Holbrook's Trunk

Thursday, January 21, 2010

Sweet!



See if you can guess what materials Julia Chiang constructed this installation piece out of before you click through to find out. Hint: she would have been right at home in our rings exhibition.

The Georgia Museum of Art


The Georgia Museum of Art, the official state museum of art, strives to fulfill the legacy of its founder, Alfred Heber Holbrook, who was so dedicated to promoting the importance of art that he would load paintings into the trunk of his car and take off around the state. His impulse to sing the praises of the visual arts—in as relatable a way as possible—still drives us and this weekly blog today. Visit our website at georgiamuseum.org.
