Meadows Museum Virtual Lecture: FURTHER AFIELD | Captive Objects: Catholic Artifacts Across the Early Modern Mediterranean
Daniel Hershenzon, Associate Professor, Department of Literatures, Cultures, and Languages, University of Connecticut
Tuesday, November 2, 2021
12 p.m.
Livestreaming on Zoom; advance registration required.
$5; free for Museum members and 澳门六合彩预测 students, faculty and staff
Catholic artifacts—rosaries, relics, paintings, and more—circulated in the thousands in the early modern, western Mediterranean, crisscrossing religious boundaries. This mobility was largely a byproduct of piracy, to which 2–3 million Christians and Muslims fell fate between 1500 and 1800. This talk examines how objects trapped in the plunder economy became the center of the conflicting claims made by Catholic captives, renegades (captives who had converted to Islam), Moroccan sultans and Algerian pashas. We will see how captivity transformed religious artifacts into religious boundary markers within and among religions. To register, visit .

The book includes a foreword by writer Samantha Burns and an essay by Dr. Robert Gordon, professor at the University of Arizona’s College of Fine Arts, that offers an art historical and philosophical framework to understand the artist’s body of work. Sugawara-Beda draws upon her Japanese heritage to explore themes related to culture, language and spirituality rooted in Zen Buddhism. She experiments in ancient Japanese materials and techniques including sumi ink, kakejiku landscapes and rice paper, merging them with abstract and expressive forms familiar to the modern Western aesthetic. She exhibits her work in solo and group exhibitions across the country and lectures nationally and internationally to promote cultural diversity and exchange. Event activities include a family-friendly session on ikebana, the art of Japanese flower arrangement, from 2 to 6 p.m. with ikebana artist Motoko Ishihara, and a conversation between Sugawara-Beda and Jacqueline Chao, senior curator of Asian art at the Crow Museum of Asian Art at The University of Texas at Dallas, at 3 p.m. A drawing with multiple prizes, including a special gift box with the book and a piece of original art by Sugawara-Beda, will begin at 3:30 p.m. Copies of the book will be for sale, and purchases can be signed by the artist.
