"Making Faces: The Depiction of Women in Japan from Edo to Today" opens October 16, 2009
"Making Faces" is the culmination of a Museum Studies seminar taught by Eric C. Shiner, The Milton Fine Curator of Art at The Andy Warhol Museum. Twenty-five students spent the early part of the semester learning about Japan, woodblock prints and curatorial practice, and then worked in teams to present this exhibition as part of their course credit. The group made all decisions relating to the exhibition, including theme, installation technique, lighting and wall panel design, and also wrote all label texts as part of this unique hands-on learning process. The wonderful prints on display come from the Barry Rosensteel Collection in Arizona, and we would all like to thank Mr. Rosensteel for his support of this project. Additional prints are on display in the Special Collections section of Hillman Library.
