| | Since kicking off our online events in March, we have enjoyed wonderful conversations about art—with audience members from all over the world as well as from around the corner. In this season of giving thanks, we are thankful for all who have participated and who have given feedback to help us refine and craft our public programs. It’s truly been a collaborative effort! This week, read how our Student Guides have channeled their creativity while studying remotely. Check out our calendar for upcoming tours—the last for 2020 is on December 5—as well as our other online programs. As always, our programs are free and open to everyone. This week on Harvard Art Museums from Home: On November 30, we are proud to partner with Visual AIDS for Day With(out) Art 2020 by presenting TRANSMISSIONS, a special live event on Zoom featuring six new videos that consider the impact of HIV and AIDS beyond the United States. The program will also be available to view online on Tuesday, December 1. Our popular collaboration with the Arnold Arboretum of Harvard University is back! This online event on December 1 takes a close look at Japanese black pine, both in the living landscape and in art from our Painting Edo exhibition. In an upcoming Art Talk Live event on Thursday December 3, join curator Mary Schneider Enriquez as she examines Doris Salcedo’s Untitled, a work that gives voice to silent victims of violence. There’s still time to register for the Art Study Center Seminar on Friday, December 4, when curator Sarah Laursen will share the stories behind three golden Chinese plaques. Congratulations to photography curator Makeda Best on her book Elevate the Masses: Alexander Gardner, Photography, and Democracy in Nineteenth-Century America, published by Penn State University Press. |
