Art museums offer us a glimpse of history and culture of different countries from all over the world through the medium of art and are an excellent way for the present generation to gain knowledge and improve our understanding of various historically important eras. Museums often display collections of art for the audience to appreciate and analyse the artist’s work and also give us insight on the evolution of human race throughout the centuries. During my visit to the Northwest Museum of Arts & Culture, I studied the exquisite works of art with keen interest which considerably improved my understanding of the different aspects and types of art.
Northwest Museum of Arts & Culture (MAC) houses exhibits revolving around American Indian and other cultures, regional history and visual art. Being a first time visitor to this museum, I had my fair share of doubts and apprehensions so before I visited the museum I made a rough plan with ideas chalked out broadly about what all I wanted to see. I visited the museum on a weekday in order to avoid huge queues and overflow of people. As I entered one of the galleries, I was a little awe struck and it took me a while to adjust myself to the beauty and creativity which the artists exhibited there.
The first exhibit I liked is called George Small (Rocky boy) and Son by photographer Richard T. Lewis. It showed a tribal man holding a small baby. While there was very little information regarding the photograph, it kind of attracted me and I felt as if the people in the painting were speaking to me. The man was from the Blackfoot tribe (Native American) and it made me go home and search more details about the same which increased my knowledge about the Blackfoot Indians. They are the original residents of the northern Plains, particularly Montana, Idaho, and Alberta, Canada. Most Blackfoot people are still residing in those regions today. Honestly, I’m not very well versed with the Native American history so this photograph really made me curious about this tribe and their history and culture in general which made me research more about it. I think that is the beauty of museums. More often than not we retain some part of the visual we witnessed and then reflect more on it and dig deeper into the details.
I walked around a bit in the gallery and then came across a very interesting photograph showing a big group of men (mostly workers with shabby clothes) in a tavern having beer. The title made me more curious and i understood from the details under the title Kodak Moments that the company Kodak in 1900 introduced cheap cameras prices at $1 to promote snapshot photography and make it available to the common people. Their catchy slogan was “You press the button, we do the rest”. This led to a great number of people taking into photography and this museum has a significant number of images of the Northwest Inland taken by various photographers, both professions and hobbyists, showing their cul.

Cultural Beauty in the Heard Museum
The Heard Museum in Arizona has been hosting a cultural event dubbed Beauty Speaks for Us. It is an important platform for showcasing rich elements of cultures in America as well as the unique behaviors of people belonging to various cultures. The museum has continually grown in stature and size to become a world class center for quality collections, festivals and educational programming. It is dedicated to an accurate and sensitive depiction of native cultures and arts. As an institution, it combined stories of American Indians from their individual points of view with the beauty of art works. Heard Museum sets a national standard with its innovative programs, unmatched festivals and world-class exhibitions by working together with native people to produce first-person voices. Collaboration with tribal communities and American Indian artists provide ambience for visitors to enjoy a unique perspective of cultures and art of native people more so those originating from the south west. The mission of this museum is to become the preeminent museum globally for the manner in which it advances the art of American Indians, its presentation as well as interpretation while stressing its intersection with cultural themes and broader artistic expression. ‘Beauty Speaks for Us’ is a quintessential event in this museum, thus it is important to delineate elements of culture observed during the event that displayed astounding beauty.
The presence of American Indian tribes in their traditional attires dancing and selling various indigenous items speaks volumes for the richness of American culture and the behavior of American Indians. Without this kind of event, it is easy to assume that America is a nation that is only associated with modernism and highly technological advancement. However, observing these tribes allows one to understand that Arizona as a state is important in promoting diversity in the US.
Their moving styles introduce a stunning scene to see. The moves are one of a kind and, combined with delightful apparel and consummately choreographed moves, give stimulation while making a good humored state of mind for spectators. Enormous group accumulate around the artists and many individuals likewise rush to territories where their things are sold to buy globules, gems, pots and works of art. These people group give the express a novel look and make the exhibition hall an essential place to visit with this occasion giving roads and chances to all Americans to figure out how individuals lived in .

4. Elegance of Malice:
Swords from Talismans to Battle Weapons
The temporary exhibit – a private collection – featured
swords as handcrafted, traditional works of art, superior
weapons of confrontation and historical objects.
The exhibit also revealed the mystique that surrounded
the objects, from their
methods of manufacture to the civilizations and
exploits of those that used these beautiful, but deadly,
objects.

5. Elegance of Malice
2 of 4
Challenge: Collaboration with all “players” involved: sponsor, display
case fabricator, Executive Director (project overseer) and private collector
to ensure smooth communication, timely installation and meeting the
needs of the collector in terms of care for and protection of the
artifacts…and telling the story they wanted told about their collection.
6. Elegance of Malice
3 of 4
“…Through the process of a growing collection, our knowledge of and respect for the
cultures where the objects originated has also grown. As we learned intimate details about
the traditions and customs of the lands and people from the homes of the artifacts, it
created a level of cultural understanding and awareness that has thoroughly enriched our
lives…”
7. Elegance of Malice
4 of 4
“…The objects, individualized and unique, also became a portal to
another dimension of deeper spiritual understanding. We realized
the story reached far beyond the object and ultimately saw
ourselves not as owners but as guardians of the artifacts: they did
not belong to us; we were simply entrusted with their protection
for a time. ..”
8. 100 Years
of Troup County Business
1 of 4
The exhibit marked the 100th
anniversary of the LaGrange-
Troup County Chamber of
Commerce and celebrated
Troup County business and
industry of the past
century.
11. Business
4 of 4
CHALLENGE: Almost all of the objects in the exhibit were on loan
from members of the local business community who helped establish
and grow area commerce. Loans often came in at the last minute so
I could not determine what I had to work
with. This limited planning the content of
displays and the overall look of the exhibit.
This required much flexibility and
spontaneity, as loans came in even after
the exhibit opened.
13. Royalty
2 of 3
A private collection that
reflected an unbroken line
of mementoes to mark
important dates in the British
royal family from the reign of
Queen Victoria in the 1800s to
the April, 2011 wedding of
William and Kate.

CHALLENGE:
The topic and objects were
refined and sophisticated, so I
wanted every aspect of the
exhibit – photographs and
displays – to have the same sense
of elegance. This presented a
strong challenge because
of budget constraints and
required much
imagination to come up
with creative ways to
achieve this goal.
16. On loan traveling exhibit from
South Arts. The exhibit was a
tribute to the musical forms that
created the Southern sound and
celebrated the enduring power of
homegrown, community-based
music making.

3 of 3
CHALLENGE:
The exhibit used text panels and audio
wands to highlight music, voices and
musicians from the South and themes that
shaped Southern traditional music.
It was, however, completely without
artifacts. I had to find artifacts to
supplement the exhibit consistent with the
exhibit theme and to give the exhibit more
dimension. I sought local stories,
instruments, musicians and music that
reflected the tradition of deeply rooted local
music passed down from generation to
generation and those that represented
transplanted, new sounds – music with
international influences
flourishing locally in the New South.
This required connections and community
relationship-building.
18. 100 Years of Tough Cookies: Girl Scouts of West Georgia
Challenge:
When it was determined we would do this
exhibit, I was informed that display items
would be dependent on loans from
members of the community. However, I
was not comfortable with this sole
approach. In an effort to secure objects of
historic significance as well as display local
items that might be less historic but more
personally meaningful, I took the initiative
to pursue additional resources. Having a
more broad-based approach maintained
the integrity of the exhibit, honored local
Girl Scouts, ensured meaning beyond the
local community and, with the theme of the
100-year Girl Scout movement, paid tribute
to the history of a national organization
whose sole mission has been its
commitment to women. Without having any
initial contacts, I persisted in negotiation to
secure historic images and artifacts from
Girl Scouts of the USA National
Preservation Center and the Girl Scouts of
Greater Atlanta.

25. Bottles

I created vignettes of
leisure scenes where
people would likely be
found drinking soda to
give the exhibit more of
a part-of-life and less
sterile feel.
27. Bottles
4 of 4
Challenge: How to
display bottles – a
transparent item
with little color that
sometimes looked
uninteresting. The
cases needed
something to
brighten the bottles
and improve their
visibility but not
overshadow them so
that their beauty
and interest would
be accentuated. I
decided to use
“bubble” ribbon and
clear gems that gave
the appearance of
bubbles as accents.
