  2. A message from Emma Nardi,
    President of the International Council of Museums – ICOM.

    The museum is no longer just a place for specialists, but an element of communication and progress for all citizens. Museums exhibit collections, but also establish a dialogue on sustainable development, preserve tradition, and open new debates regarding diversity and decolonisation

  3. They tell me it is international museum day, so I figured I'd celebrate by posting this essay from May of 2020. The Philadelphia Museum of art had reopened its new galleries of European Art in March. I'd popped in for a quick look, figuring I'd be back for a leisurely visit, but then the pandemic hit and the city closed down

    By May I was desperate for something to write about, but I remembered the new galleries. So I interviewed the curator over the phone from my memory of a 20 minute visit two months earlier. Years later, we chatted again about Mary Cassatt, but that first interview was a highlight in sad times.

  8. Today's #MythologyMonday is celebrating #InternationalMuseumDay with talk about mythological art in museums :)

    One of my favorite museums in the world is the Villa Giulia in Rome. It houses the National Etruscan Museum. It falls outside most quick tour routes, and it is a lovely, peaceful, elegant museum with a very rich collection.

    See the pretty vases below, with various mythological scenes :) Recongize them?

  9. I thoroughly enjoyed my visit to the Birmingham Museum of Art in #birminghamalabama In particular, the Italian and French Medieval and Renaissance collection. We only had an hour to spend but could have stayed much longer. 💜

  29. For #internationalmuseumday I bring you my #Lego #Museum display at #Brickresales #Brisbane. It's not the best picture.
    Starting at the top, we have a 1:1 scale baby mosasaur, not scaled human skeleton, trilobite, and ankylosaurus and two "rock fossils" at the very back of a different trilobite and prawn thing haha. None of those are designed by me.
    The next shelf is some duplo builds and some of the 3 in 1 dinosaur sets.
    The third and fourth shelf are my Lego museum. All my designs.
    Enjoy
