Write a description of your exhibition [minimum 1000 words] that includes citations and a bibliography of your references in MLA format.

In the Curator Paper, I’d like you to pretend that your Proposal and Bibliography has been accepted by a museum and you’ve now been asked to supply more information about your exhibit, and explain and justify it further. You must use and cite reliable sources within your writing using MLA format. I am including links below that explain how to cite your sources.

Your paper must address the following questions: What works are in your exhibition? What is the theme of the exhibition? How do each of the works you chose fit with that theme? What is the goal of the exhibition – what do you hope your viewers will learn from visiting the show? Also, you should specify how you intend to arrange the works of art, and how you plan for your audience to move through the space. Basically, I want you to write a paper as if you are a curator who is proposing this show to your donor who knows nothing about the artwork.

Your paper must be in essay format and at least 1000 words long in total.

In the first paragraph, called the introduction, you will include:

· thesis statement – which in this case will be your exhibition theme.

· the names of the artists (if known), titles of the works in your exhibition ( italicized every time you use the titles in your paper), dates of the works, and media (if known)

· brief description of each of the works

The body of the paper, broken into at least three paragraphs, will include:

· The context/content/cultural background of each work, and explanation for why that work was chosen / how it fits with the theme.

· Details about how your exhibition is arranged (and why you’ve arranged it in this manner).

· How each object supports the goal of your exhibition, i.e., what you want your audience to learn from the show.

The final paragraph should be a conclusion. Recap your overall plan, restating the theme of the exhibition (your thesis).

Proposal and Bibliography

Threads of the Divine: Sacred Textiles Across Cultures

This exhibit, Threads of the Divine: Sacred Textiles Across Cultures will display three religious art pieces as follows: Goddess Hera Embroidery from Greece, dating 6th century BCE, The Hmong Shaman’s Healing Cloth from Laos, and 20th century Hmong, and the final piece-Darshani Stree Craft, the Indian Pichwai of Lord Krishna from India, 18th century. Each of the pieces describes how textiles can perform functions that signify spiritual, cultural and aesthetic qualities. All beneath one roof, these textiles will allow viewers to contemplate the role of fabric in worship, as well as how people of different cultures regard it as the connecting point between themselves and the divine. A combination of intricate embroidery, vibrant dyed colors, and contextual symbolism will be incorporated within the context of the exhibit to demonstrate the manner in which texts denote not only personal and communal faith. When compared and discussed simultaneously, audiences shall be in a position to appreciate the extend in which textiles have been central in provision of spirituality and people’s identities across different regions of the world.

Bibliography

Looking at goddesses in different myths and folk stories, trying also to emphasize more minor or completely forgotten archetypes. It gives a psychological perception about how various cultures represent God in artworks and icons and how they incorporate symbols such as textiles to commemorate the deities. This source assists in understanding the position of the religious and cultural aspects of the art works in the form of textiles in the exhibition, especially the Goddess Hera embroidery.

Magliveras, Simeon S. "Hmong Textiles, Symmetries, Perception, and Culture." Symmetry, vol. 12, no. 11, 2020, pp. 1829.

In this scholarly article, there is the interpretation of complex patterns and cultural significance within Hmong textiles, with particular emphasis on the Hmong’s view of the world. This offers good context for the importance of the pattern and symbolism of the textiles made by the Hmong people, in particular the Healing Cloth of the Hmong Shaman.

This article surveys the past of one of the most distressed types of Indian textiles, called Pichwai, which presents devotees to the worship of Lord Krishna. The religious, cultural, and spiritual aspects of Pichwai art as used in temples and in the houses of Hindus are also given. This source is relevant for interpreting the use of textiles in Hindu worship, for it describes the characteristics of Pichwai paintings and their significance both in devotion and as ritual artifacts, making it useful when explaining the Indian Pichwai of Lord Krishna in the exhibit.
