Scholars to Discuss 'How Queer is Art History?'

- March 17, 2008

WILLIAMSTOWN — The complex and controversial subject of the relationship between homosexuality, queer theory and queer studies, and the discipline of art history will be discussed at the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute on Saturday, April 5, at 5:30 p.m, during the Clark Conversation "How Queer is Art History?"

A group of scholars, considered pioneers of thinking about how sexual identity influences the way people write about art history and the way art is made and understood, met during a two-day colloquium to discuss these topics.

The public conversation will be a summary of scholars' findings; admission to the conversation is free.

Participating  are Flavia Rando of Rutgers University; Jonathan Weinberg, artist and art historian; Deborah Bright of Brown University; Terry Castle of the University of Stanford; Jacqueline Francis of the University of Michigan; James Saslow of City University of New York; James Smalls of the University of Maryland at Baltimore; Catherine Lord of the University of California at Irvine; Richard Meyer of Von KleinSmid Center 351; Christopher Reed of Pennsylvania State University and fellow at the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum Research Center; Anne D'Alleva of the University of Connecticut; Harmony Hammond, Guggenheim fellow, artist, art writer, and independent curator; and Michael Hatt of the University of Warwick. 

The Clark is at 225 South St. The galleries are open Tuesday through Sunday, 10 to 5;  admission is free through May. For more information, call 413-458-2303 or visit www.clarkart.edu
