[MCN-L] Palmer Museum of Art's first digital publication

2020-02-20 Thread Lucarelli, Carolyn J
Hello members of the MCN listserv,


The Palmer Museum of Art at Penn State is happy to share its first digital 
publication, "African Brilliance: A Diplomat's Sixty Years of Collecting," 
which accompanies the physical exhibition on view at the museum from February 8 
through May 24, 2020. The exhibition showcases more than eighty works from 
East, Central, and West Africa collected over six decades by retired U.S. 
Ambassador Allen C. Davis.

The online catalogue features 360-degree photography of the African art 
objects, as well as interviews with Davis and with members of the Penn State 
community who have had firsthand experience with the types of objects presented 
in the exhibition. The catalogue has been funded by a University Strategic 
Initiative Seed Grant in support of advancing the arts and humanities, awarded 
by Penn State's Office of the Executive Vice President and Provost.
