Now on view:
Out of the Box: An Outdoor Juried Sculpture Exhibition features ten works of contemporary sculpture to represent ten years of service to Auburn University and community. The artists’ work
will be displayed on the museum grounds in a yearlong observance of the anniversary until October 3, 2014. More than 120 submissions from across the United States were submitted and selected by Carol Mickett and Robert Stackhouse.
JCSM@10: A Decade of Collecting is a broad selection of the distinctive art acquired by the museum between 2003 and today. Including works by Old Masters and Impressionists; artists of local
and international renown; contemporary painters, photographers, potters, and sculptors; self-taught and academically trained—our collection continues to expand, enabling us each year to educate and more fully relate the story of art. The exhibitionJCSM@10
serves not only to illustrate the coming of age of an important regional asset, it salutes the benevolent spirit of a caring community that gave it birth and nurtured JCSM to this milestone.
Breath of Identity, organized for JCSM, addresses the concept of artistic collaboration and the nature of a melded identity that is inherent in the work of Carol Mickett and Robert Stackhouse.
Featuring a series of large paintings with related drawings, prototypes and engineering studies for recent sculpture projects, and sequential photographs of the Hunter Museum installation, the exhibition offers insight into Mickett and Stackhouse’s shared creative
process.
The 2014 1072 Society Exhibition features three-dimensional works in a range of media, historical periods, and styles. All of the sculptures in the exhibition were chosen for consideration
because of the new and important dimensions they would bring to the museum’s expanding art collection.
Assembled from objects in the museum’s permanent collection, Ganando La Vida (Making a Living: Images of Labor in Modern Mexican Art) presents prints, paintings, and drawings dealing broadly
with the theme of labor.
