Innovative Cross-Disciplinary Approaches to Art History

"We wish we had this at UC Berkeley"
On Friday, April 27, Chapman hosted the second annual Chapman Art History Symposium. Students from UC Berkeley, CSU Long Beach and Chapman University had an opportunity to present their most innovative and original work. Presentations spanned the chronological era from antiquity to modern, drawing from both eastern and western traditions; questions and comments made for a lively conversation.  It is so rare for undergraduate students to have a forum in which to professionally present their research to peers that UC Berkeley seniors Kirstina Borrman and Cameron McKee could not help but exclaim "we wish we had this at UC Berkeley!"
