Celebrating 50 Fabulous Years
with America's Favorite Doll - Barbie

November 14, 2009 to December 2010

Her name is universal. Her style is impeccable. Her image is iconic. Her world is a decade of dreams spanning 50 years of sensational style and luxurious living.

Who else could we be describing other than the one, the only, the beloved Barbie®!

In November 2009 the Toy & Miniature Museum presented their collection of America’s favorite doll, a collaboration of items loaned to the exhibit by collectors, transforming the Museum halls into a mecca of all that is Barbie®. Explore her life of splendor and the evolution of the world’s most iconic toy, bringing joy and imaginative play into the lives of children across the globe.

Acquisitions in Context: Marc Swanson

August 20 to December 12


Marc Swanson, Untitled (Looking Back Buck), 2004;
crystals, polyurethane foam, adhesive, 38 x 18 x 18 inches;
Private collection, New York, New York.

As part of the Kemper Museum’s partnership with DST Systems, Inc., this exhibition focuses on the work of American sculptor Marc Swanson. The exhibition’s works provide context for a newly commissioned sculpture by Swanson that pays homage to the American buffalo or bison, the majestic beast of the American West. Reminiscent of a skeleton one might find at a natural history museum, the new acquisition—the third in the DST Systems, Inc., and Kemper Museum partnership—will be installed later this fall at the northeast corner of Ninth and Broadway in downtown Kansas City.
