Notes from the Chair

Art History Mascot

Meet Manny, pet of Chair Susan Aberth, the unofficial mascot of the Art History department.  He is a fat-tailed leopard gecko and is very friendly.

Vitrine Project

The Vitrine Project

Nick Gorski ’10 christened the new display cases  (made possible by a generous donation from Barbara S. Grossman ’73, Michael and Willa Gross ’08)  last spring by featuring his collection of science fiction book covers which he examined in his senior project titled The Future to Behold: Science Fiction Cover Art from Paul to Powers. The Art History Program will continue to curate small exhibitions for the Vitrine Project.  All students and faculty interested in creating a display please contact Tom Wolf with a brief description of your intended project.
