PANEL

Harn Eminent Scholar Chair in Art History (HESCAH)

José Falconi (moderator) / Panel Participants: Amalia Pica, Alice Miceli, José Gabriel Fernández

“Plural Domains: Art in, of, from Latin America” includes one art history lecture and a panel discussion comprised of internationally recognized artists and a scholar, each with a distinguished career and record of exhibitions, publications and participation in public events. The events take as their point of departure the exhibition Plural Domains: Selected Works from the Cisneros Fontanals Art Foundation Collection, which is curated by Jesús Fuenmayor for University Galleries and the Harn Museum of Art. The panel addresses the interconnections between artistic practices, curatorial research as well as diversity and pluralism in the contemporary art of Latin America.

PANEL

This panel will contextualize Alice Miceli's experimental mode of documentation within the genre of photography.

Alice Miceli's work operates within a legacy of documentary photography to depict the aftermath of the 1986 Chernobyl explosion. Instead of repeating the widespread images of the abandoned buildings of Pripyat and its survivors, she developed a scientific method to document the radiation itself. This panel will contextualize her experimental mode of documentation within the genre of photography.

PANEL

This panel addresses how the risk of nuclear disaster continues to threaten global health, human rights, and the environment.

Although visitors to Alice Miceli: Projeto Chernobyl can see the effects of the gamma rays, the imperceptibility of its threat heightened the Chernobyl Power Plant explosion’s consequences for the population surrounding Pripyat. This panel addresses how the risk of nuclear disaster continues to threaten global health, human rights, and the environment.

TALK

Alice will introduce and discuss the exhibition, Alice Miceli: Projeto Chernobyl. She will shed light on the process of her series made in the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone as well her work on land mines in Angola, Cambodia, Colombia, and Bosnia. Her work in impenetrable spaces reveals urgent issues about art, human rights, and the environment.

TALK

The Brazilian artist will present a talk on recent works that explore the phenomenon of impenetrable, inaccessible spaces, that even in our globalized world, remain somehow off the map.
