Historical Note

James Johnson Sweeney (JJS) was born on May 30, 1900 in Brooklyn, New York. The Sweeney family had immigrated from Donegal, Ireland and ran a business importing rugs, lace, and textiles. JJS grew up in Cincinnati and Chicago and as a youth traveled to Europe. JJS received his A.B. degree from Georgetown University in 1922 and continued his studies in literature and art at Jesus College in Cambridge, England from 1922-1924, at the Sorbonne in Paris in 1925, and at the University of Siena, Italy in 1926. In 1927, JJS married Laura Harden and they had five children together: Ann Sweeney Baxter, Sean Sweeney, Siadhal Sweeney, Tadhg Sweeney, and Ciannait Sweeney Tait.

Beginning in 1935, JJS organized several exhibitions at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA). He was named MoMA's Department of Painting and Sculpture Director in 1945, a position he held for one year. It was also during this period that JJS would start his long association with the International Association of Art Critics, serving on its Board from 1948-1963 (Vice President from 1948-1957, President from 1957-1963, and Director in 1963). Though JJS was known internationally as a lecturer, editor, curator, art historian and critic in the 1930s and early 1940s, he remained involved in the family textile importing business.

In 1952, JJS succeeded Hilla Rebay as the second director of the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum (SRGM), formerly the Museum of Non-Objective Painting. He was the choice of the new chairman of the Board of Trustees, Harry F. Guggenheim (HFG), with whom JJS would work closely to reshape the physical and public image of the museum. JJS was responsible for reorganizing and re-envisioning the priorities of the museum into a modern art museum, beginning with a renovation of its exhibition space. This included many aesthetic changes such as painting the museum walls white and removing exhibited paintings from their frames. Previously the exhibition space was carpeted in shag rugs, the walls covered in heavy dark drapes, and paintings were exhibited in heavy decorative frames. Under his direction, the SRGM adopted cataloging and registration procedures modeled after MoMA's registration system. Additionally, JJS brought in Sheldon and Caroline Keck, two museum conservators, to create the Conservation department and train staff. JJS was also involved in the erection of the Frank Lloyd Wright (FLW)-designed museum building, which opened October 21, 1959, playing an active role in the building's design and construction. This included having FLW's design for lighting altered to suit the museum's needs.

JJS also expanded the scope of the collection to include "objective" painting and sculpture. He emphasized the public service role of the SRGM by establishing educational programs, long term loans programs, and the "Guggenheim International Awards" in 1956. JJS was also instrumental in promoting art films and supported a number of film projects, most notably "The Adventures of *." He also attempted to establish an Art Film Laboratory at the SRGM, and encouraged a museum policy for artists to have their work reviewed, critiqued, and encouraged.

Over the course of JJS's eight years at the museum, he corresponded with hundreds of artists and students. During his extensive worldwide travels to fulfill speaking engagements, attend conferences, research for exhibitions, and search for artwork to add to the SRGM permanent collection, JJS took time to visit many of these artists at their homes and studios. Artists discovered on these visits were the basis for two large exhibitions held at the SRGM that focused on new or unknown artists: "Younger European Painters: A Selection" (1953) and "Younger American Painters: A Selection" (1954).

During JJS's directorship the SRGM held four to seven exhibitions per year. In addition, the museum organized several loan exhibitions that traveled to dozens of universities, municipal archives, and other institutions. Highlights of JJS's exhibition program include the first American exhibition of Robert Delaunay's work (1955) and sculptor Constantin Brancusi's first career retrospective (1955). JJS also organized a joint exhibition, "Jacques Villon, Raymond Duchamp-Villon, and Marcel Duchamp," often referred to as "The Three Brothers" exhibition, in connection with the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston in 1957. That same year the SRGM organized the "Guggenheim International Awards, 1956" (1957), an exhibition featuring the works of the winners of the international biennial award competition.

In 1958, JJS hired Dr. Grace L. McCann Morley (GMM), previously Director of the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, as the SRGM Assistant Director. GMM only served in the position for eight months before retiring in July 1959. Her responsibilities included planning the May 1959 General Assembly of the International Association of Art Critics held in New York City and assisting JJS in his day-to-day duties as director, including acquisitions. GMM also helped the museum prepare for its impending move into the FLW-designed museum building.

The FLW building located at 1071 5th Avenue in New York City opened to the public on October 15, 1959. JJS's influence ran throughout the building and could be seen in the use of JJS's method for hanging artwork on the walls rather than FLW's vision of free standing easels. For the duration of the building's construction until the time of FLW's death in April of 1959, the two men were at odds over its design. This friction was one of the factors that led JJS to tender his resignation in 1958, but HFG temporarily convinced JJS to remain on the job.

JJS again resigned from the SRGM in July 1960, but carried out his duties until August 15, 1960. After his departure from the SRGM in 1960, JJS went on to serve as Director of the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston from 1961-1967, Art Adviser and Chairman of the Executive Committee at the Israel Museum, Jerusalem in the early 1970s, and continued to publish essays and articles and contribute to exhibition catalogues for the remainder of his life. JJS died in Manhattan on April 14, 1986.

Scope and Content Note

The James Johnson Sweeney records document the activities of the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum's (SRGM) second director. This collection contains correspondence, reports, newspaper and magazine clippings, photographs, reproductions of artwork, loan forms, architectural plans, public affairs materials, memoranda, department records, exhibition information, and legal documents. Records outside the scope of James Johnson Sweeney's (JJS's) directorship can be found in Series 1. Background. All other records document JJS's administration of the SRGM as he expanded its scope and oversaw the museum's move into the newly constructed Frank Lloyd Wright (FLW)-building.

Insight into the changed structure and direction of the museum under JJS's administration is provided in Series 2. Board of Trustees through the monthly and annual reports generated by JJS and SRGM staff for the Board of Trustees. Series 3. Administration contains all the administrative records retained by the Director's Office. It documents financial concerns, conservation of artwork, public relations efforts, and work related to production of art films. Also included are subject files on JJS assembled by the Public Affairs Department. Clippings found in these folders relate to JJS's professional activities for and outside the SRGM, his lectures, and his travels.

The bulk of the collection is comprised of correspondence including feedback from SRGM visitors; letters and invitations from other museums; requests for loans; acquisitions of new artwork; and communication between JJS and scholars, collectors, and the administrations of other institutions. Though primarily written by and addressed to JJS, a portion of the outgoing correspondence was written by other SRGM staff on his behalf. Many letters include attachments of photographs, invitations, newspaper clippings, exhibition brochures, and financial documentation. Also found among the correspondence are letters between JJS and artists, who were encouraged to send examples of their work to the museum to be critiqued by JJS.

Series 5. Exhibitions and Objects contains information on artwork that was acquired or displayed by the SRGM during JJS's tenure. The series contains materials related to exhibitions, loans, and additions to the permanent collection. The exhibition files contain correspondence, research, publications, traveling exhibition information, loans, and newspaper clippings. The majority of the exhibition files are related to the Guggenheim International Award and the resultant exhibitions. Other well documented exhibitions include "Constantin Brancusi," (1955), "Sixty Years of Living Architecture, The Work of Frank Lloyd Wright" (1953), "Younger European Painters: A Selection" (1953) and "Younger American Painters: A Selection" (1954). The records on the Extended Loan Program include materials created by the SRGM to educate borrowers on the loan program policies and track the location and condition of all loaned artwork from the SRGM's permanent collection.

Series 6. Research includes materials collected by JJS and is divided into two groups: artists and scholars, and galleries and museums. The artists and scholars research files are organized by last name and contain photographs or slides of artwork, lecture slides, brochures, small catalogues, biographical information, articles, and occasionally small original drawings. It is not clear which of these records were requested by JJS and which were sent unsolicited. The gallery and museum research files are organized by gallery or museum name. They contain materials that JJS collected about various galleries and museums, and materials that were sent to JJS by galleries and museums, which sometimes include correspondence. The majority of the galleries and museums represented are from the New York City area.

This collection also documents the preparation and opening of the FLW-designed SRGM at 1071 Fifth Avenue. Records related to the FLW building detail the internal and public controversies that arose over its construction. The FLW building records reflect the entire process of the building's creation from the temporary building erected in 1953 until its opening exhibition in October 1959. The FLW building was just one of four buildings that housed the SRGM during JJS's directorship. Documentation of each can be found in Series 7. Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum Buildings. Highlights include architectural plans, diagrams, and planning documents for the renovation of 1 East 88th Street, 7 East 72nd Street, and 1071 5th Avenue Townhouse, as well as the construction of the FLW building. Other materials in Series 7 include articles, correspondence, maintenance reports, facilities costs, photographs – many of which are presumed to be by William Short –, and construction estimates.

Additional information on the preparation for the move into the FLW building can be found in Series 4. Assistant Director Dr. Grace McCann Morley. Her records document her tenure as Assistant Director (1958-1959). They also include the planning of the May 1959 General Assembly of the International Association of Art Critics held in New York City, artist correspondence, and administrative records.

The highlights include architectural plans, diagrams, and planning documents for the renovation of 1 East 88th Street, 7 East 72nd Street, and 1071 5th Avenue (Townhouse), as well as the construction of the currently standing Frank Lloyd Wright (FLW) Building. The FLW Building records reflect the entire process of constructing the FLW-designed building from the Temporary Building (Pavilion) erected in 1953 until its opening exhibition in October 1959. Other records include articles, correspondence, maintenance reports, facilities costs, photographs and glass slides – many of which are presumed to be by William H. Short –, and construction estimates. This includes documentation of the design process through numerous reports and correspondence between the Office of FLW, JJS, and other SRGM staff. The majority of letters from the Office of FLW are to and from architect William H. Short. It is important to note that the architectural plans are not complete sets of blueprints and may not represent the ultimate construction of the buildings. The FLW architectural plans consist primarily of photocopies and working copies of blueprints.
