    Living with Genji: The "World's First Novel" in 21st Century Japan

    Davis Family Library, Upper Level Display Cases

    The students in JAPN 290 (“Reading the Tale of Genji” in English”) and Prof. Otilia Milutin (Japanese Studies) are cordially inviting you and your students to view their exhibit, “Living with Genji: The World’s First Novel in 21st Century Japan.” The exhibit features a selection of objects, artwork, movies, and manga inspired by the 11th century classic The Tale of Genji by Murasaki Shikibu.  Our exhibit aims to showcase a few selected items that speak both of the tale’s enduring legacy in traditional Japanese arts, and, equally important, of its contemporary reiterations, be they manga and movies adaptations or commercial, consumer-oriented products such as mascots, stationary, fabrics, and other everyday objects.  Through our exhibit, we hope to demonstrate how a millennium old classic lives and thrives today in contemporary Japan.

    Artist Damian Stamer discusses his series, Angels & Ghosts

    Lecture and Lunch with guest artist, Damian Stamer who will discuss his series, Angels & Ghosts. Stamer’s distinctive artistic approach combines traditional oil painting techniques with AI imagery. He begins by inputting semi-autobiographical prompts into DALL·E 2. Without any mention of spectral elements, the AI produces images imbued with ethereal, ghostlike qualities that Stamer translates onto linen through meticulous and bold brushwork.

    Isidore String Quartet

    Winners of a 2023 Avery Fisher Career Grant and the 2022 Banff International String Quartet Competition, the Isidore String Quartet was formed with a vision to revisit, rediscover, and reinvigorate the repertory. After energizing a packed Robison Hall during their Middlebury debut last season, we’re thrilled to welcome them back with the world premiere of composer/pianist Billy Childs’ Quartet No. 4, written expressly for them. This new work will be paired with arrangements of Bach and Brahms by the quartet’s violist Devin Moore, plus Dvorák’s Opus 106 quartet.
