From the Director
Board of Trustees
Dear Friends,
welcome
Lewis Kruger
Chairman
Everything came up roses for us last spring. We opened two highly
popular shows, Dead or Alive: Nature Becomes Art and Bespoke: The
Handbuilt Bicycle, which brought us enthusiastic reviews from
publications and blogs from as far away as Moscow, Singapore,
and Adelaide. (You can read a few choice plaudits from the local
press on page 3.) And our Zombo Italiano film series, conceived as a
diverting complement to Dead or Alive, brought to MAD a throng of
20-somethings, almost all new to the museum. If our visitor surveys
are to be trusted, these young moviegoers will be coming back for
the exhibitions as well as the film offerings. We also grabbed the
attention of Columbus Circle passersby, especially cyclists, with
our outdoor “MyBike Photobooth.” During its 12-week run more
than 2000 photos were snapped. (Read more about the project
on page 13.)

We expect to attract still more new audiences this fall with The
Global Africa Project, the pioneering survey of contemporary African
art, design, and craft, co-curated by Lowery Stokes Sims, MAD’s
Charles Bronfman International Curator, and Leslie King-Hammond,
Founding Director of the Center for Race and Culture at the
Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA). Featuring the objects of
some one hundred artists working in Africa, Europe, Asia, the United
States, and the Caribbean, the exhibition showcases a range of fresh
talent emerging from the African continent. It also charts important
new territory by actively looking beyond restrictions of traditional
art historical groupings. A compelling schedule of public programs
will accompany the exhibition, including a series of lectures and
panel discussions, entitled “Vibrant Space,” which examine how
physical, digital, and physiological environments have both formed
and informed expressions of African identity throughout the globe.

Exploring new worlds and considering identities could be the
themes to our autumn lineup, which begins with the American
debut of the winners of the second annual Abraaj Capital Art Prize,
an award focusing on contemporary artistic production from the
Middle East, North Africa, and South Asia, a region known as the
MENASA. October marks the premiere of Think Again: New Latin
American Jewelry. And a true premiere it is, as this is the first survey
of contemporary Latin American jewelry ever in North America.
Much like The Global Africa Project, it is an exhibition that challenges
stereotypes about a singular African aesthetic. In November, our
MADProject gallery presents Patrick Jouin: Design and Gesture, an
exhibition conceived by the French design phenom, known for his
technical wizardry and brilliant twists on familiar objects.
If these offerings aren’t enough for the makings of a lively fall
season, don’t forget that in October, we will be holding our
METALBALL, our second annual young patrons gala, on the 18th,
and two days later, opening LOOT!2010, our tenth biennial exhibition
and sale of contemporary one-of-a-kind jewelry. It’s the first time
we’ve put on this special show in the galleries of 2 Columbus Circle.
And then on November 17, we have our Visionaries! gala. With
such an exciting program of exhibitions and events ahead, we
hope to see you here often this autumn, participating in our MAD
experiments in giving new meaning and access to the creations
of artists working in diverse and unexpected media.

Drawing from MAD’s collection,
the exhibition features 60 objects
for eating and drinking by such
artists as Ted Muehling, Cindy
Sherman, and Dale Chihuly.
Featured works range from the
beautifully handcrafted vessels
of the early years of the collection, to elegant flatware and
goblets, to recent conceptual
works by artists such as Paul
Scott, who uses the familiarity of tableware as a frame for
contemporary issues. The show
reveals the ways in which the
table can be a domestic setting for families and feasts, as
well as an intellectual space for
ideas and history.

Algernon Miller’s latest work Change (2010), featured in The Global Africa
Project, invokes the tapestry-like wall installations that he fashioned out
of scrap metal early on in his four-decade artistic career. This time, the
65-year-old Harlem native crafted the work out of beads made out of
scrap paper, and of a very particular kind. Each bead is composed of
recycled literature from Barack Obama’s presidential campaign. In some
ways, the piece evokes his quilt-inspired design for the newly unveiled
Frederick Douglass monument in Central Park—encoded in the abstract
images are hidden meanings.
Algernon Miller
.........................................................................................................................................................................................
“I became aware that language, which was
sometimes hidden, was part of the function
of African art and textiles, and not just for
the purpose of adornment.”
.........................................................................................................................................................................................
“I’ve always been interested in symbolism,” says Miller, a longtime student of African
art. Through his research, he says: “I became aware that language, which was sometimes hidden, was part of the function of African art and textiles, and not just for the
purpose of adornment.” For Miller, this use of symbols “represented a sort of economy
of ideas—no waste—a door to another ethos in which one object could have layered
meanings like different levels of consciousness.”
Referencing the recent presidential election, Change at first glance seems to concern
itself with American history. But a deeper investigation reveals it to be a compelling
document of a dialogue between two continents and cultures. And so it is, as the work
is a collaborative endeavor between Miller and the bead makers of the Kwetu Afrika
Art and Design Development Centre in Uganda, who cut the pamphlets into triangular
or rectangular shapes and rolled them around twigs to make the beads. The artist
discovered their rolled paper work at the Go Green Expo in New York City last spring,
and dazzled by their artistry, immediately launched upon creating this large 8-by-10
foot installation.
“Everything was done electronically, through the Internet and telephone,” says Miller who,
has never met any of the approximately 40 women members of the cooperative, established by the Ugandan painter and jewelry designer Sanaa Gateja, who also had a hand
in the work’s creation. “But I hear that every one of them is so excited and eager to make
more and I want to be able to help them and provide a source of livelihood for them.”
The tapestry is one of the highlights in
The Global Africa Project, a high concept,
yet tactile work that combines history
and current affairs, handcraft and digital
technology, and perhaps, most importantly,
artistic and humanitarian pursuits—the
latter a thread that ties all aspects of the
work together.

Cinema Invades MAD!
Kicking off with the series, Zombo Italiano:
The Italian Zombie Movement, 1972–1985, this
summer saw the return of cinema programming to MAD’s historic theater. In conjunction
with the exhibition Dead or Alive: Nature
Becomes Art, MAD presented ten rarely
screened classics from master directors including Lucio Fulci, Pier Paolo Pasolini, and
George A. Romero. This was an opportunity to
showcase an under-recognized group of artists who changed cinema history through their
pioneering blend of horror, special effects, and
social critique. Zombo Italiano introduced MAD
to a new group of visitors, cult horror movie
fans, who were mostly young men—not our
usual demographic. Since they gave us high
marks for our film programming, we’re hoping
they’ll come back to see our exhibitions. This

Architecture + Design Evenings
an art jewelry gallery in New York’s Plaza Hotel, who took him on
as an artist. Yet it wasn’t until 1976, that Robert became a major
player in the fashion world when his jewelry appeared on the
cover of Vogue. (The fashion bible went on to feature his work in
a record 49 consecutive issues!) When Sonnabend’s gallery closed
in 1977, Robert established his own called ARTWEAR, representing his work and that of other like-minded artists. The SoHo space
set contemporary jewelry trends for nearly two decades, until it
closed in 1995. In its place, he established the shop RLM to purvey
his jewelry exclusively.
Robert’s road to success was not paved with the precious metals
he now fashions into his signature jewelry. But that doesn’t mean
he wasn’t always part of the zeitgeist. At the start of his career,
in the late 1960s, he embraced the studio craft movement, which
at the time, he says, epitomized the “inherent coolness of the
American Craft Council, craft fairs, and the celebration of everything handmade.” Shortly after graduating from Beloit College,
this self-described hippy united a dozen similarly-minded artists
on a “craft farm” commune. A few years later, in 1971, when
peddling his work at Vermont’s Putney School Craft Fair, he was
discovered by Joan Sonnebend, the director of Sculpture to Wear,
While his style has definitely evolved over the years, he says
his original aesthetic, which he describes as “tribal and futuristic, sculptural and bold—a fusion of cultures,” can still be seen
in all he creates. It’s this timeless originality that has earned
Robert numerous honors—among them a Coty in 1981 and
three CFDA awards. In fact, he was the first jewelry designer to
win the CFDA’s Geoffrey Beene Lifetime Achievement Award.
Distinguished as his career has been, he’s always believed in
giving back. He has served on the Board of Trustees of his alma
mater Beloit for 15 years and as Treasurer of the Board for the
Foundation for Shamanic Studies, in Mill Valley, California.

selling exhibition, for which he
also serves as Vice Chair of the gala benefit preview. Needless to
say, MAD’s immensely grateful that he agreed to come “on board.”
This series, open to Curators Circle members
and up, offers behind-the-scenes tours of New
York’s most cutting-edge architectural works
hosted by builders and designers. This year the
group visited Thom Mayne’s new building at
Cooper Union and many of the buildings
that hosted Antony Gormley’s Event Horizon
installation. Upcoming events include a visit to
Norman Foster’s Hearst Tower.
Recently, he’s partnered with QVC to sell not only RLM, but also a
new line of “useable art” housewares. As savvy a retailer as he is a
designer, through QVC Robert has also set up a Facebook fanpage
for his RLM Studio line, which will promote both the METALBALL
and LOOT!2010.
She also happens to be a member of the Council on Foreign
Relations, and she serves as Co-Chair for the Muscular Dystrophy
Association’s Wings Over Wall Street benefit for ALS research.
For Angela, joining MAD’s board is not just another distinction
to add to her already illustrious CV. It is a deeply felt honor and
joy. She speaks with passion and enthusiasm about attending
the Museum’s recent exhibition, Slash, which rekindled her
fascination with paper art. Walking through the galleries, Angela
was taken by the ability of the artists to transform this ordinary
material into fantastical creations. The fastidiousness of the
craftsmanship amazed her. In fact, she feels the art exhibited
at MAD possesses a certain authenticity and stand-alone worth
that some contemporary works seem to lack. “It’s the storytelling
behind the hands-on creation of each piece that I find so inspiring,” she says. “I see a parallel there with the story of MAD’s own
reinvention—its changew of location, its re-branding, its decision to dedicate itself to unique exhibitions and programming.
That’s why when I first visited Slash, I felt a visceral connection
not just to the art, but also to the Museum and what it stands
for, its brave commitment to artisanship, to aesthetic values, to
metamorphosis. I am delighted to be able to assist in its future
growth.”
Being a corporate executive, overseeing new business
development, long-term strategic planning and the management
of corporate-wide initiatives for Bloomberg, you might not think
Angela has an artistic soul. But she confesses that she’s been
entranced with art and craft since she was seven years old and
her parents enrolled her in a graduate-level studio art course.
Overwhelmed at first, she soon found her stride, as she has in
just about everything else. She is, after all, a Summa Cum Laude
graduate of Harvard College, with a J.D. from Harvard Law School.

We saw first hand how design can improve everyday life—
from furniture and textiles to cutlery and ceramics. The
all-encompassing quest for “ideal forms” among Scandinavian
designers has led them to find inspiration from the wonderful
variety of shapes found in the natural world, such as frozen
ice patterns, curving lake shores, and tree bark textures.
We attended the opera in Norway’s extraordinary Snøhetta
Opera House after a backstage architectural tour; visited Fiskars
Village in Finland, a unique town inhabited entirely by artists
and makers; dined in the finest restaurants; and even had a
guided tour of the world-renowned glass artist Oiva Toikka’s
retrospective exhibition at the Design Museum of Finland by the
artist himself, who was kind enough to share a meal with us
afterwards. It was a trip that left a lasting impression. Become
