28th annual graduate symposium
The Art History Graduate Student Associate invites community members along with University of Arizona students, faculty, and staff to join us for our 28th Annual Graduate Symposium.
Graduate presentations will be held at the University of Arizona Museum of Art, and focus on the relationship between art history, the art object, and taboo from broad global and historical perspectives. Our symposium will feature a keynote presentation by Dr. Richard Meyer, Robert and Ruth Halperin Professor in Art History at Stanford University, which will be held in the Center for Creative Photography following the graduate presentations.
This project has been made possible by the Graduate and Professional Student Council, School of Art, Quinn Fund, and donors to the College of Fine Arts Fund for Excellence.
This event is free and open to the public.
