Annual Symposium of Latin American Art
The Fifth Annual Latin American Art Symposium will be held between April 8 and 10, 2021.
Touch, Taste, Turn: Unleashing the Senses in the Art of the Americas is the theme of the Fifth Annual Latin American Art Symposium at the Institute of Fine Arts, New York University; The Graduate Center, CUNY; and Columbia University. The event takes place each spring and is hosted by the Institute of Fine Arts Ph.D. graduates, Professor Edward J. Sullivan, and invited partner institutions. With the support of the Institute for Studies on Latin American Art (ISLAA), this series of two-day panels also feature prominent speakers among scholars and artists to share and discuss artistic production and art discourses in Latin America and Latino art from the USA.
This year the symposium will be held online with keynotes by María Magdalena Campos-Pons, artist and professor of Fine Arts, Cornelius Vanderbilt Endowed Chair of Fine Arts, Vanderbilt University, and Claire Tancons, writer and curator. The symposium will close with an original work by performance artist Castiel Vitorino Brasileiro. Speakers will share short prerecorded presentations three weeks before the event so that attendees can view the presentations on their own time. The panel discussions on April 9 will be dedicated to questions and answers only. The keynote talks and the performance will be live, with time reserved for questions and answers.
