The Cummer Museum of Art
& Gardens is excited to announce the acquisition of “Magnetic Fields,”
a new work of art by abstract artist Mildred Thompson (1936-2003), born in
Jacksonville, Florida. The acquisition
was made possible through the generous support the Rushton William Hays
Revocable Trust and the Morton R. Hirschberg Bequest.
“Magnetic Fields” (1991), part of a series by the same name, shows a rich
yellow ground with arcs and lines drawn in kinetic expression with vibrant
reds, oranges and blues in thick impasto. The upper portion of the painting shows
concentric arcs of red around an implied midpoint, with darts of blue and
orange shooting off in many directions, suggesting centripetal and centrifugal
forces. Inspired by the scientific
principles governing magnetism, “Magnetic Fields” connects the scientific with
the metaphysical. Thompson’s interests
were broad and included the study of quantum physics, cosmology, and theosophy.
The piece emanates a pulsing, frenetic
energy that is unique to her painting style, a visual language she developed to
interpret phenomena one experiences, but cannot see.
Mildred Thompson was born in Jacksonville, Florida, in 1936. She graduated from Howard University in 1957
with a Bachelor of Art degree. While at
Howard, she studied under James Porter, a pioneering African-American art
historian. She attended the Skowhegan
School of Painting and Sculpture in 1956, earned a Max Beckmann Scholarship to
study at the Brooklyn Museum School from 1957 to 1958, attended the Art Academy
of Hamburg from 1958 to 1961, participated in a residency at Castle
Roccassinibaldi, Italy in 1959, and in 1961 and 1962 was selected for the
prestigious MacDowell Colony residency in New Hampshire. Though the Museum of Modern Art and the
Brooklyn Museum each purchased works from Thompson in the early 1960s, she
spent the majority of the 1960s and ‘70s in Germany, in response to racial and
gender discrimination in the United States. During this time abroad, she
taught, traveled, and exhibited her art across Europe, creating a vast body of
work in printmaking, painting, and sculpture.
In the early 1970s, Thompson, influenced by the abstract paintings of the early
modernists such as Wassily Kandinsky, consciously turned away from the creation
of representational imagery to fully focus her craft on the abstract. She was
among the second generation of Abstract Expressionists, and one of the few
women of color in that group. In lieu of falling into the societal trap of
ever-changing art trends and politically-driven content, Thompson artistically
interpreted varied scientific and musical theories that are not visible to the
naked eye.

The Cummer Museum of Art & Gardens today
announced the launch of the Family 2 Family Membership Match promotion. For every $100 donated to the Museum as part
of a membership purchase or upgrade through September 30, the Museum will give
a Museum membership to the family of a current fourth-grade Duval County Public
Schools (DCPS) student.
The promotion builds upon the Museum’s long-standing partnership with DCPS. During the 2018-2019 school year, thousands of
DCPS students visited the Museum or participated in art education experiences
through outreach programs, including more than 800 fourth-grade students who
were provided a free tour of the Augusta Savage: Renaissance Woman
exhibition.
The Museum’s goal for the Family 2 Family promotion is to secure 5,500
memberships to provide all current fourth-grade students with a free
Family-level membership. Adam Levine,
the Cummer Museum’s George W. and Kathleen I. Gibbs Director & Chief Executive Officer,
sees the promotion as a way to ensure these students can come back to the Museum
with their families without restriction, whether to experience a special
exhibition or enjoy playing in the reconstructed gardens.
“Visiting art museums at a young age is
an important and valuable educational experience, but the impact of art museums
on learning and development increases substantially when people come back,”
said Levine. “When you remove barriers to entry, people
visit museums. Family 2 Family is about
this community coming together to provide access to the highest quality arts,
gardens and programming. I can think of
no fuller embodiment of Ninah Cummer’s vision to create ‘a center of beauty and
culture for all of Jacksonville.’”
The Museum will work with DCPS to distribute vouchers for free Museum
memberships to students and their families during the 2019-2020 school year. “We are
so thankful to community partners like the Cummer Museum of Art & Gardens
that play such a vital role in enriching the educational and cultural
experiences of our students,” said Dr. Diana Greene, superintendent of
Duval County Public Schools. “Through the Cummer’s Family 2 Family
promotion, learning in art, history, and social studies will be brought to life
for our students and their families as they enjoy even greater access to the
museum.”
Family-level memberships cost $100 and include free admission for a year for
two adults and children or grandchildren under the age of 18. Additional benefits include exclusive
exhibition openings; special invitations to programs and events; a quarterly
digital newsletter; discount admission for concerts, lectures, garden programs,
art camps and classes; a 10% discount at the Cummer Shop and Cummer Café; free
admission to more than 150 Southeast Reciprocal Museums; reciprocal membership
to over 1,000 institutions through the North American Reciprocal Museums (NARM)
program; and reciprocal membership to nearly 300 gardens through the American
Horticultural Society Reciprocal Program.

If you want to hear some good ole Honkey Tonk, Speak Easy, Cabaret, Swing music;
then you better get over to the Alhambra
Theatre & Dining to experience toe-tapping
sounds of an era gone by. This wonderful
show will remind you of the Roaring 20’s, Jive Talkin' and other LIVE music that is
better than any Big Band yesterday or today.
Ain't Misbehavin’, is
now playing at the Alhambra and is a
tribute to the black musicians of the 1920s and 1930s who were part of the
Harlem Renaissance, an era of growing creativity, cultural awareness, and
ethnic pride, and takes its title from the 1929 Thomas "Fats"
Waller song, "Ain't Misbehavin'".
Dynamic scenery, costumes and dancing compliment the magnificent voices that
pump out song-after-song with no resting until the intermission before the second
act. The Live Band comprised of: Anthony Felton (Conductor/Piano man), Sean Tills (Bass), Greg Hersey (Drums); Carson
Smisek (Trumpet); Alex Hernandez
(Reeds) and Diego A. Herrada (Trombone),
continually accompanied the five actors/singers/dancers/stage perfectionists.
The Five Actors, who played separate personalities, entertained effortlessly during
the entire performance. Tarra Conner

(Charlene/Amitria), Christopher G. Patterson* (Andre/Christopher) and E. Mani

The meal that Chef DeJuan Roy and his staff prepared, is scrumdiddlyumptious. The Spinach Salad, and Atlas Mountain Soup is
very tasty. This writer had the pleasure
of enjoying the Fried Flounder while our tablemates said that the Pork Ribeye

choice was the Sweet Potato Cheesecake. All
was yummy and, as always, the portions are quite adequate.
