Spalding House
Spalding House, also known as the Cooke-Spalding House and called Nuumealani (heavenly terrace) by Mrs. Cooke, together with its gardens constitute a 3½ acre campus of the Honolulu Museum of Art located in Makiki Heights, on the island of O'ahu.〔Honolulu Museum of Art, ''Honolulu Museum of Art, Spalding House'', 2012, p. 2〕〔Fox, Robert M. and David Cheever, "Historic Cooke family home converted from hidden gem to contemporary museum", ''Honolulu Star-Advertiser'', Oct. 5, 2014, p. B2〕
Spalding House was built as a residence in 1925 by Anna Rice Cooke, widow of Charles Montague Cooke. At the same time, the Honolulu Museum of Art was being built on the site of her former home on Beretania Street in Honolulu. The Makiki Heights, home was designed by Hart Wood and later enlarged by the firm of Bertram Goodhue and Associates. In 1950, Cooke's daughter, Alice Spalding (Mrs. Phillip Spalding), engaged Vladimir Ossipoff to remodel the ground floor.〔Fox, Robert M. and David Cheever, "Historic Cooke family home converted from hidden gem to contemporary museum", ''Honolulu Star-Advertiser'', Oct. 5, 2014, p. B2〕 The Honolulu Museum of Art acquired the estate as a bequest from Alice Spalding in 1968 and operated it as an annex for the display of Japanese prints from 1970 to 1978. In the late 1970s, it was sold it to a subsidiary of ''The Honolulu Advertiser''. In 1986, the Thurston Twigg-Smith family converted it to The Contemporary Museum. Following interior renovation, the museum, with its doors by artists Robert Graham and Tony Berlant, opened to the public in October 1988.〔(【引用サイトリンク】work= The Contemporary Museum, Honolulu web site )〕〔Honolulu Museum of Art, ''Honolulu Museum of Art, Spalding House'', 2012, p. 3〕
On May 2, 2011, The Contemporary Museum, Honolulu ceased to exist as an independent entity, and is now known as the Honolulu Museum of Art Spalding House. The Honolulu Museum of Art acquired Spalding House along with its collections of more than 3,000 works of art.〔Burlingame, Burl, “Art museums sign off on merger agreement”, ''Honolulu Star-Advertiser'', May 3, 2011, p. B2〕 The Makiki Heights building, which has about 5,000 square feet of gallery space, reassumed its former name, “Spalding House”. It currently displays rotating exhibitions of mostly contemporary art.

David Hockney designed stage sets for three one-act French operas presented at the Metropolitan Opera in 1981. He reconstructed these stage sets for a 1983 exhibition at the Walker Art Center, ''Hockney Paints the Stage''. The three-dimensional set for Maurice Ravel's opera, ''L'enfant et les sortilèges'' (''The Child and the Spells''), was acquired for the 1988 opening of The Contemporary Museum, Honolulu, and is permanently installed in the Milton Cades Pavilion on the grounds of Spalding House.〔Honolulu Museum of Art, ''Honolulu Museum of Art, Spalding House'', 2012, p. 6〕
