Congratulations to Anna Farber, a first-year MA student in medieval art, who presented her paper “Issues of Blood: Profuse Menstruation in Medieval Art” at the SECAC’s annual conference, held this year in Cincinnati. The session, “Tidal Flux: The Representation of Menstrual Periods in Art,” featured both art historians and practicing artists who examined menstruation’s often-unexplored impact on the visual record. While at the conference, Anna had the opportunity to visit several Cincinnati arts institutions, including the Cincinnati Museum of Art, and meet colleagues from all over the world to discuss common issues facing our field. We look forward to Anna’s paper at the Cleveland Symposium this Friday!
