SUMMARY:Mapping Brasil
DESCRIPTION:In Mapping Brasil\, an exhibit in conjunction with the 2026 Maps & America: the Arthur Holzheimer Lecture Series\, the American Geographical Society Library investigates cartographic traditions and innovations in Brazil. From colonial-era maps to counter-mapping projects in Rio\, explore the ways cartographers have and continue to make sense of the nation on multiple scales. The key to this exhibit is the exploration of who is making these maps and for what purpose. Colonial exploration and exploitation\, economic resources\, and community empowerment are all represented in this snapshot of Brazil’s mapping past\, present\, and future.\n\nMapping Brasil is on view now through Aug. 14 in the American Geographical Society Library on the third floor in the west wing of the Golda Meir Library. The exhibit is free and open to the public.\n\nVisit StoryMaps to view the digital exhibit companion for Mapping Brasil.

SUMMARY:A Polychromatic Proposition
DESCRIPTION:Owen Jones\, Chromolithography\, and the Decorative Arts in the Nineteenth Century\nShowcasing Special Collections’ collection of design portfolios and decorative-arts books of the late nineteenth century\, this exhibition celebrates chromolithographic printing alongside design propositions from the mid-19th century The Grammar of Ornament by noted British architect and designer Owen Jones (1809-1874). Large portfolios that claim to examine decoration from all cultures and all time periods mingle with ephemera highlighting the ubiquity of chromolithography during its period of dominance in printing. \nCurated by Special Collections Graduate Intern Amanda Haag\, A Polychromatic Proposition: Owen Jones\, Chromolithography\, and the Decorative Arts in the Nineteenth Century is on view through May 20 in the fourth floor exhibition gallery at the Golda Meir Library.

SUMMARY:Special Collections Graduate Intern Exhibits
DESCRIPTION:Now through May 21\, patrons can visit the Special Collections reading room to view exhibits curated by UWM Art History graduate students Kate Lytvynenko and Olivia Young\, who spent their spring 2026 fieldwork experience in Special Collections.\n\nLytvynenko’s exhibit showcases her interest in Ukrainian art\, history\, and culture\, and her selections offer a perspective of Ukraine as viewed through the lens of those who would control it\, highlighting the history of that country’s long struggle for sovereignty. Young’s focus is on the Pre-Raphaelites and late 19th-/early 20th-century European art — her exhibit presents turn-of-the-century decorative trade book covers by some of the most noted designers of the time. Both exhibits demonstrate some of the many lines of inquiry that can be followed through the original printed sources preserved in Special Collections.\n\nSpecial Collections is located on the fourth floor of the Golda Meir Library and is open Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
