Daemen College: Lecture

The Sister Jeanne File Art History Lecture Series opens on Thursday, October 3rd at 7:00 PM in room V20 of the Haberman Gacioch Center for Visual and Performing Arts at Daemen College.  This is the fourth year of the series, honoring the former Art Historian and one of the founders of the College, affectionately known as Sister Jeanne.

For the inaugural lecture, Dr. Claire L. Kovacs, Assistant Professor of Art History and Program Director of the Art History program at Canisius College will speak on the drawings of Edgar Degas with a talk entitled“Degas’ Vingt Dessins: A Retrospective-Reproduction.”

Dr. Kovacs received her PhD in art history from the University of Iowa, where her line of investigation was 19th century French art and its Italian counterparts.  Before coming to Canisius in 2011, Dr. Kovacs was a postdoctoral fellow in modern and contemporary art and visiting professor at Coe College in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.
