The mission of The Chipstone Foundation is to promote and enhance appreciation and knowledge of American material culture (emphasizing the decorative arts) by scholars, students and the general public.
They do this through various means, some of which are publications (Ceramics in America and American Furniture) and also videos posted on ArtBabble.
Ceramics in America and American Furniture offer excellent online articles. Click on the journal you would like to explore, and separate issues are posted with articles.

One of the many ways Chipstone Foundation reaches out to the decorative arts, material culture and cultural history communities is through ArtBabble. ArtBabble is a cloud based video hosting service for art content and has been called the “YouTube of the Arts”.

“‘The audacity of Christian art: The problem of painting Christ’ is a seven-part series in which Dr Chloë Reddaway, Howard and Roberta Ahmanson Curator in Art and Religion at the National Gallery, explores the theological and artistic challenges involved in painting Christ as fully human and fully divine, and reveals some of the ingenious and surprising ways in which Renaissance artists responded.”

This video “is a wonderful 6 to 7 minute interview with Lutter and the folks from LACMA and includes some nice graphics on the pinhole camera/Camera Obscura that she builds and uses.

“I happened to catch this film on pbs this week & it helped me appreciate the sacredness of Native American objects & the power of talking or not talking about these objects.”
From your colleague Jan Lysen, a series of videos covering the different eras on the Japanese timeline, “Little Art Talks”:
“An extraordinary loan from the Minneapolis Institute of Arts, this work represents Pierre Bonnard’s dining room, along with his wife and cats, at his country house in Vernonnet, a small town outside of Paris on the Seine River. Rather than painting from life, Bonnard created the work entirely from memory, foregrounding his subjective responses over an optical experience of the interior and landscape.”
