Amy Adams, the outgoing director, said of his hiring "John Ollman and I couldn't be happier that Alex is joining the gallery, as his curatorial interests are closely aligned with Fleisher/Ollman's. Baker most recently served as the senior curator, Contemporary Art at the National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne, Australia, where he curated Ranjani Shettar: Dewdrops and Sunshine (2011), Harrell Fletcher: The Sound We Make Together (Melbourne) (2010), and Ricky Swallow: The Bricoleur (2009), among other exhibitions. I hope she understood how much that support meant to me.įleisher/Ollman is excited to announce that Alex Baker has been named the new director of the gallery. Personally, I am thankful for her support of the gallery and what we do. It is this quality of Kippy we will miss the most. No challenge was too big or too difficult that it couldn't be met. She challenged all of us to look beyond the known. More than anything though, we'll miss her as a friend, cheerleader and artistic visionary. We will always be indebted to her for this. Many of the artists Fleisher/Ollman represents created amazing works at FW&M with Kippy's unwavering support, including Howard Finster, Bill Walton, Tristin Lowe and Paul Swenbeck. She made the Fabric Workshop and Museum a place where truly inventive works of art could be realized and seen on the world stage. Renowned for her support of artists' projects in both fiber-based and new media, as well as for bringing international artists into our midst, Kippy was a boon to Philadelphia. Her sudden death is an immeasurable loss to Philadelphia and the art world at large. LinkĪll of us here at Fleisher/Ollman mourn the loss of our neighbor and friend Marion ('Kippy') Boulton Stroud. A memorial for Chris will take place in Philadelphia this summer. Our deepest sympathies go out to Adelina and Niko, and to all of Chris’ family and friends during this difficult time. While Chris lived in Philadelphia only a few short years, he made many friends in the art community here, and will be greatly missed. His signature constructions comprised of antique paper, old book covers, and binding tape imbued a minimal austerity with human warmth. In 2015, they had a son, Nikola (Niko).Ĭhris was a good-humored character whose keen wit could light up a room. The couple married and moved to Toronto a few years later, where Adelina took a curatorial position at the Art Gallery of Ontario. At the opening reception of this exhibition Corales met, and fell in love with, then Philadelphia Museum of Art curator Adelina Vlas, and relocated to Philadelphia from Portland, Oregon soon after.

*update: to contribute toward Chris's family's present and future expenses, visit It is with great sadness that we share the passing of Chris Corales, an artist first introduced to Fleisher/Ollman by Chris Johanson in the 2011 summer show he curated for the gallery, entitled Introspective/Retrospective.
