Art museum curator’s work recognized

jcsmhome-headerDennis Harper, curator of collections and exhibitions at the Jule Collins Smith Museum of Fine Art, is holding a one-person exhibition at the Valeria McCullough Murphey Art Gallery at Wesleyan College in Macon, Ga., March 18-April 29. A selection of Harper's recent and older egg tempera paintings will be displayed in the exhibition. According to the Society of Egg Tempera Painters, egg tempera is a painting process that uses egg yolk to bind pigments. The artist must manufacture the paints him or herself by the simple process of mixing finely ground pigment, water and dilute egg yolk. Harper came to Auburn in March 2008 from the Georgia Museum of Art, where he was curator of exhibitions. Before residing in Georgia he was employed as collections manager at Wildenstein and Co. in New York City for eight years. For more information about exhibition, contact the Murphey Gallery, Wesleyan College, at (478) 757-5189.

    I have been browsing online more than 3 hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours. It is pretty worth enough for me. In my opinion, if all website owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the internet will be much more useful than ever before.
