Libraries, archives and special collections have become the primary repositories of these complex legacies that lie at the intersection of art, design, and media. How can library special collections support scholars and museums exploring the development of American visual culture? Scholars and Curators Corinne Granof (Northwestern University, Block Museum) and Amy Beste (SAIC) will tackle this question through a discussion of the archival research and library loans that fostered the exhibition Up is Down: Mid-Century Experiments in Advertising and Film at the Goldsholl Studio. The exhibition examined the legacy of a trailblazing Chicago design firm that brought Bauhaus aesthetics to the American public with work for such clients as Motorola, Kimberly-Clark, Revlon, and 7-Up. The exhibition case study will offer a springboard for considering how library and museum partnerships can give voice to unexplored cultural histories. | | REGISTER | | | | | | | PRESENTERS | | Amy Beste is director of public programs and senior lecturer in the department of film, video, new media, and animation at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.
