The Teaching Gallery is dedicated to exhibiting works from the Museum’s collection with connections to Washington University curricula. Located within the Bernoudy Permanent Collection Gallery, this space offers exciting possibilities for cross-disciplinary dialogue among faculty, students, and the community. Faculty members work with a Kemper Art Museum curator and educator to determine the concept and content of the exhibition. Teaching Gallery exhibitions can be used to supplement courses in a variety of ways, including through art historical analysis, creative writing or research assignments, and interdisciplinary inquiry. Exhibitions are installed for an entire semester to facilitate class visits and student assignments throughout the duration of the course.
Recent Teaching Gallery exhibitions have been organized by faculty in art history, anthropology, classics, East Asian studies, and American studies, among other departments. To learn more about the range of possibilities, please explore the past exhibitions listed below.
Faculty should contact Allison Taylor, manager of education programs, at 314.935.7918 or allison.taylor@wustl.edu to discuss proposals for the Teaching Gallery.
