Enjoy a complimentary cup of La Colombe coffee and join Penn History of Art PhD and PennDesign MFA candidates for an intimate conversation inspired by the ICA exhibitions on view.

Jeanne Dreskin, Penn History of Art PhD candidate, leads a conversation that posits reading and writing as a continual feedback loop of consumption and production. Prompted by the ICA exhibition Moyra Davey: Burn the Diaries, the discussion will unpack the circular relationship, both verbal and visual, instigated by the respective roles played by the diary and the photograph in Davey’s work.
