05/06Annual Report

The Montreal Museumof Fine Arts

As I study the results and performance of the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts in the year 2005-2006, the word that comes to mind is “paradox.” It is truly paradoxical that, despite the fact that we have had our second best year in terms of attendance, and our best ever in terms of the number of members and partnerships with major institutions both nationally and internationally, at the same time the Museum has been in a situation of paralyzing financial insecurity.

It is equally paradoxical that, while in eight years, thanks to the Museum Foundation and donors, we have acquired over ten thou-sand distinguished artworks, that this year’s acquisitions are valued at over $8 million, compared to $1.5 million fifteen years ago, and that we are receiving ever more offers of significant artworks thanks to the tireless efforts of the whole Museum staff and in particular the Curatorial and Development Departments, yet the search for funding for the Museum’s expansion projects has gotten bogged down. It is clear that

projects such as the acquisition of the Erskine and American Church and its conversion to a Pavilion of Canadian Art and the eventual expansion southward of the Jean-Noël Desmarais Pavilion ought to be not only encouraged but supported in a concrete manner. The exhibition space currently available for the display of our collection is already inadequate and has been for many years. It is unthinkable that we should be obliged to call a halt to the enrichment of our collection because of a lack of space. The expansion that we envisage would certainly permit us to display many more works than at present, and furthermore, it would enable us to acquire new works with a view to judiciously enlarging each of our collections and hence to preserving more of our collective artistic heritage. With these new infrastructures, the Museum would be in a posi-tion to fulfil its role as a unique cultural landmark with renewed vigour, and to establish itself as the economic and artistic force that it could and should be. I am convinced that, with the firm support of its partners, the

Museum could again become a flagship for the arts in Montreal.

I am delighted to be able to report that, overall, the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts still stands in a class of its own; nevertheless, year after year I am saddened by our ongoing state of financial paralysis. In this respect, I must acknowledge the Quebec government’s addi-tional funding of $2 million to help us balance our operating budget and reduce the deficit accumulated in 2005-2006. But this was just a one-time contri-bution: the disturbing reality is that the slight surplus remaining at the end of this fiscal year is still insufficient to wipe out our accumulated operating deficit of $1.6 million. We are back to square one. The Museum is forced to struggle year after year to obtain the funding it needs in order to operate, perpetually juggling with a precarious finan-cial situation that undermines its ability to achieve its full potential. For quite some time now, we have been performing this high-wire act in order to produce exhibitions of interna-tional calibre while maintaining

the high quality of our services. But the facts must be faced: inventiveness has its limits, and the financial constraints under which we labour constitute a severe handicap on our ambi-tions for the future.

Thanks to a remarkable programme of superb tempo-rary exhibitions, we welcomed a total of 611,390 visitors to the galleries during the twelve-month period ending on March 31, 2006. This result has only been surpassed once in the history of the institution, in the year 2000-2001, when 626,610 people visited the Museum, 327,644 of them just to see the exhibition From Renoir to Picasso: Masterpieces from the Musée de l’Orangerie. Given that there has been a worldwide drop in museum attendance, I am particularly delighted by these results.

In drawing your attention to these achievements I must not fail to give full credit to our faith-ful supporters, the Friends of the Museum. We now have 44,172 members – more than ever before! Their strong attachment to the Museum and the loyalty

President’sReport

of an ever growing public encour- age us to pursue our mission and to develop even more exciting exhibitions and activities.

I also salute the outstanding work done by the Board of Trust- ees and the Museum’s numerous committees, who have used their expertise and networking contacts to help launch many institutional and educational projects. By building relation-ships between the Museum and various companies, foundations, organizations and patrons, we acquire the resources to offer a varied programme that helps make the Museum a leader in its field.

This year, we have had the pleasure of welcoming two new members to the Board of Trustees, the Honourable Francis Fox and Huu Trung Nguyen. Our warmest thanks go to the retir-ing members, Louis Bernard, Rachel D. Sachs and Christine Marchildon, who throughout their mandate have given us the benefit of their managerial skills and their love of the visual arts. I should like to take this oppor-tunity to thank each and every member of the Board and of

the Museum Foundation. Their sincere commitment and unwa-vering loyalty constitute further proof of the inherent vitality of this institution.

The support of our sponsors is, of course, vital. We have the good fortune to be able to rely on funding from distinguished com-panies like Sun Life Financial, which presented the exhibition Edwin Holgate in the summer of 2005. Our thanks also go to Dynamic Mutual Funds and to our devoted partner METRO; without these sponsors the Montreal presentation of the exhibition Landscape in Provence would not have been possible. We are also most grateful to Hydro-Québec, a long-time partner and the proud sponsor of the exhibition Catherine the Great, presented last spring.

Many companies and foun-dations have demonstrated their support for the various activities of the Education and Public Programmes Department, and we offer them our warmest thanks.

And here I must acknow-ledge with deep gratitude the tremendous work done by our

volunteers. Their exemplary dedication and passionate commitment not only help to establish good relations with our visitors on a daily basis but also guarantee the success of our fund-raising events. I should also like to thank the many individuals whose contributions ensured that this year’s Museum Ball made a record profit, en-abling the Volunteer Association to present us with a cheque for $830,000. These funds permit us to present world-class exhibi-tions, to publish the catalogues for which the Museum is famous and to acquire more works of art for our collection. This year I want to stress the Volunteers’ a priori support for our expansion project, since a portion of their donation will help finance the purchase of the Erskine and American Church, which will, we hope, be converted into a Pavilion of Canadian Art. I must also congratulate the Volunteer Association for having instituted a new fund-raising event de-signed to attract new donors. In less than two years, the original masked soirée known as “Eyes Wide Open” is already showing

a profit. Given the growing number of benefit events in Montreal, this is undoubtedly a most encouraging sign.

Of course, it is obvious that we could not possibly continue to carry out our mandate without the ongoing collaboration of our government partners. Here I must stress the support of Quebec’s Ministère de la Culture et des Communications, which has responded to our appeals for assistance in recent years. I am also grateful to Canadian Herit-age and its Museums Assistance Program, to the Conseil des arts de Montréal and the Canada Council for the Arts, also major contributors.

We have recently had the good fortune to attract to our ranks Michel Lamoureux, the new Executive Director of the Museum Foundation. The Foun-dation’s role is a vital one for the Museum’s future, and I am confident that he will be success- ful in rising to this challenge. And speaking of success, I am immeasurably grateful to Réal Raymond, now embarking on his third year as President of the Museum Foundation. With his

enthusiasm, his ready availabil-ity and his idealism, he projects a huge optimism about our development projects. It will be thanks to committed people like Mr. Raymond that we will be able to contribute to the new dynamic of Montreal in the twenty-first century.

Let me conclude these acknowledgements by paying tribute to the astonishing crea-tive energy of our Director, Guy Cogeval. In the past year, his adventurous spirit and initiative not only brought us the exhibi- tion Landscape in Provence, co-produced with the Musées de Marseille, but also the extraor- dinary Catherine the Great in collaboration with the State Hermitage Museum and the Art Gallery of Ontario. Once again, his resourcefulness and deep knowledge of the arts have en-abled the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts to take its place on the world stage.

We should not forget the publication of the many exhi-bition catalogues for which the Museum is celebrated. These richly illustrated volumes with essays contributed by renowned

specialists have made signifi-cant contributions to the history of art.

In addition to greatly expand-ing our collection over the past decade, Mr. Cogeval’s bold and original vision has brought the MMFA to the attention of major museums the world over. By striking out in new directions, he has attracted the interest of such legendary institutions as the Louvre, the Met, the Hermitage and the Grand Palais and made them actual or poten-tial partners.

But even a visionary like the Director would be unable to achieve these successes without the co-operation, pro-fessionalism, dedication and efficiency of his matchless team headed by Nathalie Bondil, Chief Curator; Danielle Champagne, Director of Communications; and Paul Lavallée, Director of Administration.

In light of these achieve-ments, the result of the hard work of its staff, its volunteers and its partners, the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts is undeni-ably an exceptional institution, ranked among the world’s leading

museums and occupying a unique position among the museums of Canada. We are confident that the various levels of government will also assign it a special place in their list of top priorities.

Bernard LamarrePresident

Like our President, Bernard Lamarre, I find it deplorable that our uncertain financial situation is preventing us from achieving our goals, while for years the combined efforts of everyone at the Museum have contributed so much to the fame and reputation of Montreal and indeed of all Quebec.

We have great aspirations for the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, and the potential spin-offs of these aspirations for our city and province are even greater. Our President and I continue to believe in our dreams and are determined to continue the expansion and enrichment of our collection and our institution. The Montreal Museum of Fine Arts must become a benchmark for museums in Canada. It is the country’s oldest cultural insti-tution and should continue to be recognized as much for its encyclopedic collection as for its original exhibitions orchestrated by our own team and interna-tional partners.

I would like to emphasize once again the considerable effort the Museum has made to maintain its high level of self-

funding, which now covers between 40 and 50% of the operating costs. What is more, our acquisitions of works of art must be almost entirely self-funded. For a museum in Canada, where private cultural initiative is less common than in the United States, this is truly an achievement.

So it is reassuring, indeed encouraging, that the number of Friends of the Museum has grown phenomenally this year, more than any time in our his-tory. We are now counting more than ever on the unconditional support of these 45,000 mem-bers, whose legendary solidarity is expressed in a variety of ways. Thus, hundreds of thousands of dollars are generated by indi-vidual donations during each Annual Fund-raising Campaign. In the face of such generosity, we could not hope to expect more support from our members and the general population. I would also like to express my gratitude to all the individuals and all the businesses who believe in our mission. Without our donors’ financial support, we could not properly carry out our

mandate or contribute to the recognition of our community beyond our borders.

As I said before, the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts is famous because of the quality of its programmes. By backing major exhibitions like Eternal Egypt: Masterworks of Ancient Art from the British Museum, Right under the Sun: Landscape in Provence, from Classicism to Modernism (1750-1920) and Catherine the Great: Art for Empire – Masterpieces from the State Hermitage Museum, Saint Petersburg, we took a gamble that paid off, attracting a vast audience with these ambitious presentations. I am particularly happy about the high number of visitors recorded this year, especially when compared to the drop in attendance in most museums.

It would be negligent of me not to emphasize the extraor-dinary success of the exhibition Catherine the Great. It attracted some 185,000 visitors, who came to learn more about a woman who influenced the course of history. At the inaugural ceremo-nies for this event, the Director of

the Hermitage Museum, Mikhail Piotrovsky, gave a memorable address. Congratulations to the Museum’s Chief Curator and curator of this exhibition, Nathalie Bondil, for succeeding in making a historical character accessible, and investing so much energy and effort, passion and knowledge in the planning and execution of the project! The exhibition catalogue Catherine the Great immediately became the reference on the subject; a special thank you to the Museum’s publishing team.

Apart from pleasing art lovers, these major shows turn-ed out to be opportunities for forging and strengthening links with the international museum community. The exhibition dedi-cated to Landscape in Provence is the most convincing example of such connections. For this event, the Museum’s expertise came into its own, especially in the initial preparation phase. First, the division of the sub-ject matter, starting with the Romanticism of Joseph Vernet and ending with the Fauves, was unusual. Next, the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts played

Director’sReport

06/07

a major role in organizing and presenting this exhibition in Marseilles. This initiative meant that the talent of our curators, our conservators, technicians and installation team made an impression in France. Even the design of the Marseilles presentation was the work of one of Quebec’s own, designer Christiane Michaud.

During the year 2005-2006, visitors also discovered Dutch Prints and Drawings from the Golden Age: 1585-1660, pre- sented in the Marjorie and Gerald Bronfman Prints and Drawings Gallery. Organized to commemorate the sixtieth anni- versary of the liberation of the Netherlands by Canada, the exhibition featured etchings by Rembrandt, including two self- portraits and an engraving, as well as drawings by Hendrick Goltzius. It was inaugurated at the Museum by Princess Margriet of the Netherlands.

This year, the Museum gave priority to Canadian art and offered the public the chance to discover or rediscover some great homegrown artists. Cap-tained by our curator Rosalind

Pepall, the exhibition Edwin Holgate was the first major retrospective dedicated to this painter since his death. It re-vealed the great talent of this leader in modern Canadian art of the 1920s and 1930s. Not only was this exhibition shown in our Museum, it also travelled to four other Canadian institutions: the Glenbow Museum in Calgary, the McMichael Canadian Art Collection in Kleinburg, Ontario, the National Gallery of Canada in Ottawa and the Beaverbrook Art Gallery in Fredericton (where it will be shown in 2007).

Our curatorial team present-ed other exhibitions dedicated to Canadian artists. Our curator Jacques Des Rochers organized Sam Borenstein, which revealed the dynamic and striking oeuvre of the Lithuanian-born painter. Cecil Buller proved to be the most important exhibition yet dedicated to this artist, who earned numerous awards over her long career. Cecil Buller was the mother of Dr. Sean Murphy, a Museum Trustee and former President and a passionate champion of the MMFA. Buller practised engraving as well as

illustration, design, watercolour and oil painting. In connection with this exhibition, a presenta-tion of some of Sean Murphy’s favourite works were featured in The Collector’s Eye. Stéphane Aquin organized the Freeform Series exhibition John Oswald: instandstillnessence, which plunged us into the unusual world of time-lapse photography. The exhibitions Jean McEwen: “From My Hand into Colour” and the admirable Nicolas Baier: Hunting Gallery also turned out to be unmissable events. For the latter exhibition, the Museum collabo-rated for the first time with the Musée d’art contemporain de Montréal in the co-publication of a monograph on the artist.

These events centred on Canadian art reflect the Mu-seum’s determination to raise the profile of our national art as much as possible. We regard this mission as an undertaking towards our artists, whom we are trying to promote via trav-elling exhibitions, symposiums and acquisitions. The Museum also hosted a national sym-posium on Canadian art that explored the issues surrounding

collections of Canadian art prior to 1950. The event was a great success and will be repeated in 2006 on the subject of contem-porary Canadian art.

The mission of promoting Canadian art has crossed the Atlantic with the organization and presentation of Riopelle, shown at the State Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg in summer 2006 and at the Musée Cantini in Marseilles in winter 2006-2007.

The Museum’s image was consolidated abroad as well. Several international projects will soon come to fruition with the collaboration of prestigious partners: the Réunion des mu-sées nationaux and the Louvre as well as the Art Institute of Chicago and the Metropolitan Museum of Art for the exhibition Girodet, Romantic Rebel; the Musée d’Orsay and the Réunion des musées nationaux for the exhibition Maurice Denis: Earthly Paradise; and the Réunion des musées nationaux and the Grand Palais for the presentation Once Upon a Time Walt Disney. In the longer term, the Museum is working at present in close

collaboration with the Havana National Museum of Fine Arts on an exhibition devoted to twentieth-century Cuban art; and with the Museo di arte moderna e contemporanea di Trento e Rovereto (Mart) on a show focussing on art and jazz in the twentieth century. Following the presentation of Catherine the Great, new projects are underway with the Hermitage Museum: an exhibition on the two last Czars, Alexander III and Nicolas II, in collaboration with the Art Gallery of Ontario; and an exhibition on the contemporary design collection at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts together with objets d’art from the Hermitage. This project will allow the Museum to demonstrate its creativity in presenting tempo-rary exhibitions, and will make its decorative art collection known beyond our borders. In 2000, the Museum acquired the prestigious Liliane and David M. Stewart collection of decora-tive arts, the range of which was demonstrated by the exhibition Il Modo Italiano. This was mount-ed by the MMFA and will travel this fall to the new Royal Ontario

Museum in Toronto and then to the Mart in Italy.

All these partnerships have helped us increase the visibil-ity of the Museum as the largest bilingual publisher of art books in Quebec and one of the largest in Canada. It is worth noting that the catalogue on Catherine II of Russia was the 200th publica-tion by the Museum’s Publishing Department. While the exhibi-tions last only a few months, their complementary catalogues live on after them. Published simultaneously in French and English, sometimes even in other languages (Italian for Il Modo Italiano and Russian for Riopelle), they add to the Museum’s inter-national reputation. They are distributed in Canada and abroad by international co-publishers – Flammarion, Gallimard, Hazan, Skira, Snoeck and Somogy – that the Museum collaborates with. This is why the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts’ publications can be seen in the best European and American bookstores, including those of great museums like the Louvre and the Metropolitan.

This year, the Museum’s collection was expanded by

483 works with a total value in excess of $8 million, bringing the number of items acquired in eight years to almost ten thousand. This represents a 25% increase in our collection, which could not have been achieved without the generos-ity of numerous collectors and donors like Liliane and David M. Stewart, whose gift represents half of the pieces acquired. I would also like to thank Renata and Michal Hornstein, who have given us priceless works that will be admired by Museum visitors for generations to come. I also salute our team of experts and curators, whose expertise en-sures that our collection grows in an intelligent manner.

The 2005-2006 financial year saw the acquisition of several important pieces: the purchase of Self-portrait Smiling, a print by Marc Chagall; Feliciter or The Scottish Girl, a rare bust in paint-ed terracotta by Henry Cros, and a collage by Christo entitled The Pont Neuf, Wrapped, Project for Paris. Thanks to the generous financial support of the Société Générale/Fimat, we have enrich-ed our collection with a superb

fall-front secretary of painted wood, gold leaf and leather by Maurice Dufrêne. This is a rare transitional piece exhibiting many Art Nouveau elements but heralding the simpler, more sober design of Art Deco. A generous gift from The Museum Campaign 1988-1993 Fund enabled us to acquire the spectacular Proust’s Armchair by the Italian designer Alessandro Mendini.

The Museum also thanks the International Friends of the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts and the Museum’s Volunteer Association Fund for purchasing Raoul Dufy’s L’Estaque, painted in 1913. Another treasure among recent acquisitions is the Halberdier, painted in 1895 by the Swiss artist Ferdinand Hodler. This monumental work now forms a centrepiece in the Museum’s Collection of Euro-pean Art thanks to an exemplary gift from Michal and Renata Hornstein, who have already given us 327 drawings by this artist.

The Museum can also be proud of acquiring several works by major Canadian painters: these include Jean-Paul Riopelle’s

08/09

Gravity, a wonderful vertical mosaic painted in 1956 and given to us by Yseult Riopelle; a historic work by Michael Snow donated by the Volunteer Association, Four Grey Panels and Four Figures (1963) from the series “Walking Woman,” of which the Museum also pos-sesses three other works; and Rita Letendre’s Poetic Device, recently donated by Guy Fournier, who has also given us several works by celebrated artists like Pellan, Toupin, Comtois and Vasarely. Speaking of Pellan, I must stress the fact that Madeleine Pellan gave us the entire corpus of prints executed by her husband, Alfred Pellan, a total of seventy-two artist’s proofs in impeccable condition.

I am happy to report that we have established auspicious part-nerships with other Montreal celebrities with the aim of enriching the cultural life of the city. Kent Nagano, musical direc-tor of the Montreal Symphony Orchestra, and I announced the inauguration of a new series of chamber music concerts in the galleries, featuring musicians from the orchestra playing com-

positions linked to the various exhibitions being presented. And the Cirque du Soleil and its founder and CEO Guy Laliberté agreed to a long-term loan of their collection of African art to the Museum. We took advantage of this opportunity to redesign new galleries for our collection. With its thirty-six sculptures executed between the mid-nineteenth and the early twentieth century, on public display for the first time, the Cirque du Soleil became our main partner in these new galleries. Warm thanks are also due to McGill University’s Redpath Museum for lending us a num-ber of works to complete this exhibition. Finally, I must not fail to mention our partnership with another leading citizen of Montreal: the Daniel Langlois Foundation, with whom we are preparing an exhibition of contemporary art for 2007.

In 1879, the Museum was already pursuing an educational mission, which is still very much alive today. The fortieth anniversary of the Museum’s Association of Volunteer Guides is testimony to this commit-

ment. By sharing their love of art with our visitors, the Volunteer Guides make a vital contribution to the life of the Museum. My special thanks go to each and every one of the hundred and twenty guides for the wonderful work they do.

As regards our involvement with the community, the Museum takes particular pride in the suc-cess of its outreach programme “Sharing the Museum,” an ini- tiative designed to welcome a less privileged clientele into our galleries in a context that is both educational and enjoyable. We rejoice in the popularity of this programme, inspired by role models of good citizenship, which enables us to play our part as responsible corporate citizens.

We are also proud of our presentation A Topsy-Turvy World: Museum Employees in the Spotlight, held in March 2006. This exhibition of works executed by the Museum’s staff was an unusual way of bringing to light the hidden talents of our employees and revealing their strong sense of belonging to our institution.

My sincere thanks go to this enthusiastic and dedicated team of people to whom we undoubtedly owe the astonishing attendance figures recorded this year. Given the difficult financial situation that has obliged us to cancel some ventures in pro- gramming, communications and acquisitions, their commitment is the more remarkable. It is clear that without the hard work of every member of our staff, the achievements we pride our-selves on today could never have been so spectacular.

Fortunately, our chronic under-funding problem was counterbalanced by the gener-osity of a number of donors to whom I am exceedingly grateful. Special evening events were organized in honour of Dr. Sean B. Murphy, Sir Neil M. Shaw and Yvon Tardif, three outstanding patrons to whom we largely owe the enrichment of our collection.

My warmest thanks go to people who have wholeheartedly supported me for many years: to Bernard Lamarre, our President, whose devotion to the Museum is immeasurable; I have not the words to express my sense of

10/11

indebtedness to him; and to Réal Raymond, President of the Foundation, who, since joining us has been doing a job with enormous implications for the future of the Museum. Finally, I should like to reiterate my sincere thanks to the Museum’s Volunteer Association, who pre-sented us with a record donation of $830,000 – I can never thank them enough for their dedication and their tireless and invaluable work. And of course thank you to the Volunteer Guides, the Friends of the Museum and all the staff. Their commitment, tangible proof of their affection for this institution, is a real source of pleasure and gives me a sense of great satisfaction and pride.

Volunteers’Reports

Since 1948, the members of the Volunteer Association of the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts have worked tirelessly in order to achieve two main goals: to raise funds to support the Museum’s activities and to help raise the Museum’s profile.

Fund-raising in Montreal is a difficult task, as more and more organizations vie for the same dollars. However, the creativity, perseverance and dedication of the Volunteer Association have once again been rewarded. On May 31, 2006, the Volun-teer Association presented Guy Cogeval with a cheque for $680,000. Part of these funds will be used to help the Museum finance the acquisition of the

former Erskine and American Church, which will be convert-ed to exhibition space while maintaining its architectural integrity.

This donation of $680,000 is in addition to the $150,000 donation made to the Museum in September 2005, which was used to acquire two works of art whose importance is matched only by their great diversity: Michael Snow’s Four Grey Panels and Four Figures from the series “Walking Woman” (1963) and Jean-Victor Bertin’s Forest Inte-rior (1826). And so, the Volunteer Association’s total gift to the Museum for the 2005-2006 fiscal year is $830,000.

The Association’s second

objective is to organize activities that contribute to increasing the Museum’s visibility and attracting more visitors and new members. These activities in-clude the Museum Ball, the “Eyes Wide Open” masked soirée, cultural trips and tours, art sales and rentals at the Galerie Arte Montréal (formerly the Art Sales and Rental Gallery), and the Christmas tree display and concerts. In 2005-2006, these activities drew close to three thousand Montrealers and gen-erated major media coverage.

It goes without saying that these outstanding achievements are due to the combined efforts of all the volunteers working on the Association’s many committees.

Volunteer Association

The year 2005-2006 was truly outstanding for the Association of Volunteer Guides in many regards. We had the privilege of leading guided tours of four very interesting temporary exhibitions: masterpieces of antiquities from the British Museum, presented in the exhi-bition Eternal Egypt; Canadian landscapes seen through the eyes of Edwin Holgate; land-scapes from Provence in the magnificent works presented in Under the Sun; and the treasures of Catherine the Great from the

State Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg.

All year long, we had the pleasure of leading visitors on tours through the treasures in the Museum’s collections. Wednes- days and Sundays, our tours for the general public focussed on a specific collection. And of course we adapted our tours for all ages and levels when dealing with school groups. We also added two new tours to our repertoire: a Tour-in-a-Wink for families one Sunday a month and a tour of the Max and Iris

Stern Sculpture Garden during the summer. In total, we led 34,404 visitors on guided tours.

For over forty years, the Museum’s Association of Volun- teer Guides has played an important role in Museum life. Encouraged by our visitors’ won-derful support, we are putting all our energy to work preparing new guided tours. We would like to extend our thanks to all the Museum’s staff and the curators for facilitating our preparatory work and making our guiding so enjoyable.

Auditors’ Report and Financial Statements of the Museum

36/37

To the Members of The Montreal Museum of Fine Arts

We have audited the balance sheet of The Montreal Museum of Fine Arts as at March 31, 2006 and the statements of rev-enues and operating expenses and changes in net assets and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial state-ments are the responsibility of the Museum’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards re-quire that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evi-dence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also in-cludes assessing the accounting

principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.

In our opinion, these financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Museum as at March 31, 2006 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles.

Notes to the Financial Statements year ended March 31, 2006

1 / Purpose of the organization

The Montreal Museum of Fine Arts (the “Museum”), a not-for-profit organization, encourages the plastic arts and an appreciation thereof and acquires, conserves, collects, promotes, and exhibits works of art on behalf of the citizens of Montreal, the province of Quebec, Canada and elsewhere. The Museum is incorporated as a private corporation under the Loi sur le Musée des beaux-arts de Montréal and is a registered charity within the meaning of the Income Tax Act.

2 / Summary of significant accounting policies

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles and reflect the following significant accounting policies:

Fund accountingThe Museum uses the deferral method to account for contributions and follows the fund accounting method whereby resources are classified into funds in accordance with specified activities or objectives.

i) General FundThe General Fund reports the assets, liabilities, revenues and operating expenses related to the Museum’s day-to-day operating activities. Endowments, the income from which is to be used to increase the original endowment and for day-to-day operations, are presented as restricted net assets of the General Fund.

ii) Capital Assets FundThe Capital Assets Fund reports the assets, liabilities, revenues and operating expenses related to capital assets and the restricted contributions specifically related thereto.

Deferred contributions of the Capital Assets Fund combine federal and provincial grants and the donations specifically restricted for the financing of the buildings.

iii) Acquisitions FundThe Acquisitions Fund reports the assets, liabilities, revenues and operating expenses related to acquisitions of works of art and endowments, the income from which is to be used to increase the original endowment and to purchase works of art.

Interfund balancesInterfund balances comprise interfund advances without any terms of repayment.

Boutique and Bookstore inventoriesInventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value, cost being the average cost.

Deferred chargesCosts of exhibitions and other specific events are charged to the year in which the exhibition or event is held.

InvestmentsInvestments are stated at cost or the market value attributed at the time of the gift. Where there is a permanent impairment in value, management’s policy is to write down the investment to its estimated realizable value.

Accumulated interestThe interest accumulated during the realization of the expansion project of the Jean-Noël Desmarais Pavilion was accumulated separately from the cost of construction and is being recovered through an annual grant from the Ministère de la Culture et des Communications.

Capital assetsCapital assets are recorded at cost in the Capital Assets Fund and are amortized using the straight-line method over the following periods:

Buildings 40 yearsFurniture and equipment 5 years

Deferred contributionsContributions restricted to future period expenses are deferred and recognized as revenue in the year in which the related expenses are incurred.

Deferred contributions reported in the Capital Assets Fund include the unamortized portion of contributions received specifically to defray the cost of the related capital assets and are amortized on the same basis.

Revenue recognitionRestricted contributions are recognized as revenue of the appropriate fund in the year the related expenses are incurred. Unrestricted contributions are recognized as revenue of the appropriate fund when received or receivable.

Endowment contributions are recognized as direct increases in net assets.Restricted investment income is recognized as revenue of the appropriate fund. Unrestricted

investment income is recognized as revenue of the General Fund. Income from externally restricted investments is recognized as an increase in the net assets of the appropriate fund.

Works of artThe Museum’s permanent collection comprises paintings, sculptures, drawings and prints, and decorative arts. The permanent collection is not reflected in the financial statements. Donated works of art are accounted for at fair market value based on external appraisal reports. They are fully amortized in the year of acquisition.

Use of estimatesThe preparation of financial statements in conformity with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

10 / Related organizations and transactions

The Montreal Museum of Fine Arts Foundation The Montreal Museum of Fine Arts Foundation (the “Foundation”) is considered, for accounting purposes, to be a related organization, as certain members of the Museum’s Board of directors are ex-officio members of the Board of directors of the Foundation.

The Foundation, incorporated on March 24, 1994 under Part III of the Companies Act (Québec), is a registered charity. The Foundation is mainly involved in soliciting and receiving donations, bequests and other contributions on behalf of the Museum and administering its funds. In addition, the Museum has entrusted the Foundation with the management of certain investments.

The Foundation organizes and manages an annual fund-raising campaign (the “Annual Campaign”), the aggregate net revenue of which is given to the Museum for the financing of its operations. The Museum’s financial statements include revenues of $1,130,696 from the Foundation ($914,285 in 2005), which is presented in “Donations and sponsorships”. The Foundation also gave the Museum an amount of $100,170 ($113,772 in 2005) for acquisitions of works of arts, which is included in the donations from the Foundation.

46/47

The Museum recorded a revenue from the Foundation and in accordance with donors’ wishes in the amount of $824,675 ($949,781 in 2005) from the 1998-2002 campaign as follows: $39,675 ($164,781 in 2005) for acquisitions of works of art, $10,000 ($10,000 in 2005) for educational activities, nil ($25,000 in 2005) for the Museum’s day-to-day operations, and an amount of $775,000 ($750,000 in 2005) for exhibitions. These amounts are presented in “Donations from the Foundation”. An amount of $372,500 was recorded as a deferred contribution in the General Fund.

Volunteer Association of the Montreal Museum of Fine ArtsThe Volunteer Association of the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts (the “Association”) is a separate not-for-profit entity incorporated under Part III of the Companies Act (Québec). The purpose of the Association is to organize public fund-raising events for the benefit of the Museum.

The Association made a $830,000 donation ($550,000 in 2005) to the Museum. From this donation, an amount of $120,000 is presented in “Donations and sponsorships” in the statement of revenue and operating expenses and changes in net assets. The balance ($650,000) is presented as “Deferred contribution”. An amount of $680,000 is included in accounts receivable as at March 31, 2006 ($450,000 in 2005).

11 / Financial instruments

The Museum holds and issues financial instruments such as investments, grants receivable and debt instruments. The investments are made up of securities and mutual funds that are primarily publicly traded shares, bonds and debentures.

Fair valueThe fair value of investments is based on quoted market prices at the reporting date. The fair value of the long-term debt is measured by discounting expected residual cash flows at the year-end prime interest rate. Therefore, due to subjective judgment and uncertainty, the aggregate fair value amount should not be interpreted as the realizable value in an immediate settlement of the instruments.

As at March 31, 2006 and 2005, the carrying value of all financial instruments approximated fair value, with the following exceptions:

Credit riskThe Museum has determined that credit risk is minimal given that the counterparties with which it conducts business are mainly government agencies.

Interest rate riskIn its investment portfolio, the Museum holds interests in bond mutual funds. The bonds in these mutual funds bear fixed interest rates. Consequently, a change in market interest rates will affect the market values of the mutual fund bond interests.

Interest rate risk related to long-term debt is judged to be low, as most of the debt (including interest payments) is subsidized by the Government of Québec.

Currency riskIn its investment portfolio, the Museum holds interests in U.S. and international securities and in mutual funds invested in U.S. and international securities. Consequently, a currency fluctuation will have an impact on the market value of these investments.

12 / Collection of the Museum

In its mission to attract the widest possible range of visitors, the Museum has, over the last 146 years or so of its existence, assembled one of the most significant encyclopedic collections in North America.

The collection includes mainly paintings, drawings and prints, photographs, sculptures, instal- lations, jewellery, woodcraft, ceramics, furniture and precious metal artifacts.

The collection has a global reach and covers all historical eras, from antiquity to the present day.The value of the collection is not reflected in the financial statements. Acquisitions are accounted

for as expenses in the Acquisitions Fund. Works of art donated are accounted for at fair market value based on external appraisal reports. They are fully amortized in the year of acquisition (see Note 2).

The Montreal Museum of Fine Arts Foundation

50/51

This year, twelve years after its founding, the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts Foundation has taken a major step forward. The Museum’s Board of Trustees and the Board of the Foundation decided to give the Foundation its own permanent operating structure, with the support of an experienced team that will work closely in collaboration with the Museum’s staff.

The term “foundation” implies a structure on which the future of an institution is “founded,” or based, and it is from a commit-ment to a fresh start and bearing in mind our future development that we have appointed the Foun-dation’s first Executive Director, Michel Lamoureux, to oversee the Museum’s philanthropic and fund-raising operations.

Before joining us, Mr. Lamou-reux was president and CEO of the Laval University Foundation in Quebec City. He has considerable experience in the fields of phi-lanthropy, communications and government relations in Quebec and across Canada. As Executive Director of the Museum Founda-tion, his role is to oversee the strategic planning and imple-mentation of our fund-raising

activities. Mr. Lamoureux holds Bachelor’s degrees in Visual Arts and Social Sciences from the University of Ottawa. He also studied at the Museum’s School of Art and Design in the 1970s. This new mandate represents for him a return to his roots, to the heart of his native city in an institution he holds dear. For us, and for me personally, this is excellent news that heralds the development of splendid new projects that will benefit the Museum and the city.

And that brings us to the question of development, a matter of primary importance for the Museum, as it is for Montreal. Nowadays, in many of the world’s great cities, we see a strong trend towards building major infra-structures for museums; these produce significant economic spin-offs that contribute greatly to the social and economic revital-ization of the cities themselves. It might almost be called an emergent trend of modern life that is as evident in Newcastle and London, Bilbao and Valencia, as it is in Milwaukee and Chicago.

Many observers believe that a city’s power to attract individuals and companies is increasingly

linked to the quality of its cultural institutions and the programmes they present; this dimension of the urban reality is now consid-ered one of the primary factors in the quality of life. In this sense, the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts makes a major contribution to its community, especially when one takes into account its social and economic impact.

What the Museum has to offer is a treasure-house of knowledge, an inexhaustible source of inspi-ration that visitors can discover for themselves in our wide range of exhibitions of works that can be movingly beautiful or stimul-atingly original. The Museum is a window on the cultures of the world, a place of delight in-formed by a sense of history both ancient and modern. It is also a good citizen, working in partnership with hundreds of Montreal’s community groups, and a beacon for the international reputation of Montreal, Quebec and Canada. It preserves, dis-plays and shares our common cultural heritage. And, of course, it represents a considerable asset to the local economy with the numerous financial spin-offs it engenders.

O n t h e o t h e r h a n d , o u r budgetary situation remains precarious, in terms both of maintaining our assets and more importantly of developing as an institution. It is therefore vital that the Foundation’s primary concern be funding, and this is the area in which I intend to work hard with the members of the Board, together with our new Executive Director and the Foundation team.

I wish to acknowledge here the generosity of our donors, who once again this year have helped us enormously. The co-presidents of the 2005-2006 Annual Fund-raising Campaign, David H. Laidley and Huu Trung Nguyen, achieved an impressive result of almost $1.2 million. I thank them and their team of canvassers, whose commitment to the Museum and tireless efforts also represent a tangible contribution to our neighbour- hood, our city and the future of the whole community.

At the end of my second year at the helm of the Museum Foun-dation, I wish to offer my warmest thanks to Bernard Lamarre, Chairman of the Museum’s Board of Trustees. His unswerving

President’s Report

loyalty, wisdom and dedication reflect his sound sense of human values. I should also like to express my admiration for our Director, Guy Cogeval, whose worldwide reputation reflects credit on our institution and enables us to enter into rewarding partnerships with other great museums. My heartfelt gratitude goes to the members of the Museum’s Board and to the staff; their outstanding work helps to create a museum experience of international calibre that was appreciated this year by more than 600,000 visitors.

In short, the Museum is a world in itself that embodies and expresses a rich history of the past century and a half. The on-going story of the Museum, which is more dynamic than ever, will surpass all expectations in the years to come. My grateful thanks to all of you for your active involvement in the history of our Museum.

Auditors’ Report and Financial Statements of the Foundation

54/55

To the Directors of The Montreal Museum of Fine Arts Foundation

We have audited the balance sheet of The Montreal Museum of Fine Arts Foundation as at March 31, 2006 and the state-ments of revenue and expenses and changes in net assets for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Foundation’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian gen-erally accepted auditing stan-dards. Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evi-dence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also in-cludes assessing the accounting

principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.

In our opinion, these financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Foundation as at March 31, 2006 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles.

Notes to the Financial Statements year ended March 31, 2006

1 / Purpose of the Organization

The Montreal Museum of Fine Arts Foundation (the “Foundation”) is incorporated as a not-for-profit organization under Part III of the Companies Act (Québec). The Foundation is a registered charity and a public foundation within the meaning of the Income Tax Act. The Foundation is involved mainly in soliciting and collecting donations, bequests and other contributions on behalf of the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts (the “Museum”) and in administering its funds. In addition, under Article 4 of the agreement between the Foundation and the Museum, the Museum has entrusted the Foundation with the administration of certain investments. These investments are excluded from the Foundation’s financial statements.

2 / Significant accounting policies

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and reflect the following significant accounting policies:

Restricted fund accountingThe Foundation follows the restricted fund method, whereby resources are classified into funds in accordance with specified activities or objectives.

i) General FundThe General Fund reports the assets and liabilities, revenue and expenses related to the Foundation’s day-to-day operating activities as well as any other unrestricted fund item or restricted fund item, the materiality of which does not justify separate reporting.

ii) Restricted fundsEach restricted fund reports its assets and liabilities, revenue and operating expenses in accordance with its respective activities and purpose.

The funds report separately the allocation of restricted donations with a minimum ten-year conservation clause and those with no similar clause. These donations are recorded in the statement of revenue and expenses under the fund corresponding to their restriction.

The Foundation contributes to funding the Museum’s operations through the earnings on the investments in accordance with the objective of each fund and in compliance with the disbursement quota prescribed by law.

InvestmentsInvestments are recorded at the cost or market value assigned at the time of the donation. Where there is a permanent impairment in value, management’s policy is to write down the investment to its estimated realizable value.

Contributed servicesVolunteers contribute a significant amount of time each year to the Foundation, and the Museum’s resources and premises are made available to the Foundation. Because of the difficulty of determining their fair value, contributed services are not recognized in the financial statements.

Use of estimatesThe preparation of financial statements in conformity with Canadian GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

* The market value of the investments is based on the year-end market price.

Investment management fees and safekeeping charges amount to $115,632 ($101,382 in 2005) and are presented as a decrease in investment revenue.

4 / Interfund transfers

The Foundation decided to transfer an amount of $563,586 from the General Fund to the Acquisitions Fund, without clause.

5 / Related party transactions

Donations made to the Museum are presented separately in the statement of revenue and expenses.The Museum pays certain expenses of the Foundation, including the salary of the executive director.

These expenses are reimbursed to the Museum and are presented as an increase in donations to the Museum and amount to $145,778 ($197,779 in 2005).

6 / Financial instruments

Interest riskThe bonds included in the Bond Pooled Fund bear fixed interest rates. Consequently, a variation of the market rate will have an effect on the fair value of investments in the Bond Pooled Fund.

Currency riskThe Foundation holds investments in U.S. and international securities and in mutual funds invested in U.S. and international securities. Consequently, a currency fluctuation will have an impact on the market value of these investments.

Fair valueThe fair value of accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and due to the Museum is approximately equal to their carrying values due to their short-term maturity.

The fair value of investments is presented in Note 3.

7 / Statement of cash flows

A statement of cash flows has not been prepared since the cash flow information is readily apparent from other financial statements and related notes.
