Elvert Barnes FEBRUARY 2014 BLACK HISTORY MONTH Project

In 2015, the Walker celebrates the 75th anniversary of its founding as a public art center dedicated to presenting and collecting the art of our times. Curated by the Walker’s executive director Olga Viso and guest curator Joan Rothfuss, the exhibition looks at 75 years of collecting at the Walker—a history distinguished not only by bold and often risk-taking choices but also acquisitions that have consistently breached the boundaries of media or disciplines.

 

Art at the Center: 75 Years of Walker Collections is on view from October 16, 2014 to September 11, 2016 in Galleries 4, 5, 6.

 

Curators: Olga Viso and Joan Rothfuss, with Andrew Blauvelt, Jill Vuchetich, and Mia Lopez

10/150: Margaret Whittemore, Building at Fort Leavenworth, used as First Territorial Capital, Kansas Territory was opened to settlement on May 30, 1854, by an act of Congress which located the seat of government temporarily at Fort Leavenworth, and provided that the buildings of the fort should be occupied for the public offices. For his executive office, Andrew H. Reeder had a room in the old stone building at the northwest corner of the plaza, known and occupied as the quarter-master’s department. This was an L-shaped one story building, which was torn down in 1833 to make room for the edifice known as Pope Hall. The accommodations at Fort Leavenworth proved unsuitable for the executive offices, and on November 24, the governor removed to Shawnee Mission. 63.93
