Full textEste trabalho pretende dar a conhecer a conjuntura na qual o empreendedorismo cultural das coleccionadoras de arte, Isabella Stewart Gardner e Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney, teve lugar. Para tal temos em conta as particularidades que compõem os dois casos que contribuíram para o enriquecimento do panorama cultural estadunidense. Por outro lado, propomos perceber de que modo a atuação de ambas refletia os cânones do coleccionismo e estéticos contemporâneos. Mais ainda, iremos analisar como o facto de se tratar de duas mulheres que coleccionavam arte – sendo esta uma prática relacionada com o capital masculino – constituiu um contributo para a valorização do papel da mulher, em particular na cultura. E uma vez que é nos studioli ou gabinetes de curiosidades que encontramos semelhanças com o espírito do coleccionador estadunidense, nomeadamente no reflexo de uma aspiração expressa através de uma colecção, começamos, no capítulo I, por dar a conhecer diferentes casos de coleccionismo europeu, desde a criação dos studioli aos museus públicos. Os gabinetes de curiosidade, ao representarem um veículo privilegiado para a aquisição de conhecimento, são representativos do desenvolvimento de um modelo cultural desde a esfera privada ao museu público. Deste modo, propomos olhar a evolução deste modelo na Europa e, em contraste, os moldes em que este modelo veio a influenciar o coleccionismo privado nos Estados Unidos da América e como nele se inclui o contributo da mulher. Assim, e tendo em conta o contexto cultural e social analisado anteriormente, propomos olhar nos capítulos II e III o percurso das coleccionadoras e mecenas das artes Isabella Stewart Gardner e Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney. Em Gardner focamos a sua dedicação ao conhecimento do mundo da arte, e na formação de uma colecção privada que deu origem a museu público. Destacamos o seu papel no campo do empreendedorismo cultural, o qual estava conotado com uma atividade masculina. A sua relação com a arte e os artistas foi também uma forma de valorizar o papel da mulher, e de quem destacamos John Singer Sargent. O pintor representa a tradição artística europeia, contudo contribuiu para a criação de uma identidade e de uma imagem da elite americana, e em particular da figura feminina. Em Whitney temos em conta o seu background cultural, numa família que contribuiu para a difusão de um estilo de vida sustentado nos costumes europeus dentro da genteel tradition. Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney, conforme veremos, viria a usufruir do gosto pela arte, contudo, vocacionado para a arte americana do seu tempo. Além de coleccionadora e artista, a sua acção passou pela criação de espaços expositivos e ateliers e pela aquisição de obras de arte que constituíram o acervo pessoal da mecenas. O espólio deu origem ao Whitney Museum of American Art, reclamando o talento e a visão artística americana, tendo contribuído para a afirmação de uma identidade artística nacional.

Full textSingle donor museums like the Isabella Stewart Gardner in Boston, the McNay Museum of Art in San Antonio, the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis and The Barnes Foundation in Merion and Philadelphia, provide an intimate experience for their visitors, donors, supporters and staff members. They must compete with larger, more encyclopedic museums, with larger budgets and more resources. Like all museums, they hold art in the public trust and are responsible to the public. Contemporary museology asks not only that all museums protect their collections and educate the public, but that they also engage with their communities. None of the single donors highlighted had to donate their art, their money or their homes, but all chose to. Each museum chose to expand or relocate in response to difficult problems, whether financial, logistical (need for more space) or legal. Each engages new publics in creative ways. Certain predictable problems arose for each and they creatively resolved (and continue to resolve) those problems. Lessons learned from the experience of four single donor museums may suggest new thinking for those anticipating similar expansions or moves.

Bernard Berenson(1865-1959), a legendary American connoisseur, has multiple identities as an art historian, art critic as well as art consultant. In this study, I utilized historical and content research to observe the impact of American’s Gilded era on the scholars and to analyze how American’s understanding of Renaissance art was remodeled by collection identification criteria that Berenson respected. Subsequently, this study investigated the background of and reasons for establishing the Isabella Gardner Museum. Through listing the museum collection acquired mainly under the advice of Berenson, this study analyzed the museum’s paintings and the details on how they were purchased. In addition, the correspondence between Berenson and Madam Gardner was arranged and presented to elucidate the shifts of dominance between the art expert and collector during the purchasing process. Besides, from his diaries and related communication records, we studied the art giant’s mental changes and morale issues in the field of art trades, scrutinized his life, rich but confused, and revalued it from every angles. Eventually, we make the conclusion that the surroundings, adequate and rich, provided the man with resources and funds. However, it also threw Bernard Berenson into the dilemma of balancing the credit and prestige as a scholar and connoisseur as well as the benefit from his work as an art consultant.

Museum resembles organic entity in the natural world and adjusts its functions according to the changing environment. The notion of “museum revitalization” suggests that museums expand utilization of their collection, research and relevant services, and serve as facilitator of a better cultural life for people; what justifies museums as cultural and social institutions lies above. This study departs from exploring how contemporary museums make good use of their resources in the service of bringing new perspectives to their audience, thus, revitalizing the content a museum has to offer. This study commences with the definition of the notion of revitalization, and explores the background of museum revitalization. Continually, the study examines the establishment and changing process of the case of the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston, United States, founded in 1903. Furthermore, the study focuses on the intervention of contemporary art in traditional museums as a revitalization strategy, investigating the impact and effect of Gardner Museum’s long-standing “Artist-In-Residence Program” that initiated in 1992, especially in prompting the museum to reflect the contemporary society, to encourage diversified interpretation, and to increase utilization. In analyzing the program, semistructured interviews, observations, and information gathered from documents are utilized as methods of data collecting. The study selects three case studies of artist-residency from the program, and investigates how the untervention of contemporary art influences museum practice, and gradually contributes to the revitalization of the museum. Three findings are drawn from the study: 1) The intervention of contemporary art builds connection between the past and present; artist’s interpretation provides audience a brand new and diversified point of view, while serving the function of aiding audience in understanding and appreciating the content of the museum, guiding and encouraging the thinking and interaction process, stimulating the meaning-making activities in the museum. 2) Artists taking advantage of museum resources transform the content of the museum into living subjects and sources of inspiration, and keep the production of creative outcomes going, while highlighting the social utility of museums to museum managers. 3) Contemporary art enables museums to ponder upon their missions and core values, urging museums to elevate their functions and to renew themselves as the society moves on.
