SUMMARY:Afternoon with the Author: Glenn Peers
DESCRIPTION:Free with admission. \nJoin us and author Glenn Peers in our Museum Shop on January 24 at 1:00pm for an insightful peek into the making of Peers’ Byzantine Media Subjects followed by a short reading from his book and a Q&A\, alongside complimentary tea\, coffee\, and treats. Peers will demonstrate and explain the methodology described in his book alongside one of our very own icons from our collection. Said to be “complex in its objectives but remarkably easy to follow\,” Byzantine Media Subjects “invites readers into a world replete with images–icons\, frescoes\, and mosaics filling places of worship\, politics\, and community.” \nByzantine art scholar Glenn Peers has “always experienced the power and enigma of art very strongly\, and would like to try to communicate something of the beautiful strangeness of art.” \nContinuing to explore those qualities in curatorial work for the last several years\, Peers believes encounters with art\, real and immediate\, are important for teaching and successful classes. He began his graduate career and early publishing on topics related to medieval theories and practice of iconoclasm\, and is continuing to think through these positions but now from a very strong view to explaining the material and experiential strangeness of art. \nGlenn Peers is Emeritus Professor of the History of Art at both Syracuse University and the University of Texas at Austin. \nBring your own copy for the author to sign! Don’t have your own? Copies will be available to purchase in the Museum Shop.
