Oral history is a modern research technique involving an interviewee and an informed interviewer in spontaneous conversation. The taped record is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The resulting manuscript is typed in final form, indexed, bound with photographs and illustrative materials, and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ************************************ All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and Kay Sekimachi dated April 16, 1995. The manuscript is thereby made available for research purposes. All literary rights in the manuscript, including the right to publish, are reserved to The Bancroft Library of the University of California, Berkeley.

  • Annual Report Dear Members and Friends
    FY 2012 Annual Report Dear Members and Friends, We launched Fiscal Year 2012 (July 1, 2011 through June 30, 2012) with the Currier’s first video exhibition entitled Shifting Terrain. Organized by Assistant Curator Nina Bozicnik, the exhibition featured nine videos by seven accomplished regional artists, all of whom explored the theme of landscape in distinctive ways. From there, we reflected on the dynamic, turbulent decades of the ‘60s, ‘70s and ‘80s with iconic images in Backstage Pass: Rock and Roll Photography, organized by the Portland Museum of Art, Maine. The FY12 exhibition program celebrated the Currier’s own growing photography collection in a show organized by Kurt Sundstrom, A New Vision: Modernist Photography in Spring 2012. It included more than 103 striking images by Europeans and Americans who IMAGES expanded the boundaries of photography with a new abstracted COVER: A family visits the Museum approach to framing everyday subjects. during Vacation Week and enjoys a Drawing in the Gallery program.

All Rights Reserved. Director’s Welcome For me, Bard Graduate Center’s Quarter-Century Celebration this year was, at its heart, a tribute to our alumni. From our first, astonishing incoming class to our most recent one (which, in a first for BGC, I met over Zoom), our students are what I am most proud of. That first class put their trust in a fledgling institution that burst upon the academic art world to rectify an as-yet-undiagnosed need for a place to train the next generation of professional students of objects. Those beginning their journey this fall now put their trust in an established leader who they expect will prepare them to join a vital field of study, whether in the university, museum, or market. What a difference a generation makes! I am also intensely proud of how seriously BGC takes its obligation to develop next-generation scholarship in decorative arts, design his- tory, and material culture.
