Abstract:
The Prudhoe Lion, its symbolism, and its creation are detailed. The Prudhoe Lion was commissioned by Pharaoh Amenhotep III to decorate the processional avenue of his jubilee temple at Soleb, downstream from the Third Cataract in Upper Nubia, Sudan. The lion and several other monumental sculptures from Egypt are currently on display as part of a new exhibition on loan from the British Museum. The Prudhoe Lion, a statue of King Tutankhamun, and a statue of Amenhotep III all have the history of their creation, their importance, and their acquisition described.

Abstract:
A new exhibit by the Museum presents 23 large-scale photographs by a diverse group of contemporary photographs who are expanding the size and pushing the boundaries of photography. The photographs include portraits, landscapes, cityscapes, and fabricated worlds and all are unusually large in size. The exhibition addresses the themes of personal identity, fantastic narratives, environmental issues, the changing landscape of cities, systems of power, the passage of time, and images of contemporary life.
