About this Event
Threaded Resistance: Fiber, Textiles, and Identity
What can a thread carry? In this lecture, we trace the radical possibilities of weaving, quilting, embroidery, and textile installations. Artists like Sheila Hicks, El Anatsui, and Harmony Hammond challenge gendered labor, craft hierarchies, and colonial legacies—one stitch at a time.
From Medium to Meaning: Critical Perspectives in Art History
A Monthly Lecture Series at Goucher College
What can a material say? How do artists use their mediums to express memory, identity, power, and protest?
In From Medium to Meaning, this monthly lecture series explores the art historical, cultural, and political contexts of diverse artistic practices. Spanning ancient funerary art to contemporary installation, the series centers close looking, material exploration, and critical analysis—connecting past to present, the classroom to the gallery, and the personal to the collective.
Each lecture will be presented by Liz Faust, Director of Exhibitions and Curator, and will highlight objects from Goucher’s collection, regional artists, or current exhibitions, offering new ways of seeing art history in motion.
