Two student-curated exhibitions open in the Rare Book Room of Canaday Library.
The Tale of Genji unveils the newly restored six-fold screen by Kano Seisen'in Osanobu (1796-1846). Painted in delicate detail with striking gold-leaf and brilliant pigments, Bryn Mawr's Osanobu screen provides a captivating introduction to this literary classic of Japan.
Exhibiting Africa: Ways of Seeing, Knowing, and Showing was organized by students in the 360 course cluster, "The Politics and Poetics of Race," and offers a new look at the College's collections of African art and artifacts. Having spent the fall semester investigating a history of exhibitions of "Africa" and African materials, while also visiting present-day displays in local museums, these student curators apply what they've learned in an exhibition of their own making.
