Learning by doing. We're all about it. That's why we let a class of museum education students at the #UniversityOfGeorgia organize the upcoming exhibition "Feel the Beat: Rhythm, Music and Movement." The exhibition will also inspire our free summer Art Adventures program.

A detail of Woody Crumbo's serigraph "Medicine Song," a color print that shows a Native American man with a full feather headdress kneeling on the ground. He's seen in profile, facing left, and holds a round painted drum with feathers hanging from it up by his head. He strikes the drum with a padded red stick and his mouth is open, suggesting that he may be singing.

A lot of people here dogpiling on this screenshot, but if anybody bothered to check the guy’s bio or his other posts they’d find it’s meant to be a joke in an Andy Kaufman way.

Last year, we bought a collection of 17 Georgia paintings by 19th- and 20th-century artists, many of whom are lesser known. Even the ones who are better known, like #NellChoateJones, aren't exactly _well_ known. We're excited to start studying these works and learning about the Georgia scenes many of them show.

Nell Choate Jones' painting "Square at St. Mary's," a color scene that shows a Black family in a southern square, next to a big tree. They could be in front of a church. Most of them are wearing white.
Augusta Oelschig's painting of a young Black boy in a gold frame. She shows him at bust length, looking slightly to his left. He wears a pale blue shirt with an open collar.
A watercolor painting of Savannah by Hattie Saussy. Seen from a park it shows several four- or five-story brick buildings across the way, partially blocked by greenery. The image is soft and pastel, more abstract in the foreground and more precise in the background.

Did you know that the #UniversityOfGeorgia has TWO sets of Jean Charlot murals on its campus? Charlot hung out on the UGA campus for three years in the early 1940s, teaching and working with students. His murals that were inside what was once UGA's journalism building recently underwent some restoration thanks to our museum and the help of a lot of people from across campus.

We've got buried treasure on view in a new display at the museum. Thanks to a recent gift and the work of a consultant and a staff member, we're displaying mingqi, or "spirit goods," in two adjoining cases in the permanent collection. Read on to learn more about how this grouping of well-preserved objects came together.

A color photograph of a Bactrian camel mingqi, or Chinese grave good. The camel has its right front knee on the ground, meaning that the bottom of its neck grazes the ground, and it holds its head up high. You can see remnants of colorful paint on its saddle and hair.

Sur trois prises de position éthiques de Bibliosuisse
La récente prise de position de la commission Éthique professionnelle1 de Bibliosuisse concernant la neutralité des bibliothèques m'a rappelé l'existence de précédents documents du même type, et j'ai eu l'envie de les commenter en tant que professionnel et citoyen. Avant de commencer, je précise que la commission fait globalement du très bon travail, mais que certains détails suscitent chez moi des questions…
