Eve Meltzer, Assistant Professor of Visual Studies, Gallatin School, will consider the aftermath aesthetics of “Damaged Romanticism” in relation to Albrecht Dürer’s Melancolia of 1514 and Robert Morris’s drawing series Blind Time V: Melancholia of 1999, which references Dürer’s engraving, Romanticism, and the affect of being within what we might loosely call an aftermath.
