SUMMARY:Material Muses: Medieval Devotional Culture and its Afterlives
DESCRIPTION:The Middle Ages is often thought of as a period of heightened religious devotion\, especially in the Catholic regions of Western Europe. Looking to the Joan of Arc Chapel at the heart of Marquette’s campus and pulling from the collections of the Haggerty Museum of Art and the University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee\, Material Muses: Medieval Devotional Culture and its Afterlives considers how artists since the end of the Middle Ages have looked back toward art from this period as inspiration for creating “authentic” devotional objects into the present day. Material Muses explores the allure of medieval material religion as it converses with and energizes post-medieval religious narratives. \nMaterial Muses was curated by Abby R. Armstrong Check\, Claire Kilgore and Tania Kolarik\, PhD candidates in the Department of Art History at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. \nImage: Eduardo Paolozzi\, British\, 1924 – 2005\, Jesus Colour by Numbers\, 1970\, Photolithograph\, 15 x 10 inches\, 81.38.37.33\, Gift of Mr. Steven D.

SUMMARY:Affirmation/Transformation: Fandom Created
DESCRIPTION:Cheeseheads\, Swifties\, Beatlemaniacs\, Trekkies\, Whovians\, Potterheads\, Beyhive\, the Cenation\, ARMY. People are fans of all sorts of things. But what makes someone a fan? Is there a difference between enjoying something and being a fan of that thing? \nAffirmation/Transformation considers “creation” as the line between casual enjoyment and fandom. Fans are not passive; fans create. Using pieces from the Haggerty Museum of Art’s permanent collection\, Affirmation/Transformation looks at the types of things that fans are inspired to create and asks the viewer whether these fan creations are affirmational or transformational—that is\, do they affirm the fan object as it is\, or transform it into something new? Do fan creations uphold the canon of the original content\, or do they take only what they need and leave the rest behind? Is it possible that all fan creations hold both at the same time? \nThis exhibition serves as a foundational component for the dissertation of Kate Rose\, English Literature PhD Candidate at Marquette University. The pieces included in Affirmation/Transformation are available to online fan communities and fans are invited to use them as inspiration in their own affirmational or transformational works. Many of these works will be on display as a part of the exhibition on view at the Haggerty Museum of Art. Through the collection and display of these works\, as well as through future interviews with fan creators\, this dissertation questions the arbitrary boundary that academics have created between affirmational and transformational fandom and compares academic treatment of fan activities against the ways that these same activities are treated in fan communities. \nFor more information\, or to participate in the Affirmation/Transformation Fandom Event\, please visit https://epublications.marquette.edu/fandom/Affirmationtransformation/ \nImage: Mark Heresy\, American\, b. 1965\, Will to Power\, 1992\, Ink on paper\, 28 x 22 inches\, 2000.11.5\, Gift of Peter Norton\, Collection of the Haggerty Museum of Art\, Marquette University

SUMMARY:The Big 4-0: New Views of the Collection
DESCRIPTION:The Haggerty Museum of Art at Marquette University presents an exhibition in celebration of its 40th anniversary. Curated by Dr. Kirk Nickel\, Marc and Lillian Rojtman Curator of European Art\, the show comprises a two-part installation of the exhibition galleries\, in fall 2024 and spring 2025\, and features well over 100 works of art from the museum’s collections. \nRanging widely within time periods\, geographies\, and artists’ careers\, the exhibition highlights major works in the Haggerty’s collection\, organized into six curated galleries each semester. These distinct but conceptually linked spaces reflect the museum’s enduring commitment to the work of modern and contemporary artists\, while also featuring a select group of Renaissance and Baroque artworks. The exhibition draws particular attention to the ideas and impulses that have fueled artists through the recent century\, including novel approaches to modern materials + processes\, political satire\, kinetic and op art\, migration\, photography’s relationship to truth\, mail art\, and the challenge of representing life after war. Artworks by Mark Bradford\, María Magdalena Campos-Pons\, Enrique Chagoya\, LaToya Ruby Frazier\, Jeffrey Gibson\, Sam Gilliam\, Philip Guston\, Keith Haring\, Wifredo Lam\, Elizabeth Murray\, Diego Rivera\, and Richard Serra will appear in the opening installation. Many of the works on view have benefitted from new research and conservation efforts\, shedding additional light on their fabrication and display histories\, and in some cases\, the identity of their maker. \nAt its opening in 1984\, the Haggerty Museum of Art was envisioned both as a repository for Marquette’s collection of fine art and as a center for learning through the visual arts in a way that emphasized necessary connections to other disciplines in the humanities and sciences. Four decades later\, the museum reaffirms that commitment to interdisciplinary connection. The Haggerty’s broad and varied collection is the product of passionate art collectors and supporters in the Milwaukee area and beyond\, to whom we are exceedingly grateful. Their gifts to the museum allow us to present the brilliant and inspiring work of artists who speak boldly to their time and place\, and to generations to come. \nIn conjunction with the exhibition\, the museum will host a slate of curator-led gallery talks and a lecture series with invited specialists to address works on view in the exhibition. \nSupport for this exhibition is generously provided by the Emmett J. Doerr Endowment Fund and in part by a grant from the Wisconsin Arts Board with funds from the State of Wisconsin and the National Endowment for the Arts. \nImage: Tim Rollins and K.O.S.
