Chinese artist Wen Zhengming’s Red Cliff of 1558—a hanging scroll combining painting and calligraphy, now in the Detroit Institute of Arts—is one of his last works. The Red Cliff was a site along the middle stretch of the Yangzi River in central China, where fierce wars once took place.

This lecture explores Land Identity through the lens of personal experience, federal policies, and material culture. It examines how Indigenous people navigate cultural hybridity, assimilation, and the systemic forces that have sought to sever their ties to the land.

Please join us for an evening lecture featuring Rollo Whately, founder and director of Rollo Whately Ltd, one of London’s leading practices for historic frames, as he discusses how to identify original frames and the many considerations that go into selecting the right ones.
