In this three-part exhibition tour series, different speakers offer perspectives on Guillaume Lethière that fall outside of the traditional art historian’s point of view.
In part one of the series, Gerald Alexis, former director of the National Museum of Haiti, shares his unique viewpoint on the exhibition.
The second talk takes place on September 4 and spotlights Brian Martin, Williams College Professor of French and Comparative Literature. The final talk takes place on October 9 and features author-photographer and documentarian Daniel Goudrouffe of Williams College.
