C U R ATO R I A LDuring fiscal year 2007-2008, the CuratorialDepartment presented 13 temporary exhibitionsin the Museum’s first-floor galleries, eight ofwhich were organized completely from theMuseum’s Permanent Collection. ConflictingCurrents: Aspects of American Art 1920 – 1950(September 5 – November 4, 2007) was the firstexhibition drawn entirely from the PermanentCollection to be organized for the Museum’smain gallery. Presenting 120 paintings, drawingsand prints, many for the first time, ConflictingCurrents was a pioneering exhibition, establishingnew benchmarks in scholarship and publicunderstanding of an important subject. Thisyear brought the exhibition Degas In Bronze:The Complete Sculptures (January 26 – April 27,2008) to the Museum, the most ambitiouspresentation ever mounted by the Boca RatonMuseum of Art. The negotiation, installationand supplementary education programmingfor Degas In Bronze involved more than a yearof preparation, as Curatorial staff worked withnumerous American museums and privatelenders to secure Degas paintings and drawingsto amplify the exhibition, while developingoriginal documentary materials to providecontextual information about the works. Theawarding of federal indemnification from theNational Endowment for the Arts IndemnityProgram to help in underwriting the insurancefor the Degas in Bronze exhibition wasa significant affirmation of the Museum’sprofessionalism, and recognition of thenational stature of its programming.George Bolge, Executive Director of the Boca Raton Museum of Art, Professor JoseNetto, Curator of the Museu de Arte de São Paulo, Ambassador Luiz Saint-Brissonde Araujo Castro, Counsul General from Brazil and Michael Gora, President of theBoca Raton Museum of ArtLoans From The Museum CollectionArt to Touch: Exhibition for the Visually Impaired,developed by the Boca Raton Museum of Art, on loanto Nassau County Museum of Art, Roslyn Harbor,New York, May 1 – August 31, 2007Pérez Celis (Argentinean, 1939-2008), Untitled,circa 1991, oil on wood and metal, height 84 inches.Permanent Collection 2006.14.53, gift of Dr. Jay D.Hyman and Nivèse [Nives Oscari] (French, born inCroatia, 1944- ), City, circa 1995, cut and painted steel,height 81 inches.
