Art Chats: Neapolitan Presepio
Since 1957, Carnegie Museum of Art has marked the holiday season with the Neapolitan presepio. A centuries-old tradition in Naples and southern Italy, the presepio is an elaborate nativity scene recreated with miniature figures arranged in a detailed panorama of 18th-century life in Naples. Handmade by artists in the Royal Court of Naples between 1700 and 1830, the presepio includes superbly modeled humans, animals, angelic figures, and architectural elements.
This season encounter the Neapolitan presepio in Carnegie Museum of Art’s Scaife galleries. The cherished fixture will be exhibited in proximity to paintings and sculptures in the collection, contextualizing the artwork. Sharing a gallery with Pre-Raphaelite masterpieces such as The Nativity and The King and the Shepherd (1888) by Sir Edward Coley Burne-Jones, visitors will be able to enjoy and reflect on the presepio in an inspiring and new context.

Drop in and meet a docent for an Art Chat tour of the presepio and experience the nativity through the eyes of Neapolitan artisans and collectors.
Learn more about the presepio, which will be on view from November 19 until January 8, 2023, at cmoa.org/exhibition/neapolitan-presepio-2022
Art Chats are on a drop-in basis and will take place from November 19, 2022, until January 8, 2023, free with museum admission. Thursday: 6–7:30 p.m.; Saturday: 10:30 a.m.–noon; and Sunday: 1–2:30 p.m.
Carnegie Trees
The annual installation of the Carnegie Trees is considered by many the start of the holiday season. This year, see the Hall of Architecture filled with towering Fraser Fir trees, each lit to perfection and trimmed with festive baubles, gingerbread, glistening snow, and more!

Since 1961, the annual installation and decoration of the Carnegie Trees has been the signature event of the Women’s Committee of Carnegie Museum of Art. Each year, the trees are decorated with ornaments handmade by the committee, celebrating a different theme ranging from Great Cities of History to Beloved Children’s Book Characters. The theme for 2022 is Holiday Splendor.

On view from November 19, 2022, until January 8, 2023.

Is it morning for you yet?, the 58th Carnegie International Opens on September 24, 2022, with a Weekend of Dynamic, Compelling Events

2022 Exhibitions, Announcements, Carnegie International

Carnegie Museum of Art’s internationally renowned exhibition will open with a weekend slate of events featuring artists from around the world, plus a wide range of extended programming that will last throughout the duration of the show

Pittsburgh, PA (September 1, 2022) – Carnegie Museum of Art announces an expansive and cross- disciplinary series of engaging public programs and events to commence the 58th Carnegie International, which opens on Saturday, September 24. The 58th Carnegie International will bring together new commissions, existing works, and projects by established and emerging artists working internationally, domestically, and locally. Organized by Sohrab Mohebbi, the Kathe and Jim Patrinos Curator of the 58th Carnegie International, and associate curator Ryan Inouye with curatorial assistant Talia Heiman, the exhibition traces the geopolitical imprint of the United States since 1945 to situate the “international” within a local context.

On opening weekend, Carnegie Museum of Art welcomes visitors, artists, and colleagues to view the exhibition for the first time and gather for a compelling program of events by participating artists. Audiences will be treated to the first public presentation of a new work by Malcolm Peacock and performances by Ali Eyal and Christian Nyampeta.

From October 2022 to March 2023, visitors can experience Refractions: 58th Carnegie International Conversation Series, which will take place in the Carnegie Museum of Art theater. This interdisciplinary conversation series will bring artists and collectives in conversation with audiences to further discuss their works as well as their philosophical commitments and motivations. In March 2023, the 58th Carnegie International Film Program, curated by Rasha Salti, will begin its run at Row House Cinema in Lawrenceville, PA. Carnegie Museum of Art will also provide drop-in, expanded language, and docent tours for all audiences, as well as programs and learning resources for youth and families throughout the duration of the show.

“Our hope was to create an exhibition that speaks to common entanglements, desires and shared experiences through divergent aesthetic currents and artistic practices,” states Mohebbi. “The 58th Carnegie International brings together an ensemble of erratic, cunning, unruly, disobedient, undisciplined, and intractable attitudes, and gestures that overwhelm the ambition of any one organizational intent. We are grateful to all the artists and contributors for sharing their art, time, and thoughts with us and look forward to finally welcoming visitors to experience this exhibition.”

“The 58th Carnegie International’s public program series is intentionally activating the galleries, outdoor spaces, and surrounding community to provide expansive points of entry for all visitors,” says Dana Bishop-Root, Director of Education and Public Programs at Carnegie Museum of Art. “We welcome visitors to spend time with the 58th Carnegie International and experience how the exhibition expands as they bring their own lived experiences, histories, and cultural references to the galleries and programs.”

Eric Crosby, the Henry J. Heinz II Director, Carnegie Museum of Art, and Vice President, Carnegie Museum of Pittsburgh, comments: “Carnegie Museum of Art is a meeting place for Pittsburgh and the world. Nothing exemplifies this more than the Carnegie International, an ambitious and global project that makes inquiry into the art and ideas that shape our time. The program is indicative to what we hope to achieve as Carnegie Museum of Art looks to the future—positioning us as an inquisitive and responsive institution dedicated to contributing to both local and global creative conversations.”

Carnegie Museum of Art Announces Artists Participating in the 58th Carnegie International, titled Is it morning for you yet?

2022 Exhibitions, Announcements, Carnegie International

The exhibition features new and historical works by over 100 artists and collectives

Pittsburgh, PA (June 22, 2022) –Today, Carnegie Museum of Art officially announces artists and collectives that will participate in the upcoming 58th Carnegie International. The exhibition, titled Is it morning for you yet?, runs from September 24, 2022 to April 2, 2023, and unfolds along two conceptual overlapping currents: historical works from the collections of international institutions, estates, and artists, alongside new commissions and recent works by contemporary artists.

Organized by Sohrab Mohebbi, the Kathe and Jim Patrinos Curator of the 58th Carnegie International and associate curator Ryan Inouye with curatorial assistant Talia Heiman, the exhibition traces the geopolitical imprint of the United States since 1945 to situate the “international” within a local context. The exhibition borrows its title from a Mayan Kaqchikel expression, where instead of saying “Good morning” it is customary to ask, “Is it morning for you yet?” Inspired by a conversation with artist Édgar Calel, who will present a new commission for the show, Is it morning for you yet? acknowledges that human beings’ internal clocks and experiences are different: when it’s morning for some, it might still be night for others.

“The artists participating at the 58th Carnegie International,” says Mohebbi “many of whom are showing art in the United States for the first time, combines a practice of reconstitution, reminding us that not only do our histories of pain and longing bind us, but furthermore, our narratives of resistance and survival help us reimagine the world.”

Eric Crosby, the Henry J. Heinz II Director of Carnegie Museum of Art, adds: “Our list of artists contributing to the 58th Carnegie International reflects the expansiveness of the curatorial platform we are evolving at Carnegie Museum of Art. It exemplifies how the museum, as an inquisitive and responsive institution, welcomes collaborators from across the region, our broader nation, and the globe. We invite their perspectives to activate the museum as a site for civic and social engagement, connecting our experiences to a larger whole.”

Pittsburgh, PA (May 4, 2022) – Carnegie Museum of Art is pleased to welcome visitors back to Inside Out, the museum’s free outdoor summer event series that celebrates Pittsburgh’s rich cultural landscape with performances, activities, food, and drink on Thursday nights and Saturdays. Beginning Saturday, June 4, and running through Saturday, August 13, Inside Out will offer a robust calendar of activities and experiences with new and returning partners and special events.

For the second iteration of Inside Out, artist Rafael Domenech will transform the museum’s Sculpture Court into a site-specific pavilion commissioned for the upcoming 58th Carnegie International. Visitors will be able to enjoy performances, DJs, art activities, local food trucks, and beverages every Thursday from 5 to 9 p.m. and Saturday from noon to 5 p.m.

Thursdays will celebrate Pittsburgh’s expansive nightlife scene, providing an after-work destination for friends to connect during the week. On Saturdays, visitors and families alike can enjoy special site-specific performances and art-making activities. Returning performers such as PearlArts and Hugo Cruz and Caminos will have a chance to expand on their performances from last summer, while Hill Dance Academy Theater and the Bill Henry Band will make their Inside Out premiere. On select days, visitors can create their own artworks in a series of workshops facilitated by Domenech. A selection of food trucks on-site will be Alberta’s Pizza, El Rincon Oaxaqueño, Caribbean Vybz, and Soul Biscuit, among others. Trace Brewing will also serve as the official brewery partner for this year’s Inside Out.

“Inside Out welcomes you back for a summer of free performances, art-making workshops, and dancing at Carnegie Museum of Art. Inside Out offer visitors the opportunity to experience art as a convener of communities and friendships, while enjoying a vast range of local artists and arts organizations throughout the region,” says Dana Bishop-Root, Carnegie Museum of Art’s Director of Education and Public Programs. “We’re particularly enthusiastic about artist Rafael Domenech’s commission for the upcoming 58th Carnegie International as part of this year’s Inside Out. The pavilion Domenech is creating in the museum’s Sculpture Court will be unveiled on opening day of Inside Out, June 4. Our partners, performers, and artists will respond to and layer on to his installation with their own artistic practices and expressions. We want our visitors to bask in the light of art and community at this year’s iteration of Inside Out, especially in the lead-up to the September opening of the 58th Carnegie International.”

Inside Out will expand its programming on Thursday evenings by welcoming visitors to bring their own art-making and writing tools to create art and community with museum educators.
