[This message is being forwarded on behalf of Shelley Bernstein of the Brooklyn Museum.] Brooklyn Museum is trying to get the word out about Click! and we are down to the last couple of weeks of the online evaluation period. If you've already spent some time doing this - many, many thanks. If you haven't, we'd love it if you could spare some time to evaluate photographs submitted for this exhibition. It would also be helpful if you'd pass the word along to others. We really need a diverse crowd and that means we need evaluators with range of knowledge (including none!) and varied geographic locations (including outside of Brooklyn!) Here's what all this is about: Click! A Crowd-Curated Exhibition is a photography exhibition that invites Brooklyn Museum's visitors, the online community, and the general public to participate in the exhibition process. Taking its inspiration from the critically acclaimed book The Wisdom of Crowds, in which New Yorker business and financial columnist James Surowiecki asserts that a diverse crowd is often wiser at making decisions than expert individuals, Click! explores whether Surowiecki's premise can be applied to the visual arts-is a diverse crowd just as "wise" at evaluating art as the trained experts? Now we need a diverse crowd. If you know everything about art or nothing at all, we really need you to help us out. Create an account, log in and evaluate some of the works that have been submitted during our open call. Your participation will shape the exhibition, opening at the Museum on June 27, 2008. Evaluation can take a while, but you can do as little or as much as you want *and* you can log in anytime throughout the eval period which ends May 23. Register and get started here: www.brooklynmuseum.org/exhibitions/click/ <http://www.brooklynmuseum.org/exhibitions/click/> Thanks so much!
