  • Add to Calendar 2024-09-26 17:00:00 2024-09-26 19:30:00 Barnard x Guggenheim Have you ever been provoked by the marble bench on Barnard's campus inscribed with comforting, inspiring, disturbing, moving, or just perplexing all-caps one-liners such as "MUCH WAS DECIDED BEFORE YOU WERE BORN," "THERE'S NOTHING EXCEPT WHAT YOU SENSE," and "ABUSE OF POWER COMES AS NO SURPRISE"? These and other texts by the artist Jenny Holzer have been set in motion across town at the Guggenheim Museum. Join the CSC & CEP for an evening at the Guggenheim Museum to view and experience the exhibition Jenny Holzer: Light Line. We’ll discuss issues related to technology's role in art curation and practice and engage with the themes of the exhibition, which include authorship and authenticity; technology and aesthetic form; text as a medium; and rights to political speech in public spaces. This event, open to up to 60 Barnard students, consists of a self-guided exploration, an interactive tour, facilitated discussion, and hands-on collaborative activities. For more information about the event and to apply to attend, visit https://bit.ly/barnardxgugg Apply by Thursday, September 19, 2024 to be considered. This program is co-sponsored and co-organized by the CSC, CEP, and the Guggenheim Innovation Lab, an experiential learning program run by the Guggenheim’s Academic Engagement department. In collaboration with university and college partners, the Innovation Lab cultivates pedagogy and practice in the humanities and creative fields in a way that is interdisciplinary, collaborative, publicly engaged, and experimental.
