Congratulations to undergraduate seniors, Maddy Fox and Vivian Lewis, whose papers have been accepted for the 2024 SUNY New Paltz Art History Symposium from a highly competitive pool. Maddy’s paper, “The Adoption of Aesthetics: Borrowing Byzantium and Looking West in the Russian Romanesque,” seeks to address and expand the notion of amalgamation between the Byzantine and European tradition in Slavic architecture during the 12th century. Vivian’s paper focuses on Madox Brown’s Cordelia Parting from her Sisters and discusses Pre-Raphaelite social commentary about Victorian values; in 2023 it won an award for the best undergraduate art history paper. The conference sessions will be held in April via Zoom.
Professor Maggie Popkin and doctoral candidates Madeline Newquist, Clara Pinchbeck, and Arielle Suskin attended the recent Archaeological Institute of America annual meeting in Chicago. Congratulations to Madeline, Clara, and Arielle, who each gave a superb and very well-received paper!
