1934 Peter Harholdt, BMW, R7 Concept Motorcycle. Art Deco.

BMW’s sleek, streamlined, one-of-a-kind R7 Concept Motorcycle appeared at major shows in Germany in 1934, then was crated up and lost until it was discovered in 2005, and restored by BMW craftsmen. Highly advanced for its day, with a pressed steel frame and full bodywork, the R7 is a remarkable survivor—and a bike that was well before its time.

Passages in American Art is a fundamental reinterpretation of the PMA collection, platforming multiple voices, revealing new ways of looking at some of the museum’s most beloved works of art, and inviting community members to drive the conversation.

The project examines the existing collection, and along with recent acquisitions, commissions, and select long-term loans, integrates Atlantic narratives and Indigenous perspectives to expand the story of American art.

I had the privilege of experiencing the the Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art's Weaving Data exhibit. The combination and contrast of the human sewn elements with the automated jacquard portions to be very insightful to me. I highly recommend this exhibit as it moved me on a personal level. There were many pieces I did not include as I want to encourage as many people as possible to attend.
