From Medium to Meaning: Critical Perspectives in Art History
A Monthly Lecture Series at Goucher College
What can a material say? How do artists use their mediums to express memory, identity, power, and protest?
In From Medium to Meaning, this monthly lecture series explores the art historical, cultural, and political contexts of diverse artistic practices. Spanning ancient funerary art to contemporary installation, the series centers close looking, material exploration, and critical analysis—connecting past to present, the classroom to the gallery, and the personal to the collective.
