Spring Art History Lecture
Hollins University 7916 Williamson Road , Roanoke, Virginia 24019
The spring guest lecturer in art history is Karen Leader, assistant professor at Florida Atlantic University. Professor Leader will show and discuss her film on Tattoo Culture at Florida Atlantic University. “Tattoos are primarily a visual medium, but as a living art, they are a collaboration between the tattoo artist, the tattooed person, and the rest of the world of encounters, of reactions, of changed circumstances. The permanence of tattoos suggests that their meanings are as fluid as the life experiences of their bearers.” http://storiesontheskin.org/
