New Perspectives Lecture: Credible Testimony and Gender-Based Violence

I was given the opportunity to deliver a New Perspectives lecture at Washington University’s Mildred Lane Kemper Art Museum, using two prints from the Kemper’s collection — Sue Coe’s photolithograph “Thank You America” (1991) and Adrian Piper’s serigraph “Let’s Talk” (1994) — as points of focus for thinking through the representation of gender-based violence and survivor testimony in visual art.
