $2 million, from its annual operating budget early in the year. The Museum reduced staff, top-level salaries, and matching dollars for the employee retirement fund. And as of this writing, for fiscal year 2010, the Museum has implemented a furlough/salary reduction program for all full-time employees and continues to closely monitor revenue and expenses to make certain it again concludes with a balanced budget.

development

Membership Members confirmed that membership in the Museum is still a great value—and an important part of their lives. Despite the uncertainty in the economy, the Museum’s membership base increased from 17,433 to 17,589. Families had even more reasons to join (and renew) this year. With the support of a grant from Kohl’s Department Stores, weekend programming for children was enhanced through the kid-friendly Kohl’s Art Generation Studio and Gallery. Families were also particularly drawn to the interactive exhibition Act/React, with works of art that responded to visitors’ movements. The “rediscovery” of a Dutch master sparked additional memberships—700 new Members joined through a direct mail offer associated with the Jan Lievens exhibition. The exhibition turned out to be a favorite for new and longtime Members alike. The Member Preview Celebration for the exhibition was extremely well attended, with more than 1,200 Members. The second year of Art in Bloom was also a tremendous success. Over 45 percent of the Museum’s visitors during the four-day event were Museum Members. More students became Members this year as well. While the Milwaukee Institute of Art & Design and Concordia University continued to supply memberships for their students, for the first time, the University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee Peck School of the Arts provided its over 800 visual arts majors with Museum memberships. Members receive many benefits, including free Museum admission and discounts in the Museum Store, on classes and special programs, and on parking passes. Members are also eligible to join one of the Museum’s eight support groups. In May, Members were again treated to Member Month, with deeper discounts and exclusive Curators’ Favorites Tours of the Collection. Members at the Art Advocate level and above were invited to a day trip in July to Crab Tree Farm, a private estate in Lake Bluff, IL, which showcases a remarkable collection of American and English Arts and Crafts decorative arts and furniture, including pieces by Gustav Stickley. We extend special thanks to Barbara Fuldner for making the trip to Crab Tree Farm possible. Barbara is the great-granddaughter of Gustav Stickley and longtime Member and supporter of the Museum.

With much appreciation and gratitude, the Milwaukee Art Museum thanks all its Members for their ongoing support, advocacy, and commitment to their Museum.

President’s Circle Every great institution has a core of great supporters— a circle of philanthropic leaders committed to its success. At the Museum, that group is the President’s Circle, which, once again, provided 65 percent of the funding resulting from the Annual Campaign. Trustees Ellen Glaisner and Frederic G. Friedman led the Development Committee along with thirty-nine solicitors who helped raise funds among President’s Circle Members. The entire community benefits from their outstanding generosity. President’s Circle membership starts at $2,500, and the 260 President’s Circle Members gave a total of $3,022,174 to the 2008–2009 campaign. The Museum could not provide the tremendous exhibitions and family and education programming without this group; it honors these Members with special recognition and exclusive privileges, from unique opportunities to meet with the curators to private President’s Circle Previews of the feature exhibitions.

Sponsorship Support The exhibitions and family and education programming the Museum presents are only possible because of the generous support and sponsorship of foundations, corporations, and individuals, all of whom give for a variety of reasons. Sponsorship can build visibility and awareness of a brand, offer business-building opportunities, demonstrate community responsibility and support of the arts, and offer memorable hospitality experiences for clients and employees. This year again, the Museum saw an increase in the sponsorship of exhibitions and education and public programs. Visitors had a year of dynamic and meaningful experiences, including popular events such as MAM after Dark, Family Sundays, Art in Bloom, and the Lakefront Festival of Arts, thanks to these ongoing and new sponsorships. Significantly, Kohl’s Department Stores awarded the Museum a $1 million grant toward the development of the Kohl’s Art Generation program, an initiative designed to help the Museum further engage area youth and families in looking at, appreciating, and creating art. During this first year of the program, the Museum saw a 60 percent increase in Family memberships. 2009 annual report |

Legacy Society

Recognizing Leadership

More than ninety Museum supporters have promised gifts through their estate plans. Using wills, trusts, insurance, retirement plans, or other assets, planned giving donors receive valuable tax advantages while providing support that makes it possible for generations to come to enjoy the rich experiences the Museum provides.

Outstanding supporters set powerful examples for others. This year, the Museum honored Frederic G. Friedman with the Jean Friedlander Award for Exceptional Service, created in 2007. Rick has been a strong supporter of the Museum for decades, though mostly behind the scenes. Since the 1970s, Rick has been a champion for the endowment campaign, and he was on the committee that oversaw the successful completion of the Calatrava-designed addition. He now serves on the board of trustees, as co-chair of the Development Committee and as legal counsel for the Museum. This award is presented periodically to those whose sustained efforts, like Jean’s, lift the Museum and the volunteers who advance it.

Most monies received from planned gifts will build the Museum’s endowment fund, which is critical to the very health of the institution. The Museum’s current endowment generated only 8 percent of the annual operating budget, which drastically trailed most comparable art museums across the nation. This amplified the strain placed on the Museum during one of the worst economic crises in recent history. For information on the Legacy Society, request the Museum’s Planned Giving Brochure from Senior Director of Development Mary Albrecht at 414-224-3245.

support groups African American Art Alliance

American Arts Society

The African American Art Alliance (AAAA), founded in 1990, supports educational programs centering on African American art and artists, promotes volunteer involvement in the Museum, and is dedicated to raising funds for purchasing African American art for the Museum’s Collection.

The American Arts Society (AAS) celebrates American art, antiques, and architecture from the colonial era into the twentieth century through educational programs, trips, exhibitions, and conservation efforts. AAS was proud to support the Museum’s 2009 summer exhibition The Artistic Furniture of Charles Rohlfs in tribute to AAS founding member Henry Fuldner. Through direct contributions from its members, an exhibition tour with curator Sarah Fayen, and a bus trip to the superb Crab Tree Farm collection, AAS raised almost $20,000 for this important Arts and Crafts exhibition. In March, AAS joined Museum docents on a trip to New York where they enjoyed special tours of Gustav Stickley’s Craftsman Farms (Morris Plains, NJ) and the ADA1900 Foundation collection at The Dakota (New York City). In April, AAS planned their third annual conservation seminar on the art of caring for textiles. Thirty attendees participated in a series of “hands-on” demonstrations and were provided with behind-thescenes access to the Museum’s Conservation Lab. AAS teamed with AAAA to host a dinner and performance by artist Theaster Gates, and with Print Forum and the Garden Club to support a lecture by Richard Rhodes on his book John James Audubon: The Making of an American. The lecture was held in conjunction with the Catesby, Audubon, and the Discovery of a New World print exhibition. To continue celebration of the recently opened American Collections galleries on the Lower Level, AAS sponsored a lecture with artist Martha Glowacki to highlight her intriguing installation work in the cabinets of curiosities section of the galleries.

In 2009, AAAA began its full slate of programs with a presentation on March 5 by contemporary painter iona rozeal brown, who spoke about her painting sacrifice in the Museum’s Collection, and her artistic influences. The artist discussed the combination of traditional Japanese imagery and an overtly hip-hop stylization in her work. On April 23, in conjunction with photographer Dawoud Bey’s exhibition Class Pictures, the alliance co-hosted a talk and book signing with the Chicagobased artist. Bey’s Class Pictures, a five-year project begun in 2002 on Chicago’s South Side, is a penetrating view into today’s American high schools. Alliance members had a second opportunity to hear Bey on May 28 at an informal gallery talk with Curator of Photographs Lisa Hostetler. Also from Chicago, artist and urban planner Theaster Gates Jr. discussed his latest work with AAAA and American Arts Society members on April 30, including the video piece installed in the Hidden Dimensions section of the American Collections on the Museum’s Lower Level. The alliance played an active role in the second annual Art in Bloom event in April, a popular four-day tribute to art and flowers. AAAA sponsored Art in the Yard, which featured regional artists selling outdoor garden sculpture in the event’s marketplace on April 4 and 5. On June 20, the alliance held its Annual Meeting/ Reception in the home of collectors Bruce and Virginia Thompson. On this occasion, members of AAAA were presented with an exclusive showing of works from the G. R. N’Namdi Gallery, the oldest and largest existing African American–owned gallery in the world. Later in the year, AAAA went to the John Michael Kohler Arts Center in Sheboygan for a private gallery talk and presentation by Xenobia Bailey, a Harlem-based artist originally from Seattle, Washington. Her vibrant room-sized installations of crocheted mandalas, tents, and costumes that bring African American roots music into visual terms was part of the Kohler’s fall exhibition American Story.

Collectors’ Corner The Collectors’ Corner began supporting the Museum in 1948, making 2008 the group’s 60th anniversary, a cause for great celebration. Sixty years ago, a group of Milwaukee women formed an organization devoted to the study of antiques, with members conducting research and giving talks. Today, Collectors’ Corner develops educational programs and supports the Museum’s American decorative arts program. In keeping with their commitment to support important decorative arts scholarship, the group contributed to the sponsorship of the summer feature exhibition, The Artistic Furniture of Charles Rohlfs. Curator Sarah Fayen described Rohlfs as one of the most profoundly inventive furniture designers at the turn of the twentieth century (pointing out his virtuosic carving

and imaginative silhouettes) at the Collectors’ Corner Annual Meeting at the Milwaukee Country Club. Collectors’ Corner enjoyed a variety of programs at their meetings this year. They traveled to the Cuneo Museum and Chicago Botanic Garden in September, and viewed art dedicated to the evolution of human work at the Grohmann Museum at the Milwaukee School of Engineering in January. Perennial favorite Barbara Brown Lee discussed the Museum’s newly installed American paintings, Laurie Winters presented the exhibition Jan Lievens: A Dutch Master Rediscovered, and Director Dan Keegan provided insight into the Museum’s future. Collectors’ Corner member Catharine Malloy shared her passion for Irish art in a special lecture, continuing the tradition of sharing research and knowledge with other members.

Contemporary Art Society The Contemporary Art Society (CAS) promotes the appreciation of contemporary art through the sponsorship of programs, and by supporting the Museum’s acquisitions of important contemporary art. In fiscal year 2009, CAS sponsored numerous popular programs and the exhibition Class Pictures: Photographs by Dawoud Bey. The season began in November with rising young artist Amy Granat in conversation with Assistant Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art John McKinnon. The program touched on Granat’s installation, current media tendencies, and the concurrent kinetic art exhibitions at the Museum, Sensory Overload and Act/ React. A lecture by iona rozeal brown in March, co-sponsored by CAS and AAAA, gave audiences a look into her artistic background and the inspiration for her painting sacrifice in the Museum’s Collection. CAS then advanced a funding challenge to bring the Class Pictures exhibition to the Museum; additional funds were successfully raised and the sponsorship goal for this memorable show was met. In May, CAS members took a bus tour in Milwaukee to visit local artists Reginald Baylor, Mark Mulhern, and Richard Taylor in their studios. Later that same month, a group of CAS members took a guided tour of San Francisco museums, galleries, artist studios, private collections, and vineyards. The year ended with the Annual Meeting, at which members enjoyed a sneak peek at the upcoming 2010 schedule.

Fine Arts Society Founded in 1987, the Fine Arts Society (FAS) is a group of European-art enthusiasts that sponsors and supports related programs and exhibitions, and acquisitions by the Museum. FAS began the fiscal year with a lecture by Jed Perl, art critic for The New Republic, who discussed his new book, Watteau and His World. In October, Harry Ettlinger, one of the last surviving World War II Monument Men, provided a personal, behind-the-scenes look at the recovery of Nazi-looted artworks. FAS kicked off programming for the exhibition Jan Lievens: A Dutch Master Rediscovered with an advance lecture by Arthur Wheelock, curator of Baroque painting at the National Gallery, Washington, DC. In December, FAS members enjoyed two spirited holiday programs: a luncheon featuring a Collection highlights tour with Director of Exhibitions Laurie Winters, and a private holiday party at the home of Joana and Christopher Smocke. Throughout the Jan Lievens exhibition, FAS sponsored a variety of lectures that greatly enhanced the exhibition experience. First, Timothy Brook, principal at St. John’s College and professor of Chinese history at the University of British Columbia, spoke on his bestselling book, Vermeer’s Hat: The Global Context of Dutch Art. In March, Melanie Gifford, conservation scientist at the National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC, gave a fascinating gallery talk on the technical aspects of Lievens’ work. Later in the month, Walter Liedtke, curator of European paintings at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, addressed the rivalry between Rembrandt and Lievens. During the Museum’s Art in Bloom weekend, Mike Dash, author of Tulipomania, explained the cultural significance of tulips in the Netherlands. On the closing day of the exhibition, Alfred Bader, Milwaukee art collector, gave a lecture on The Joys of Collecting. The year ended with the group’s annual summer party at the lakefront home of Mary Terese Duffy.

Friends of Art As the Museum’s largest volunteer support group, Friends of Art (FOA) continued its long-standing tradition of special events fundraising during the 2009 fiscal year. Hundreds of volunteers work to present FOA events that engage the community, expand the Museum’s audience, and generate funds to support exhibitions at the Museum and the acquisition of artworks for its Collection. Friends of Art raised over $380,000 this year alone through its two signature events: Bal du Lac and the Lakefront Festival of Arts. 2009 marked the 50th anniversary of the Bal du Lac gala event, which FOA celebrated in April with unprecedented success. Led by an all-star team of co-chairs including Sarah and Jeff Joerres, Elizabeth and Tom Long, Caran and Joel Quadracci, and Jami and Bruce Ross, the event was literally reinvented for this milestone year. Their unique and creative approach delivered unexpected surprises and a truly fabulous evening for the sold-out crowd of four hundred, which included prominent community and business leaders. The evening also achieved record fundraising results for FOA, generating net proceeds of over $225,000 to support the Museum. Donna and Donald Baumgartner, Marianne and Sheldon Lubar, Betty Quadracci, and Sue and Bud Selig were also named Honorary Co-Chairs of the Bal du Lac with respect to their support of the event’s rich history and FOA’s fundraising accomplishments. In June, the 47th annual Lakefront Festival of Arts (LFOA) highlighted the talents of an exclusive group of 172 artists from across the country, selected from over 1,100 submissions. The efforts of co-chairs Ryan Gray and Laura Lukas and their dedicated team of volunteers drew over 20,000 attendees to this nationally recognized event. This incredible response was also largely due to the continuing and unprecedented support of LFOA’s generous sponsors, including returning presenting sponsors, Quad Graphics and Milwaukee Magazine.

Finally, Friends of Art recognized a few dedicated individuals and corporate partners during its Annual Meeting for their ongoing commitment to FOA’s fundraising initiatives in support of the Museum. A Volunteer Service Award was presented to David Bauer for the consistent leadership he demonstrated in his long-term role as treasurer for the FOA Board of Directors. Michelle Dwyer and Linda Koenig were acknowledged for their outstanding service on numerous FOA events. State Farm Insurance was awarded Partner in Art for its exceptional support and service associated with the Lakefront Festival of Arts. Finally, Stacy Terris was honored with the 2009 Friend of the Year Award, FOA’s highest form of recognition, for the years of exemplary service he provided to the Museum in terms of time, skills, and expertise on behalf of Friends of Art.

Garden Club Currently in its eighty-ninth year, the Museum’s Garden Club is the largest member club of the Wisconsin Garden Club Federation. As part of its mission, the club supports the Milwaukee Art Museum by providing flowering plants and arrangements for the Museum’s entrances and information desks. Members of the Museum are welcome and encouraged to join the Garden Club, whether as a novice or master gardener. The Garden Club’s primary focus this year was its second annual Art in Bloom: A Tribute to Art and Flowers. Featuring art-inspired floral designs and a variety of floral and garden-related programming over four days, the event exceeded expectations by drawing an impressive 11,500 visitors into the Museum’s galleries in April. Led by event co-chairs Margarete Harvey, Marcia Velde, and Nancy Hayer, the club played a crucial role in the event’s success through the tireless efforts of numerous dedicated volunteers. With tours, trips, demonstrations, and workshops, the Museum’s Garden Club maintained an active program schedule for its members. Programming this season featured talks on bulbs, flower arranging, growing and the use of herbs, and garden photography, as well as various other educational and social gatherings. Club members also enjoyed a spring trip to gardens and museums throughout historic Boston and Newport.

Photography Council

Print Forum

The Photography Council is devoted to the Museum’s photography collection and exhibition program. Membership allows Museum Members with an interest in the art and history of photography (whether a collector, artist, student, or enthusiast) to enrich their knowledge of the medium through an annual program of special events.

Print Forum unites Museum Members with an interest in prints and drawings from the Renaissance to today. Founded in 1980, Print Forum has sponsored exhibitions, lectures, seminars, and acquisitions to support the Museum throughout its history.

Fiscal year 2009 was an excellent year to be a member of the Photography Council. The group began the season by sponsoring an opening reception and gallery walk-through for Unmasked & Anonymous: Shimon & Lindemann Consider Portraiture, which proved to be a very popular event; a sea of visitors completely filled Baumgartner Galleria as they lined up to have their exhibition catalogues signed by the artists. In October, the group joined forces with the Milwaukee-based Coalition of Photographic Artists to host a lecture by contemporary artist Jen Davis, whose work had been selected for acquisition at the Photography Council’s 2nd Annual Event in 2007. The fourth installment of this event was held in February 2009. The work selected was a striking photograph by Minneapolis-based Evan Baden. The image of a young girl bathed in the glowing light of a Nintendo DS speaks volumes about the isolation technological devices can engender. April brought the opening of Class Pictures: Photographs by Dawoud Bey, for which the group, together with the Contemporary Art Society, sponsored a reception and talk by the artist. Lastly, in June, Photography Council members gathered for a show-and-tell, at which participants presented a photograph they had collected, been inspired by, or made in the previous year.

Print Forum enjoyed a varied program of events during the 2008–2009 season. In October 2008, Print Forum and the African American Art Alliance gathered to thank former director David Gordon for his service to the Museum, and to unveil acquisitions made in Gordon’s honor. In winter, much of the focus of Print Forum revolved around the opening of the exhibition Catesby, Audubon, and the Discovery of a New World: Prints of the Flora and Fauna of America. Members were fêted at the opening on December 18, and then gathered again on January 22, 2009, for a lecture by Pulitzer Prize–winning author Richard Rhodes, who spoke at length about Audubon’s remarkable biography. This event was co-sponsored with the Garden Club and the American Arts Society, a successful partnership that delivered a first-class evening. The next month, the group celebrated the work of local artist JoAnna Poehlmann, whose prints, drawings, and artist’s books were installed on the Mezzanine Level as a complement to the Catesby, Audubon exhibition. Chief Educator Barbara Brown Lee and Associate Curator of Prints and Drawings Mary Weaver Chapin led a gallery tour followed by a reception. Spring saw the return of a Print Forum tradition—show-and-tell—during which members shared prints and drawings from their own collections, as well as the Annual Dinner in June and a trip to see the studio of printmaker and pulp artist Roland Poska. Throughout the year, Print Forum members gathered informally for “Print Night Out”— a chance to try new restaurants and enjoy the company of fellow print and drawing enthusiasts.

financial report

Highlights of the 2009 operating year include:

• Increasing admission, tour fees, and parking, over 4% from prior year • Continued success of the store, café, and facility rentals, which contributed a gross profit in excess of $1.6 million, down slightly from prior year • Sponsorship revenue was up slightly from prior year ($2.9 million) for both curatorial and education programs The investment portfolio experienced weakened performance in 2009, losing approximately $1.4 million in market value from the prior year. Total market value

of investments increased from $32.9 million to $35.2 million (7.0%) from 2008 to 2009. The increase in the market value of the funds was due to a large gift from a donor of approximately $7 million. The Museum’s ability to raise and earn revenues sufficient to cover operating expenses will continue to be a challenge in the years ahead. As the Museum plans for its future, successfully accomplishing its goals will depend on continuing to expand the visitor experience, grow its Member and donor base, and build a larger endowment.
