  • Annual Report for the Year 2003–2004
    2003–2004 ANNUAL REPORT SAM Students with Sanislo Feast SAM CONNECTS ART TO LIFE CONTEMPORARY CHINESE ARTIST LI JIN’S A FEAST made a permanent impression on the fourth- and fifth-grade students at Sanislo Elementary School. Inspired by the fifty-nine- foot-long painting depicting food from a traditional Chinese dinner on a background of recipes written in Chinese calligraphy, the students set out to re-create their own version. Art teachers Ruth Winter and Carolyn Autenrieth designed the project to celebrate the diversity of cultures at their school. Students painted their favorite ethnic foods, and staff helped transcribe the recipes into the students’ original languages. On display at the Seattle Asian Art Museum last spring, the students’ work, Sanislo Feast, a fifty-foot-long art scroll portraying food and languages from seventeen different nations and cultures, reflected the heritage of Sanislo students and staff. Students, families and teachers commemorated the unveiling of their “masterpiece” with a special celebration at SAAM. cover: Li Jin, China, born 1958, A Feast, 2001, ink on Xuan paper, 39 3/8 x 708 5/8 in., Courtesy of the artist and CourtYard Gallery, Beijing right: Wolfgang Groschedel and Kunz Lochner, Equestrian armor for Philip II, ca. 1554, etched steel and gold, Patrimonio Nacional, Real Armería, Madrid SEATTLE ART MUSEUM TABLE OF CONTENTS 1 Director’s Letter 17 Betty Bowen Award 2 Board of Trustees 18 Reaching Out to Youth & Families 3 Broadening, Deepening, Diversifying 19 Teaching and Learning 4–5 One Museum, Three

  • Making Measurements and Using Testing Tools for Specific Properties of Gem Materials Gemstones Are Very Small and Hold Concentra
    Making Measurements and Using Testing Tools for Specific Properties of Gem Materials Gemstones are very small and hold concentrated wealth. To correctly identify a cut gemstone may in some instances be much harder than trying to identify a piece of rough material. Many gemstone crystals in rough materials have characteristic crystal shape, cleavage, or fracture, but often you can’t see these properties in cut materials — color, density, luster, reflectivity, heat conduction, magnification, and optical properties are ways to look at cut stones non-destructively and identify them. In this lab we will work with some larger stones and make measurements, Such measurements will be applied to specific stones when we learn gems in a systematic way (as we did with minerals) doing individual groups in labs devoted to them. But for now our goal is to learn the instrumentation, including the names and the parts of the instruments. Importantly, we will learn how to handle the testing equipment in a consistent and practical way so as to avoid any damage to either gemstones or to the testing equipment. Measuring gemstones includes their dimensions, weight (or mass), and describing their color, etc. It is sometimes important in their identification as well, a too heavy feeling gem may not be what it appears to be! Weighing Gemstones First 1 gram is 1/1000 (one one thousandth of a kilogram). The kilogram is defined by a piece of metal held in a laboratory in France. However, a gram is also defined as a milliliter of water at 4oC. These measurement units are part of the International System of Units (abbreviated SI from French: Système international d'unités).

The lead article in this issue examines the history, sources, and gemological characteristics of these diamonds, as well as their distinctive color appearance. Rela- tionships between their color, clarity, and other properties were derived from hundreds of samples—including such famous blue diamonds as the Hope and the Blue Heart (or Unzue Blue)—that were studied at the GIA Gem Trade Laboratory over the past several years.
