The Uncataloged Museum: April 2015
http://uncatalogedmuseum.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Saturday, April 25, 2015. This past week, in Kyiv, Ukraine, I had the opportunity to walk through two quite incredible exhibits at the National Art Museum of Ukraine, with deputy director Yuliya Vaganova. I'll combine the two into this one post but both deserve deep attention on their own. Encourage that conversation. In part, the introductory label says,. The second exhibition, Spetsfond,. Fundamentally, I realized that these exhibits are both about power. On the one hand, they both share the horrib...

The Uncataloged Museum: What, Me Worry? Crowdsourcing Teenage Memories
http://uncatalogedmuseum.blogspot.com/2015/07/what-me-worry-crowdsourcing-teenage.html
Thursday, July 9, 2015. What, Me Worry? It's sometimes tricky to figure out the starting place for collecting memories for an exhibition project. Do newspaper press releases work? What about the Facebook page? The museum staff's own network? How do you figure out who will be a great interview and what topics really resonate, given the constraints of time and money? How can we approach it more creatively? But then, where to find people to talk to? And how to get them to share? We've received dozens of res...

The Uncataloged Museum: We Are Not Separate from Politics: AAM and Beyond
http://uncatalogedmuseum.blogspot.com/2015/05/we-are-not-separate-from-politics-aam.html
Monday, May 4, 2015. We Are Not Separate from Politics: AAM and Beyond. S always a whirl of competing priorities. Which session do I go to? Do I skip a session in favor of catching up with a colleague? Where do I find the best fried chicken (in the case of Atlanta) What museum do I want to make sure I see? And most importantly, how do I make sense of it all? What's rising to the top for me? One of my very first stops in Atlanta was the National Center for Civil and Human Rights. These are American issues...

The Uncataloged Museum: I ♥ Maps
http://uncatalogedmuseum.blogspot.com/2015/08/i-maps.html
Wednesday, August 12, 2015. I ♥ Maps. The summer I graduated from college, my friend Jane and I drove cross-country and back. I don't even remember using a guidebook but what I do remember are a whole set of AAA Trip-Tiks that guided us across the country, showing us scenic routes and interesting places to explore (which must explain the visit to Wall Drug. An exhibit at the Brooklyn Historical Society). Here's a bit of what's come across my virtual desk:. Check out Spotify's Interactive Music Map. Large...
