Material Matters
Christian Scheidemann, New York-based conservator, and Christine Mehring, faculty member and chair of Art History, orchestrate a series of engagements with local scholars, artists and curators interested in the materials of modern and contemporary art. This two-year collaboration is a project of the Neubauer Collegium for Culture and Society in partnership with the Gray Center for Arts and Inquiry.
