October 14, 2017

Please join the Index for a symposium and reception marking the centennial of our founding in 1917. Presentations by eight leading scholars will demonstrate the expansiveness and versatility with which art historians today approach what we continue to call “iconographic studies” and consider where the study of image and meaning will take the field in future years.

Speakers:

Madeline Caviness, Tufts University
Beatrice Kitzinger, Princeton University
Aden Kumler, University of Chicago
Chris Lakey, Johns Hopkins University
Karen Overbey, Tufts University
Glenn Peers, University of Texas
Jennifer Purtle, University of Toronto
