Bernie Schultz is set to present the next Lunchtime Looks Friday (Nov. 1) at the Art Museum of WVU. All are invited to bring a brown-bag lunch to the Museum Education Center Grand Hall at noon to converse with Schultz, museum staff and fellow museum-goers as they enjoy their midday meal. The presentation will commence at 12:20 p.m. in the McGee gallery of the Art Museum of WVU. The session will end by 1 p.m., for those who need to get back to their offices.
Schultz is Professor Emeritus of Art History in the College of Creative Arts. He has also served the College as both Associate Dean and Dean and is currently a docent at the Art Museum of WVU. The topic of his presentation will be Harry Sternberg’s print Fascism, which responds to a tradition of artists who have expressed the horror of conflict and war. Although from the 20th century, Sternberg’s work draws inspiration from a painting done centuries earlier, Peter Paul Rubens’ Allegory of the Outbreak of War from 1638. Dr. Schultz’s talk will explore the visual and meaningful dialogue between these two works.
The Art Museum and Museum Education Center are located near the corner of Patteson Drive and Morrill Way at the Evansdale Campus North Entrance.
Parking is available in short-term lots ST-1 and ST-9, with pay stations, one located near Patteson Drive and the other near Evansdale Crossing.
