鈥屸�孖nvisibilia per visibilia: Roman Nuns, Art Patronage, and the Construction of Identity
Thursday, November 15, 2012
Dr. Marilyn Dunn is an associate professor in the Department of 鈥屸�孎ine and Performing Arts and an associate faculty member of the Women's Studies and Gender Studies Program at 51漫画Chicago. In her article, "Invisibilia per visibilia: Roman Nuns, Art Patronage, and the Construction of Identity," Dunn examines how nuns engaged in art patronage in the churches they could not enter in order to construct identities that both subscribed to monasticism and challenged the constriction on enclosure.
