12TH HENRY D. GREEN SYMPOSIUM OF THE DECORATIVE ARTS

Ulysses Grant Dietz, chief curator emeritus of the Newark Museum of Art, delivers the keynote speech, “Go Big AND Go Home: Collecting Regionally While Thinking Nationally,” at the symposium.

Thank you to everyone who attended, sponsored or otherwise made possible the 12th Henry D. Green Symposium of the Decorative Arts, “The Past Made Public: Taking Stock,” held February 2 and 3 at the University of Georgia Center for Continuing Education & Hotel.

This year’s speakers were stellar, and the Georgia Museum of Art’s former curator of decorative arts, Dale L. Couch, was honored with the Henry D. Green Lifetime Achievement Award for his work in the field. The award honors Couch’s lifetime commitment to promoting connoisseurship, scholarship and the next generation of scholars in the decorative arts.
