| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A | SUMMER WITH THE AVERYS [MILTON | SALLY | MARCH] MAY 11, 2019 - SEPTEMBER 1, 2019 ON MAY 11, 2019, THE BRUCE MUSEUM OPENED SUMMER WITH THE AVERYS [MILTON | SALLY | MARCH]. FEATURING LANDSCAPES, SEASCAPES, BEACH SCENES, AND FIGURAL COMPOSITIONSAS WELL AS RARELY SEEN TRAVEL SKETCHBOOKSTHE EXHIBITION TOOK AN INNOVATIVE APPROACH TO THE SUPERB WORK PRODUCED BY THE AVERY FAMILY. ALONG WITH CANONICAL PAINTINGS BY MILTON AVERY, THE SHOW OFFERED A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY TO BECOME ACQUAINTED WITH THE REMARKABLE ART CREATED BY AVERY'S WIFE SALLY AND THEIR DAUGHTER MARCH. ORGANIZED BY KENNETH E. SILVER, SILVER PROFESSOR OF ART HISTORY AT NEW YORK UNIVERSITY AND BRUCE MUSEUM ADJUNCT CURATOR OF ART, ASSISTED BY STEPHANIE GUYET, BRUCE MUSEUM ZVI GRUNBERG FELLOW, 2018-19, THE EXHIBITION WAS ACCOMPANIED BY A SCHOLARLY CATALOGUE, FEATURING FULL-COLOR ILLUSTRATIONS OF ALL THE WORKS IN THE SHOW. EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMMING INCLUDED LECTURES AND AN AUDIO GUIDE. ASSEMBLING ART: WORKS BY VIN GIULIANI AUGUST 3, 2019 - SEPTEMBER 15, 2019 ASSEMBLING ART: WORKS BY VIN GIULIANI DISPLAYED THE CREATIONS OF GREENWICH NATIVE VINCENT "VIN" GIULIANI, WHO TRANSFORMED SCRAP WOOD, TRINKETS, AND A COLORFUL VARIETY OF FOUND OBJECTS INTO ARTISTIC ASSEMBLAGES THAT REPRESENT EVERYTHING FROM KITSCHY AMERICANA TO QUESTIONS ABOUT THE HUMAN PSYCHE. INSPIRED BY POP ART'S MOCKERY OF AMERICAN CONSUMERISM, GIULIANI COMBINED EVERYDAY OBJECTS TO ILLUSTRATE ECONOMIC, SOCIAL, AND POLITICAL ISSUES OF THE 1960S AND 1970S. VIN GIULIANI GREW UP IN GREENWICH, CT, WITH HIS BROTHER JOHN AND HIS PARENTS AMALIA AND NICOLA. THEY LIVED AT 353 GREENWICH AVENUE WHERE HIS FATHER RAN A SHOE REPAIR SHOP. GIULIANI ATTENDED GREENWICH HIGH SCHOOL, WHERE HE WAS AN AVID ART STUDENT AND CONTRIBUTOR TO THE SCHOOL'S YEARBOOK. AFTER GRADUATING IN 1948, GIULIANI STUDIED ART AT THE PRATT INSTITUTE IN NEW YORK. HE CONTINUED TO LIVE IN GREENWICH AND WORKED AS A GRAPHIC DESIGNER WHILE DEVELOPING HIS SIGNATURE STYLE OF ASSEMBLAGE ART. THE WORKS ON VIEW IN THE BANTLE LECTURE GALLERY WERE DONATED TO THE MUSEUM'S PERMANENT ART COLLECTION BY THE GIULIANI FAMILY AND INCLUDE A NUMBER OF DRAWINGS ON SKETCH PAPER. PRECISE RENDERINGS OF ELEMENTS THAT APPEAR IN HIS ASSEMBLAGES, THE IMAGES APPEAR MORE LIKE BLUEPRINTS THAN SKETCHES. THE DRAWINGS DEMONSTRATE HOW THE DESIGN AND REVISION PROCESS WORKED FOR GIULIANI AS WELL AS HIS TALENT AS A GRAPHIC ARTIST. THIS EXHIBITION ALSO FEATURED A FAMILY-FRIENDLY ART ASSEMBLY ZONE. USING FOUND OBJECTS PROVIDED BY THE MUSEUM, PARTICIPANTS OF ALL AGES CREATED UNIQUE PIECES INSPIRED BY GIULIANI'S WORK AND BY THEIR OWN EXPERIENCES AND IMAGINATIONS. GALLERY HAPPENING: DRAWING ON THE GALLERY WALLS ONLINE PRESENTATION SEPTEMBER 8, 2019 - JANUARY 9, 2020 BRUCE CONSTRUCKS AND THE PUBLIC CELEBRATION OF THE CAMPAIGN FOR THE NEW BRUCE ON SEPTEMBER 8, PROVIDED A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY FOR THE COMMUNITY TO PAINT ON THE GALLERY WALLS.

THE EXHIBITION INTRODUCED VISITORS TO THE BASIC TOOLS AND CONCEPTS THAT INFORM THESE WORKS OF ART AND PRESENTS THESE PIECES IN THEIR HISTORICAL AND PRESENT-DAY CONTEXTS. ALSO KNOWN AS WATER-PAINTING, BRUSHWORK HAS A LONG AND ILLUSTRIOUS HISTORY IN CHINA. THE ART FORM DEVELOPED DIRECTLY FROM THE PRACTICE OF CALLIGRAPHY, OR "BEAUTIFUL WRITING," SOMETIME DURING THE HAN DYNASTY (220-589 AD). TRADITIONALLY, BRUSHWORK WAS NOT PRACTICED BY PROFESSIONAL ARTISTS BUT BY AMATEURS COLLOQUIALLY KNOWN AS SCHOLAR ARTISTS, WHO PRIDED THEMSELVES ON THEIR MASTERY OF CALLIGRAPHY AND INCORPORATED PAINTING INTO THEIR POEMS. TODAY THE LEGACY OF THE SCHOLAR ARTIST LIVES ON IN CHINA AND IN THE CREATION OF THESE CONTEMPORARY WORKS OF ART. COLLECTING REIMAGINED: A 2D CURIOSITY CABINET DECEMBER 14, 2019 - MARCH 29, 2020 THE PRACTICE OF COLLECTING OBJECTS AND PUTTING THEM ON DISPLAY IN CABINETS OF CURIOSITIES REACHED ITS PEAK AMONG EUROPEAN COLLECTORS, SCIENTISTS, AND ROYALTY DURING THE 16TH AND 17TH CENTURIES. THE PURPOSES OF THESE ROOMS VARIED, FROM SHOWCASING PRIZED POSSESSIONS TO SERVING AS EDUCATIONAL TOOLS. SOME CABINET OWNERS EVEN ASPIRED TO THE METAPHYSICAL IN THEIR DESIRE TO CREATE A MICROCOSM OF THE UNIVERSE THROUGH THEIR COLLECTIONS. ON VIEW DECEMBER 14, 2019 THROUGH MARCH 29, 2020, COLLECTING REIMAGINED: A 2D CURIOSITY CABINET WAS CURATED BY H.S. MILLER, THE MUSEUM'S ZVI GRUNBERG RESIDENT FELLOW 2019-20. THE EXHIBITION WAS BASED ON A CHAPTER OF THE MASTER'S DISSERTATION MILLER COMPLETED WHILE STUDYING AT THE UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH IN SCOTLAND. DRAWING INSPIRATION FROM THESE CABINETS ON PAPER, THIS EXHIBITION USES PRINTED WORKS, PHOTOGRAPHS, MEDALS, TEXTILES, AND SCRIMSHAW FROM THE BRUCE MUSEUM COLLECTIONS TO CREATE A CABINET FILLED WITH TWO-DIMENSIONAL DEPICTIONS OF TYPICAL THREE-DIMENSIONAL CABINET OBJECTS. ON THE EDGE OF THE WORLD: MASTERWORKS BY LAURITS ANDERSEN RING FROM SMKTHE NATIONAL GALLERY OF DENMARK FEBRUARY 1, 2020 - AUGUST 9, 2020 FOLLOWING AN EXTENSIVE, FIVE-MONTH-LONG RENOVATION OF ITS CHANGING GALLERY SPACES, THE BRUCE MUSEUM WAS PLEASED TO PRESENT A MAJOR NEW INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION, ON THE EDGE OF THE WORLD: MASTERWORKS BY LAURITS ANDERSEN RING FROM SMKTHE NATIONAL GALLERY OF DENMARK. INITIATED BY THE AMERICAN FRIENDS OF STATENS MUSEUM FOR KUNST, THE NATIONAL GALLERY OF DENMARK, THE EXHIBITION OPENED ON SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 1, 2020, AND WAS ON VIEW IN THE MUSEUM'S NEWLY EXPANDED MAIN ART GALLERY THROUGH SUNDAY, AUGUST 9, 2020. L.A. RING (1854-1933), A REALIST AND SYMBOLIST PAINTER, IS CONSIDERED ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT FIGURES IN DANISH ART. THE NATIONAL GALLERY OF DENMARK HOLDS THE LARGEST COLLECTION OF RING'S PAINTINGS AND DRAWINGS IN THE WORLD; ON THE EDGE OF THE WORLD SHOWCASED 25 OF THE MOST IMPORTANT PIECES THAT REPRESENT THE KEY THEMES AND SHEER VARIETY AND COMPLEXITY OF HIS OEUVRE. THE EXHIBITION TRAVELED TO ONLY TWO U.S. VENUES. THE BRUCE MUSEUM WAS THE ONLY VENUE ON THE EAST COAST. THROUGH HIS ART, RING DESCRIBED A TIME OF GREAT UPHEAVAL IN DENMARK. THE PROCESSES OF INDUSTRIALIZATION CAUSED MAJOR CHANGES TO THE LABOR MARKET; NEW ENTERPRISES FLOURISHED, AND PEOPLE MOVED FROM THE COUNTRY TO THE CITIES. DENMARK WAS ON THE WAY TO BECOMING A MODERN SOCIETY. ALTHOUGH L.A. RING LIVED IN DENMARK ALL HIS LIFE, HIS WORKS DISPLAY CERTAIN PARALLELS TO THE LANDSCAPES OF AMERICAN REALISM AND NATURALISM. AND JUST AS L.A. RING WAS KEENLY INTERESTED IN HOW INDIVIDUAL MAN HANDLED THE EXISTENTIAL CHALLENGES ARISING AS A RESULT OF THE MODERN BREAKTHROUGH, SO TOO WERE MANY AMERICAN ARTISTS OF THE TIME. POISED BETWEEN REALISM AND SYMBOLISM, L.A. RING'S ART EXPLORES MANKIND'S INNER LIFE, WHICH FOR HIM WAS OFTEN INFUSED BY DEPRESSIVE IDEAS AND MELANCHOLY MOODS. DEATH AND THE PASSING OF ALL THINGS IS A RECURRING THEME IN HIS ART INCLUDING HIS MANY ZEALAND LANDSCAPES, WHICH COME TO FORM PERSONAL, DENSELY ATMOSPHERIC LANDSCAPES OF THE SOUL. HOWEVER, OTHER THEMES OF CLOSENESS AND INTIMACY ALSO FOUND THEIR WAY INTO HIS ART AFTER HE MARRIED THE LOVE OF HIS LIFE IN 1896: SIGRID, ELDEST DAUGHTER OF MASTER POTTER HERMAN KHLER. BOTH ASPECTS OF RING HIS MELANCHOLY AIR AND HIS JOY IN LIFE WERE REPRESENTED IN THE EXHIBITION, EDGE OF THE WORLD: MASTERWORKS BY LAURITS ANDERSEN RING FROM SMKTHE NATIONAL GALLERY OF DENMARK. THE EXHIBITION APPEALED TO ART LOVERS AS WELL AS AMERICANS IN GENERAL, AS IT PORTRAYS THE LIFE OF MANY EUROPEAN EMIGRANTS SETTLING IN THE U.S. AROUND 1900. |

EXPLORING THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN LIGHT AND NATURE, VISITORS DISCOVERED THAT FLYING SQUIRRELS CAN GLOW A FLUORESCENT PINK, PELICAN POUCHES BURST INTO COLOR IN INFRARED, AND MACARONI PENGUINS HAVE INVENTED THEIR OWN SPECIAL BRAND OF THE COLOR YELLOW.
