DESCRIPTION:Bookwork:\nMedium to Concept to Object to Art\na Beatty Memoria
 l Lecture by\nGarrett Stewart\, James O. Freedman Professor of\nLetters\, 
 Iowa University\n\nProf. Stewart is an international leader in the field o
 f\nintermedial studies today\, whose work sits at the crossroads of the\nd
 isciplines of painting\, literature\, cinema and photography. His\nlandmar
 k study\, The Look of Reading (Chicago 2006)\,\nprovided the first full-sc
 ale interpretation of the place of text\nin the western painterly traditio
 n. His current project\, from which\nhis talk will be drawn\, concerns the
  increasingly compelling\nposition of the book within the field of contemp
 orary art.\nAs Stewart will discuss\, artists are drawn today with growing
 \nfrequency to the book’s fragile medial presence as a source of\ngreat vi
 sual inspiration\, in the process profoundly altering our\nunderstanding o
 f the meaning of both the book and the work of art.\nIn Stewart’s terms\, 
 the “bookwork” of such bibliobjets encourages\nus to reflect on the techno
 logical legacies of literacy and the\ncritical contribution of visual repr
 esentation to our understanding\nof the meaning of reading.\n\nTo be follo
 wed by a reception.\n
