Highlighting art from the Middlebury College Museum of Art’s collection of antiquities and the special exhibition Naked Truth: Approaches to the Body in Early-Twentieth-Century German and Austrian Art, this gallery talk will compare classical notions of the body to their modern equivalents. Led by Pieter Broucke (Associate Curator of Ancient Art) and Jason Vrooman (Curator of Education and Academic Programs).
Please meet in the foyer of the Middlebury College Museum of Art, Mahaney Center for the Arts.
The nearly 200 works in this exhibit showcase the spectacular craftsmanship and sophisticated design long associated with Japan, and convey the complex social and cultural tensions in Japan leading up to World War II. In addition to the modernism that signaled simultaneously Japan’s unique history and its cosmopolitanism, the exhibit also highlights the theme of the modern girl, the emblem of contemporary urban chic that flowered along with the Art Deco style in the 1920s and 1930s.
