Administrative Staff Contemporary art and practice are at the forefront of discovery. As Barbara London, Video and Media Curator at New York’s Museum of Modern Art points out, “Artists are the harbingers in working with materials and technology that keep updating faster than we can blurb.” Fortunately, we have an exhibition committee that connects us with what is current and insightful. These artists, gallerists, curators, and art teachers who advise the Art Center on exhibitions, collection tours, public programs and studio visits are well informed and connected with the region’s emerging artists and the art world’s most recent trends. In fall 2011 the Art Center will present an exhibition featuring the affinity between art and fashion; a popular motif witnessed by Alexander McQueen at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and Jean-Paul Gaultier at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, among others. In winter 2012 the Art Center will open “Crossing Wires” an exhibition based on technology, featuring work that expands upon or pushes against traditional definitions of art and investigates the relationship between technology and play. Not only do we exhibit the work of our time, we offer instruction by the artists working in these 21 st Century disciplines at our Art School. This fall we will begin to offer more in the area of new media with a remix class and digital narrative production. And our new “Make Room” will be a space in which fabric and thread reigns, where students can explore contemporary dress, decoration and deconstruction. There are many reasons to visit us at the Art Center. However, our mission will not be fulfilled if all you do is look or listen, we also want you to learn - about the artists, the world, and even yourself. To that end, we will be working diligently to offer additional interpretive materials in our galleries and on our web site. Audience engagement is at the very core of our practice here at the Art Center and it has been for over eighty years. I look forward to seeing you in our galleries and classrooms. Make art a part of your life.
