The Clark – Virginia Burrus, ‘Curating Earthquakes’

Clark Fellow Virginia Burrus presents, “Curating Earthquakes: Between Ballroom Marfa’s ‘Hyperobjects’ (2018) and Jerome’s Life of St. Hilarion (390).” This lecture explores the relation between memory and place, shuttling between Marfa, Texas, and Paphos, Cyprus, a contemporary exhibition and a fourth-century literary work. Earthquakes, and larger dynamics of destruction and resilience, provide a particular point of convergence, as the lecture engages both memory and place in their intimately material and more-than-human dimensions.

The Clark Research and Academic Program – Colonial Art and Architecture in Brazil with Andre Tavares

This presentation offers a view on the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries’ artistic heritage in what is now independent Brazil. It underlines regional variations on the adaptation of the Portuguese artistic models and presents a chronology of relevant artwork. In parallel with some milestones of the political and territorial organization of the then called Portuguese America, we will briefly discuss the features of Brazilian artistic geography and the role that colonial art played in the creation of a national narrative for the Brazilian History of Art.
