Getty graduate conference


A long day of graduate art history papers from nine Californian universities - and our representative, Margot Yale, did us proud.  There were many more people than one can see here (and those empty chairs on the platform are for the conversations that followed each of the three groups of papers) - I don't know why it looks so sparse!  As always, the Getty Research Institute organized this splendidly (and fed us well).  And outside, Bird of Paradise flowers, and (though on this visit, I only grabbed a very quick look) a Guerrilla Girls exhibit.  Despite the admin that kept hurtling into my inbox like a rattle of little pebbles against a window pane, it was wonderful to be immersed in a range of very different research projects for the day (although nothing between the C12th and the C20th!).
