Description
Free and open to the public! This year’s Mark Roskill Symposium in Art History includes a lecture, panel discussion, and exhibition tour that will illuminate the ways in which a shared history of curiosity, collection, and categorization influences, informs, or problematizes our study of art and science. (Keynote talk and panel: 4-5:30 PM. Tour at the University Museum of Contemporary Art: 6-6:30 PM. Reception to follow.)
