This Annual Report includes many wonderful programs, exhibitions, gifts

and acquisitions that preceded my tenure as the Museum’s Director (which

began Oct. 1, 2012). As I review those achievements in the following pages,

I am reminded of what a dedicated, talented group of Board members,

staff and volunteers we have! The Annual Report is a clear indicator of

ongoing, dedicated activity by many good folks; it also communicates our

commitment to arts education – the heart and soul of our core mission. Our

Education department is thriving in its enrichment of lives at every age.

After completing my first year in Mobile, I am pleased to report I am very

happy to be here and honored to be associated with this fine Museum. I

look forward to building upon the successes of the past as we begin year-

long preparations and activities for our 50th Anniversary, culminating in

celebrations in early November 2014.

It’s been a good year... and we expect an even better year to cite in our next

Annual Report!

JOHN JAMES AUDUBON: American Artist and Naturalist

October 14 to January 8, 2012

John James Audubon’s (1785-1851) accomplishments as a naturalist and artist

were chronicled in this exhibition. His written journals kept over a lifetime

stand as an unsurpassed contribution to the world of fine art, natural science,

American history and literature. The exhibition featured 51 Double Elephant

Folio size, hand-colored engravings from his masterwork, The Birds of

America, printed in England between 1826 and 1838.

The Birds of America consists of four volumes containing 435 hand-

colored plates portraying 1,065 birds. Life-size images of the birds, from

the snowy owl to the blue heron, were printed on sheets of J. Whatman

Double Elephant laid paper measuring 26 1/2 inches by 39 inches, the largest

size available. Fewer than 200 of the complete four-volume sets were ever

printed.

The exhibition also presented original works by Audubon, including

oil paintings, a drawing and watercolors with his field notes, as well as

comparative prints and a portrait of Audubon by his contemporaries, original

letters, documents, personal items, rare books and photographs.

Reflections and Projections: A Collaboration of Music and Art

October 14 to January 8, 2012

Birmingham artist Sally Johnson and Miami-based composer Dorothy

Hindman collaborated to create this installation of projected and still images

in an environment of ambient “aleatory” music. The inspiration for this

project was a conversation Johnson had with legendary avant-garde musician

John Cage (1912-1992). Aleatory music, as Cage employed it, incorporates

random or accidental elements and has been an important contribution to

modern music, dance and drama. The exhibition was conceived to involve

the viewer in an experience of chance interaction with the projected and

still images produced by Johnson and with Hindman’s music, which came

from nine separate music sources playing individual lines of music begun in

random fashion.

This exhibition was organized by the Mobile Museum of Art and Sally

Wood Johnson and was supported by a grant from the Alabama State Council

on the Arts and the National Endowment for the Arts.

EXHIBITIONS6

Celebrating Our Maritime Heritage: A Coastal Holiday

December 9 to January 8, 2012

Juror Ben Shamback selected this display of works by local artists on the

theme of coastal and maritime life from well over 100 submissions. Shamback

is a highly accomplished realist painter and instructor at the University of

South Alabama. Works in the show depicted the picturesque waterfront

and estuaries of the Mobile area as well as wildlife fishing boats and other

water-based activities. Best of Show honors went to William C. Morris for

his incredibly detailed and evocative scene of a snowy egret flying over the

Mobile Delta as the sun sets behind a bank of clouds.

FACING SOUTH: Portraits of Southern Artists by Jerry Siegel

January 13 to April 1, 2012

This series of portraits by Jerry Siegel is the result of more than 15 years of

traveling to visit the homes and studios of the South’s most significant artists.

As a young man, Siegel had become acquainted with many artists through

his namesake uncle’s Selma gallery, which was one of the first to collect and

promote Southern artists. This project began as Siegel was photographing

some of his friends who happened to be older artists and realized the value a

more complete record would have for art historians.

In all, 100 intimate, sympathetically composed portraits of the artists

– potters, sculptors, photographers, painters and writers – were presented.

A book by the same name was released with the opening of the exhibition.

Co-published by The University of Alabama Press and the Jule Collins Smith

Museum of Fine Art at Auburn University, Facing South includes brief

biographies of these remarkable artists and essays by Marilyn Laufer, Dennis

Harper and Julian Cox. The exhibition was organized by the Jule Collins Smith

Museum of Fine Art at Auburn University.

The American Society of Marine Artists 15th National Exhibition

January 20 to April 8, 2012

Since its founding in 1978, the American Society of Marine Artists has brought

together some of America’s most talented contemporary artists in the marine

art field. Their most highly anticipated exhibition is the national juried

exhibition, which is held every three years. In this, their 15th show, the 122

paintings, sculptures and scrimshaw pieces carry the centuries-old traditions

of maritime art into the 21st century and demonstrate the continuing vitality

of the art form.

Organized by the American Society of Marine Artists, the exhibition

was accompanied by a fully illustrated catalogue. The exhibition was

supported locally by a grant from The C. D., Helen and Jeff Glaze Foundation.

BOXES AND THEIR MAKERS

April 6 to July 1, 2012

An international selection of world class artists / woodworkers was invited

to create the objects for this exhibition. Variously playful, elegant, beautiful,

whimsical, sculptural or conceptual, the work of the 33 craftspeople in this

show defies the common notion of what a box is. For the purpose of this

exhibition, a box was defined as a container (however little it might hold)

that would fit on a tabletop and be made primarily of wood (although

the box by Kip Christensen was mostly antelope antler). The works in this

exhibition were selected by three curators. Oscar Fitzgerald is an author,

furniture historian and decorative arts consultant. Toni Sikes is Founder,

Artistic Advisor, Board member and former CEO of The Guild, a Wisconsin

company dedicated to helping artists market and sell their work. Kevin

Wallace is Director of the Beatrice Wood Center for the Arts in Ojai,

California.

This exhibition originated at the Messler Gallery of the Center for

Furniture Craftsmanship, Rockport, Maine. It was sponsored in part by IRWIN

Tools and Accessories.

TODAY’S VISUAL LANGUAGE: Southern Abstraction, A Fresh Look

April 20 to September 16, 2012

Accomplishments in abstract art over the last 20 years were featured in

this exhibition of work by 37 artists with ties in heritage or training to

Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, Tennessee,

South Carolina and Virginia. The genre of abstract, non-representational

art was shown as a living, vibrant form of expression for these artists with

Southeastern ties. The works encompassed a variety of media including

painting on canvas and paper, drawings on paper, glass, fiber/mixed media

and collage materials. This range of materials is suggestive of the diversity of

approaches to creating abstract art today – stylistically ranging from neo-

expressionism, post-painterly abstraction, pattern and decoration through

areas of indefinable individualism and experimentation. Organized by the

Mobile Museum of art, the exhibition was curated by Paul W. Richelson and

Donan Klooz. The exhibition catalogue was produced as a digital document

that can be viewed at the Museum’s website.

THE HEART OF ECHIZEN: Wood-Fired Works by Contemporary Masters

April 13 to July 28, 2012

Ceramic craftsmen working in the Echizen, in the Fukui prefecture near the

Sea of Japan, are heirs to a tradition of families there producing utilitarian

ware for the last 800 years. This exhibition highlighted work from 20 potters

of the region. Using locally dug clay, they produce work largely unadorned

except for the residues of wood ash that are a product of the wood-fired

kilns traditionally used. The warm color of the native clay combined with the

swirling deposits and drips of the firing create an earthy, natural appearance,

which has long been prized in Japan. The exhibition was the occasion for a

demonstration given at the Kiln Studio and Gallery in Fairhope, Alabama,

by Echizen artist Tetsura Baito, whose hand-built elephant was among the

most delightful of the works shown. Jointly curated by Christopher Kelly and

Preston Saunders, the exhibition was made possible by the Japan Foundation,

Echizen City, Bridgewater State University and Piedmont College.

Masters of Graphic Art: From the Collection of Gerald Swetsky

April 13 to September 16, 2012

This exhibition of 32 works from the collection of Gerald Swetsky featured

both European 20th-century masters and their predecessors in graphic

expression such as Francisco de Goya, as well as American artists in a range of

stylistic areas. Artists such as Picasso, Chagall, Miro and Dali are most famous

for their work in painting but translated many of their important works

into print media. Often, though, they followed the example of Goya, whose

etching in the collection, The Little Prisoner, was designed specifically as a

print. American artists with iconic images in this exhibition include Norman

Rockwell and Alexander Calder as well as animator Ralph Bakshi, who is

I AM YORK Tut Altman Riddick My People and Places

July 13 to September 23, 2012

“I am York” was Dorothy “Tut” Altman Riddick’s emphatic reply to a

disparaging remark made about the rural Alabama town where her ancestors

were among the first settlers and where she spent most of her childhood. This

effectively silenced the critic and also expresses her feelings of identification

with York, the predominantly African-American town where she grew up

with her grandmother, her aunt and their housekeeper. Tut was allowed a

degree of freedom that was unusual at the time as far as the books she read,

and she was often in the company of her housekeeper and members of the

community. Through these experiences, Tut learned to value people for their

humanity and wisdom regardless of color or social standing, which led her to

work actively for the civil rights movement in Alabama in the 1960s. Personal

relationships have defined much of the artwork she has created over the past

60-plus years, whether they are expressed in portraits or in books featuring

quotes from her friends. Tut’s belief in art as a bridge inspired her to lead a

grassroots effort culminating in the Coleman Center, which opened in York

in 1985. The center fulfills a need she identified in the town. It nurtures

the creativity of town residents and facilitates social change through its

programs, such as an artist-in-residence facility that hosts artists to work on

community-based projects. After graduating from the University of Alabama,

Tut studied at the Art Students League in New York City and was encouraged

to stay there to pursue a career as an artist. Instead, her strong ties to

Alabama brought her back and she became a teacher in Mobile. She enrolled

at Spring Hill College to study printmaking so that she could keep her art

and share it as well. For more than 30 years, Tut took classes at the Penland

School of Crafts in North Carolina, enhancing her skills in almost their entire

catalogue of offerings.

The retrospective features paintings, prints, handmade books,

photography and ceramics created in collaboration with Mobilian Charles

Smith. The exhibition was organized by the Mobile Museum of Art.

CURRICULA-BASED EDUCATION10

CURRICULA-BASED EDUCATION

PACE

The PACE (Pursuing Academic and Creative Excellence)

program in 2011-2012 emphasized geography. Serving

approximately 500 students, Museum educators

presented a grid map and compass rose art activity,

with a focus on longitude and latitude. The interactive

activity was a dance lesson teaching the Highland Fling

with background information. Gallery tours included

artworks that represented different areas of the world

with particular geographic features.

ART BLAST

The Museum’s summer camp, Art Blast, was well

attended in 2012, with 85% capacity enrollment. New

to the program was a partnership with the Mobile

Botanical Gardens, NatureBlast, in which third and

Curricula-based education continues to meet the needs of many in Mobile and surrounding counties. Receiving

positive feedback from parents and teachers alike, the Education department has developed programs that reflect

the Discipline-Based Arts Education principles of history, criticism, aesthetics and production.

fourth graders learned about nature through art

projects. New classes included Arts Extravaganza, Mixed

Media Mania with Music, Travel with Art and Small

Steps to Save the Planet: Recycled Art. With 886 spots

taken out of a possible 1,047, the classrooms were full

with students and inspiration.

Home School Days

Home School Art School provided an opportunity for

homeschooled students in the area to experience a

quality art education. For two semesters, 134 students

had the chance to create original works of art while

learning about art history and art appreciation, both

in the classroom and through the galleries. Three

age levels allow students to move up and learn more

sophisticated principles and techniques each year.

CURRICULA-BASED EDUCATION 11

School Tours

School tours provided an excellent opportunity for area

students to experience art on a firsthand basis. In an effort

to fill a need in the community for more arts education,

the Education department developed 11 themed tours,

four special education tours and five special exhibit tours

that included a docent-led gallery tour and complementary

studio art class. Nearly 5,000 students visited the Museum

over the course of the school year, with positive feedback

from teachers about the quality of the programs. For the

Audubon exhibit, students created their own Audubon-

inspired botanical drawing, and for the American

Society of Marine Artists exhibit, they learned to paint a

seascape. Annual collaborative programs included Mobile

International Festival, Mobile Society of Model Engineers

and Celebrate Black History Month with Gloria Petite

Williams’ Processional Dance event.

Woody’s Song and the Junior League of Mobile

The Junior League of Mobile continued its very generous

support of $2,000 for the art program Woody’s Song

here at the Museum. With enrollment up to 20 this year,

hands-on projects stimulate creativity and communication

in the autistic students who attend. Mobile Museum of

Art Educator Susan Baker and volunteer Carol Wiggins, a

speech pathologist, continue to be vital components of the

program.

After-School Classes

Fall, winter and spring term classes were offered in the

afternoons on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Forty-three

students took advantage of the small class sizes and

excellent opportunity to learn about and do art in a

Museum setting. Elements and principles of art, along with

a variety of mediums, were part of the curricula. Young

artists created portraits, landscapes and still lifes, ending

each term with a reception and art show for family and

friends.

Spring Break Art Camp

The second Spring Break Art Camp, offered April 16-

20, 2012, was successful, with 22 students enjoying art

activities during both morning and afternoon sessions.

With an eye to spring-themed activities, students created

garden décor, as well as fine art and arts and crafts. On

Friday, the older class was treated to a field trip to the

University of South Alabama’s glassblowing studio, where

Rene Culler created a magnificent vase from beginning to

end. Ms. Culler later generously donated the vase to the

Education Wing.

COMMUNITY OUTREACH12

COMMUNITY OUTREACHCommunity Festivals

The Museum participated in a number of civic and

cultural festivals by offering engaging art activities and

experiences. For Bayfest, Museum educators combined

elements of music in the art activities. Festival of Flowers

in the spring was all about the creation of the garden

hats, but the storybook nook was just as popular. At

Earth Day Mobile Bay, participants got an individual

session with Museum educators in the “Creation

Station,” where all the materials that are used to create

a new artistic masterpiece are recycled items.

Family-Friendly Mardi Gras

This annual celebration focuses on the entire family

and presents the artistry behind the local Mardi Gras

traditions. This year for the first time, presenters

from outside of Mobile were invited to participate. In

addition to free admission to the galleries and various

art activities in the Interactive Gallery, Big Chief Jerry

Butler of the New Orleans Mardi Gras Indian Show

came over to lead the parade through the Museum and

discuss the heritage and cultural traditions of the New

Orleans Mardi Gras Indians. Mobile was still represented

well by the always exciting Excelsior Band and of course

all the parade goers.

Education Gallery Exhibitions

Throughout the school year, the walls along the

Education Gallery welcomed students entering the

Museum with works by student and professional artists.

To see high-quality art produced by their peers has

proven to be the best kind of motivation for many

COMMUNITY OUTREACH 13

first time student visitors to explore their

own creativity, as well as deepening their

appreciation for visual art as they visit the

galleries.

Partnership with Mobile Public Library

In July of each year since 2007, the Museum

has hosted the Finale Celebration for the

Mobile Public Library’s Summer Reading

Program. Through this free event, many new

visitors are introduced to the wonderful art

in the galleries, and the Museum continues to

strengthen another community partnership.

During the school year, Museum educators visit

the Toulminville library branch and the Ben May

main library each month to present art activities

and presentations linking back to the Museum’s

traveling exhibitions.

A Special Enhanced Tour

Building on the existing partnership with

the Alabama Institute for the Deaf and Blind

(AIDB), Museum educators and staff from

AIDB worked together to create an enhanced

tour for the blind/low vision adult community

here in Mobile. Special training was provided

to Museum docents and Museum security by

personnel from AIDB, and Museum curators

provided behind-the-scenes access to the

exhibition Elvis at 21: Photographs by Alfred

Wertheimer. Over 20 blind/low vision adult

visitors and their guests enjoyed the tour,

explored an art materials tactile session in the

art gallery and participated in a video session to

evaluate the program’s effectiveness.
