Art History Graduate Student Symposium 2022-23
Artefacts of Change: Visions of The Environment and Disruptions
Please join us Friday April 21st for our annual Art History Graduate Student symposium, “Artefacts of Change: Visions of the Environment and Disruptions!” The symposium is a hybrid event set to take place from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM in Academic Building 2400 and online. We are glad to welcome Dr. Sugata Ray as our keynote speaker.
Human experience of the natural world is integral to artistic production. Amidst the ongoing climate crisis, art historical discourse has focused on the human-nature relationship with more urgency. Employing ecocritical methodologies and perspectives, recent scholarship investigates visual vocabularies and material cultures that express historical conceptions of nature and ecology. “Artefacts of Change” aims to foster interdisciplinary conversations on entanglements and tensions between human communities and their lived environments.
