What is called the imagination (from image, magi, magic, magician, etc.) is a practical vector from the soul. It stores all data, and can be called on to solve all our “problems.” The imagination is the projection of ourselves past our sense of ourselves as “things.” Imagination (image) is all possibility, because from the image, the initial circumscribed energy, any use (idea) is possible. And so begins that image’s use in the world. Possibility is what moves us.

Friends: I had a lovely time at the conference in Johannesburg. I was inspired by the presentations and various conversations with new colleagues and friends. The experience has definitely made me realize the need to collaborate more broadly with curators, artists and scholars to continue to elevate the importance of the work we are doing globally. In the spirit of collaboration, I wanted to pass along some information related to the Stuart A. Rose Library’s fellowship program (see link below).

Best regards,
