Spotlight Tour: Horror Vacui, with Sophia Pasalis \u201925

On this tour, Sophia Pasalis ’25 will examine how artists mediate physical and metaphysical worlds, how and when space needs to be filled, and when our imagination is left to play a large part in the process. The stops on the tour will be an Ottoman tile panel (c. 1570), Auguste Rodin’s sculpture The Walking Man (1899–1900), and Jacob Lawrence’s painting Ventriloquist (1952).
Spotlight Tours offer a chance to explore the collections of the Harvard Art Museums through the eyes of a Harvard student. Free and open to the public, these tours start outside the museum shop on Saturdays and Sundays at 11am and 2pm. Drop in and join the conversation! And find out what the Student Guides are up to anytime on Instagram @harvardarthappens.
Please check in with museum staff at the Visitor Services desk in the Calderwood Courtyard to request to join the tour. Tours are limited to 18 people and are available on a first-come, first-served basis; no registration is required.
