Tiffany explores how the queen constructed her identity with the art that had come into her possession, and analyzes the circulation of such art in the later Middle Ages.

The theme of this year's conference is "Rethinking the Body: Humanity and its Discontents in Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages."

Be sure to see the student models of important buildings from the era.

This year's conference was called Motion, Rhythm, Shifts.

The guide that they created is available in various Providence hotels and information centers.

We are happy to announce that three HIAA graduate students have been awarded grants in 2019 to continue their research.

This year's series entitled On Speculation considers the changing field of study in art and architectural history.

Professor Lincoln is looking forward to this new role in helping the department to continue to explore opportunities.

Courses in HIAA intersect with study in visual art, global cultures, science, and technology studies, and the built environment.

In particular, she is interested in the relationship of images to textual forms.

Similar to how a museum curator selects objects for an exhibition, Maya selected 8 sites on Brown's campus that are "portraits" of Brown–some are framed, most are not–to raise questions and create opportunities for changing institutions from within.

Dietrich Neumann has published a book chapter, entitled: "All the Struggles of the Present:  Alexander Dorner, Henry-Russell Hitchcock, and Rhode Island Architecture."

Professors Neumann, Osayimwese and department graduate and undergraduate students will be involved in public programs, talks, and tours about architecture in Providence.

Her talk argued for a more critical understanding of medieval and early modern conceptions of mimesis through an examination of a range of figural objects.

Professor Lincoln's chapter, "Printers and Publishers in Early Modern Rome" is included in a new book.

We are honored that HIAA architecture faculty Itohan Osayimwese and Dietrich Neumann are the local co-chairs of this year's conference.

The Richard B. Salomon Faculty Research Awards supported 13 exceptional faculty research projects at the University in 2019.

Emily will give a talk entitled “Embodied Knowledge and Reader Experience in Juan Valverde de Amusco’s Renaissance Anatomical Treatise.”

Students were asked to create artwork and then write reflective essays based on the pieces they learned about in class.

Grads and undergrads get together for informal meetings over coffee to discuss course selections.

The concentration now includes a number of mandatory classes at Rhode Island School of Design.
