DIR E C TOR‘S R E MA RKS Convergence of Legacies
The Spencer is a place where legacies converge. As a museum, our legacy is uniquely entwined with the artists, scholars, and materials we nurture at the University of Kansas. The Spencer Museum provides one of the region’s most lively forums for artists, historians, and cultural critics. Their combined insights infuse our legacy with powerful arguments delivered visually, materially, and through scholarly activity. This spring and summer, we celebrate those who pioneer new expressive forms, make visible the unspoken, and rigorously investigate and interpret the context and meaning of art. Cynthia Schira is one of the preeminent textile artists of our time. Some of her most transformative work uses the textures and imagery of cloth to create new possibilities for the translation of codes from our collections. That Schira has now turned her formidable practice to the underlying patterns discernible in our collection is truly an honor.
In a delightfully immersive convergence of legacy, the work of internationally renowned artist Ann Hamilton—who came to the University of Kansas to be Cynthia’s student— fills the Museum’s Central Court, adjacent to the galleries housing Schira’s textiles. Her installation of lines, scans, and captured gestures helps us all see the Spencer Museum’s galleries and collections anew, with work that reimagines not only the spaces and objects themselves, but also the places they occupy in the artist’s inner life, and perhaps our own. An especially profound legacy that we hold dear at the Spencer has taken on a significant new dimension. In December, 2012, our esteemed colleague Dr. Marilyn Stokstad gifted the Museum with an endowed directorship. This far-reaching endowment aligns the Spencer Museum of Art with such peer institutions as the Princeton University Art Museum and Duke University’s Nasher Museum of Art. The seeds Dr. Stokstad has planted with this gift are beginning to take root this spring, and will continue to reach fruition for years to come. Dr. Stokstad’s scholarship and dedication embody the very meaning of legacy. Over her tenure, she has directly taught thousands of students about art and architecture, reaching countless more through her textbooks. Moreover, her belief in the importance of the university art museum has remained steadfast, unwavering. We honor Dr. Stokstad’s stalwart commitment to bring art to life and life to art with humor, knowledge, and incisive critical inquiry. Her singular vision, dedication, and legacy will continue to enrich the university community well into the future. — Saralyn Reece Hardy

An Errant Line: Ann Hamilton / Cynthia Schira
SMA
March 2–August 11, 2013 Central Court & Adjacent Galleries
For An Errant Line, internationally recognized artists Ann Hamilton and Cynthia Schira have mined the Spencer Museum’s encyclopedic holdings to create new works of art for the Central Court and adjoining galleries. The results reflect their distinctive contemplations of the Museum’s legacy of collection, exhibition, and preservation, as well as the relation of the handmade to a world increasingly structured by digital codes of zeros and ones. The exhibition title is inspired by a weaving technique using a supplementary weft, an element in the development of Schira’s practice that she passed to Hamilton, her student at the University of Kansas in the late 1970s. The technique introduces flexibility and improvisational possibility. For Schira and Hamilton, the technique extends beyond the cloth’s surface to articulate a way of thinking about the relationship of part to whole, field to line, chaos to order. They have chosen to call their path through the collection “an errant line.” Hamilton’s prints fill the Museum’s Central Court with the haunting presence of the Spencer’s 18th-century Italian Presepio figures. In a large adjacent gallery, Schira’s labyrinth of monumental black-and-white textiles draws its imagery from the clothing on the Presepio figures, as well as prints and paintings from the SMA collections. The installations explore and exploit, historically and metaphorically, the reciprocal relationship between weaving and today’s ubiquitous digital encoding of nearly everything. Schira uses abstracted digital elements woven on computer-controlled looms, and Hamilton creates ghostly images of dimensional objects seen through the eyes of an obsolete flatbed scanner. Just as the Jacquard loom, invented in 1800, pointed toward the first mechanical computer, so the modern computer, with its screen acting as a membrane between the user and another realm, points back to the loom, to clothing, to products of thread. Throughout the run of the exhibition, the Spencer’s Bechstein piano— once played by Franz Liszt—will ring with the sound of teacher and student pairs engaged in music lessons.

Conversation XIV: Water March 23–July 28, 2013 20/21 Gallery Conversation Wall
SMA
Water is timeless… or is it? This installation of works from the Spencer’s permanent collection explores contemporary artists’ perspectives on the elixir of life: H20. Many of the works assembled for this installation take an eco-critical approach to the subject matter, exploring pollution and scarcity, whereas others address water less literally and more symbolically, as a cleansing or destructive force. From this selection of 20th- and 21st-century works, a subtle visual dialogue emerges between the Kaw River of Kansas and the Yangtze of China.

Empire of Things
Project Redefine: Phase 3, Opened January, 2013
“I have collected various things on my journeys abroad… samples…that I conserve well with the goal of… being able to present my audience with the things themselves…so that they may themselves judge how that which is said fits with the things, and can acquire a more intimate knowledge of them all.” —Ole Worm, 1588–1655, Danish physician, antiquarian, and collector
From the 15th through 19th centuries, a thriving circuit of global exchange brought amazing objects to prospering Europe, facilitating—through the transport of materials and commodities—a revolutionary quest for knowledge. Europeans sought mastery of the world through exploration of classical antiquity, natural phenomena, and perceived oddities from far off lands. a self-conscious investigation of the Empire of Things explores the relationships collecting impulse without which museums between objects, the people who made could not exist. The lives of objects take on them, and the people who collected, studied, particular relevance in Empire of Things, and displayed them.

The Commons is a partnership between the Biodiversity Institute, the Hall Center for the Humanities, and the Spencer Museum of Art. This January, The Commons integrated an artist residency into its extensive programming. The first artist to participate in the program was Emilio Chapela Pérez, who lives in Mexico City and works internationally. His work addresses how contemporary cultures interact with technology. Recurring themes in his work include communication, interpretation, translation, power structures, and conceptualism, and much of his work constitutes an ongoing attempt to index and archive human activity on the Internet, drawing attention to online behaviors, revealing surprising facets of the collective consciousness. Chapela Pérez made much of his short time on campus, delivering talks, creating and installing a new work in Spooner Hall, and staging an original performance at the Spencer Museum with participation from current KU students.
Artist Residencies Bring International Perspective Also in January, the Spencer Museum of Art and the H&R Block Artspace brought three Asian artists known as the Xijing Men to Lawrence and Kansas City. Their ten-day residency included the creation and installation of a new work called Xijing Men — I Love Xijing, which was on view through April 2 at the H&R Block Artspace, and the first ever Xijing Summit, moderated by Kris Ercums, curator of Asian and global contemporary art. The summit was well attended by University of Kansas students. I Love Xijing—Xijing School received funding from the Richard J. Stern Foundation for the Arts, Kansas City, Missouri, the William T.

Association of Art Museum Directors Visits Spencer Museum On January 28, nearly 200 art museum directors from across the United States, Canada, and Mexico convened in Lawrence for a festive celebration. The extravaganza was part of the Association of Art Museum Directors' Mid-Winter Meeting, held this year in Kansas City. The Spencer co-hosted the meeting with the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art. Upon arriving from Kansas City by bus, the art museum directors were greeted by a rousing fanfare performed by the KU Trumpet Ensemble. Art museum directors gathered in Central Court to experience Mary Sibande's Sophie-Ntombikayise while taking in inspiring opening remarks delivered by Director Saralyn Reece Hardy and Chancellor Bernadette GrayLittle. Doctoral student Zhao Yangmingtian delighted guests with a performance on the Museum’s famed Bechstein piano once used by Franz Liszt. Sporadically throughout the evening, performance artists Mark Southerland, Laura Frank, and Peregrine Honig created live tableaus and played artfully constructed instruments for guests’ enjoyment. Curators and other Museum staff were stationed throughout the galleries to discuss the art on display and to answer questions. The entire four-day meeting culminated in a wellattended panel discussion addressing the subject Thriving Arts, Thriving Cities. Members of the Association of Art Museum Directors accomplished a great deal in their time together, including naming new board members, bringing an official end to Saralyn Reece Hardy’s term as Treasurer of the organization.

Petrovsky flux Continues to Win Accolades The complex organic architecture named “a Petrovsky flux,” which currently occupies the Spencer Museum's island in the virtual environment known as Second Life, features the work of a talented international team including script writer blotto Epsilon and designer Cutea Benelli.
“If you’ve never experienced the wonders of Petrovsky Flux, you really must!” — author Honour McMillan
Steve Goddard, the Spencer’s associate director and senior curator of prints and drawings, leads the Museum’s initiative in Second Life. As described by its creators, "a Petrovsky flux" is a cluster of devices that grow, assembling themselves from modular units, only to blow apart and rebuild themselves. Each time they rebuild differently. The project takes its name in part from a previous project, the "Bogon flux," and in part from the last name of Russian mathematician Ivan Petrovsky. This online environment, made possible by a 2008 grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services, continues to engage visitors and generate favorable reviews. Recently, in a review titled Some Good Things Last in Second Life, Honour McMillan wrote, “No world, physical or virtual, owes it to us to remain unchanged. I suspect, though, that our lack of control over things in real life contributes to our desire for more permanence in the virtual. Having said that, I’m very pleased when I can return again and again to a magical place. If you’ve never experienced the wonders of Petrovsky Flux, you really must!” Past recognition for "a Petrovsky flux" includes a citation in Italian Vogue, and being named a top Second Life destination by Linden Labs. 25
