Speechless: Text & Image in Global Culture

This exhibition is a fascinating look at how aesthetics and artist’s materials, combined with various alphabets from diverse cultures and eras, have for millennia supported religious, political and socio-cultural agendas. It is drawn from the Harn’s five collecting areas and was co-curated just before the pandemic by Harn curators Susan Cooksey (now retired) and Carol McCusker. 

Join us at the museum galleries after hours for Museum Nights: Beyond Words.
