Roundtable Discussion: Behind Closed Doors

A day-long, bilingual roundtable discussion about calculated collecting practices in the colonial Americas, in celebration of the exhibition Behind Closed Doors: Art in the Spanish American Home, 14921898.

The program begins with a morning session, in Spanish with simultaneous English interpretation, on collecting for the home, moderated by Jorge F. Rivas Pérez, curator of Colonial Art at the Colección Patricia Phelps de Cisneros.

The afternoon session, in English, explores adorning the colonial body and will be moderated by Richard Aste, curator of European Art at the Brooklyn Museum.

Collecting and signaling status through dress also connect with our fall exhibition The Fashion World of Jean Paul Gaultier: From the Sidewalk to the Catwalk.

Speakers include:

  • Gustavo Curiel, Research Fellow, Instituto de Investigaciones Estéticas, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México
  • Maria Del Pilar Lopez Perez de Bejarano, Associate Professor, Instituto de Investigaciones Estéticas, Universidad Nacional de Colombia
  • Barbara E. Mundy, Associate Professor of Art History, Fordham University
  • Linda Rodríguez, Postdoctoral Fellow, Art History Department, New York University
