- Oct 22All dayPattern RecognitionThe concept of pattern in the arts provides artists with tools that can limit creativity or suggest new avenues for exploration. They can offer a maker innovative options to explore with their accustomed materials and techniques; at times present a designer a means of control; advance a range of new ornaments and motifs to work with; and impart a new understanding of the relation between functional and decorative form. This exhibition will look at the impact of pattern in the arts using the University Art Galleries collections.

On view at Wright Gallery, Langford A, Room 212, from Sept. 16-Oct. 24. Artist talk: Sept. 26, 4-5 p.m.; reception from 5-6 p.m.

- Oct 224:00 PMColloquium Series: Olivia Thomas & Alexandra LaGrandPresenters:Olivia Thomas, Ph.D. Candidate | Anthropology "Historic Shipwrecks as Part of a Maritime Cultural Landscape Survey of St. Croix, USVT" Alexandra LaGrand, Ph.D. Candidate | English "Britain in Breeches: Gender and British Identity in the Romantic Theatre" Abstracts:ThomasThe maritime cultural landscape is a multi-disciplinary theoretical framework that allows for a range of evidence to be compiled in order to interpret locations of interest. Shipwrecks is one of five components typically utilized in constructing and understanding a maritime cultural landscape. Historic newspapers and archival sources offer indications of when and where ships wrecked around the former Danish West Indian Island. Historic records and local geology were analyzed in the hopes of confirming the location, identity, and condition of potential historic shipwreck sites. This paper will present historic research into shipping and shipwrecks as well as the results of field surveys conducted in 2023 which focused on identifying historic shipwreck sites around St. Croix.LaGrand During the British Romantic period, young girls and women actresses would take on a substantial number of genderfluid theatrical roles. These roles were written in plays by William Shakespeare and others, and would feature actresses donning male breeches, or trousers, for the presentation of male gender identity onstage. Using archival materials, I argue that these actresses were both influential to the conception of British cultural identity onstage in the Romantic theatre throughout Britain's global empire. This paper will focus specifically on the Shakespearean boy prince character type—one of the several character types I discuss in my dissertation—and how actresses performed boy princes as manifestations of staged tomboyism. Chair: Tanner Ogle Please note that this is not a lecture, and thus, is not suited for class attendance. The Colloquium Series is intended to provide the presenter with a forum to discuss their research and receive feedback from colleagues and peers.
