RUSSIA\'S RICH CULTURAL HERITAGE is complimented by a unique emphasis
that Russians place on history and education. This has helped Russia
produce one of the world's most extensive museum systems, one
well-known for not only for IMPRESSIVE COLLECTIONS but also THEMATIC
VERSATILITY, MULTIPLICITY OF DISPLAY MODES, and SHEER NUMBER of
institutions. With private and public support, many of Russia's
museums are being modernized and new museums are being established.
Russians have also supported this as some of the world's most avid
MUSEUM ENTHUSIASTS.=20
ART AND MUSEUMS IN RUSSIA seeks to understand the Russian museum
phenomenon and covers wide subject matter. Topics include: the history
of collecting, the "museumification" of historic and cultural sites,
museum operations (including storage facilities, restoration labs,
exhibition curation, education, and development), integration of
technology and interactivity, and museum educational work.=20
ART AND MUSEUMS IN RUSSIA is for students looking to understand not
only Russia's cultural and historical heritage, but also how cultural
and historical heritage can be best preserved and transmitted. Over an
INTENSIVE THREE WEEKS in BEAUTIFUL ST. PETERSBURG, Russia, we will
take a behind-the-scenes look at the HERMITAGE MUSEUM, and explore a
plethora of others including educational museums at schools of higher
learning, scientific museums, museums of ethnography, memorial
apartment museums, literary museums, political history museums, and
more.=20

"I believe I have grown as a person and as an artist. I believe that
completing this program means that I no longer have to be afraid of
being an artist. I know that I can tell future potential employers
about how I studied art for a month in Russia and that it doesn't just
mean that my portfolio stands out because I went abroad when maybe
others didn't. I went to a place that the art world considers neither
Western nor Eastern. I went to a place where history and art are
inescapable and frequently influence one another. A place where the
past is never forgotten, but the present is lively and active. A place
that has known both extremes of decadence and deprivation, and can,
therefore, find beauty in both. I went to the place beyond everything
the world thinks it knows about art: Russia." -- Emily Lovitch, 2013 =20
