SUMMARY:MODERN BLACK CULTURE: THE ART OF AARON DOUGLAS
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition explores how Aaron Douglas (1899-1979)\, one of the most important modernist artists of the Harlem Renaissance\, gave visual form to the idea that Black American culture is a modern culture of diaspora. Douglas created figures that embody Pan-African ideas of Black achievement and creativity. He traced twentieth-century Black American culture and cultivated the self-image of Black Americans as a cosmopolitan cultural vanguard connected with Black people worldwide. \nThrough more than 40 paintings\, prints\, book and magazine illustrations\, drawings\, and other artworks\, Modern Black Culture demonstrates how Douglas developed an immediately recognizable style and advanced the idea that modern Black American culture drew upon music\, dance\, visual art\, and faith traditions developed in Black communities throughout the world. Sections of the exhibition focus on ways in which Douglas related Black Americans in the urban north with those living in the rural South\, as well as with Haiti\, Africa\, and Egypt. Another section explores Douglas’ connections with North Carolina. \nThe Ackland is fortunate to have a rich and varied collection of works by Aaron Douglas on long-term loan\, ranging from drawings and a sketchbook to items of applied art and a little-known version of one of his major compositions\, Building More Stately Mansions. To this core group have been added works from other well-known North Carolina collections\, including the Wilson Special Collections Library at UNC-Chapel Hill\, the North Carolina Museum of Art\, and Bennett College. \nModern Black Culture is curated by John Bowles\, associate professor of African American art in the UNC-Chapel Hill Department of Art and Art History and faculty affiliate of the Institute for African American Research. Listen to an interview with John Bowles about the exhibition on WCHL by clicking the arrow below. \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:MYTH & MEMORY: SELECTED WORKS BY THE MFA CLASS OF 2022
DESCRIPTION:In Myth & Memory\, five artists interrogate practices of history-making and history-keeping at the individual\, institutional\, and systemic level. Beginning with personal narrative\, each artist engages a vocabulary of fantasy to make visible that which has been forgotten\, obscured\, or erased by white heteropatriarchal modes of dominance. Through intimate gestures and acts of subversion\, they reframe the lens through which memory is archived to tell new stories from a restructured past. Their work imagines potential futures in which marginalized bodies are not under siege. \nParticipating artists are the five UNC-Chapel Hill Class of 2022 Master of Fine Arts in studio art candidates: Raj Bunnag\, Charlie Dupee\, Hugo Ljungbäck\, Phượng Duyên Hải Nguyễn\, and Stella Rosalie Rosen. Myth & Memory is curated by Laura Ritchie ’10 (BFA)\, a curator\, arts administrator\, and cultural worker in Durham; she is a founder and former executive director of The Carrack. \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Artist-Led Tour of “Myth & Memory: Selected Works by the MFA Class of 2022”
DESCRIPTION:Join the 2022 Master of Fine Arts students for a special walk-through! This tour will be led by all five MFA candidates and introduced by exhibition curator Laura Ritchie. \nThrough the work of five artists\, Myth & Memory imagines a future in which the margins become the center. Drawing from personal narrative\, each of the artists engages a vocabulary of fantasy to make visible the stories that have been forgotten\, obscured\, or erased by white heteropatriarchal modes of dominance. Their work interrogates practices of history-making and history-keeping at the individual\, institutional\, and systemic level. Intimate gestures and acts of subversion reframe the lens through which memory is archived and myth is defined. As a result\, new stories emerge from a restructured past. \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Collectors' Seminar: Building an Art Collection
DESCRIPTION:With Drs. John and Nicole Dintenfass\, Moderated by Peter Nisbet \nJoin us for an intimate conversation with Drs. John and Nicole Dintenfass about their lifelong passion for collecting art\, the latest in a series of talks with collectors whose works have been on view at the Ackland. The Dintenfasses have collected art for an astonishing fifty-three years\, beginning with John’s medical residency in West Africa and continuing for several decades as the French and American couple traveled throughout the U.S. and Europe. Their varied collection is comprised of African metalwork — some of which can now be seen at the Ackland in our exhibition Peace\, Power & Prestige: Metal Arts in Africa — but also extends to wooden miniatures\, Chinese art\, and American paintings and coins. The Dintenfasses\, together in conversation with Deputy Director for Curatorial Affairs Peter Nisbet\, will discuss selected works from their African collection currently on view at the Museum\, talk about how they have built and refined their collection\, and share their thoughts on the psychology of collecting art\, the subject of a book they are currently writing. \nSpace is extremely limited at this in-person program and registration is required. Please reserve your free tickets below. \nIf you find yourself unable to attend\, please email acklandrsvp@unc.edu\, so that we may offer the space to others. \nAll visitors to the Ackland Art Museum ages 2 and up must wear a mask at all times while inside the building and adhere to UNC’s community standards listed here. \n\n\n	Related

Participants must adhere to the Ackland’s current visitor policies\, including wearing a mask while in the Museum and practicing social distancing. \nThis tour will be offered twice.

This exhibition presents around seventy European and American drawings\, watercolors\, and collages\, selected from well over 570 acquired both by gift and by purchase over the past twelve years. \nThe works in the exhibition showcase a broad chronological span\, from the sixteenth to the twenty-first centuries\, and a variety of techniques and functions. The display includes works by a wide range of artists\, including Domenichino\, Jan van Goyen\, Thomas Gainsborough\, Edgar Degas\, Otto Dix\, Robert Motherwell\, Thornton Dial\, Marcel Dzama\, and Lauren Frances Adams. The works are presented in ten thematic sections: Varieties of Portraiture; American Abstraction of the 1960s; Fantasy and Transformation; Image and Text in Contemporary Art; German Modernism; Christian Piety; Landscapes and Architectures; Cartoon and Caricature; Sketches and Studies in Nineteenth-Century France and Britain; and a special wall devoted to Very Recent Arrivals which can accommodate new acquisitions made even during the run of the show. \nDrawing Attention\, organized by Peter Nisbet\, deputy director for curatorial affairs\, has been made possible by generous support from the Ackland’s National Advisory Board. \nImage credit: Jan van Goyen\, Dutch\, 1596 – 1656\, “Landscape with Travelers Resting”\, 1649. black chalk with gray wash.

SUMMARY:Curator's Conversation: Introduction to "Visions of Venice"
DESCRIPTION:Zoom (Link Provided with Ticket)\nFree Ticket Required \nJoin Dana E. Cowen\, Sheldon Peck Curator for European and American Art before 1950\, for an in-depth look at Visions of Venice. In this virtual discussion\, participants will learn more about the circumstances of Whistler’s 1879 trip to Venice\, his unique views of the floating city\, his experimental working method\, and how his works were received back in London. \nVisions of Venice: Etchings by James McNeill Whistler from the Collection of Ambassador C. Boyden Gray showcases thirty of Whistler’s etchings of Venice and explores some of the artist’s most picturesque and atmospheric views of the city. Through his use of varied lines\, compelling compositional motifs\, and creative printing techniques\, Whistler depicted sites unknown to the average tourist\, such as back alleyways\, obscure canals\, and working-class neighborhoods\, that challenged the expectations of nineteenth-century viewers and still captivate us today. \nJames McNeill Whistler\, “Palaces”\, 1879- 80\, etching\, frame: 17 15/16 × 21 7/8 × 1 1/4 in. (45.6 × 55.6 × 3.2 cm). Collection of Ambassador C. Boyden Gray\, L2021.1.28. \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Museum Pictionary
DESCRIPTION:Free. Zoom registration required. \nThink you can draw a work of art from description alone? Join us for an afternoon of virtual drawing games based on works now on view in Drawing Attention. Test your drawing skills against two of the Ackland’s curators\, Dana Cowen and Lauren Turner\, in our Zoom-based\, museum version of Pictionary! We’ll take turns drawing and describing and learn more about the art on view in Drawing Attention along the way. \nAbout Drawing Attention \nIn its collections\, exhibitions\, and programs\, the Ackland has always paid special attention to works on paper. This exhibition presents around seventy European and American drawings\, watercolors\, and collages\, selected from well over 570 acquired both by gift and by purchase over the past twelve years. \nThe works in the exhibition showcase a broad chronological span\, from the sixteenth to the twenty-first centuries\, and a variety of techniques and functions. The display includes works by a wide range of artists\, including Domenichino\, Jan van Goyen\, Thomas Gainsborough\, Edgar Degas\, Otto Dix\, Robert Motherwell\, Thornton Dial\, Marcel Dzama\, and Lauren Frances Adams. The works are presented in ten thematic sections: Varieties of Portraiture; American Abstraction of the 1960s; Fantasy and Transformation; Image and Text in Contemporary Art; German Modernism; Christian Piety; Landscapes and Architectures; Cartoon and Caricature; Sketches and Studies in Nineteenth-Century France and Britain; and a special wall devoted to Very Recent Arrivals which can accommodate new acquisitions made even during the run of the show. \nDrawing Attention\, organized by Peter Nisbet\, deputy director for curatorial affairs\, has been made possible by generous support from the Ackland’s National Advisory Board. \nImage Credit: Ilna Ewers Wunderwald\, German\, 1878-1957\, “Common Dragonets (Die Goldgrundel)”\, c. 1910\, Pen and colored ink.
