The essential guide to the holdings of one of America's most venerable museums Published on the occasion of the museum's 125th anniversary, the Carnegie Museum of Art Collection Handbookfeatures images of more than 200 works from the collection and essays by museum staff, past and present, that reveal the stories behind their creation and acquisition. Color images of previously unpublished archival materials trace the history of the museum from the late 19th century--when founder Andrew Carnegie established the Carnegie Institute and inaugurated the Carnegie International exhibition series, with the aim of bringing the "Old Masters of tomorrow" to Pittsburgh--to the present day. This updated guide to the museum's collection features works that will be well known to museum visitors and more recent acquisitions that lay the groundwork for another century of pioneering exhibitions. Artists include: Berenice Abbott, Dawoud Bey, Pierre Bonnard, Louise Bourgeois, Stan Brakhage, Mary Cassatt, Robert Seldon Duncanson, Nicole Eisenman, Jean-Léon Gérôme, Zaha Hadid, Charles "Teenie" Harris, Mike Kelley, Karen Kilimnik, Kerry James Marshall, Henri Matisse, Duane Michals, Julie Mehretu, Marc Newson, Lorraine O'Grady, Charlotte Perriand, Camille Pissarro, Postcommodity, Auguste Rodin, Paul Rudolph, Bernard Tschumi, Andy Warhol, Gillian Wearing, Franz West, James Abbott McNeill Whistler and Lynette Yiadom-Boakye.

Visitor participation is a hot topic in the contemporary world of museums, art galleries, science centers, libraries and cultural organizations. How can your institution do it and do it well? The Participatory Museum is a practical guide to working with community members and visitors to make cultural institutions more dynamic, relevant, essential places. Museum consultant and exhibit designer Nina Simon weaves together innovative design techniques and case studies to make a powerful case for participatory practice. "Nina Simon's new book is essential for museum directors interested in experimenting with audience participation on the one hand and cautious about upending the tradition museum model on the other. In concentrating on the practical, this book makes implementation possible in most museums. More importantly, in describing the philosophy and rationale behind participatory activity, it makes clear that action does not always require new technology or machinery. Museums need to change, are changing, and will change further in the future. This book is a helpful and thoughtful road map for speeding such transformation." -Elaine Heumann Gurian, international museum consultant and author of Civilizing the Museum "This book is an extraordinary resource. Nina has assembled the collective wisdom of the field, and has given it her own brilliant spin. She shows us all how to walk the talk. Her book will make you want to go right out and start experimenting with participatory projects." -Kathleen McLean, participatory museum designer and author of Planning for People in Museum Exhibitions "I predict that in the future this book will be a classic work of museology." --Elizabeth Merritt, founding director of the Center for the Future of Museums
