GALA COMMITTEE

The great masters of Modern art, including Paul Klee and Wassily Kandinsky, were inspired by the calligraphic ornamentation of the Middle East, patterns that influenced their evolving abstract works. Whether combined, duplicated, interlaced, or arranged in intricate combinations, patterns are at the heart of Islamic art. These abstract designs not only adorn the surfaces of Qatari architecture but function as the major decorative elements in objects and books that are essential to that rich culture. One can trace the subtle impact of the arabesque, the source of these beautiful and highly complex forms, in the evolution of Modern art, notably in the works of Henri Matisse, Pablo Picasso, Klee, and Kandinsky, artists who figure prominently in The Phillips Collection. Arabesque was a vehicle for these artists to move away from representation toward abstraction.

While geometric patterns can be aesthetically pleasing and have symbolic resonance, geometry, patterns, seriation, and repetition are fundamental to mathematics and science. Using the Phillips’s arts-integration teaching framework, we help educators more effectively teach math and science through thinking and learning with art. Our award-winning educational programs for audiences of all ages align with Qatar’s commitment to excellence and innovation in the arts and education. The Phillips Collection pays homage to these connections and gladly celebrates artistic exchange and cultural diplomacy between the State of Qatar and the United States.

ART LINKS TO LIFE: SUPPORTING ARTS EDUCATION

The Annual Gala and Contemporaries Bash raise critical resources for the museum’s award-winning education programs that inspire creativity, foster a greater understanding of our world, and provide lifelong learning experiences for art-lovers of all ages in the Washington, DC, community and across the country.

Arts Integration with Prism.K12The Phillips Collection pushes the boundaries of K–12 education with the development of Prism.K12, a set of six strategies that help teachers create rigorous arts-integrated lessons and curricula. The result of more than a decade of the Phillips’s work in the field of K-12 arts-integrated teaching and learning, Prism.K12 is central to the Phillips’s pursuit of K-12 education reform and its mission as a 21st-century museum. The museum’s Education Department has researched and produced award-winning arts-integrated teacher resources, engaged in local school partnerships, and led national K-12 initiatives.

Connecting Art and WellnessThe relationship between art, health, and well-being resonates deeply with the museum because founder Duncan Phillips possessed a keen understanding of the healing power of art. The Phillips’s innovative contemplation audio tour—which guides visitors in slow looking and sensing in the galleries—and Creative Aging program—in partnership with Iona Senior Services’ art therapy program—are examples of the Phillips’s commitment to connecting art and wellness.

Enhancing the Museum ExperienceThe Phillips engages visitors through talks, inquiry-based tours, and lectures, as well as interdisciplinary experiments in music, dance, and theater. The museum’s popular Phillips after 5 monthly afterhours events and annual family festival feature a lively mix of art and entertainment. Interactive stations in the galleries offer visitors opportunities to pause and think about the themes in the special exhibitions.

Proceeds from the Annual Gala support these efforts.
