Collecting Empire and Chinese art: Coy James Lecture Oct. 4

We invite you to join us for the History department’s annual Coy James memorial lecture, Wednesday, October 4th, 4:30 pm, Bobbitt Auditorium. This year’s invited speaker is Dr. Ian Shin, assistant professor of history and American culture at the University of Michigan. Dr. Shin will speak on “Collecting Empire: Chinese Art and U.S. Imperial Stewardship in the Early Twentieth Century”. In the early twentieth century, Americans grew more curious about and connected to the world, while simultaneously dominating vast expanses of the globe in Asia, the Pacific Ocean, and the Caribbean. Dr. Shin will examine why and how Americans collected Chinese art and antiquities to theorize ‘stewardship’ as a mode of U.S. empire – not only over China, but also over other parts of the world. Please join us! Refreshments will be served.
