DALLAS MUSEUM OF ART
ANNUAL REPORT
2021–2022
At the conclusion of each fiscal year, we are given the opportunity to pause and reflect on our wins and our losses, our triumphs and our shortcomings, and, most importantly, on what we must champion and what we must change to best serve our community.

The DMA’s global collection grew in size by 322 works this year, all of which are sure to provoke lively discussion and deep reflection among Museum visitors and scholars alike. Ranging in medium from textiles to photography and in geography from Mexico to Sudan, these newly acquired works embody the DMA’s pursuit of excellence in collecting, in presenting works of art across cultures and time, and in being a driving force in contemporary art. Highlights include the Mahdi tunic (at left), which serves as a visual reflection of the lifestyle of Dervish religious ascetics in the late 19th century; British-Mexican Surrealist Leonora Carrington’s Under the Compass Rose (below, bottom), a haunting confluence of mysticism and portraiture; and Calida Rawles’s In His Image (below, top), a hyper-realistic portrait of North Texas artist Diedrick Brackens floating in a pool of gleaming blue water that, all at once, explores themes of intimacy, identity, and healing.

In 2022 the Dallas Museum of Art continued to place an emphasis on collecting and exhibiting works of art that reflect the diverse makeup of our region. The Museum had the unique opportunity to commission an original mural from Latinx artist Guadalupe Rosales for the installation Drifting on a Memory. Rosales collaborated with Dallas-based lowrider artist Lokey Calderon to create an immersive work in the DMA’s Concourse that nods to lowrider culture and uses sound to replicate the aural experience of cruising in East LA. The DFW community responded to this installation with resounding support. Over 3,000 members of the community joined together to immerse themselves in lowrider culture and local Latinx talent at a “Lowrider Celebration” event in honor of Drifting on a Memory. The 2022 fiscal year also saw the continuation of the first-ever museum retrospective for the noted North Texas sculptor Octavio Medellín. Featuring approximately 60 works, Octavio Medellín: Spirit and Form explores the evolution of the artist’s sculptural practice, his public art, and his influence on generations of students as an instructor at the school of the Dallas Museum of Fine Arts and as founder of the Creative Arts Center of Dallas. These exhibitions, as well as Spirit Lodge: Mississippian Art from Spiro, Rooted, Bamana Mud Cloth: From Mali to the World, and Bosco Sodi: La fuerza del destino, demonstrate the Museum’s commitment to celebrate diverse communities and minority artists to ensure all feel a sense of welcome at the DMA.
322
NEW WORKS FROM ACROSS CULTURES AND TIME WERE ACQUIRED
Diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) continue to be a priority for the DMA. In April 2021, the Museum was awarded a Ford Foundation grant. This funding, available through March 2023, is to be used to create a more inclusive employee experience, provide internal education for a shared understanding of DEI, build trust, diversify candidate pipelines, and improve internal communications related to diversity, equity, and inclusion.
This pivotal year saw the appointment of four new members of the Director’s Team. In December 2021, Sally Pietsch assumed the position of Chief Financial Officer, bringing more than 15 years of experience in financial oversight at museums to the DMA. In January 2022, Brad Pritchett, a results-oriented nonprofit professional, joined the DMA as the new Chief Marketing and Communications Officer. Stacey Lizotte, who served the DMA as the League Director of Adult Programs for 18 years, was named The Allen and Kelli Questrom Center for Creative Connections Education Director in June 2022. Sara Ousby became the Museum’s first Director of Strategic Initiatives in May 2022; this new leadership role was created to align goals and priorities to drive the Museum’s strategic plan. These forward-thinking leaders have played a key role in cultivating the successes of this fiscal year and catalyzing change for years to come.

CONNECTION AND COLLABORATION
Programming is the key to reaching each and every corner of our community. We have been delighted to welcome not only North Texans but people from across the globe to take part in the full breadth of the Museum’s offerings following years of COVID-19 lockdowns and restrictions. In total, over 15,000 tickets were sold or reserved throughout the fiscal year, and over 100,000 visitors of all ages and backgrounds enjoyed Museum programming. In this fiscal year alone, 360 artists, 80 speakers, and countless community partners collaborated with the Museum to execute a robust calendar of events. Our annual Late Night: Pride Block Party included an increase in partnerships, with 28 LGBTQ+ artists and organizations such as Arttitude, Flexible Gray Theater, United Black Ellument, and Dallas Southern Pride participating. This collaboration with the wider Dallas Arts District resulted in almost 2,000 on-site Museum visitors, and many more accessed the outdoor events throughout the Arts District. During the year, the School Programs team presented over 1,000 programs to over 40,000 students and teachers across North Texas. New initiatives included creating customized art kits for two DISD elementary school campuses, filming a behind-the-scenes Conservation for Kids video, producing and distributing a free art poster highlighting the work of African American artist Henry Ossawa Tanner, and launching four new K–6 Go van Gogh® outreach lessons. In spring 2022, the Family, Youth, and School Programs team piloted a new approach to planning Family Festivals. This created space for more voices and perspectives in the brainstorming, planning, and execution of a community-centered festival. Partners from First3Years, Trust for Public Land, the Dallas Public Library, Southern Sector Rising, Partner Resource Network, and Forward Dallas ran activities and worked with our staff to create a welcoming, inclusive, and creative space at the DMA. More than 2,700 visitors attended the festival and enjoyed performances, gallery tours, artist demonstrations, yoga, and art making. Such programs opened the door for collaboration with notable institutions such as Artstillery, the Japan-America Society, and the International Rescue Committee. They also demonstrated the transformative power of programming and its ability to enhance the works on view and amplify both the Museum’s mission and the unique voices of marginalized and underserved communities. DMA staff did not take the challenge of returning to a full programming slate lightly. Instead, they barreled forward with the inclusion of a brand-new program and the addition of new resources to the Museum’s accessibility toolbox. The Adult Programs and Community Engagement teams worked together to launch Creative Care: Art Therapy, a specialized program that focuses on addressing emotional well-being through customized experiences with art. Led by an art therapist and DMA educators, this program explores and affirms personal narratives, using the Museum’s collection and exhibitions as inspiration for in-gallery conversations, hands-on art-making projects, individual reflection, and collective empowerment. In the endeavor to create a more accessible and inclusive museum for all, the DMA created large-print and Braille booklets for the Rooted exhibition, introduced de-escalation resources for summer camps and other classes based on trauma-informed practices, and, for the first time, used sensory bins for community programs. We are proud to facilitate these programs and resources in order to bring the love of art to our visitors of all needs and abilities.

The 2022 fiscal year was a year of great accomplishment and celebrated resilience. In our first whole year of programming without closure since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the DMA returned to full operational capacity with our staff still intact. A total of 356,154 visitors took advantage of the Museum’s free admission, a 138% increase over the previous fiscal year, and 72,333 of them also purchased a ticket to see a special exhibition. Of these exhibitions, visitors were most dazzled by Cartier and Islamic Art: In Search of Modernity, which explored the Islamic inspirations behind the sparkling jewels of the genius Maison Cartier and saw almost 65,000 visitors in its four-month run at the Museum. As this blockbuster exhibition’s only North American venue, the DMA received visitors from all over Texas, across the nation, and abroad. Cartier and Islamic Art was also the focus of great critical acclaim—with Vogue calling it “a hit exhibition” and the Wall Street Journal hailing it as “a resplendent show”—as well as significant media attention from Forbes, Elle, Vanity Fair, and Harper’s Bazaar. In addition to the breathtaking Cartier and Islamic Art, the DMA was honored to host the world premiere of Van Gogh and the Olive Groves, the first exhibition dedicated to the legendary artist’s spellbinding olive grove series. This exhibition captivated DMA audiences by tracing Van Gogh’s shifting motivations and stylistic approaches, all through the expressive powers of color and line that the artist employed throughout his career and that are universally familiar to audiences of all backgrounds. Almost 50,000 visitors, some from as far away as Singapore, engaged in up-close-and-personal encounters with Van Gogh’s olive grove paintings.

CHALLENGES
While this year brought an abundance of new opportunities and achievements, our institution also faced tragedy and unprecedented challenges. Fiscal year 2022 saw an unprecedented violation that resulted in damage to art. On June 1, 2022, after Museum hours, an individual forcibly entered the Dallas Museum of Art. Fortunately, no parties were harmed, and Dallas Police took the individual into custody at the scene. The damaged works of art are currently in the care of our expert Conservation team for ongoing assessment and potential repair. In response to this incident, we immediately implemented changes and have hired a third-party security consultant to ensure our security measures exceed best practice standards, taking DMA procedures and necessary updates to our facilities into account. As a City-owned building, we continue to work in partnership with the City of Dallas to assess our current systems and facilities and create a plan for the future of the Museum. While this incident is an indisputable tragedy, we are forever grateful for the strong, collaborative leadership of our Board of Trustees and our incredible staff, who banded together to resolve this issue as efficiently and thoroughly as possible. Above all, we are thankful for the abundance of
community members, colleagues, peers, fellow museums, and DMA supporters here in Dallas and from around the world who reached out to express their support in the wake of this tragic event. From the Dallas Arts District to the American Alliance of Museums and the Association of Art Museum Directors, this outpouring of support and solidarity will be remembered for years to come.
Ending the fiscal year on a resoundingly high note, the DMA launched an updated brand platform and voice in June 2022, inviting visitors to “imagine their journey” during their visit to the Museum. This brand refresh is so much more than words and colors—it’s a revitalization of our core ethos, enlarging our commitment to placing art at the center and equity at the core from which all activities radiate. Each visitor enters the DMA with their own unique experiences, perspectives, and intentions for their visit, contributing to the story of the Museum and its collection, and paving the path for its future. At its heart, the DMA is a collage of different cultures, ideas, and perspectives, and we look forward to using this brand refresh as a launching point to work with and amplify community voices. To kick off the 2023 fiscal year, our “brand anthem” premiered on DMA social media channels on July 1 and on WFAA on July 5. This 60-second commercial, which invites visitors to discover their own inspiration within the walls of the Museum, entering curious and leaving changed, reached over 2,300,000 viewers in just its first two weeks and continued to air on WFAA through the end of September 2022. We also kicked off the fiscal year by partnering with WFAA to take over Good Morning Texas, Texas’s premier live talk show. Good Morning Texas packed up their studio and set up shop in the Center for Creative Connections (C3). This live broadcast, which reached over 12,000 viewers, was dedicated exclusively to the DMA and all that we have to offer. We look forward to building upon this initial success and will continue to invite our partners, patrons, and community to imagine their journey with the DMA as we work to strengthen our position as an institution designed for the future.
DEFINING DIRECTION
IN MEMORIAM
It is with deep regret and profound sadness that we report the passing of the following trustees (current and former) and DMA Circle members in fiscal year 2022. Each of these individuals demonstrated a deep commitment to the arts and to transforming the DMA into the strong and innovative institution it is today. Their legacies will live on not only through their contributions to the Museum but through their impact on the Dallas arts community as a whole.
