MISSION STATEMENT: The museum provides rich environments for a wide range of audiences to investigate and experience excellence in modern and contemporary art. The museum accomplishes this through innovative exhibitions, education, interpretative programs and direct access to the creative process.

SPECIAL LECTURE SERIES: BIRDS IN ART

The Art School is pleased to offer this series by a prominent figure in the birding community. Expand your understanding and appreciation of how birds have figured in art beginning with prehistoric markings on cave walls progressing all the way to the sophisticated illustrations found in current field guides for today’s bird watchers.

Just back from a round-the-world birding program, Robin will explore the rich texture of our appreciation of birds in Western painting and poetry, as well as take time to observe and discuss species in the grounds of Laguna Gloria.

Dr. Robin Doughty 6 classes Sept 25–Oct 30 (Tues) 6pm–7:30pm $100 (Members: $90) ROBIN DOUGHTY: Professor Emeritus UT/Austin, has authored ten books, mostly about birds. He is interested in the history of wild animal use and conservation, and his most recent co-authored work, The Albatross and The Fish (UT Press, 2011), received a forward from HRH Prince Charles.

vISITING CERAMIC ARTIST PROGRAM: JANIS MARS wUNDERLICH

For our 4th Visiting Ceramic Artist Program, The Art School welcomes Janis Mars Wunderlich. With more than 70 national and international exhibitions in the past five years, including the American Craft Museum, SOFA Chicago and the Barrick Museum, her work can be seen across the world and in numerous museum collections.

“My imagery captures the exhaustion and exhilaration of life as both a creative artist and busy parent. My children inspire me with their imaginative minds and animal-like energy. As I nurture and care for them, they continually feed my thoughts with their fairytale-like quirkiness.

My sculptures are handbuilt using thin, slab-like coils of clay. The glaze surfaces are built up by multifiring layers of underglaze, slips, and overglaze.”

Janis has been the recipient of numerous awards and grants, including multiple fellowships from The Ohio Arts Council and The Greater Columbus Arts Council. She received her BFA from Brigham Young University and her MFA from Ohio State University and currently lives in Ohio with her husband and five children.
