The 18th-century Paço Imperial, or the Imperial Palace, previously known as the Royal Palace of Rio de Janeiro and Palace of the Viceroys, in Praça XV — a square located in the center of the city’s old waterfront.

Later this week, Professor Dennis Geronimus is off on something of a Renaissance Tour of Brazil! While there, he will deliver four lectures in the cities of Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, and Campinas. On November 30, he has been invited to present “A More Material Mannerism: The Art of Jacopo da Pontormo” in Rio’s historic Paço Imperial. On December 4, he will deliver “Piero di Cosimo and the Poetics of Picture Making” at MASP (Museu de Arte de São Paulo Assis Chateaubriand), to celebrate the publication of Piero di Cosimo: Restauração [Restoration]). The following day, he travels to Campinas, to give a lecture at the annual Encontro de História da Arte (EHA) conference at Unicamp: “Undercurrents: Making as Meaning in Jacopo da Pontormo’s Artistic Practice.” Finally, on December 6, he is back in São Paulo to present a talk titled “Becoming Animal.”

Shelley Rice in Venice!

3 Nov

Shelley Rice will participate in a conference on Artists and Aging, on the effects of age on creativity in both a theoretical and a biographical sense, at the Fondation Cini in Venice, Italy from November 27-29, 2017. Talks will focus on a range of topics and artists, including Titien and Duchamp, Bourgeois and Rembrandt, Delacroix and Hollywood cinema, as well as the realities and myths about old age. Rice will speak about works of and by Elisabeth Vigée le Brun, Georgia O’Keeffe and Cindy Sherman in order to visualize the constraints — of conventional beauty, personality and youth — blocking the development of the feminine image (and image-maker) in modern Western culture. Breaking loose from these limitations with the help of French philosopher Henri Bergson, O’Keeffe and her husband, photographer Alfred Stieglitz, shaped a radical new vision of the Woman Artist in Time —  a 20th century vision that might be of crucial importance for those of us living (and aging) in the contemporary society of the Selfie.
