Please join Jessica Brit Ingle, UT Dallas Ph.D. Candidate & O'Donnell Institute Graduate Fellow for a workshop talk on her research:

Reframing Texas Art: Women Photographers in the Lone Star State

This workshop will explore the exclusionary nature of scholarship in relation to Texas women photographers stemming from various traditions in both art history and Texas history. From this analysis, a new methodological approach will be formulated that takes into account these artist’s gender, geography and medium, allowing for further analysis of these artist’s practice.

A reception will be held outside at the UT Dallas Alumni Center following the lecture.
