Unlocked | Model Shock w/ Emmelyn Butterfield-Rosen (NM48)
Emmelyn Butterfield-Rosen, art historian and associate director at the Clark Art Institute, explores how late-19th-century art reinvented what it means to be human. She discusses Seurat’s frontal figures, shifts in posture as signs of consciousness, links between media, dance, and mechanistic metaphors, and parallels between historical art practices and today’s mediated bodies.
