Charles Willson Peale, his sons, nieces and nephew were artists and naturalists whose portraits, miniatures, still lifes and silhouettes provide an eloquent and detailed chronicle of the most notable people and events of the republic’s early history. In addition to a selection of the family’s Baltimore-related artwork, this focus exhibition explores the origins and continued development of the landmark museum and portrait gallery opened in Baltimore by Rembrandt Peale in 1814, and which now is poised to reopen after restoration as the Peale Center for Baltimore History and Architecture.
The ancient metalworking technique of repoussé, the art of raising ornament in relief from the reverse side, has a rich history.

2015 AIABaltimore Spring Lecture Series: Outliers
This series highlights designers who are answering provocative cultural and socio-political questions, typically explored through the realm of art. Their responses take on many forms and challenge established practice, prompting further dialogue around the impact of design. Through these deviations, we are introduced to alternate avenues of operation and thought, causing us to reflect on the potential they present.
