To celebrate the twenty-fifth anniversary of the Research and Academic Program (RAP) at the Clark, we are gathering for four days under the theme Writing Art History to think together about the ways in which writing art history is changing rapidly.  
 
The celebration begins with a conversation on RAP and its legacy in art history.

Speakers include Michael Ann Holly, Starr Director Emeritus of the Research and Academic Program, in conversation with David Breslin, Leonard A. Lauder Curator in Charge of the Department of Modern and Contemporary Art, Metropolitan Museum of Art, Darby English, Carl Darling Buck Professor of Art History, University of Chicago, Christopher Heuer, professor of Art History, University of Rochester, Mark Ledbury, Power Professor of Art History and Visual Culture and Director of the Power Institute, University of Sydney, Australia, and Mariët Westermann, director and CEO of the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum and Foundation.
