Gallery Talk, Art and Faculty in Conversation

Hazel Carby, HON. 1989, the Charles C. and Dorathea S. Dilley Professor of African American Studies and of American Studies, and Elihu Rubin, B.A. 1999, Associate Professor of Urbanism at the Yale School of Architecture, recently participated in the selection of works to be installed in the Jane and Richard Levin Study Gallery. In an effort to establish the content of their classes in observational learning, both Yale faculty members use photographs and works on paper to examine the themes of representation, disfranchisement, and social history. In this conversation, moderated by Ryan Hill, the Nolen Curator of Education and Academic Affairs, Carby and Rubin discuss teaching from objects and the potential interplay between works of art in the Levin Study Gallery that are not typically displayed together.
