Forecasting Cultural Heritage Protection

In collaboration with the Walker Institute of the University of South Carolina, the CMA welcomed Dr. James Bezjian for a lecture inspired by the historic artwork in Reverent Ornament: Art from the Islamic World. Bezjian illustrates how initiatives like the Army Monuments Officers program — whose members are considered modern-day “Monuments Men,” a reference to the special task force that protected art and artifacts during World War II — can forecast for problems related to cultural heritage before they happen and create contingency plans for those circumstances.
