What is time? Is it a scientific phenomenon that can be universally measured and catalogued? Or do different cultures interpret time in their own unique ways? In this online exhibition for the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, visitors can explore the concept of time in works of art dating from 900 BCE to the present. In “World Times” they can journey through time and space to examine works and the stories behind them. In “Conservation Time,” they can examine time’s impact on the creative process and on conservation. A third section, “20th Century Time,” was based on loaned objects and closed at the end of 2000. It explored the concept of time as expressed by 20th century artists.
