Sunday Object Talk - Julia Melfi

Sunday, April 7, 2013 at 2:00pm to 2:15pm

Allen Memorial Art Museum, King Sculpture Court
87 North Main Street, Oberlin, OH 44074

Julia Melfi '15 discusses the Dennis Oppenheim work "Pressure Piece" from 1970, currently on view in the Ellen Johnson Gallery as part of the exhibition "Religion, Ritual and Performance in Modern and Contemporary Art."

Offered most Sundays during the academic year, these talks are orientated specifically toward the casual visitor to the AMAM. Each talk focuses on one work in the collection or on view in a current exhibition, and lasts approximately 15 minutes plus questions. Conducted by an Oberlin College student docent, these talks are a fantastic opportunity to learn about new objects or revisit old ‘friends’ from the collection.
