SUMMER 2015
It’s an exciting time here at The Dayton Art Institute, as we begin to prepare for our centennial celebration in 2019. Looking ahead to this monumental event, the Board and staff have entered into three studies, and I am happy to share some information about them.
The first is a planning study to determine the best interpretation of our collection and galleries, as well as evaluate our programs to best engage the community. For this study we are working with national museum consultants Mary Kay Ingenthron, who is a museum marketing expert, and Diane Frankel, who served as Executive Director of the Institute of Library and Museum Sciences under the Clinton administration.
This study is being privately funded by Tracy & Irv Bieser and Fred Manchur of Kettering Health Network.
The second is a feasibility study to determine if the community will support a Capital and Endowment Campaign in celebration of our centennial. For this study we have hired proven fundraising consultant Michelle Cramer of Cramer & Associates. The museum has not been in campaign since the 1990s, and we hope the Dayton community will support the museum as we prepare for the next century.
The third study is a space study. In the spring of 2014, Ohio Governor John Kasich signed a State Capital Appropriations Bill that included nearly $2.2 million to fund renovation projects at The DAI. To determine how best to utilize that money, The DAI began a process of space studies, with the goal of creating a Centennial Master Plan for renovations, to coincide with the centennial. The DAI is pleased to announce that LWC Incorporated of Dayton has been chosen, through an independent process, as the architectural firm to create the Centennial Master Plan.
As you can see, we are quite busy and have a lot of work ahead of us. I can say with certainty that The DAI is moving in the right direction. We are stronger, both as a team and financially, but we still have much work to do in order to preserve and protect our museum for its second century.
My job is made much easier thanks to the incredible team I get to work with every day: our staff; our volunteers and docents; our Board of Trustees; our financial partners; and our many members and friends – thank you all for your continued support.
I hope you will take the opportunity to see the beautiful American Impressionism exhibition as it enters its final month, and join us for our summer exhibitions, Call to Duty: World War Posters and Tears of Stone: Photographs by Jane Alden Stevens. I look forward to seeing all of you at your Dayton Art Institute!

WAR: WORKS ON PAPER FROM THE COLLECTION
LOWER COURT GALLERIESJULY 18 – NOVEMBER 1, 2015
As a prevailing event across eras and countries, a variety of war-related works can be found amongst The Dayton Art Institute’s collection. Presenting approximately 20 works, this exhibition showcases artistic interpretations of battle scenes, bombardments and soldiers, with intents ranging from glorifying to condemning these events.
RIGHT: Salvador Dali (Spanish, 1904–1989), Battle, 1981, offset lithograph and etching in colors on paper, edition 62/300. Gift of Mr. Chuck Jones, 1985.53
HELP PRESERVE AND PRESENT YOUR COLLECTION!
Thanks to the generous support of three families in 2014, works from the permanent collection received conservation treatment as well as rehousing within period reproduction frames. Consequently, some of The Dayton Art Institute’s finest masterpieces appear in the best possible light and can once again be found hanging in the museum’s galleries.
Hendrick ter Brugghen’s Boy Violinist (1626) and Bernardo Bellotto’s The Pantheon (c. 1742) received conservation treatment in order to remove dirt from the surface of the paintings. Additionally, previous in-painting under the lip of Boy Violinist was removed and reconstituted to more closely reflect the artist’s original intent.
The ter Brugghen and Bartolomeo Manfredi’s Allegory of the Four Seasons (c. 1610) are now housed in cassetta-style frames, a type of frame developed during the Early Renaissance period in Italy (1400–1479). Typically, they are simple, box-like frames (cassetta means “little box”) finished with gold and paint, or left natural and stained. These frames have the same distinctive inner and outer moldings around a rather flat central frieze, and the dark tones of the frames complement the colors present within each painting.
Funds for the conservation of the ter Brugghen were generously provided by the Shillito family, in memory of Chris Shillito. Funds for the framing of both the ter Brugghen and the Manfredi were generously provided by the Sortman Conservation Fund in memory of Ronald Sortman. Funding for the conservation of the Bellotto was provided by Wanda and Bill Lukens.
For more information on how you can help preserve and present your Dayton Art Institute’s collection, please contact the Development Office at 937-512-0139.

CALL TO DUTY: WORLD WAR POSTERS
TEARS OF STONE: PHOTOGRAPHSBY JANE ALDEN STEVENS
SPECIAL EXHIBITION GALLERIESJULY 4 – OCTOBER 4, 2015
Recognizing memorial celebrations surrounding the 100th anniversary of World War I (1914–1918), The Dayton Art Institute presents Call to Duty: World War Posters this summer.
More than 70 original posters from both World War I and World War II tell the story of the massive human efforts put forth during these twentieth-century global conflicts. Displayed in public locations such as post offices, train stations, city halls and businesses, war posters and, perhaps more importantly, the messages they communicated, were ubiquitous throughout the United States.
Artists such as Howard Chandler Christy, James Montgomery Flagg, J. C. Leyendecker, and Norman Rockwell, among others, will be featured in the exhibition. The posters explore themes of recruitment into the armed services; funding of the wars through bonds and other methods; home front efforts which contributed to victory such as conservation and work ethic; campaigns by service organizations such as the Salvation Army, YMCA and Boy Scouts; and the role of women in the war effort. Many of the posters are American, with other examples from Canada, France, Great Britain and other allied nations featured in the exhibition.
The Dayton Art Institute has also borrowed several objects to supplement the exhibition, including uniforms and ephemera from the National Museum of the United States Air Force, the American Red Cross and local private collectors. This exhibition has been organized by the Reading Public Museum, Reading, PA.
In conjunction with Call to Duty: World War Posters, The DAI will also present works by Cincinnati-based photographer Jane Alden Stevens.
Over the course of two years and five trips to Europe, Stevens photographed monuments, cemeteries and battle grounds upon which some of World War I’s bloodiest battles were waged. Nearly 20 large-format prints highlight Stevens’ interests in the visible manifestations of grief, memory and memorialization. Her reverential imagery employs both visual elegance and restraint as she pays homage to the loss and yet, at the same time, finds beauty in her representation of these hallowed grounds. Stevens will be at the museum on Thursday, September 17, to speak about her work. Watch online and in the next Member Magazine for more information.
For more about both of these exhibitions, visit daytonartinstitute.org/calltoduty.
PLEASE NOTE: The museum will be open on the Fourthof July for the opening of these exhibitions.

The Dayton Art Institute’s annual Art Ball is just a few weeks away! This black tie gala, presented by PNC, is the culmination of hard work from the Associate Board, which celebrates its 50th anniversary this year.
Art Ball Chairs Stephanie and Bob Davis selected Ernest Lawson’s painting Through the Aspens (c. 1920s) as the inspiration for this elegant evening, which is Saturday, June 13.
“We chose the Ernest Lawson painting as a result of our affinity and passion for the outdoors,” Stephanie and Bob related. “Both of us have spent considerable time in the west, particularly the Rocky Mountains, and this painting was done in the 1920s, while the artist was spending time in Colorado Springs. It caught our eye for the warm colors, outdoor theme, and the sense of peace and tranquility the mountains and Aspen trees provide. We fell in love with it at first sight and hope you will enjoy it as much as we do.”
The 58th Art Ball begins at 7:00 p.m. with cocktails and hors d’oeuvres, followed by a formal dinner in the museum galleries. Following the meal, guests enjoy music, dancing, open bars, specialty martinis, cigars and liqueurs, and
much more. The VIP Cocktail Hour returns this year, offering early entry to the event for a private reception, with high-end wines and hors d’oeuvres. Space is limited for the VIP Cocktail Hour – make your reservations early!
Art Ball is a major fundraising event for the museum, and key to this effort is the Grand Draw Raffle. Only 600 tickets will be sold for $100 each, with the chance to win one of 100 fabulous prize packages, including high-end jewelry, travel, dining, entertainment and much more.
Even if you aren’t able to attend Art Ball, you can still take part in the Grand Draw Raffle; winners need not be present to win. Call the museum or visit our website for more information and to purchase raffle tickets.
To make your Art Ball reservations, please contact Sponsorship & Special Events Manager, Elaine Gounaris, at [email protected] or 937-512-0153, or visit daytonartinstitute.org/artball. Tickets start at $275 each; VIP upgrade is an additional $50.
We look forward to seeing you at Art Ball!

LANGE FAMILY MAKES GIFT TO SUPPORT EXPERIENCENTER
This past winter, Rich and Kitty Lange – longtime supporters of the Experiencenter through their Lange Family Foundation – made a substantial gift to the museum’s interactive family gallery, which has been renamed The Lange Family Experiencenter.
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CONNECTIONS TO THE DAYTON COMMUNITY. My Grandfather, Carl Lange, grew up in West Alexandria, Ohio and came to Dayton as a young man, where in the early 1930s he started Apex Machine and Tool Co. My father, Julian, grew up in Dayton and with my Mom, Marge, lived there for their entire 47 years of marriage. I was born and raised in Dayton, so our family have been Daytonians for generations.
I attended the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School of Business, where I met my wife Kitty, and upon graduation returned to Dayton to work in the trust department of Winter’s Bank (now JP Morgan Chase). Kitty began working with preschoolers, and I was captivated by her stories of their behavior and creative pursuits. So we went to Michigan State University to get our Masters in Child Development, and we started our first preschool in Lansing. In 1978, when our son Casey was one, we moved to San Antonio, Kitty’s home town, where we started The Acorn School, serving children 2 years 8 months old
through kindergarten (age 6). For the next 20 years, we returned to Dayton for every Christmas, where I saw lots of lifelong friends and maintained my connection to Dayton. We still get together with our closest Dayton friends every year, though some of us are spread around the country.
WHAT IS YOUR INTEREST IN ARTS EDUCATION?As I was growing up, I was blessed to travel with my parents, and we visited many of the outstanding museums of the world, where I learned to appreciate art. I always loved The Dayton Art Institute and valued its well-rounded, extensive collection of quality art. As we visited museums abroad, we would sometimes see classes of students learning about and gaining appreciation for great works of art. We were inspired to do that with our children at The Acorn School.
We maintain that all children are born naturally creative, but too often the parents and teachers in their lives teach the creativity out of them, usually by trying to make them think like adults. For instance, if a child is drawing a picture of the sun and colors it green, blue, purple, pink, or any given color, a lot of adults will be uncomfortable and want the child to color it yellow, stifling their creativity. So we introduce our older students to Monet, Van Gogh, and many other Impressionists, who have drawn suns many of those colors, depending on the play of light and what they saw that moment, or maybe just because of how they felt.
HOW DO YOU HOPE YOUR GIFT MIGHT IMPACT BOTH THE MUSEUM AND THE DAYTON REGION? We’ve devoted most of our lives to working with children and love seeing creative, hands on art experiences offered to students of all ages. Our hope is that the dynamic art activities offered by the Experiencenter will draw students from all over the Dayton area, and they will have their creative juices stimulated to the extent that art of all kinds will be appreciated and become a valued part of their lives.
It’s a wonderful feeling to try to make a positive difference in people’s lives, and Kitty and I greatly appreciate the opportunity to support this exciting Experiencenter.
“EYE TEASERS” FEATURED IN NEW LANGE FAMILY EXPERIENCENTER EXHIBITION
On Saturday, May 9, a new exhibition opens in The Lange Family Experiencenter. Eye Teasers will feature prints, photographs and textiles from the permanent collection highlighting the methods artists use to create optical effects.
Using specific and technically accurate color mixing and linear perspective systems, artists can fool the eye and mind of a viewer into seeing depth and movement on a static surface. The exhibition includes lively prints by Victor Vasarely and Joseph Albers’ studies in color. Woven Navajo blankets, known as “eye dazzlers,” also exemplify the visual intensity of carefully selected color combinations.
Hands-on activities will provide opportunities for visitors of all ages to learn the mechanics of creating optical illusions. Using light tables, paper and spinning tops, visitors can practice drawing and blending colors, apply concepts of visual perspective, and create their own optically illusionistic art. Books, costumes and shadow puppets will inspire imaginations in The Art Place for Young Learners.
Many of these concepts will unite in an installation by Cedric Michael Cox, a Lange Family Experiencenter Yeck Artist-in-Residence. His Rhythm of the City interactive mural will invite visitors to play with lines, shapes and with warm and cool colors to create depth and space in his construction of urban cityscapes. Cox received a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Cincinnati with a concentration in painting. He
has exhibited widely throughout the United States, notably at the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry and the Contemporary Arts Center in Cincinnati.

Curtis Barnes’ daughter, Danita (center, pictured with DAI and Ohio Arts Council board member Sharon Howard and Michael R. Roediger), accepted the Houk Award on her father’s behalf at The DAI’s Annual Meeting.
CURTIS BARNES SR. SELECTED AS HOUK AWARD WINNER
Curtis Barnes Sr. has received the 14th annual Pamela P. Houk Award for Excellence in Art Education. Barnes dedicated his life to the arts and is a revered member of the Dayton arts community. His extensive and lifelong commitment to teaching and guiding aspiring young artists and youth, and to providing the community with opportunities to experience the transformative power of the arts, has helped create “a small army of artists, art educators, art administrators, art collectors and advocates” in Dayton and the Miami Valley, according to Dayton artist Bing Davis.
Barnes began his career as an art educator with the Dayton Public Schools, teaching at Orville Wright Middle School and Meadowdale High School; during the same period he taught
at the Living Arts Center, an afterschool arts program for talented students. He was the founder and member of Genesis III, the first African-American artist group in Dayton. He left Dayton Public Schools to teach at Sinclair Community College from 1977-1994, where he made significant contributions to the Art Department and was honored with the title Professor Emeritus in 1995.
As a teacher, Barnes’ eloquent and inspiring critiques compelled students to expand their notions of art, to make connections between life and art, and to immerse themselves in an expansive creative process. Throughout his teaching career he exhibited his paintings in galleries in the Dayton region and in New York. In 2008 he was awarded a Lifetime Achievement award from the Montgomery County Arts and Cultural District.

MAX MAY MEMORIAL HOLOCAUSTART EXHIBITION
Each year, Renate Frydman and her family honor the memory of her grandfather, Max May, an artist and architect, by sponsoring an art contest that encourages area students in grades 5-12 to focus on the Holocaust as an inspiration for a world that is free of racism, disrespect and intolerance. Held under the auspices of the Holocaust Education Committee of the Jewish Federation of Greater Dayton, a selection of these works will be on display at The DAI from mid-July through mid-October. We thank the family for encouraging teachers to help their students to express artistically that we cannot change the past, but we can change the future.
