SUMMARY:Appliqué Sur Le Terrain
DESCRIPTION:In the installation “Appliqué sur le terrain\,” Henry Payer views the cultural landscape of present-day Nebraska through the vibrant lens of Indigenous ribbonwork appliqué. The installation is on view through Sept. 4\, 2025.  \n “Appliqué sur le terrain” involves sewing layers of silk ribbons\, cotton\, wool\, and glass beads to make regalia for special occasions. The distinctive symmetrical patterns reflect kinship\, ecological knowledge\, and oral histories of various Indigenous communities.  \nInspired by The Joslyn’s collection of Karl Bodmer watercolors\, Payer created eight appliqué collages that layer Missouri River landscapes\, calico fabric\, and texts about the colonization of the region. He hand-stitched the designs in the Ho-Chunk appliqué style\, called zeenįba hirarucak. Each floral and geometric pattern references historical examples created by Umónhon\, Ponca\, Ho-Chunk\, Pawnee\, Ioway\, and Otoe-Missouria women\, honoring the legacy of artists whose names were not documented. As part of this collaborative project\, contemporary artists have generously shared their appliqué stories and regalia. \nNote: The museum is open until 8 p.m. on Wednesday and Thursdays.

SUMMARY:Abraham Lincoln: President\, Emancipator\, Corporate Pitchman
DESCRIPTION:“Abraham Lincoln: President\, Emancipator\, Corporate Pitchman” is on display at The Durham Museum Jan. 20 through April 27.  The exhibit offers an innovative and immersive multi-sensory exploration of one of America’s most iconic figures. Through tactile displays and detailed imagery\, the exhibition sheds light on Lincoln’s multifaceted roles – as a president who led the United States through the Civil War\, an emancipator who took pivotal steps toward abolishing slavery and a corporate figure who\, posthumously\, became a symbol in modern advertising. \nVisitors are invited to engage with Lincoln’s legacy in ways that appeal to both the senses and the intellect\, with tactile images enhancing the experience for all audiences\, including those who are blind or visually impaired. By merging history with contemporary cultural analysis\, the exhibition encourages a critical look at how Lincoln’s image has been appropriated and commercialized over time. \nExhibit is included with admission.

SUMMARY:Antarctic Dinosaurs
DESCRIPTION:“Antarctic Dinosaurs” runs Feb. 15 through May 4 at The Durham Museum. The exhibit is included with museum admission.  \nWhile Antarctica is a frozen land of snow today\, “Antarctic Dinosaurs: reveals the lush habitat it once was 200 million years ago and the unique animals that called it home. Visitors will learn about rare dinosaurs and the history of the continent with real fossils and engaging interactives. \nThe only exhibition of its kind to showcase holotypes of dinosaur fossils\, “Antarctic Dinosaurs” immerses visitors in the thrilling hunt for never-before-seen fossils and sheds light on our planet’s ever-changing climate and geology. Come face-to-face with large-scale replicas of dinosaurs and explore touchable casts and interactive 3D models that bring Antarctica’s unique species to life. Then witness the persistent challenges and extreme conditions of expeditions to the “Lost Continent” to gain an understanding of the tough working conditions for scientists who rely on an arsenal of modern power tools to extract fossils from rock and bring these discoveries to light. \nExhibit Highlights: \n\nMore than 60 fossils\, full-scale replications\, and touchable models\nNumerous mechanical and digital interactives\, including “excavation” interactives\nReal and cast dinosaur skeletons\, including Cryolophosaurus and Glacialisaurus\nMeteorite from Antarctica

SUMMARY:Appliqué Sur Le Terrain
DESCRIPTION:In the installation “Appliqué sur le terrain\,” Henry Payer views the cultural landscape of present-day Nebraska through the vibrant lens of Indigenous ribbonwork appliqué. The installation is on view through Sept. 4\, 2025.  \n “Appliqué sur le terrain” involves sewing layers of silk ribbons\, cotton\, wool\, and glass beads to make regalia for special occasions. The distinctive symmetrical patterns reflect kinship\, ecological knowledge\, and oral histories of various Indigenous communities.  \nInspired by The Joslyn’s collection of Karl Bodmer watercolors\, Payer created eight appliqué collages that layer Missouri River landscapes\, calico fabric\, and texts about the colonization of the region. He hand-stitched the designs in the Ho-Chunk appliqué style\, called zeenįba hirarucak. Each floral and geometric pattern references historical examples created by Umónhon\, Ponca\, Ho-Chunk\, Pawnee\, Ioway\, and Otoe-Missouria women\, honoring the legacy of artists whose names were not documented. As part of this collaborative project\, contemporary artists have generously shared their appliqué stories and regalia. \nNote: The museum is open until 8 p.m. on Wednesday and Thursdays.

SUMMARY:Abraham Lincoln: President\, Emancipator\, Corporate Pitchman
DESCRIPTION:“Abraham Lincoln: President\, Emancipator\, Corporate Pitchman” is on display at The Durham Museum Jan. 20 through April 27.  The exhibit offers an innovative and immersive multi-sensory exploration of one of America’s most iconic figures. Through tactile displays and detailed imagery\, the exhibition sheds light on Lincoln’s multifaceted roles – as a president who led the United States through the Civil War\, an emancipator who took pivotal steps toward abolishing slavery and a corporate figure who\, posthumously\, became a symbol in modern advertising. \nVisitors are invited to engage with Lincoln’s legacy in ways that appeal to both the senses and the intellect\, with tactile images enhancing the experience for all audiences\, including those who are blind or visually impaired. By merging history with contemporary cultural analysis\, the exhibition encourages a critical look at how Lincoln’s image has been appropriated and commercialized over time. \nExhibit is included with admission.

SUMMARY:Abraham Lincoln: President\, Emancipator\, Corporate Pitchman
DESCRIPTION:“Abraham Lincoln: President\, Emancipator\, Corporate Pitchman” is on display at The Durham Museum Jan. 20 through April 27.  The exhibit offers an innovative and immersive multi-sensory exploration of one of America’s most iconic figures. Through tactile displays and detailed imagery\, the exhibition sheds light on Lincoln’s multifaceted roles – as a president who led the United States through the Civil War\, an emancipator who took pivotal steps toward abolishing slavery and a corporate figure who\, posthumously\, became a symbol in modern advertising. \nVisitors are invited to engage with Lincoln’s legacy in ways that appeal to both the senses and the intellect\, with tactile images enhancing the experience for all audiences\, including those who are blind or visually impaired. By merging history with contemporary cultural analysis\, the exhibition encourages a critical look at how Lincoln’s image has been appropriated and commercialized over time. \nExhibit is included with admission.
