Eskenazi Museum of Art, Executive Director
1 day ago
Eskenazi Museum of Art, Executive Director Indiana University (IU), a world-class public research University in Bloomington, Indiana, seeks the Wilma E. Kelley Director of the Sidney and Lois Eskenazi Museum of Art . Following a $30-million renovation in its landmark I.M. Pei building, the Eskenazi Museum of Art has completed a period of significant growth and transformation. The next Director will further leverage the Museum's expansive, encyclopedic collection, progressive educational initiatives, and state-of-the-art facilities to activate enhanced programming and engagement in a dynamic learning environment for IU students and faculty, scholars and researchers, the community-at-large, and visitors from across the nation and world.
ABOUT THE ESKENAZI MUSEUM OF ART
The Eskenazi Museum of Art, established in 1941, began as a university art collection envisioned by IU's legendary president Herman B Wells and then-head of the art department Henry Radford Hope. After displaying collections in the Fine Arts building for more than twenty years, the iconic I.M. Pei-designed building opened its doors to the public in 1982 and has grown in its stature and prestige as a preeminent teaching museum on the Indiana University campus. The Museum's internationally acclaimed collection includes more than 47,000 objects representing nearly every art-producing culture throughout history and from around the world. The museum is a pioneer in the field of provenance study, generating ambitious scholarly exhibitions and publications, and advancing noteworthy research initiatives.
Having completed a $30-million renovation in 2019, funded by a $15-million gift from philanthropists Sidney and Lois Eskenazi, and an additional $15 million from the University, the Eskenazi Museum of Art is an architectural landmark on campus. Its dynamic learning spaces, totaling 112,000 square feet, house one of the most expansive university museum collections in the United States. Embedded among the exhibition galleries, the Museum features dedicated study centers in the areas of Conservation, Curatorial Studies, Education, and Prints, Drawings, and Photographs.
On campus, the Eskenazi Museum of Art functions in partnership with other arts-and-culture resources including the recently renovated IU Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology, the Grunwald Gallery in the Eskenazi School of Art, Architecture + Design, and the Kinsey Institute. The Museum, with renewed full accreditation from the American Association of Museums granted in 2023, employs 44 full-time staff members, and its operating budget for the most recent fiscal year was $4.7 million.
THE OPPORTUNITY
Reporting to the Indiana University Provost and Executive Vice President, the Director will lead the Eskenazi Museum of Art's research, teaching, and service mission. They will be actively engaged with the academic community and university leadership to meet the goals of IU's 2030 Strategic Plan. They will be instrumental in expanding financial support and fundraising potential for the Museum, along with developing productive partnerships with campus, community, scholarly groups, and related interests.
Ideally, the new Director will approach this opportunity with a spirit of inventiveness and innovative experimentation, as well as a respect for tradition. They will represent and articulate a compelling, future-forward vision for the Museum throughout the academic community and greater region, while also serving as an advocate and mentor for the staff, aspiring professionals, and students.
