CANON: A Mini-Symposium

Thursday, Feb 7 10:00a to 12:30p

Nine centuries after the adoption of the term “canon” in art discourse to describe the world's most important and valuable works, this symposium will take a fresh look at the concept of the canon as it applies to the textiles and other visual arts of Africa, Oceania, Asia, and the Americas. Leading scholars will ask how notions about canon determine what we know, see, and purchase. These talks will explore how the canon guides art historians, museum curators, and collectors.
