Annual Henri Zerner Lecture (In-Person): Christiane Baumgartner’s Monumental Woodcuts

https://harvardartmuseums.org/calendar/annual-henri-zerner-lecture-in-person-christiane-baumgartner-s-monumental-woodcuts

This program is sponsored by Harvard’s Department of History of Art and Architecture and the Harvard Art Museums and through the generosity of alumni and friends in establishing the Henri Zerner Lecture Fund.

German artist Christiane Baumgartner is best known for her monumental woodcuts based on her own films, photographs, and video stills. In her lecture, Baumgartner will discuss her recent work, explore aspects of image perception in the graphic arts, and consider how much information we need to be able to “read” an image.

Please note that while face coverings are optional in all other spaces in the Harvard Art Museums, they are required for attendees at all programs in Menschel Hall. The museums will make disposable masks available for visitors who do not bring their own.
