Come hear Professor George Gorse talk about his recent research trip to Italy and the work he is doing on medieval Genoa on Monday, November 3, at 4:15 pm in Lebus 110. While in Rome, Professor Gorse gave the keynote address on “”Pope Julius II della Rovere, Admiral Andrea Doria, Doge Andrea Gritti: Patrons of Renovatio Romae” at an international conference on “Family Patronage in Early Modern Genoa, Rome, and Venice (1500-1750),” sponsored by the Hertziana Library at the German Art Historical Institute in Rome on September 8-9. He also presented a talk on September 26 at the Istituto della Storia dell’Arte at the University of Genoa on “Genova e la Storia dell’Arte.”
Professors George Gorse and Frances Pohl will be attending this year’s annual meeting of the College Art Association in Chicago (weather permitting!) next week. Professor Gorse will be co-chairing a session on February 15 sponsored by the Renaissance Society of America entitled “The ‘Object’ in the Renaissance,” while Professor Pohl will be presenting a talk on February 12 entitled “Working with the Women’s Action Coalition (WAC): Documentary Exhibitions and Political Activism” in the session “Art History as Civic Engagement” sponsored by the Association of Historians of American Art.
The Los Angeles area has much to offer students of the Claremont Colleges who are interested in art. In order to take advantage of some of these many art-viewing opportunities, Professors Frances Pohl and George Gorse organized a visit to “The Great Wall of Los Angeles” by Judith Baca, a 1/2 mile-long mural in the Tujunga drainage channel in North Hollywood, and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art on Sunday, March 3, for students in Art History 51C, 184, and 186E. Such trips are a regular part of the art history courses offered by Pomona’s Department of Art and Art History.
