I only got involved near the end with one of the smaller venues, but
museums and galleries in SC did a 2 year series of exhibits that were
promoted together as Views from the Edge of the Century, including things
like SC Clay, 100 Years/100 Artists: Views of the 20th Century in SC
Art . . . I can't remember everything that was involved . . . maybe there
is someone on this list who knows more.  I know there was major funding
from the SC Humanities Council and various other sources.  There was also
some curatorial collaboration on certain exhibits, although I don't think
there was much of an effort to have some kind of huge guiding mission.

Question: In Susan M. Pearce's book Museums, Objects, Collections, she
repeatedly mentions the Cambridge material culture theorists as important.
Does anyone know the names of the people she is referring to?
