Unfolding the Baroque (conference)

Cowell College Conference Room, 132

The conference, Unfolding the Baroque, will deal with two aspects concerned with concepts and histories of the Baroque: 1) the art-historical and cultural-historical category of the Baroque in new cross-cultural, trans-medial, and trans-historical configurations, e.g., "baroque-ness;" and 2) the aesthetics, historiography, and general Weltanschauung of the baroque as a conceptual model for contemporary critical thinking, writing, and performance.

The conference will also include a performance on Baroque Musical Instruments, Vocalizing the Baroque: Qualities of Motion and Instrumental Extensions with an introduction by Professor Nina Treadwell. Performance will take place at Cowell College Provost House, Friday, April 17, at 5 pm.
