The Figure in Photography, 1995–2005
Drawing on the Museum’s growing collection of
important photography and on loaned works, The Figure
in Photography addressed and explored perceptions of
the self. The eight artists exhibited have been pivotal in
defining the treatment of the figure in the twentieth
and twenty-first centuries. Striking and accessible, the
photographs displayed the intimacy of snapshots while
accentuating a more documentary style. The exhibition
raised questions that fascinated students, faculty, artists,
and the public while providing a glimpse into one of
UVaM’s collection highlights.

Man Ray Film Series
engaging our communities
Man Ray
African Art & the Modernist Lens
This celebrated traveling exhibition, organized by
International Arts & Artists, was a hallmark of the past
year’s exhibition programming. Man Ray, which explored
the perception of African art as mediated by the camera
lens, was well suited to the Museum’s collection strengths
in African objects and photography.
1
This four-part film series included
discussions led by individuals
from four different academic
perspectives—English, French,
art/American studies, and art
history. Addressing topics
inherent to Man Ray such as
African-American performance
and French colonialism in Africa,
the film series added lively
conversation to an enlightening
exhibition and brought different
units across Grounds together for
collaboration and interpretation.
Man Ray brought record crowds to the Museum through
a multitude of public programs, which appealed to all the
communities served by UVaM. Engaging family activities
allowed children and their parents to explore the exhibition,
while collaborations with numerous departments across
Grounds brought a diverse array of faculty and students
to participate in intellectual inquiry.

Derived from UVaM’s growing collection of African
objects and showcasing the Museum’s significant
holdings in this arena, this special exhibition examined
the way African art is currently displayed and perceived
in Museum settings. African Art complemented
the traveling exhibition Man Ray, African Art, and the
Modernist Lens, thereby expanding scholarly discussion
and providing opportunities for new research. The
interplay of the two exhibitions offered a dynamic
season of lectures and special events serving the diverse
interests of UVaM’s patrons.

“WHTJ PBS truly values its
partnership with UVaM. We
find that our organizations
share similar missions,
including education in the
Arts, celebrating the Arts,
and honoring those who
support the Arts. The events
we have done in tandem
have been our most popular
and successful. We thank
Bruce Boucher, Anna von
Gehr, and all of their staff
members for opening
the door to an invaluable
community resource.”

WHTJ PBS
British Art in an Age of Transition
Chronicling the changes in British art during one of its most
intensely productive periods, From Classic to Romantic
was a highlight of UVaM’s Fall 2010 exhibitions. The
exhibition featured works from U.Va.’s Special Collections
Library, a private collection, and loans from the Virginia
Museum of Fine Arts. Thanks to UVaM’s flourishing
partnerships with other institutions, the Museum is able
to bring strategic loans to Charlottesville that enhance
and invigorate the exhibition schedule.
UVaM staff honed their skills with
Richmond-based conservator Scott
Nolley in a workshop on toning
frames with gilt loss. This expertise
was put to use on two frames in
the exhibition.
The exhibition provided the inspiration for a unique
interdisciplinary event—a literary contest in conjunction with
the works on view. A parade featuring student art and
performance was followed by a reading of winning works.

Excavating New Ground
American Art in the 1970s
Excavating New Ground was
an exciting setting for a
sneak peak for members on
February 10. Members
enjoyed refreshments and
lively conversation.
This engaging exhibition focused on the tumultuous
decade of the 1970s and documented the range of artistic
developments that occurred during this period of rapid
social change. Drawn primarily from UVaM’s collection,
the fourteen works exemplified the diversity of artistic
production during the period. Excavating New Ground
invited viewers to see the 1970s as an era unified by its
innovative experimentation, rather than to imagine the
decade as a cacophony of art practice.
Southern Views, which was curated by professor of art and
adjunct curator of photography William Wylie and included
work by assistant professor of art Pamela Pecchio, reflects
UVaM’s strong ties to the McIntire Department of Art.

Andy Warhol’s Photographic Legacy
British Printmaking in the 1970s
From the early twentieth century through the 1950s,
screenprinting was used primarily by professionals
producing textiles, posters, and advertising. In the early
1960s, however, photomechanical processes began to be
seen as a major fine art medium. Artists saw new
possibilities for both their imagery and their craft and
were inspired by attributes of the screenprinting process—
the sleekness of the surface, the precise delineation of
shapes, and the power of strong areas of saturated color
to generate dynamic spatial effects.
UVaM’s collection of Andy Warhol drawings, sculptures,
and screenprints was greatly enhanced in 2009 through the
donation of 153 photographs from the Andy Warhol
Foundation’s Photographic Legacy Program. Displayed in
the popular exhibition Society Portraits, these compelling
images suggest the broad range of Warhol’s photographic
production in the 1970s and 80s. With photography in many
ways at the core of Warhol’s working method, this exhibition
encouraged visitors to contemplate a crucial part of the artist’s
sensibility while providing a glimpse into Warhol’s daily life.
Consisting entirely of prints produced with the collaboration
of Chris Prater—a leading proponent of this medium
in Great Britain—New Images, New Techniques displayed
a vibrant portion of UVaM’s collection.

Serving the community
UVaM’s dedicated docents expand
access to the Museum’s collections
and exhibitions by engaging
visitors in dialogue about the works
on view. An increase in support
for docent training programs has
further augmented UVaM’s ability
to serve its communities.

For more than 20 years, Writer’s Eye has been one of the most
anticipated annual events at the Museum. As the program has grown and
expanded, participation has continued to become more diverse. From third
graders exploring language to adults engaging in a unique dialogue with
the visual arts, Writer’s Eye inspires thousands of people to immerse
themselves in the creative process. This event’s lasting appeal lies in its
ability to provide a context for members of the Museum community to
experience their creativity, both by looking at art and by translating the
visual into the written word.
“My students love participating in the Writer’s Eye competition,
as they enjoy thinking of diverse and creative ways to respond to
selected works of art. The competition affords students the
opportunity to explore their voices as writers and experiment
with point of view and tone.” — Proal Heartwell, English teacher, Village School
“The Writer’s Eye program
not only exposes children
to the fun of learning to look
at art, but allows them to
relate their own personal
experiences as they decide
what to write, happily in
a place where there are no
right or wrong answers.
The combination of exposure
to art and the writing
of prose or poetry makes this
competition individually
and collectively a valuable
asset to all curricula.
This program is often the
first introduction to the
Museum for these children
and their families.”

UVaM
responding to increased demand
Seven times each year, children ages 5–12 gather in the Museum for
Family Art JAMs. Together with their grown-ups, participants are
guided by Museum staff through exhibitions on view. Interactive, ageappropriate tours are designed to ignite the creative process and encourage
children to confidently talk about art. The children’s inspiration is then
put into practice through creating their own works of art in a studio
environment. Increased demand throughout the year led UVaM’s
education department to double the number of Family Art JAM sessions.
UVaM’s highly successful and rewarding Early Visions program has been
invigorated with new training. This six-week program pairs U.Va. students
in mentoring relationships with children from the Boys & Girls Club.
Mentors help plan creative activities that encourage children to explore
the Museum’s exhibitions, and relate the children’s discoveries to their
own lives. This year, docents received diversity and sensitivity training
provided by University and Community Action for Racial Equity (UCARE).
Eyes on Art tours give individuals with Alzheimer’s and their caregivers
the opportunity to explore the works on view in the Museum. Through
a partnership with the Alzheimer’s Art Project of the Central and Western
Virginia Chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association, specially trained docents
lead small-group tours that engage participants in meaningful conversation
about both the past and present.

“At the Family Art JAMs, I see in the children an eagerness
to participate in the art process, and an openness to instruction
and experimentation. I love how Kaylee, at seven years old,
is eager to give her opinion. She feels her ideas are valued; she
shows imagination and thoughtfulness in her responses. It is
wonderful that now twice as many children can participate.”

Presented in partnership with the

during reunion weekend. This
provides an enriching experience
for children while their parents
are free to enjoy reunion activities.
Specialized training
UVaM’s dedication to providing
docents with specialized training
has enabled the Museum to welcome
diverse groups. The Museum’s
docents have guided thousands
through UVaM’s special exhibitions
and collections, thereby opening
doors to new and exciting experiences.
UVaM’s student and community docents share a commitment
to providing access to the Museum’s exhibitions and collections through
education. By volunteering their time to give tours to students, school
groups, and community organizations throughout the year, docents ensure
that visitors to UVaM have the opportunity to engage in conversation
about the Museum’s collections and special exhibitions. Museum docents
spend hundreds of hours organizing and giving tours for UVaM’s signature
education program, Writer’s Eye, which enables the program to be an integral
component of classroom curricula across the region.
In addition to engaging visitors, docents also devote their time to
specialized training provided by Museum staff about exhibitions, collections,
and ways to connect with diverse groups of visitors. With expanded
training this year, docents are now even more prepared to reach the many
communities served by UVaM.

Academic engagement
During the 2010–2011 academic year, 1,209 students from U.Va. and
other colleges visited the Museum as part of their course curricula,
a 17% increase over 2009–2010. Students and faculty examined
approximately 480 objects during tours and study sessions in the Print
Study Gallery, Object Study Gallery, Art Study Research Center,
Millmont off-site storage, and in exhibitions. These students comprised
51 classes, which visited UVaM 65 times. These class visits represent
17 departments and programs at the University, an 89% increase from
the previous academic year.
Faculty from the following departments integrated object study with their
curricula: African-American Studies, American Studies, Anthropology,
Architectural History, Art History, Drama, Education, English
(Creative Writing), French, Global Development Studies, Religious
Studies, Sociology, and Studio Art. In addition, the Museum offered
object study sessions to students and adults in Flash Seminars, the

UVaM continued to gain loyal
student members in the 2010–2011
academic year, in part due to
successful programming aimed at
the student body.
Benefits of membership
Supporting the Museum—The UVaM Fund and UVaM Membership
provide core support that enables the Museum to fulfill its mission and
bring world-class art to the University and Charlottesville communities.
■
Exclusive previews of
special exhibitions
■
Free admission to Final Fridays
■
Advance notice of lectures
and events
■
Reciprocal membership at more
than 75 southeastern museums
■
Discounts on popular
educational programming
■
Invitations to exciting trips
UVaM members provide crucial support for the Museum’s programs,
exhibitions, and acquisitions. Their generosity and dedication to UVaM
extends well beyond financial support; members enliven conversation at lectures
and talks, bring enthusiasm to special events, and help foster the dynamic
learning environment that makes UVaM central to the arts in Charlottesville.
The Museum’s annual giving program—the UVaM Fund—is a vital
component of operational support. This committed group of donors
supports innovative educational programming, state-of-the-art technological
advances, and exciting exhibitions. In addition, donations to the UVaM
Fund help to keep the Museum free and open to the public, serving
and inspiring over 23,000 visitors each year.

UVaM’s newly restored terrace marked the completion of Phase 2 of
Empower Art: the Campaign for the new UVaM. The
terrace is one more step towards the planned 20,000 square foot addition
to the current building. This new wing would increase exhibition space
by 64% and nearly double the usable programming space.

“Members’ trips are exciting opportunities to experience art
both near and far in the company of fellow art enthusiasts.
Trips offer something for everyone!” — David Chennault, UVaM Chief Operating Officer
In addition to their invaluable contribution of time and effort, the Volunteer
Board continues to be a dedicated financial supporter of a number of Museum
programs and exhibitions. In the past year, the Volunteer Board voted to give
their generous financial support to the special exhibition Variety, Archeology,
and Ornament: Renaissance Architectural Prints from Column to Cornice, and
to the conservation of Henry Moore’s magnificent bronze Seated Woman.

The Advisory Board’s steadfast financial support has contributed to the completion
of the Museum’s renovation projects and has enabled aggressive future planning
towards a vision of expanding the Museum. Having helped to envision a new wing,
the commitment and support of the Advisory Board becomes even more crucial as
UVaM embarks on a new capital campaign.

“I have found membership on the Advisory Board increasingly fulfilling
because of the renewed definition of the importance of the Museum
to the broadest aspirations of the University. The completion of the
handsomely redesigned and elegant terrace leads me to imagine an
addition to the Bayly Building with new galleries, more art on view—
an even more welcoming gateway to the Arts Grounds!”

Total revenues
The Museum completed the fiscal year of 2010–2011 in a strong financial
position. This solid performance can be attributed to a number of leading
factors: increased interest earned from endowments; greater than expected
revenues from annual giving and memberships; increased support from the
University; and frugal cost-budget management by the Museum. In the past
year, UVaM also undertook a thorough review of our budgeting process,
which included moving—virtually—all of our accounts to the University’s
Oracle system. Each department now receives monthly updates on its income
and outflow, which are then reviewed between department heads and the
director. This process has given us a clearer sense of control over the budget
as a whole while enabling each manager to have a stronger stake in his or
her department’s spending.
Support from the University has seen steady growth since 2008–2009 with
additional funding coming in the fiscal year 2011–2012. This new support
will allow the Museum to fulfill a key part of its mission through the
continued digitization of its collections, further enhancing both the student
experience of art and that of our broader community. Our development
department has done a wonderful job with our returns for the UVaM Fund,
which rose by 163% to $415,347 in gifts and pledges for the financial year
just ended. Likewise, funding for education increased by 137% to $48,150.
2011–2012 budget
In all, our refocused financial operations have allowed us to establish
a new level of operating, bringing better and more ambitious programming
to Charlottesville. Thank you for your continuing and increasing support.
Mission
The University of Virginia Art Museum is dedicated to creating an
environment in which the largest possible share of its diverse constituencies,
including members of the University community and the general public,
can study and learn from the direct experience of works of art.
The Museum promotes visual literacy as part of a broader, comprehensive
education for all and seeks to enhance its visitors’ perceptions and understanding
of world cultures throughout history and of art as an enduring human
endeavor. To this end, the Museum shall acquire, preserve, study, exhibit,
and interpret works of art of the highest quality in a variety of media that
represent the world’s cultures from earliest times to the present.
