Bøker av Marla C. Berns

This lavishly illustrated volume, demonstrating the scope and depth of the vast and remarkable global collections of the Fowler Museum at ucla, has been produced as part of the ongoing celebration of the institutionΓÇÖs fiftieth-anniversary year. It recalls many of the highlights of the MuseumΓÇÖs formation, focusing not only on collections development but also on a long history of programmatic innovation. The book begins with an essay by the MuseumΓÇÖs director, Marla C. Berns, which sketches the FowlerΓÇÖs history, and this is followed by a section reproducing in color and large format 250 stunning works from the collection. BernsΓÇÖs lengthy history of involvement with the Fowler - which began when she worked for the Museum as a graduate intern while pursuing her doctorate at UCLA - and the innovative strategies she has introduced, have uniquely situated her to author this book.
