Since arriving in Santa Fe this fall with my wife, Mary, I have been grateful for the warmth and openness of the community leaders and residents who have welcomed us. Among these are the staff and friends of the Foundation and the Museum of New Mexico, who have patiently assisted me in the transition and encouraged me in the work ahead. As I learn more about the important work of the Foundation, I am inspired by the accomplishments of the past and the promise of the future. I salute former director Tom Aageson and all of the leaders in the Foundation’s 48-year history. During this time, their efforts to advance, preserve, and protect the state museums, monuments, and Office of Archaeological Studies have created a healthy and vital Foundation that benefits all New Mexicans. Their collective knowledge and experience provides me with a solid footing for tomorrow. Speaking of contributions, the cover story in this issue of Member News is a testament to the creative ways that Foundation members and donors are supporting the Museum of New Mexico. From purchasing objects to donating works of art to hosting private fund raising events, members are providing meaningful gifts to help museum curators in their important work. As Foundation stewards today, we stand on the shoulders of those who have come before us. So I thank the many members and friends whose years of dedicated support have kept the Foundation strong. As we celebrate the holiday season and a new year, I invite you to consider a gift to the Foundation’s Annual Fund for Museum Excellence. I also look forward to the opportunity to meet each of you during holiday events and in 2011. Sincerely, 2 4 11 Our Mission The mission of the Museum of New Mexico Foundation is to support the Museum of New Mexico’s efforts to preserve and enhance New Mexico’s unique cultural resources through fundraising, collaboration, advocacy, and other essential support services. OUR VISION We envision a Museum of New Mexico that will have ever-increasing resources to pursue its mission and create engaging cultural experiences for all New Mexico residents and visitors. member news staff Mariann Minana-Lovato Senior Membership Officer, Editor/Writer Carmella Padilla, Copy Editor Autumn DeHosse, Designer John P.

Exhibition Puzzle The Private Donors Help Put the Pieces Together Photo: Dana Waldon Exhibition designer Caroline Lajoie and graphic designer Natalie Baca designed El Hilo de la Memoria at the New Mexico History Museum (above) for efficient travel and installation at the show's three museum venues. E very day, a small museum army— curators, registrars, designers, fabricators, marketing staff, educators, docents, guards, event planners, and others—tends to exhibition details. In 2010 alone, our museums, monuments, and Office of Archaeological Studies presented nearly two dozen unique shows. Often conceived three to five years in advance, exhibitions are rarely inexpensive, and state budgets do not provide exhibition funding. That’s where Museum of New Mexico Foundation members and other supporters come in. While museum staff achieve amazing things with limited resources, they rely on private donors to support in-house exhibitions and important traveling shows. From shipping fees for loan items, research travel for curators, and object conservation, to gallery preparation, advertising, publications, and education programs, private funding is a pivotal piece of the exhibition puzzle. Here are some creative ways that members and other private partners are helping museum staff create meaningful, memorable exhibition experiences. El Hilo de la Memoria: España y los Estados Unidos Recently making its American debut at the New Mexico History Museum (on view until January 9, 2011), this traveling exhibit of 138 rare documents, illustrations, and maps from Spain’s General Archive of the Indies details the country’s early presence in North America. Appearing on the heels of Santa Fe’s 400th anniversary, the exhibition is a timely opportunity for museum-goers to learn about New Mexico’s significant place in Spanish history. But it wouldn’t have happened without an international team of visionary supporters who secured its visit to the museum. The process began more than two years ago when former Foundation executive director Tom Aageson saw the show in Seville. Soon, History Museum director Frances Levine and Department of continued next page Member News 1 Photo: Dana Waldon Folk Art of the Andes Assistant Curator Ruth Lanore provides a sneak peek at some of the items to be shown in Folk Art of the Andes at the Museum of International Folk Art. 2 Member News Photo: Museum of International Folk Art Cultural Affairs Secretary Stuart Ashman were talking to Spanish officials about bringing the exhibit to New Mexico. With support from SEACEX, a Spanish cultural organization, and with Spain’s Ministries of Foreign Affairs and Cooperation and Culture, they arranged to transport the priceless documents from Spain to Santa Fe. Other exhibition costs and logistics, including translating the catalog from Spanish to English and purchasing equipment to regulate gallery humidity and temperature levels, were left to the museum. Staff arranged to share costs and some of the workload with colleagues at the other exhibit venues, the New Orleans Historical Collection and El Paso Museum of History. Meanwhile, Foundation and museum staff convened a volunteer fund raising committee with trustee and History Museum Development Team chair Sherry Davis. Santa Fe Hispanic Chamber of Commerce founder Leveo Sánchez invited friends to join him as exhibit sponsors, while BBVA/Compass and Wells Fargo provided grants for a website, lectures, demonstrations, performances, and school tours. The City of Santa Fe contributed financial support, and in Albuquerque, Dr. Miguel and Maria Estela de Ríos and Maggie and Norman McDonald hosted fund raising receptions. “This was a terrific model for teamwork,” Levine says. “We surpassed our $200,000 funding goal and allowed the museum to host an exhibit so important to New Mexico that also highlights the importance of Spanish origins in 17 states in the US.” Opening in April 2011 at the Museum of International Folk Art, this exhibit showcases more than 850 works illustrating religious, textile, costume, utilitarian, and festival folk art traditions from the Andean region of South America during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Barbara Mauldin, museum curator of Latin American folk art, drew on five years of research and fieldwork to create the show. While the museum’s collections provided valuable items for display, Mauldin says borrowing pieces from private collections was essential. “Lenders are so important to my project,” she says. “To be able to select and include things that other people have acquired helps to complement our collection. It allowed me to show the best examples of folk art produced by the Andean people.” In some cases, donors helped Mauldin fill in gaps in the permanent collection. Connie Jaquith, Foundation trustee and cochair of the museum’s development team, purchased objects that Mauldin wanted for the project. "I enjoy supporting the exhibit in this way because I know the pieces fulfill Barbara's vision for the museum collections,” Jaquith says. “Acquisitions not only enhance this exhibit but enhance the strength of the museum for the future." Folk Art of the Andes is also the title of the 300-page book that documents the pieces featured in the exhibition and highlights Mauldin’s research. Exhibition books provide another funding opportunity, and the International Folk Art Foundation made a significant contribution to the book’s publication. The museum seeks to raise another $30,000 to support the show’s installation costs. Portable Altar with Santiago and Virgin Mary. La Paz, Bolivia, late 19th–early 20th century.

From Function to Fine Art To support a specific exhibit, or contribute to a museum exhibition fund, contact Director of Development Kathryn Wroth at 505-982-6366 ext. 102, or email [email protected]. Photo: Dana Waldon At times, museums invite guest curators to prepare an exhibition. Such is the case for this Museum of Indian Arts & Culture exhibit that examines Native American basketry from 1880 to 1930. The show is scheduled to open in November 2011. For the past two years, guest curator and basketry scholar Larry Dalrymple has been working with Valerie Verzuh, museum curator of individually catalogued collections, to choose 250 examples from the museum’s vast basket collection. The collection covers a wide range of materials, techniques, forms, designs, and functions, but it doesn’t go beyond the 1930s. Dalrymple and Verzuh are thus relying on loans from private collectors to connect the museum collection to contemporary Native American basketry. Collectors are being invited to loan baskets that complement the collection and extend the basketry story to today. Other basket enthusiasts are providing funds ranging from $100 to $5,000 to “sponsor” groups of baskets in the show. “It’s so wonderful to draw people together around an extraordinary exhibit like this one,” says museum director Shelby Tisdale. “Scholars, collectors, art dealers, artists, donors, and members help build excitement for an exhibition and make our work so interesting and rewarding.” Though expenses for presenting an exhibit from a museum's own collection are often less than those associated with traveling exhibits or works on loan, the cost of mounting a show can be substantial. Significant financial support for Case Studies came from Friends of Contemporary Art, or FOCA. The group’s 250 members pay annual dues and organize contemporary art events to build awareness for contemporary art and local artists and to boost the museum’s contemporary art programs. The group committed $15,000 to the show. “FOCA’s support aligned perfectly with this opportunity to show the public how strong our contemporary art collection is,” says Laura Addison, museum curator of contemporary art. Among the most critical costs for any Museum of Art exhibit is conservation. Fortunately, longtime museum supporters Barbara and Bud Hoover consider conservation an essential and ongoing museum need, directing a portion of their annual museum gift to provide for the work. ”In order for valuable pieces in the collection to stay protected and preserved for the future, conservation is important,” Foundation trustee Barbara Hoover explains. “Especially if it means that an amazing artwork will safely be on exhibit so it can be shared with us.” The range of exhibition costs makes a strong case for creating permanent exhibition endowment funds to provide our institutions with a steady, long-term source of support. But until then, it will take more than museum staff to make interesting and inspiring exhibitions happen. Foundation members, donors, and collectors will all continue to play a vital role. Case Studies from the Bureau of Contemporary Art At the New Mexico Museum of Art, rarely seen gems from the museum's contemporary art holdings are highlighted in this whimsically titled exhibition (on view through March 20, 2011). The idea for the show came from conversations with museum visitors who asked to see contemporary works from the permanent collection. Laura Addison, curator of contemporary art at the New Mexico Museum of Art, studies John Garrett’s Midway/Wheel of Fortune, a piece that will be featured in Case Studies From the Bureau of Contemporary Art. Member News 3 in our shops L ife , L andscape , L egend New Mexico Creates, a program of the Museum of New Mexico Foundation Shops, offers some of the state’s finest works of art. More than 3,500 pieces of original art by over 1,200 New Mexico artists —including handmade jewelry, Native American and Hispanic art, art glass, textiles, and more—can be found at the Museum of New Mexico Foundation Shops or online at newmexicocreates.org. Proceeds from New Mexico Creates benefit the Museum of New Mexico and the participating artists. Meet six artists who draw inspiration from nature, dreams, culture, and life in New Mexico. Members receive a 10% discount on any of the items featured below. George Zarolinski, Chimayo George Zarolinski’s studio lies in a lush river valley tucked between the northern New Mexico badlands and the Sangre de Cristo mountains. The area’s scenic beauty inspires many of her colorful creations. Zarolinski’s jewelry is made by fusing layers of dichroic glass in a kiln. The glass appears one color from the front, but as the piece is rotated, the color changes. The senDichoric glass pendant suous show of light and color in each piece necklace by George is similar to the natural beauty of dragonf ly Zarolinski wings or fire opals. Laura Bruzzese, Albuquerque Laura Bruzzese creates handpainted raku and wood-fired vases, pendants, cups, bowls, sculpture, and other ceramic home décor, personal adornment, or gift-giving items. Especially unique is her collection of raku vases inspired by New Mexico skies, colors, and plant life. Raku pottery was developed in Japan more than 400 years ago as the ceremonial tea ware of the Zen Buddhist masters. Bruzzese allows you to bring this tradition—and a piece of the New Mexico outdoors—into your home. Touch the sky. Watch a sunset. Discover a f lower. Experience the power of clay as transformed in Bruzzese’s hands. Jacqueline Gala, Taos Pueblo Jacqueline Gala’s contemporar y j e w e l r y originates in her dreams. She keeps a s k e t c h b o ok by her bed to capture her dream designs, then follows the shape of semiprecious stones to flesh out the work. Her innovative use of silver patterns, plates, bars, and wires showcases each stone’s special qualities. Describing her jewelry as “wearable art,” Gala’s designs reflect classical American, European, and Asian art as well as her traditional Native American heritage. The self-taught silversmith also studied art and photography at the Institute of American Indian Arts.

Born on the Choctaw Reservation in Philadelphia, Mississippi, he spent most of his childhood in Chicago, where he became interested in graphic arts. He later came to Santa Fe to study at the Institute of American Indian Arts, where his art took a new direction as a “storyteller” ceramist. A member of his tribe’s Turtle Clan, Chitto’s trademark is the turtle, who is revered as the keeper of Choctaw histor y and lore. Chitto narrates his people’s unique beliefs and traditions through turtle storytellers, Koshare clowns, and other ceremonial figures. Turtle Koshare Eating Watermelon by Randall Chitto Barbara Harnack and Michael Lancaster, Cerrillos In their charming studio high above the Turquoise Trail, Barbara Harnack and Michael Lancaster collaborate in bringing characters to life as one-of-akind vessels fired in the style of American Raku sculpture. Michael cuts and throws the pieces, then passes them to Barbara, who draws and paints people and other fanciful characters with underglazes. The sculptures are pulled from the outdoor kiln when red hot and placed in a barrel of straw. “When I was a girl, I studied with a wonderful puppet maker from Paris named Madame Sorrell,” Barbara says. “I never got over the experience of creating ‘living beings’ from nothing.” Raku face sculpture by Barbara Harnack Christopher Pruitt, Laguna Pueblo Christopher Pruitt only began making jewelry in 2006. He learned the basics of polishing, brazing, and sawing from his brother, award-winning jeweler Pat Pruitt. He also studied stone inlay with his long time friend and renowned jeweler Charlie Bird. Today, Pruitt expresses his love for stones, rocks, and various metals in extraordinary pieces of contemporary jewelry, including kinetic pieces that move when worn. He often inlays turquoise, coral, black jade, and fossilized ivory into hammered and textured silver, and recently began to set diamonds into his work. In addition to his cultural heritage and jewelry mentors, Pruitt says his work is inspired by his background as a culinary chef.

Shoppers can now browse more than 5,000 items from over 5,000 artists while seamlessly shopping between the two sites using a single shopping cart. They also can easily access the Foundation's website from a tab at the top of the page. The sites also focus on the mission of the Museum Shops. Compelling images and messages remind shoppers that every online or in-store purchase supports the Museum of New Mexico as well as artists from New Mexico and around the world. In the last decade, the Foundation Shops have provided more than $1 million in support for the Museum of New Mexico and $6 million for New Mexican artists and their families. Members of the Museum of New Mexico Foundation and Museum of Spanish Colonial Art will no longer receive reciprocal membership privileges, including free admission, beginning in January 2011. The agreement was created in 2002 to help the new Museum Hill institution get off the ground by drawing upon Foundation membership to attract audiences, and vice versa. The Museum of Spanish Colonial Art now has its own membership program, with more than 800 members who support its collection of more than 3,000 objects and museum education programs. Foundation members will continue to receive free admission to the New Mexico History Museum/Palace of the Governors, New Mexico Museum of Art, Museum of International Folk Art, Museum of Indian Arts & Culture, all state monuments, and the Harwood Museum of Art in Taos. The Circles Celebrate 25 Years of Membership Support More than 160 members of The Circles gathered at the home of Sydney and Andrew Davis to commemorate The Circle’s twenty-five-year anniversary.

Starbuck Virginia E. and Douglas Starkweather ■ M Me me mb eb re r N eN we ws s 7 7 maggy ryan legacy society hilanthropy is inspirational. Even more so are the philanthropists who undertake selfless acts of kindness and generosity for the well-being of others. Jerry Richardson, the 2010 recipient of the Museum of New Mexico Foundation Award for Outstanding Philanthropy, has done this—and more—to benefit the Museum of New Mexico. As a longtime Foundation trustee and Palace of the Governors/New Mexico History Museum supporter, Richardson's tireless dedication made him an obvious choice for the award, which is given to philanthropic leaders who have significantly impacted the Museum of New Mexico Foundation. “Awards like this are usually given to the people who are able to write big checks to help make important things happen. I am not one of those people,” Richardson says. “I was recognized for my contribution of time and commitment over many years to the Foundation and to the museums and monuments that we support.” Richardson’s involvement dates to 1986, when he became a founding member of the Palace Guard, the support group for the Palace of the Governors that he has since served in many capacities. He has served as board chair, vice chair, and secretary, as well as chair of the Long Range Planning Committee. He currently is chair of the Audit Committee and a member of the Governance Committee. A retired attorney, Richardson’s professional pro-bono contributions to the Foundation are valued for their thoughtfulness and clarity. He also has made a generous bequest to the Foundation’s endowment fund and the Palace of the Governors endowment through the Maggy Ryan Legacy Society. In receiving the award, Richardson joined a roster of distinguished past honorees, including John and Anne Marion, Lloyd Cotsen, and Eileen Wells. “I feel very honored and valued. It affirms so strongly the values at the Foundation, where every contribution, whether it be of time, energy, money, critical thinking, or a combination of these things, is valued," he said. "It makes me feel proud to be a part of the Foundation.” Maggy Ryan Legacy Society TRUSTEES Museum of New Mexico Foundation Board of Trustees 2010-2011 As of OCTOBER 1, 2010 Trustees Bud Hamilton, Chairman Sherry Davis, Vice Chair Roy Bidwell, Vice Chair Jim Goodwin, Treasurer Lynn Brown, Secretary Catherine A.
