This two-day symposium, convened by the Clark's Research and Academic Program, in association with MASS MoCA, brings together scholars and exhibiting artists to discuss the role of history in contemporary art practice, examining the significance of representation in historical and cultural memory. Participants will discuss the visual techniques that illuminate repressed, obscured, and dismissed moments in the timelines of global history. How does a society remember? What is worth remembering? And, ultimately, what are the functions of history? Participating scholars include: Martin Jay, Jame Meyer, Steven Nelson, Daniel Rosenburg, and Carrie Lambert-Beatty. Participating artists are: Paul Chan, Greta Pratt, Jeremy Deller, and Allison Smith.
