Almost 50: Sneaking a Peek at the Dixon's 50th Anniversary Year
Julie Pierotti, Martha R. Robinson Curator, Dixon Gallery and Gardens
A native of Memphis, Julie graduated from the University of Mississippi with a Bachelor’s degree in Art History and went on to receive an MA in the History of Art from Vanderbilt University.
Since joining the staff of the Dixon in 2007, she has helped organize a number of exhibitions for the museum, some highlights include "Regional Dialect: American Scene Paintings from the John and Susan Horseman Collection" (2009), and its follow-up, : Modern Dialect: American Paintings from the John and Susan Horseman Collection" (2012); "The Impressionist Revolution: Forty Years of French Art at the Dixon" (2016); "The Real Beauty: The Artistic World of Eugenia Errázuriz" (2018); and "Sweet Sixteen: 16 Galleries, 16 Exhibitions" (2022).
Julie leads the Curator’s Circle program that helps acquire new works of art for the Dixon’s collection. In 2021, she published "Dixon Gallery and Gardens: Paintings, Sculpture, Works on Paper," an updated catalogue of more than one hundred works of art in the Dixon’s collection.
Wednesdays can be especially busy at Park and Cherry. If you're attending Munch and Learn, please plan ahead and place your lunch orders early. To reduce disruptions during the lecture, guests are asked to bring their own food from the cafe to the auditorium. You may request to-go containers to make the trip to your seat easier.
▶ Pre-order by calling (901) 312-1277.
