Sobre IBD

'Caitlin Johnson’s curated observations eavesdrop on history while reminding us we have not progressed much beyond the past she examines.' [Ken Czarnomski, visual artist]'Amateur Hour at the History Museum goes on a journey through all of human history, through enduring myths, known facts, and the longing to reach into the past that we have all experienced for one reason or another--whether to give someone a piece of our mind, to take a piece of someone else’s, or just to find out what happened.' [Maureen Keathley, BFA, MA]
