Please join us on November 19 for what promises to be a fantastic lecture to be delivered by Margaret Graves, Adrienne Minassian Associate Professor of Islamic Art and Architecture at Brown. Titled "Islamic Ceramics and Other Fictions of Capital," the lecture explores the fictionalized objects of Islamic ceramics collecting that suture together multiple temporalities with skill and ingenuity, creating new objects of delight for elite collectors and asking us to think again about what we value most in the artifacts of the medieval past. The lecture will be of interest to academics, museum professionals, and collectors, so please spread the word!
