MEMS Lecture Series. 'It Began with a Picture', or, Inventing Stories to Make Sense of Images in the European Middle Ages. (September 30, 2019 4:30pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/65742 65742-16651985@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Monday, September 30, 2019 4:30pm
Location: Tappan Hall
Organized By: Medieval and Early Modern Studies (MEMS)

This paper examines medieval discussions of iconography, what an image represents. It concentrates on what Dale Kinney has called narrative etiologies, that is cases where medieval viewers, provoked by an image they did not understand, invent a story that explains it. My examples include the contested reception of ruler portraits, inquiries into images in churches, and narrative elaborations on hagiographical images. These cases demonstrate that medieval viewers were quite happy to accept Pope Gregory the Great's invitation to read images as the literate read texts. For the art historian, they offer gratifying proof that images may provoke verbal narratives instead of merely depending on them.

Location: Tappan Hall
Organized By: Global Islamic Studies Center

How can art function as a means of political resistance? When does resistance against the exhibition of certain art function as a means of censorship? This talk attempts to address these questions through an examination of contemporary Palestinian art practices. Beginning with an introduction into the art practices of some contemporary Palestinian artists living both within historic Palestine and the diaspora, I will discuss how these artists use their work to highlight and challenge the realities of life under persistent occupation, as well as how their practices must adapt to a settler colonial context. Then, turning towards a U.S. context, I address the obstacles to exhibiting and discussing Palestinian art in the States in recent case studies. These difficulties manifest in museum exhibitions through an insistence on “fairness,” “balance,” and an insurance to tell the stories of “both sides” of the conflict when discussing Palestine and Israel. This formulation ignores the unequal balance of power inherent in Palestine (both historically and contemporarily), which has resulted in Palestinian artists withdrawing from exhibitions where they feel this imbalance is normalized.
