Broken Statues, Broken Connections
Sunday, November 20 | 2-3 pm
MAG Auditorium
| | |
|
In this opening lecture for Striking Power: Iconoclasm in Ancient Egypt, Dr. Edward Bleiberg will explore the reasons that ancient Egyptian statues were deliberately damaged in the time of the Pharaohs and later, and will discuss the reasons that this exhibition of broken statues is an exciting opportunity for discovery. Dr. Bleiberg will also consider the way that historic harm to art speaks to contemporary issues such as race and racism and casts light on current debates about public art in our world.
See the full event description and Dr. Bleiberg’s bio here.
This program is included with museum admission. Special registration not required.
