Symposium: "American Art in a Global Context"
Friday, September 29, 2006
Session III: Artistic Havens Abroad

Moderator: Renée Ater, University of Maryland

Presenters:
Barbara Groseclose, Ohio State University, "The Haven-Finding Art: Hawthorne, James, and Story in Italy"
Katherine Bourguignon, Musée d'Art Américain Giverny, "The Giverny Trick"
Kirstin L. Ellsworth, Pitzer College, "AFRI-COBRA: Global Art of Beauty and Blackness"

This three-day symposium looked at American art in a global context—from circum-Atlantic migrations in the eighteenth century to European training and travel in the late nineteenth century; from the export of U.S. culture and media in the twentieth century to the impact of immigration and globalization on the nation's visual arts in the new millennium.
