SUMMARY:UCLA Department of Art History Colloquium with Susan Dackerman\, May 6
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a Department of Art History Colloquium with featured speaker Susan Dackerman on Wednesday\, May 6 at 1 PM in Dodd 275 for her talk\, The Paleontology of Print: Lithographic Limestone and the Nature of Reproducibility.  \nSummary: When in 1796\, the Munich playwright Alois Senefelder developed a method of printing from the surface of the local Bavarian limestone\, he was utilizing a material that had been reproducing indexical images for millions of years. The Jurassic-era limestone slabs were riddled with fossilized flora and fauna. The same year as Senefelder’s invention\, from study of the same Bavarian limestone\, the French naturalist Georges Cuvier recognized that some fossils in the stone were petrifications of species that were no longer extant\, establishing the idea of extinction. Prior to Cuvier\, fossils were imagined to be images made by Nature itself. Senefelder’s use of the local limestone was preceded by the stone’s use by regional sculptors such as Hans Daucher\, who around 1500 turned from marble to the native limestone because the characteristics of the stone suited precision carving. Many of the fossil-laden stone sculptures subsequently were used as templates to cast bronze copies\, conceptually replicating the stone’s capacity to cast fossils. Nearly 300 years later\, the stone’s generative potential again was exploited to make printed multiples known as lithographs. My paper imagines how examining the history of early modern sculpture and prints alongside the history of paleontology enables us to see how Nature\, and the contemporaneous historical theories that explicate it\, have informed the work of artists\, as well as shaped the history of print and replication. \nAll are welcome!

SUMMARY:Walter Hopps Colloquium with Jennifer Sichel\, November 17\, 2025
DESCRIPTION:Please save the date for the next Hopps Colloquium. It will be a lecture and book event\, celebrating the publication of Jennifer Sichel’s new book from University of Chicago Press\, in the Abakanowicz Arts and Culture Collection series: Criticism Without Authority: Gene Swenson’s and Jill Johnston’s Queer Practices (2025). \nThe Walter Hopps Colloquium\, an ongoing series of lectures and discussions in modern and contemporary art\, funded in part via the Hopps Chair\, will begin with a lecture on artist Edward Keinholz\, with whom Hopps founded the Ferus Gallery in 1957. \nThis fall quarter\, the colloquia will run alongside Professor George Baker’s graduate seminar AH232 Contemporary Art\, which proposes to reexamine and open up LA art history in the 1960s and 70s by thinking it through global and other networks. \nJennifer Sichel\nUniversity of Louisville \nIn the 1960s\, Gene Swenson and Jill Johnston transformed art criticism into something much more expansive and unruly. Incorporating elements of poetry\, performance\, and protest\, they developed idiosyncratic practices that forged new ground\, politically and aesthetically. These critics were deeply enmeshed in New York’s avant-garde art scene\, and both were explicitly and unapologetically queer. This lecture and discussion will trace how Swenson and Johnston changed the course of artmaking as they refused norms of disciplined writing and authoritative voice. \nA graduate of Williams College and the University of Chicago art history programs\, Jennifer Sichel is Assistant Professor of Contemporary Art and Theory at the University of Louisville’s Hite Institute of Art and Design\, and affiliated faculty in the Department of Interdisciplinary and Comparative Humanities. A scholar of 20th and 21st-century art history\, she focuses on practices that fall outside traditional genres of artmaking and develops methodologies in careful dialogue with queer and affect theory. Her book\, Criticism without Authority: Gene Swenson’s and Jill Johnston’s Queer Practices (University of Chicago Press\, 2025)\, traces how Swenson and Johnston reinvented criticism as a capacious practice by rejecting modernist appeals to purity and coherence. They devised new ways not only to describe experiments in art and performance\, but also to enact new queer sensibilities. At the same time\, they often failed to effect change or to see a bigger picture beyond their own triumphs and struggles. Criticism Without Authority makes their work visible not just as criticism\, but as its own form of art. \nSichel has published scholarly and critical writing in Selva: A Journal of the History of Art\, The Oxford Art Journal\, Sculpture Journal\, as well as in exhibition catalogues for museums including The Whitney Museum\, The Jewish Museum\, Museum moderner Kunst Stiftung Ludwig Wien\, and the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery. She is the author of “‘Do You Think Pop Art’s Queer?’ Gene Swenson and Andy Warhol” —a key queer intervention that changed art history’s understanding of Warhol’s practice through archival recovery\, and established Swenson’s importance as a queer writer and artist. Her research has been supported by fellowships from the Clark Art Institute\, Smithsonian Archives of American Art\, Terra Foundation for American Art\, and Humanities Division at the University of Chicago. \nReception to follow in the Art History and Classics Faculty Lounge.

SUMMARY:Walter Hopps Colloquium with Julian Myers\, October 20\, 2025
DESCRIPTION:The Walter Hopps Colloquium\, an ongoing series of lectures and discussions in modern and contemporary art\, funded in part via the Hopps Chair\, will begin with a lecture on artist Edward Keinholz\, with whom Hopps founded the Ferus Gallery in 1957. \nThis fall quarter\, the colloquia will run alongside Professor George Baker’s graduate seminar AH232 Contemporary Art\, which proposes to reexamine and open up LA art history in the 1960s and 70s by thinking it through global and other networks. \nPlease save the date and invite any who you think may wish to attend. \nJulian Myers\, “Sadism on Tour\, or: Kienholz at Documenta” \nProduced at the height of his fame and among a sprawling cohort of family and friends\, Edward Kienholz’s ambitious tableau Five Car Stud depicted a horrific scene: the graphic castration of a Black man by life-sized figures wearing masks of Hollywood monsters. “Sadism on Tour” tells the story of the tableau’s early 1970s realizations: its staging in the parking lot of Gemini G.E.L. in Los Angeles; its documentation book; and its first public showing\, after some failed attempts\, at the German exhibition documenta 5. Once described as a “three-dimensional representation of a lynching photograph\,” this lecture grapples with the estrangements within this realism\, including those that surfaced as the artist’s phantasmatic portrait of American violence met a European audience. \nJulian Myers is an art historian and editor based in Los Angeles. Myers was founding faculty in the Graduate Program in Curatorial Practice at California College of the Arts\, 2003–20\, and was senior editor of the journal The Exhibitionist\, 2014–17. Myers’s edited volume of writings by curator and museum director Zdenka Badovinac\, Comradeship: Art\, Curating\, and Politics in Post-Socialist Europe\, was published by ICI in 2019. Recent and forthcoming writings include essays on Arthur Jafa\, Christina Fernandez\, Nancy Holt\, the Société Anonyme\, and the history of the art center as a laboratory. Since 2011\, Myers has worked with Joanna Szupinska in the collaboration grupa o.k. They have produced critical and curatorial projects for the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art\, the Museum of Contemporary Art\, Chicago\, the School of the Art Institute of Chicago\, Muzeum Sztuki\, Łódź\, Poland\, and other institutions.

SUMMARY:UCLA Art Council Distinguished Scholar Lecture featuring Mark Godfrey
DESCRIPTION:The Department of Art History proudly presents the UCLA Art Council Distinguished Scholar Lecture featuring Mark Godfrey\, Director\, New Curators\, and guest curator of Kerry James Marshall: The Histories\, Royal Academy of Arts\, London. \nIn his talk\, “Kerry James Marshall: The Histories” Godfrey discusses: \n“The ‘histories’ in play in Marshall’s practice are multiple and intertwining. He thinks about the histories of painting’s conventions and genres. He considers the histories of materials that painters have used for centuries\, like egg tempera\, and those they have not\, like glitter; the histories of perspective and flatness\, of brushwork and gesture. While he is most known for confronting the exclusion of Black subjects in the history of figurative painting and in modernist abstraction\, in several projects he has looked back at the history of the inclusion of Black figures\, and at earlier attempts to forge a Black aesthetic\, and at the histories of Afrofuturism. Marshall occasionally touches on personal history\, more frequently attends to individuals who have been forgotten\, and increasingly provokes questions about history that few others wish to confront. Marshall has worked on all these levels since 1980 because he recognises this is what it takes for ambitious work to be taken seriously and exhibited\, because he regrets the way several Black artists before him have been romanticized precisely because of their disconnection from art history\, and because he wagers that his layered approach to history will mean his work is taken seriously for centuries to come.” \nThe talk will occur on Monday\, December 9\, at 4 PM in the Laureate Room of the Luskin Conference Center.

SUMMARY:Charlene Villaseñor Black to speak at Fowler Museum Gallery Talk on October 25
DESCRIPTION:The Department of Art History is pleased to co-sponsor a gallery talk at the Fowler Museum featuring Professor of Art History and Chicana/o Studies and Associate Director of the Chicano Studies Research Center Charlene Villaseñor Black and Lilly Endowment Curator of Art and Religion Patrick A. Polk. Illuminating commentary on the exhibition Descanse en Paz: Memorial Paintings from 19th-Century Mexico will be paired with light refreshments in the courtyard. \nThis exhibition highlights two popular genres of 19th-century Mexican painting commemorating family members who no longer reside in the household— offering them a lasting presence in the home. The first intimately portrays deceased individuals in likenesses imbued with grief and tender remembrance. The subjects—often children—are shown full of life: some appear with toys in hand; others rest in peace (descanse en paz). The second genre is the uniquely Mexican monja coronada or “crowned nun” portrait. Images of flower-adorned “Brides of Christ” were commissioned by the families of women who took Catholic ecclesiastical vows and permanently embarked on cloistered lives. \nThe event will take place on Friday\, October 25 from 5:30pm to 7:30pm. All are welcome to attend. For more information and to RSVP\, please click here.  \n

SUMMARY:UCLA Arts Council Distinguished Scholar Sally Stein Presents Her Second Talk on April 16th
DESCRIPTION:Sally Stein\, the UCLA Arts Council Distinguished Scholar Lecturer for 2024\, will deliver her second talk in this two-lecture series on Tuesday\, April 16th.   \nPlease join us for her upcoming talk entitled\, “For Pleasure or Profit & Power? The Beckoning (& still early reckoning) of Color in Interwar American Mass Media & Culture.” \nAfter a brief consideration of one photographer’s rather surprising embrace of color photography – for the photographer in question\, Gisèle Freund\, had quite recently in the mid 1930s published the first doctoral thesis on nineteenth century photography’s development in which she denounces all additions of color – this lecture broadens its focus to consider the interwar emergence of modern color in mass media in a comparative international context. \nThe event will be held in Royce 306 from 4 to 6pm\, with a reception to follow. \nAll are welcome to attend! \nFor more details regarding this lecture\, please check out the event page here.

SUMMARY:Professor Charlene Villaseñor Black to present the 2024 Patricia McCarron McGinn Lecture on March 4
DESCRIPTION:The UCLA Department of Art History proudly presents the 2024 Patricia McCarron McGinn Lecture\, featuring Charlene Villaseñor Black\, Art History Professor and Faculty Chair of the Chicana/o and Central American Studies. \nProfessor Charlene Villaseñor Black will be delivering a lecture entitled\, “Art against Necropolitics”: \nCan art act in the face of violence? Beginning in the 1990s\, feminist activists and visual artists joined forces to protest feminicide (feminicidio)\, the targeted murders of women and girls\, along the US-Mexico border. Mexican American (Chicana) artist Judithe Hernández produced her moving Juárez series in response. This talk focuses on Hernández’s work\, analyzing her use of rhetorics of memorialization\, including pictorial echoes of Catholic saints and deliberate invocations of indigeneity\, to honor these victims of violence. While situated within the specific locale of the US-Mexico border\, Hernández’s images are also in dialogue with anti-feminicide activism around the globe. Can art contest the power of necropolitics? \nThe presentation\, with a reception to follow\, will be held on Monday\, March 4\, 2024 at 5 PM at the Luskin Conference Center. \nPlease RSVP here by February 21st. \n

SUMMARY:UCLA Arts Council Distinguished Scholar Lecture with Sally Stein
DESCRIPTION:The UCLA Department of Art History presents the UCLA Arts Council Distinguished Scholar Lecturer for 2024: Sally Stein. \nSally Stein\, Professor Emerita\, Department of Art History & Visual Studies\, UC Irvine\, will deliver a talk entitled “The Cons and Pros of Portraiture In Contemporary Art Discourse and Practice”. \nStein reconsiders the now-classic essays by Benjamin H.D. Buchloh denouncing the social value of the art of portraiture which\, to that critic’s dismay\, refuses to wither away with the development of twentieth century abstract art. Stein introduces a number of factors for portraiture’s resilience after the rise of abstraction.
