SUMMARY:Les Indes Galantes
DESCRIPTION:The exhibition “Clément Cogitore: Les Indes Galantes” is on display at The Joslyn from Sept. 10 through Feb. 23\, 2025. Working at the intersection of cinema\, photography\, and installation\, Clément Cogitore examines ritual\, collective memory\, and notions of the sacred. “Les Indes Galantes: takes its title and music from a 1735 opera-ballet by French composer Jean-Philippe Rameau. The fourth and final section of the opera is inspired by a meeting in 1725 between six Native American tribal chiefs and King Louis XV\, during which the chiefs performed several traditional dances. Cogitore pairs Rameau’s dramatic Baroque soundtrack with a style of dance born in Los Angeles in the early 1990s known as K.R.U.M.P. Spanning ages\, races\, and ethnicities\, Cogitore’s dancers gather in a circle on a sparsely-lit stage to engage in a “battle\,” a common K.R.U.M.P performance format. The filmmaker captures this scene from multiple vantage points—distant observer\, audience member\, performer—to immerse viewers in this tight-knit dance community. \n

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:All Aboard: The Railroad In Art
DESCRIPTION:The temporary exhibition “All Aboard: The Railroad in American Art\, 1840–1955” is on display at The Joslyn Art Museum from Feb. 15 through May 4. Tickets are $10 for the general public ages 13 and older; members and children 12 and under are free.  \nExhibit free days: \n\nFirst weekends from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. (March 1 & 2\, April 5 & 6\, and May 3 & 4)\nFirst Wednesdays from 4 to 8 p.m. (March 5 and April 2)\nFirst Thursdays from 4 to 8 p.m. (March 6\, April 3\, and May 1)\n\nThe exhibit explores depictions of trains and train infrastructure in American painting during the 19th and 20th centuries. From its emergence as a technological marvel in mid-nineteenth century landscape views to its adoption by artists as a symbol of modern life and industry\, the railroad was a significant motif in several major art movements. \nFeaturing paintings from the Hudson River School to postwar abstraction\, the exhibition considers the impact of the railroad on American art through significant works by Albert Bierstadt\, Thomas Hart Benton\, John Sloan\, Georgia O’Keeffe\, Jacob Lawrence\, George Tooker\, Kay Sage\, and others. Depictions of rail workers and passengers present trains as spaces for distinct forms of social interaction. Other works illuminate the railroad as an engine of modernity\, but also a cause of population displacement\, labor struggles\, and environmental destruction that changed the fabric of American life\, from the urban centers of the East Coast to the Heartland and Pacific Ocean. \nTue–Sun: 10 am–4 pm\nLate until 8 pm on Wed & Thu\nClosed Mon and major holidays

SUMMARY:Les Indes Galantes
DESCRIPTION:The exhibition “Clément Cogitore: Les Indes Galantes” is on display at The Joslyn from Sept. 10 through Feb. 23\, 2025. Working at the intersection of cinema\, photography\, and installation\, Clément Cogitore examines ritual\, collective memory\, and notions of the sacred. “Les Indes Galantes: takes its title and music from a 1735 opera-ballet by French composer Jean-Philippe Rameau. The fourth and final section of the opera is inspired by a meeting in 1725 between six Native American tribal chiefs and King Louis XV\, during which the chiefs performed several traditional dances. Cogitore pairs Rameau’s dramatic Baroque soundtrack with a style of dance born in Los Angeles in the early 1990s known as K.R.U.M.P. Spanning ages\, races\, and ethnicities\, Cogitore’s dancers gather in a circle on a sparsely-lit stage to engage in a “battle\,” a common K.R.U.M.P performance format. The filmmaker captures this scene from multiple vantage points—distant observer\, audience member\, performer—to immerse viewers in this tight-knit dance community. \n

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.
