THE ROBERTA AND RICHARD HUBER COLLOQUIUM ON THE ARTS AND VISUAL CULTURE OF SPAIN AND THE COLONIAL AMERICAS
The Roberta and Richard Huber Colloquium on the Arts and Visual Culture of Spain and the Colonial Americas is approaching its twentieth year. This series of lectures and panel discussions held two to three times per semester brings scholars from the U.S. and abroad to explore art historical and broader contextual subjects relating to the arts as well as the visual and material cultures of Spain, from ancient to modern time periods, and the Spanish and Portuguese-speaking Americas from the first Contact era to the nineteenth century. Founded by Professors Jonathan Brown, Robert Lubar and Edward Sullivan, the Colloquium is now organized by Professor Sullivan.
The Colloquium has been successful in enhancing the strength of the fields of Spanish and Portuguese arts from the virtually all time periods. Spanish art history has been a traditional strong suit of the Institute from its founding in the late 1920s under the directorship of Walter W.S. Cook, an eminent Hispanist. In recent years we have hosted several distinguished alumni of the Institute as speakers. They include Nuno Senos, professor at the Universidade Nova de Lisboa and Jeffrey Schrader, professor at the University of Colorado, Denver. Curators from the Metropolitan Museum, The Hispanic Society and The Frick Collection (among other museums) have presented their research at the Colloquium, as have faculty members from universities throughout the U.S., South America, the Caribbean and Europe.
The Colloquium is the product of the generosity and continuing support of Roberta and Richard Huber, and we thank them heartily for making the current year’s activities possible.
