Amongthem were George Bellows’ Emma at the Piano, Bonifazio dé Pitati’s Lotand His Daughters, and Red Grooms’ Fireman.Reinstallation of our McKinnon Galleries of Modern Art broughta number of objects out of storage and into the conservationlaboratory for examination and treatment. Examples of paintingsrecently cleaned and put on view include Theodoros Stamos’ WhiteNight, and Karel Appel’s Women Admiring Themselves.After decades rolled up in storage, visitors, and longtime Norfolkresidents were able to admire a 30-foot-long mural of the city’swaterfront painted in 1965 by Kenneth Harris. In order to show it, thepainting needed to be stabilized and mounted onto a new stretcher.In an ongoing effort to engage and inform the public about theimportance of preservation, another conservation treatment wascarried out in view of the public in our galleries by ChryslerConservator Mark Lewis and our National Endowment forthe Humanities Fellow, Amelia Jensen. This year’s project wasrestoration on the early-17th-century Venetian painting The Findingof Moses by Jacopo Palma. School groups and visitors of all ages hadthe opportunity to watch our conservators work and to ask questionsabout the process of restoration. In all, they helped guests learnmore about why and how museums study, analyze, and preservetheir collections.

19EXHIBITIONSn Cameo Performances:Masterpieces of Cameo Glassfrom the Chrysler’s CollectionOngoing since June 2008 inthe Decorative Arts GalleryHighlighting the skills of mastercarvers and their sources ofinspiration, cameo glass steals thespotlight in this show drawn from theMuseum’s renowned glass collection.Exploring the history of cameo glasscarving beginning with ancientRoman examples, this exhibitionfocuses on the popular resurgence ofthe technique in England during thelate 19th century.n Portraying a Nation:American Portrait Photography,1850–2010August 25, 2010–September 11,2011 in the Alice R. and Sol B.Frank Photography GalleriesFrom the rise of the daguerreotypein the 1840s to the digital imageryof today, photography has playeda crucial role in capturing anddefining who we are as Americans.Drawn from the Chrysler’s extensivephotography collection, Portrayinga Nation presented more than 100portraits by American photographers.Four thematic sections—“Friendsand Family,” “I Am What I Do,”“My Message is My Meaning,” and“Joiners and Loners”—celebrated thevitality and diversity of all those whodefine themselves as Americans.n Contrast: Interactive Workby Daniel RozinOctober 20, 2010–September18, 2011 in the Alice R. andSol B. Frank PhotographyGalleriesRecent advances in digital technologyenable artists to create works thatnot only incorporate change andmovement, but that also respond toviewers in real time. Through the useof video projection and sophisticatedcomputer programs, these artistsallow visitors to actually become apart of the work of art—physicallyand psychologically. As part of ourcontinuing series of small, focusedexhibitions of contemporary art, theChrysler presented a provocative—andwildly popular—group of interactiveinstallations by Daniel Rozin.n An Eye for Architecture:The Etchings ofJohn Taylor ArmsNovember 3, 2010–July 24,2011 in the Kaufman TheatreLobbyThe etcher John Taylor Arms rankedamong the most renowned printmakersin early 20th-century America. A bornarchitectural draftsman, Arms built hisreputation with sensitively renderedimages of the great cathedrals andpicturesque buildings of Europe, as wellas the Gothic-inspired edifices of NewYork City. This exhibition was drawnfrom the Chrysler’s own extensiveholdings of Arms prints, donated inthe mid-1950s by his widow, DorothyNoyes Arms.n American Masterpieces from theBatten CollectionJanuary 26–July 31, 2011 inthe Prints and DrawingsGalleryIn addition to his extraordinarysuccess as a businessman, civic leader,and philanthropist, the late FrankBatten, Sr. was also a distinguished artcollector.

20EXHIBITIONSn Curious George Saves the Day:The Art of Margret and H.A. ReyApril 27–September 18, 2011 in theMcKinnon Galleries of Modern Artn The Civil War: Visual Perspectives, Then and NowApril 1–July 24, 2011 in the Waitzer Community GalleryCommemorating the sesquicentennial of the American Civil War, this selection of photographs,paintings, sculpture, and prints recorded and reflected on different aspects of the War and itsmeaning for 19th-century and contemporary Americans. The works ranged from period battlefieldphotographs to paintings of the famed ironclads in the Battle of Hampton Roads to contemporaryphotos of War re-enactors and a group of challenging prints by Kara Walker. Many of the worksin the exhibition were drawn from the Chrysler’s own extraordinary holdings of Civil War images.Everyone knows Curious George, butfew know the story behind his stories.Our keynote special exhibition of thesummer recounted the hair-raisingtale of how H.A. and Margret Rey,the German Jewish creators of themischievous monkey, fled NaziEurope for the safety of the UnitedStates. Viewers discover how Curious George’s ability tonarrowly evade danger paralleled his creators’ war-timeescapes and which elements of their arduous journeythrough France, Spain, Portugal, and Brazil appeared intheir books. An interactive touch screen and nearly 80original drawings, book mock-ups, personal photographs,and documents told the true story behind the Reys’ bestsellingfiction for children and one of the world’s favoritecharacters.n Al Capp, Li’l Abner, and American Pop ArtApril 27–September 18, 2012 in the McKinnon Galleries of Modern ArtAl Capp’s Li’l Abner was a mainstay of the comics section between 1934 and 1977. At its peak,more than 90 million readers followed the exploits of its dashingly handsome, yet unintelligent,protagonist and his friends in the imaginary rural town of Dogpatch, Kentucky. In the mid-1970s,Capp segued into the realm of fine art, producing paintings and prints modeled on his comics.These 10 prints from the Chrysler Collection—never before exhibited—explored the linksbetween Capp and American Pop art.n Into the Mainstream: Self-Taught Artists from the Garbisch and Gordon CollectionsAugust 13–December 31, 2011 in the Prints and Drawings GalleryThis exhibition paired Old Dominion University’s Baron and Ellin Gordon Collection ofcontemporary art by self-taught artists with the Chrysler’s 19th-century work in the same tradition,as collected by Walter Chrysler, Jr.’s, sister and her husband, Bernice and Edgar Garbisch. Folk artand work by self-taught artists are often marginalized as less than fine art. By critically exploringthe work of crossover artists who have gained academic or art world recognition, student curatorsfrom the latest introduction to the Museum class helped to prove otherwise.

21EXHIBITIONSn Portraits of a City: Views of Norfolk by Kenneth HarrisAugust 24, 2011–January 29, 2012 in the Kaufman Theatre Lobby andthe Waitzer Community Galleryn Our Community Collects: From Dürer to Warhol and BeyondSeptember 17–December 31, 2011 in the Norfolk SouthernChanging GalleriesIt had been nearly two decades since the Chrysler presented an exhibitionof works of art gathered from regional private collections. Since then,the range, depth, and quality of works privately held in Hampton Roadshad advanced exponentially, as the extraordinary works in this exhibitionattested. Featuring more than 100 works of art from nearly 40 collections,From Dürer to Warhol was a celebration of the artistic riches in our midst.It ranged from Old Master European paintings and prints and Americanmodernist paintings to remarkable examples of historic and contemporaryAmerican andEuropean glass. Thislocal exhibition ofinternational treasureswas made possiblethrough the generoussponsorship ofSignature FinancialManagement.Visitors rediscovered Norfolk’s past through the eyes of Kenneth Harris, thecity’s favorite urban landscape painter of the last century. A selection of 30of his beautifully crafted watercolors from the Chrysler Collection provideda nostalgic backward glance at Norfolk in the 1950s. And a monumental oilmural, a loan from Marion and James Baylor to the City of Norfolk, showedthe sweeping vista of its waterfront business district in the 1960s. Together,they depicted not only the city’s best-loved landmarks—the old NorfolkAcademy, the Moses Myers House, St. Paul’s Church—but its downtown,docks, and coal yards—the city’s commercial and industrial heart. Bothaesthetic triumphs and invaluable historical documents, these Portraits of a Citycaptured both the look and the feel of Norfolk at mid-20th-century beforeurban renewal projects swept the old port city.n Mark Rothko: Perceptions of BeingSeptember 28, 2011–January 22, 2012 in Gallery 112-Aoff Huber CourtThe Chrysler’s own No. 5 (Untitled),1949, served as the centerpiece ofthis focused exhibition of work bythe great New York school artist.The five paintings on loan fromthe National Gallery of Art inWashington, D.C.—each a gift of theMark Rothko Foundation—showedthe evolution of the modernist’swork from the early-1940s to themid-1960s.

Frank Photography GalleriesFrom 1983–1989 photographer Baldwin Lee traveledthrough African-American communities in the Southcapturing images of extraordinary places and people.Working with a large-format view camera in the traditionof his teachers, Walker Evans and Minor White, Leecreated works of great form, beauty, and subtlety thatreveal a deep feeling for his subjects and their lifestories.
