GWATHMEY SIEGEL: Inspiration and TransformationSpecial Preview at Premiere Party: Friday June 19 8-12 pm Architects will be presentMember Preview: Monday, June 22 6-7 pm Exhibition introduction by exhibition curator, Douglas Sprunt and museum director, Deborah Velders Public Opening: Monday, June 22 7-9 pm Inspiration and Transformation is the first museum exhibition devoted to the work of American architectural firm Gwathmey Siegel and Associates Architects (NYC). The firm designed the Cameron Art Museum, as well as many other notable museums, residences and corporate offices. This exhibition addresses eight Gwathmey Siegel projects, focusing primarily on five that represent major transitions in their forty-five year practice. The exhibition demonstrates the broader cultural currents in American modernist art and architecture, as well as the more specific inspiration of art associated with each of these commissions. Exhibition curator Douglas Sprunt focuses on five "transitional and transformative" projects in this exhibition, each of which marks a transition in the work of Gwathmey Siegel as seen in projects spanning more than forty years. The exhibition's focus upon these transformative and transitional projects demonstrates the broader cultural currents in American modernist art and architecture, as well as the more specific inspiration derived from works of art in these commissions.
This exhibition is curated by Adjunct Curator of Architecture and Design, Doug Sprunt. |

This project was supported by the North Carolina Arts Council with funding from the state of North Carolina and the National Endowment for the Arts, which believes that a great nation deserves great art.
