from the DIRECTOR
Dear Members,
I am so excited that we have begun our Silver Anniversary year-long celebration!
A few nights ago we hosted the kick-off event Celestial Fireworks, an evening
of dinner and dancing under the iconic Cappy Thompson window. The night
was lovely, perfectly planned by chair Winston Wilson Reese and her committee
of: Laura Harmon, Camille Elebash-Hill, Elizabeth Hunter, Laura Luckett, Peggy
Mussafer, Adam Schloss, Laurie Weil, Kelly Wilson, and Susie Wilson. We were
in the Lowder Gallery, but we also spilled out into the “back yard,” a site we
are eagerly working to transform into a new Sculpture Garden. It is fitting that
proceeds from the event will help fund the project.
Our 25th year in the park feels like a perfect moment to launch the Sculpture
Garden project and everyone I’ve spoken to about it is excited about the
countless possibilities it brings. In our newest gallery, we will be able to marry
sculpture, both large scale and intimate, into a unique setting that will delight
guests and encourage repeat visits, as the days, seasons, and weather all
change how you experience the art. We hope to break ground on the project
by the end of our 25th anniversary, or about a year from now.
We have celebrations large and small planned throughout the year. I hope you
keep an eye out for us, check out our website, like us on Facebook, follow us on
Twitter, and most of all, visit us often! It wouldn’t be a celebration without YOU!
I look forward to seeing you in the galleries soon.

Material Transformations
Through January 5, 2014
The artists of Material Transformations, Angela Ellsworth, Alison Foshee,
Johnston Foster, Kirsten Hassenfeld, Rune Olsen, Lucrecia Troncoso, and
Paul Villinski all find symbolism in the unconventional substances they use to
construct their works of art. They find inspiration in the stuff of life, items that
we frequently encounter, use, and discard with rarely a second thought such as
aluminum cans, cleaning sponges, construction debris, corsage pins, masking
tape, office supplies, and wrapping paper.
Manipulating and transforming these humble and common objects, the artists
address a multitude of ideas including our culture’s preoccupation with goods,
along with other cultural and social issues of the 21st century. Removed from
their normal use and modified into inventive works of art, the artists give these
ordinary products an extraordinary second life. In their altered form, these new
objects are intriguing works of art that challenge us to question our relationship
to the consumer-based foundations of our modern lives, while leaving behind
the established hierarchies of art, craft, and design.

Winfred Rembert (American, born 1945), Homer Clyde’s Cafe, 2008, dye on carved
and tooled leather, Collection of the artist
Winfred Rembert: Amazing Grace
Through January 19, 2014
Winfred Rembert (American, born 1945) is a remarkable self-taught artist originally
from Georgia who has lived in New Haven, Connecticut for the past thirty years. This traveling exhibition – his first museum show – features dramatic and overtly
biographical leather panels that Rembert has tooled and stained using techniques
he learned while unjustly incarcerated during the Civil Rights era. Rembert’s work
is intensely personal. It examines his experiences, and his response to the facts
of a life lived in the rural South in the 1960s. He documents a combination of
community love and support, contrasted against a backdrop of societal upheaval
and bitter violence.
Organized and circulated by the Hudson River Museum.

Optical Pulse: Modern Works on Paper
from the Permanent Collection
Through November 24, 2013
In the 1960s a group of abstract artists led by Richard Anuszkiewicz (American,
born 1930) and Victor Vasarely (Hungarian, 1906–1997) began controlling the
relationships between colors and shapes in their works to produce particular
optical effects. A visual feast, their works engage both the eye and the mind with
the illusion of movement. Known as Op Art, Optical Art, or Perceptual Abstraction,
these works play with our senses. Our mind recognizes that they are flat and twodimensional, but the artistic distortions cause us to “see” vibrating form and color
in three dimensions.
The Op Art movement grew from the explorations of artist and mathe­matician
Josef Albers (American, born Germany, 1888–1976) who began investigating
the psychological effects of how the eye processes the relationship of color and
space. Using abstract visual cues, Albers, the Op Artists, and the successive
abstract artists featured in the exhibition all utilize simple lines, shapes, and bands
or blocks of color to play with our perceptions through works of art that seem to
pulse and shift with movement.

Gogo: Nature Transformed
October 5 through December 29, 2013
Inspired by nature, Georgia designer­Janet “Gogo” Ferguson creates sophisticated
and intriguing jewelry and home wares. Based on Cumberland Island, the
southern-most barrier island on the Georgia coast, Gogo spends much of her
time in this beloved environment finding animal bones along with shells and
seaweed washed ashore – objects that are the creative force behind her dazzling
wearable art.
Over the last 25 years, Gogo’s nature-derived designs have evolved as she began
incorporating different techniques and materials. First working directly with the
fragile bones and shells, Gogo created cast versions in gold and silver made with
the lost-wax process to capture minute detail. Now, in addition to casting, she
also employs 3-D scanning technology. Playing with scale, Gogo creates large
works that echo her wearable pieces, including a mobile of whalebone, a sea
urchin pouf, and a seaweed sculpture. Through her vision, these large pieces,
together with her elegant jewelry, offer a transformed experience of nature.

Paul R. Jones Collection of American Art Exhibition Series
Through June 15, 2014
This series of exhibitions was selected from the Paul R. Jones Collection of
American Art in the College of Arts and Sciences at The University of Alabama.
Jones (1928–2010), described by Art & Antiques magazine as “one of the top
collectors in the country,” amassed one of the largest and most comprehensive
collections of 20th-century African-American art and donated much of it to The
University of Alabama.

Amos “Ashanti” Johnson (American, born
1950) is a South Carolina graphic artist,
painter, and printmaker. He studied at
Syracuse University and modeled his art
after that of Charles White (American,
1918–1979), a noted African-American
artist and educator. Johnson assumed
the “Ashanti” moniker to acknowledge
his strong personal association with the
Ashanti (or Asante) people of Ghana. His
art celebrates his African and AfricanAmerican cultural heritage.

Fine Arts, Montgomery, Alabama
David Allison Ogburn: Oggi’s “Photomart” of Great African
Americans from the Paul R. Jones Collection of American

David Allison Ogburn (American, born 1942) and
his cameras have been on the scene and behind
the scenes of the rhythm-and-blues world since
the early 1970s, capturing the ups and downs
of performers’ lives on the road. He has also
photographed many other prominent AfricanAmerican musicians, authors, and celebrities.
This exhibition includes portraits of Muhammad
Ali, Yosef Ben-Jochannan, James Brown, Ruth
Brown, Stokely Carmichael, John Henrik Clarke,
Joe Frazier, Dizzy Gillespie, Quincy Jones,
Coretta Scott King, Cheryl Lynn, Tenna Marie,
Sade, Gil Scott-Heron, and Chancellor Williams.

James Abbott McNeill Whistler
The Thames Set
Through October 27, 2013
Whistler (American, 1834–1903) was a provocative artist whose “art for art’s
sake” philosophy sparked controversy in his day even while his printmaking
skills garnered positive criticism. Most of his second print set, A Series of
Sixteen Etchings of Scenes on the Thames and Other Subjects, was executed
in 1859, but the set was not published until 1871. This exhibition includes the
complete set, but individual impressions come from different stages in the
evolution of the plates.

Learning Through Art
With funding assistance provided
by a Hearst Foundations grant,
the MMFA Education Department
launched a new outreach program
in September, bringing weekly visual
arts classes to third grade students at
Wares Ferry Road Elementary School
during the 2013–2014 school year.
This unique program includes
hands-on art classes integrated with
the school curriculum, visits from
professional artists, and the use
of Visual Thinking Strategies (VTS) as
a teaching model in the classrooms.
VTS is a teaching technique
embraced by many art museums and
schools that encourages students to
look critically and closely at works of
art to build oral communication skills
and comprehension through group
dialogue. This approach has been
shown to improve students’ critical
thinking skills, literacy, and reading
comprehension.
The Learning Through Art program
began with a teacher training session
at the Museum in August. Students
in the program will also visit the
Museum during the school year and
have an end-of-the-year art show at
the Museum.

Color: A Natural History of the
Palette by Victoria Finlay
Discover the tantalizing true
stories behind your favorite
colors.
For example: Cleopatra used
saffron – a source of the color
yellow – for seduction. Extracted
from an Afghan mine, the blue
“ultramarine” paint used by
Michelangelo was so expensive
he couldn’t afford to buy it
himself. Since ancient times,
carmine red – still found in
lipsticks and Cherry Coke today
– has come from the hard shell of
insects.

In Memoriam
Isaiah Ferguson
The Museum wishes to honor the
memory of Isaiah Ferguson, who
was a dedicated security officer at
the Montgomery Museum of Fine Arts
for more than five years. He lost his
courageous battle with cancer on
Saturday, August 3, 2013.
With his passing, the Museum has lost a valued member of its family;
however, Mr. Ferguson’s legacy will be found in the continuing joy and
happiness of the visitors he spoke with every day during his tenure.
By his dedicated service, he ensured that the Museum can continue
its mission to collect, preserve, exhibit, and interpret art of the highest
quality for the enrichment, enlightenment, and enjoyment of its public.
