Ciurej is a Chicago-based photographer and graphic designer. Lochman is a Milwaukee-based photographer and former art lecturer at 51. Together they create narrative works that engage the edge between the heroic and the commonplace through a confluence of history\, myth\, and popular culture. For them\, collaboration opens the possibility of moving beyond personal stories and into the realm of collective experience\, mirroring the fluid and mutable ways of storytelling traditions. \nBarbara Ciurej and Lindsay Lochman will present and discuss their work\, their collaborative process\, and the choice of the book form as one of their primary mediums. \nThe lecture\, free and open to the public\, is supported by the Ettinger Family Foundation. \nThe lecture will be held on Wednesday\, November 20\, 2024 at 6 p.m. in the fourth floor Conference Center of the Golda Meir Library\, 2311 E. Hartford Ave. \nFor more information or accommodations\, email libspecial@uwm.edu. \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  URL:/libraries/event/2024-ettinger-lecture/ LOCATION:Fourth Floor Conference Center\, Golda Meir Library CATEGORIES:Alumni & Community,Arts and Culture,Faculty and Staff,Front Page Event,Lectures Conferences and Symposiums,Public,Students,51 Campus Events X-TRIBE-STATUS: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20241127T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20241127T210000 DTSTAMP:20260421T161420 CREATED:20240708T191624Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240708T191624Z UID:10000167-1732734000-1732741200@uwm.edu SUMMARY:Great Books Virtual Roundtable Discussion: Marcel Proust\, Within a Budding Grove DESCRIPTION:Marcel Proust\n“Seascape\, with Frieze of Girls” Part II\, from Within a Budding Grove\, volume 2 of Proust’s In Search of Lost Time (Remembrance of Things Past) (1919) \nNo expertise or prerequisites are required. We only ask that you read the selected text. \nINSTRUCTIONS FOR THE ZOOM SESSION \nIf you think you will be attending the session\, please send Max Yela an email (maxyela@uwm.edu) about your intention to attend (even if you decide not to attend later). He will accept notices of intent until 5:00 p.m.\, Nov. 27. Between 6:30 and 6:45 on the day of our discussion\, Nov. 27\, you will receive an email from him with an automatic password-protected URL. Please use that URL to join the session (you will of course need to use a computer with a microphone and a video camera in it — if you want to be seen\, that is). When you join\, you will be placed in a waiting room that Max will be monitoring to allow attendees into the session. Only those he has emailed will be allowed into the session. This process is intended to maximize the security of the meeting. \nThese discussions are free and open to the public. \nPart of the purpose of the Great Books Roundtable Discussions is to illustrate the pedagogical method of shared inquiry. Another purpose is to disseminate an understanding and appreciation of the philosophy of great books education on the 51 campus. It was the assertion of the former Great Books Program that its methodology and philosophical approach toward the study of foreign languages\, mathematics\, history\, and great books offers a challenging\, meaningful\, and useful Liberal Arts education. \nSpecial Collections serves as host for the Roundtable Discussions in support of these educational goals. Special Collections’ programs\, services\, and policy of free\, open\, and equal access to all its collections have close affinities to the former Great Books Program’s vision of a vigorous Liberal Arts education and its method of shared inquiry. \nMore information on the program can be found on the Special Collections Great Books Roundtable Discussions webpage.
