In this Brown Bag lunch talk, Yasmine Espert will discuss her current research at the Clements Library as recipient of the Brian L. Dunnigan Fellowship in the History of Cartography. Her research this year is also supported by the Pierre and Maria-Gaetana Matisse Fellowship for 20th Century Art. A PhD candidate in Art History and Archaeology at Columbia University, her dissertation research explores how artists of African and Afro-Asian descent map their dreams of the Caribbean.
Attendees are welcome to bring a lunch and eat during the presentation.
