James van Dyke, Assistant Professor of Modern European Art History, Department of Art History and Archaeology, University of Missouri-Columbia, will consider the meaning of the technique of silverpoint drawing in Otto Dix’s scenes of sex, violence, and sexual violence in and after 1933, in particular asking whether two portraits made and exhibited in Berlin in 1935 can be seen as sly responses to both his critics and Nazi ideology in general.
