27. DONALD KELLEY
Crayon Drawing, 2007
Mixed Media: Watercolor, Crayon and Pastel
47.5 x 31.5
$2,500
Courtesy of the Donald Kelley Estate
Donald Kelley was a quiet, private person, but the spark in his eyes about art-making was electric - contagious even. He spent many years in our printmaking studio creating extraordinary work. His energy, focus, and fearless approach to art-making was an inspiration for our students, a half century younger than he.
Donald was an inveterate world traveler the taste for which began when he was awarded a Bartlett Traveling Scholarship from the SMFA. He received an MFA from Yale University and was, for many years, the Director of the Gallery at the Boston Athenaeum. His work has been exhibited widely and, in October, 2019, MassArt hosted a magnificent exhibition of his work to celebrate his legacy for our future printmakers.
A precious seed for aspiring to a new level of curiosity, passion, and profound love for art and travel has been planted by Donald Kelley. His generous planned gift will fund a substantial ongoing international travel award, which seniors and alumni can compete for.
In addition, his gift will also fund a crucially needed scholarship for a sophomore printmaking major of merit and need, to help them continue their studies at MassArt.
We are extremely grateful to Rose Coleman, Donald’s dear friend and the executor of his estate for donating his work to the Auction and especially for declaring that any proceeds will be donated to our Master Print Series - a strenuous annual event which our printmaking majors profoundly benefit from participating in.
May Donald’s generous initiative inspire others to support the extraordinary talent of MassArt students!
