SUMMARY:Announcing the Emile H. Mathis Art Gallery Winter Exhibitions!
DESCRIPTION:Opening Reception: November 19\, 5-7pm\nExhibition runs November 23\, 2026 – February 25\, 2027 \nContaining Culture: Snuff Bottles and Global Exchange\nUsing a group of snuff bottles in the UWM Art Collection as a starting point\, Containing Culture reveals the complex global networks of tobacco production\, trade\, and usage. As this exhibition demonstrates\, snuff bottles are not simply substance containers. They are mobile and malleable manifestations of global exchange\, cultural identification\, and social currency. \nExhibition organized by Mathis Art Gallery staff and graduate students in ARTHIST 704: Museum Studies II. \nConsuming Culture: Intoxicants in British Caricature\nIntoxicants – substances that alter one’s sense of control\, judgment\, speech\, or actions – were pervasive in eighteenth-century British culture and customs. Intoxicants like alcohol and tobacco were widely consumed across society\, prompting vigorous debates about what should be consumed\, where\, and by whom. \nConsuming Culture investigates intoxicants in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century British caricature. Works by artists like William Hogarth\, James Gillray\, and Thomas Rowlandson reveal the ways in which these substances were entangled with complicated issues around class\, gender\, politics\, and space. As these prints demonstrate\, intoxicants were fluid signifiers that both reinforced and challenged social hierarchies\, political order\, and the pretensions of polite society. Curated by Leigh Mahlik\, Academic Curator\, UWM Art Collection and Galleries. \nEvent and exhibitions are free and open to the public.
