In 2022 the International Quilt Museum (IQM) at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln celebrates a quarter century of studying, preserving, and exhibiting the Ardis and Robert James Collection. The Jameses' donation of their unparalleled one-thousand-piece collection in 1997 established the IQM and formed the solid base from which the museum has steadily grown. Today, the museum's collection includes more than six thousand quilts from five different centuries and over fifty countries, an expansion that has been encouraged by the James family, who continue to support the museum's efforts to represent global quiltmaking. This companion publication to the exhibition An Evolving Vision, 1997-2022 highlights important pieces from various segments of the collection: Classics--stunning antique American quilts; From the Studio--early and innovative art pieces; and New Horizons--quilt traditions from around the world. This book also includes a comprehensive catalog of the James Collection, comprising the quilts from the original 1997 gift as well as important groups given to the IQM in 2006 and 2009. An Evolving Vision documents the significance of the James Collection and underscores the broad vision its collectors developed not only for themselves but for the museum they so vitally helped shape
