Dr. Roger Rothman, The Samuel H. Kress Chair and Assistant Professor of Art History at Bucknell University
Dali's Femininity
Distinguished Speaker Series
Friday, April 18 at 4:30 pm
Zimmerli Mulitpurpose Room
Dr. Rothman has published articles on Cubism, Dadaism, and Surrealism, and is currently completing a book Salvador Dalí's fascination with the minute. Abstract: This talk argues that Salvador Dalí’s anachronistic technique – his commitment to the styles of the Old Masters – was performed, in part, at the service of a subversive reconceptualization of gender and the gendered discourse of the avant-garde. Using Kaja Silverman’s analysis of masochism and male subjectivity, the paper argues that Dalí’s work abjures the sadism exploited by the vast majority of Surrealists in favor of a feminized masculinity in line with the paradoxes of masochistic subjectivity.

Certificate in Historic Preservation - Open to the Public, All are welcome
Wednesday, November 7 at 4:30 pm
Voorhees Hall, Room 104, College Avenue Campus
It is common knowledge that one of the hallmarks of many great projects is that there was a great client. Landscape Architects often are quick to mention them and their import to their successful work. Patronage however, is much rarer, as the patron engages a professional/artist to explore things that the designer/artist is interested in, often coinciding with the patron’s own interests. Patronage can be financial and other support, often over an extended period of time, for the artist to purse their vision first. In exploring this difference, this paper will bridge design and historic preservation disciplines – from the scholars who do not step outside of the building envelope, to the landscape architect who views history as restrictive, and not as a foundation, or point of departure. To frame this discussion, this paper will include such case studies as Bok Tower Sanctuary, Vizcaya, Biltmore, and Columbus, IN; not to mention the built works of Olmsted, Jensen and Kiley. The motivation and inspiration of these built works will also be considered in the context of present-day donor-driven naming opportunities, but also how we, upon our evaluation of this legacy, assign significance. In sum, a startling trend will be revealed – one that should be revisited and reversed -- like the hand of the landscape architect, who has in the past been invisible and is overshadowed by the “starchitect” the patron too has been marginalized.

Clemente Marconi, James R. McCredie Professor of Greek Art and Archaeology Institute of Fine Arts
The birth of an image: The painting of a statue of Herakles and Greek theories of representation in the Classical period.
Dinstinguished Speakers Series
Thursday, May 3 at 4:30 pm
Jane Voorhees Zimmerli Art Museum
Abstract: This paper addresses the problem of self-reference and quotation in Archaic and Classical Greek Art, by focusing on the interpretation of an Apulian krater in New York (MMA 50.11.4) dated 380-370 BCE. This vase shows on one side a statue painter working in encaustic technique at the finishing of a marble statue of Herakles that is being set up in a sanctuary. A series of gods are watching this scene: Zeus, Nike, and Herakles himself, who is entering the sanctuary and staring bewildered at the finishing of his own statue. Thus far, discussions of this scene have focused on the technical aspects of the painting process of the statue (von Bothmer and Brinkmann), on the political meaning of the representation within the context of Italiote politics of the Early Fourth Century (Todisco), or, finally, on the allegorical meaning of the vase in relation to South Italian beliefs in immortality during the Late Classical Period (De Cesare). This paper, instead, investigates the problem of the relation between representation and represented—the statue of Herakles and the living Herakles—within the context of Archaic and Classical representations of statues of gods and Late Classical theories of representation.
