Summary
100 Treasures / 100 Emotions' celebrates the inauguration of the Macquarie University History Museum Sydney, NSW, Australia. This entirely new volume focuses on 100 works from a vast collection of 15,000 objects, to highlight the new museum's focus on social history and the human condition beyond the borders of space and time. This story is told through a mixture of short essays and colour plates of 100 selected objects drawn from across five continents and over the course of 5,000 years. These objects - ranging from fragments of an ancient Egyptian Book of the Dead, to a WWI era Turkish Star medal - have been chosen by Museum staff and Macquarie scholars to achieve a representative and rigorously researched survey of human experience and creativity over five millennia. Professor Martin Bommas, edits short essays on each of the 100 selected objects by a broad range of academic authors, complemented by entirely new photography of the objects commissioned from award-winning photographer Effy Alexakis.
