    Penn Museum is one of five “Out of Print” cultural partners participating in the city’s Philagrafika 2010 international festival. In this exhibit, artist and museum educator Pablo Helguera presents an installation at the Penn Museum inspired by its history. Titled "What in the World" after a popular 1950s TV program of the same name created by the then-Museum Director Froelich Rainey, the installation includes a display of Museum artifacts, a recreated set from that famous program, and a series of videos that provide an unauthorized biography of the Museum. The exhibit is located on the third floor of the Museum.
