Peace Warriors and Solitudes: Recent Photographs by Carl Chiarenza
As one of the preeminent photographers of the 20th and 21st centuries, Chiarenza (American, born 1935) has influenced not only the practice of art but also the study and promotion of photography inside academia and beyond. This exhibition features photographs from two recent series of abstract works, inspired in part by the artist's reactions to the war in Iraq. Organized by the University of Richmond Museums, the exhibition was curated by N. Elizabeth Schlatter, deputy director and curator of exhibitions, University Museums. 

Chi-Yun: Breath Resonance in Far Eastern Painting
Chi-yun (breath resonance) is the term coined by Hsieh Ho in the sixth century to represent the first law of Chinese painting. The exhibition explores how this 1,500- year-old phrase relates to traditional Chinese and Japanese paintings. Organized by the University of Richmond Museums, the exhibition was curated by Stephen Addiss, Tucker-Boatwright Professor in the Humanities-Art, and professor of art history, University of Richmond.

Transformations: Inuit Sculptures from the Collection
Inuit sculpture is deeply rooted in tradition, steeped in storytelling, and offers a glimpse into the daily lives of the Inuit people. Highlighting the continuity and transformation of the art of the Inuit, the exhibition features a selection of contemporary Inuit sculptures from a recent gift of Virginia A. Arnold to the museum. Organized by the University of Richmond Museums, the exhibition was co-curated by Richard Waller, executive director, University Museums, and Schuyler Swartout, ’11, 2008 Arts and Sciences summer research fellow, University of Richmond.

Hester Bateman, The Queen of Silversmiths: Eighteenth-Century English Silver
Hester Bateman (British, 1709-1794) took over her husband’s metal smithy in Bunhill Row, England, when she became widowed at the age of 51. Working into her eighties, Bateman and her sons built a successful silversmith business known for its spoons, sugar bowls, salt cellars, and teapots. The new installation features a selection of Bateman silver from the recent gift of Mrs. Emma Ziegler Brown to the museum, and several pieces on loan from the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts from a gift from Mrs. E. Claiborne Robins. The installation was co-curated by Richard Waller, executive director, University Museums, and Kristen Malanoski, ’08, history and art history double major, and the 2007-2008 student curatorial assistant, University Museums.
