Anthropology graduate student Lauren Kiesewetter\u2019s nametag has a big red sticker that reads: \u201cAsk me about my favorite weapon!\u201d<\/p>\n

Currently \u2013 her favorite changes every week, she jokes \u2013 it\u2019s a piece of Indonesian armor crafted from parrotfish scales.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe human ingenuity that went into that, and the time and artistry, is amazing,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

The same can be said for almost every item filling the cases in the Milwaukee Public Museum\u2019s \u201cWeapons: Beyond the Blade\u201d<\/a> exhibit. Opened in October, the display features 188 artifacts from 50 countries that explore the history, purpose and cultural significance behind all kinds of weaponry.<\/p>\n

\u201cWeapons are some of the most provocative items that have shaped history,\u201d said Dawn Scher Thomae, the curator of collections at the Milwaukee Public Museum as well as the co-coordinator of the 51ÁÔÆæ museum studies graduate certificate.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>\u201cWeapons: Beyond the Blade\u201d is the brainchild of Scher Thomae, herself a graduate of 51ÁÔÆæ\u2019s master\u2019s degree program in anthropology, but it was born with a lot of help, much of it from an army of interns that included dozens of 51ÁÔÆæ undergraduate and graduate students. An entire class from the museum studies graduate certificate cohort even worked on the exhibit as part of their coursework.<\/p>\n

Putting everything together was quite an undertaking. For almost two years, Scher Thomae and her team considered more than 3,000 artifacts for display. They researched in detail the backgrounds of each weapon that made it through the five rounds of elimination to be included in the final display.<\/p>\n

The students \u201cdid a great amount of object research,\u201d Scher Thomae said. \u201cWe discussed it and I pushed them to ask, \u2018What was going on at the time that humans needed these weapons? What was it made of? Who donated it to the museum?\u2019 They also worked with me on exhibit evaluations and to develop public programs. Everyone who interns with me does real work that has measurable outcomes.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kiesewetter, for instance, was part of a team that contributed to a section in the exhibit that challenges visitors to think about weapons in popular culture. From the Olympics (sports include shooting, archery and fencing) to playing cards (the king of diamonds wields an ax and the other three kings carry swords), weaponry is ubiquitous.<\/p>\n

Kiesewetter helped to compile the research and distill it into panels that quiz viewers about how and why weapons appear in everything from literature to advertising. As she hopes to work in a museum after she graduates, the experience has been invaluable.<\/p>\n

\u201cJust getting your foot in the door here (at the Milwaukee Public Museum) is a way to open up your opportunities,\u201d Kiesewetter said.<\/p>\n

Inside the exhibit<\/h3>\n

The first display inside \u201cWeapons: Beyond the Blade\u201d is an actual blade \u2013 a Chinese dao. Beside the sword is a label asking viewers how they think about weapons. Is a sword just a tool of violence, or could it have deeper meanings as a piece of art or a status symbol?<\/p>\n

Further inside, weapons of all sorts, from Argentinian bolas to a European suit of armor, are on display. The descriptions of each item are listed on signs just outside of the cases so that nothing distracts from the weapons themselves. These were specifically created to harm others, and Scher Thomae doesn\u2019t shy away from headings like \u201cBlunt Force Trauma\u201d to describe a wahaika from New Zealand used in hand-to-hand fighting.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I first walked through the exhibit, I was shocked at the size of it all,\u201d admitted Armando Manresa, a 51ÁÔÆæ anthropology major and another of Scher Thomae\u2019s interns.<\/p>\n

Like Kiesewetter, Manresa\u2019s internship includes interpreting select weapons for the public. Periodically he will take a few items that did not make the cut and show them to visitors, like a Ngala execution sword from the Congo or obsidian flakes used in a macuahuitl, a fierce Aztec club.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe majority of these [weapons] are all from the Milwaukee Public Museum collection,\u201d said Manresa. \u201cIt\u2019s incredible seeing the pieces that didn\u2019t make it into the exhibit.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWeapons: Beyond the Blade\u201d has received an overwhelmingly positive response from the public, according to Scher Thomae. She\u2019s gratified that the display has inspired people to look at weapons in a new light. Conversations about modern-day violence have a historical context, she stresses.<\/p>\n

\u201c[Weapons] are an important topic now as they were in the past. The exhibit does not sensationalize violence but offers an opportunity to explore how weapons evolved all over the world. It\u2019s something that few people talk about.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWeapons: Beyond the Blade\u201d runs through Jan. 1.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
