Through Dec. 18<\/strong>
\nLes Femmes du Maroc: An Exhibition by Lalla Essaydi: <\/em>The images in Essaydi\u2019s most recent body of work present Moroccan women in staged narratives. These women inhabit a place that is literally and entirely circumscribed by text, written by the artist herself directly on their bodies, apparel and surroundings. The photographs, based on 19th-century Orientalist paintings, critique contemporary social structures, but simultaneously confront historical attitudes that have helped construct representations of Arab women. Made possible by the Lois and Richard England Family Foundation and the Davis Family Foundation.<\/p>\n

<\/em><\/p>\n

Metamorphoses: A Collaboration with Ovid by Wally Reinhardt:<\/em> Reinhardt has focused his work solely on interpreting Ovid\u2019s Metamorphoses<\/em> since the 1980s. His gouaches vividly bring to life many of the favorite characters of classical mythology. Reinhardt’s exhibition is offered in co-sponsorship with the programs in classical and medieval studies and in interdisciplinary studies, and by the Division of Humanities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
