  • AI and Education: How to Navigate with Generative AI

    Ai Kamei

    The School of Education Instructional Technology Committee is happy to announce a free webinar about artificial intelligence and its effect on the educational landscape, which will be hosted by Ai Kamei, Ph.D.

    How can we navigate through an AI-infused future in education? While it’s true that tools like ChatGPT do present genuine challenges for educators, they also offer a chance to reconsider and update our current teaching methods. In this Zoom PD session, we will discuss how we can use generative AI like ChatGPT to update our current practice to support students to thrive in the AI era. Through this PD session, the participants will identify the pedagogical shifts necessary to meet student needs in the AI era, explore tools to save time planning lessons, writing emails, conducting research, and discuss the implications of AI on policies.

    Join Us on Zoom (Nov. 27, 12 p.m.)

  • Guajiros Retratos de Otoño, an exhibition of work by Lázaro Niebla

    Lázaro Niebla, a resident of Trinidad de Cuba, documents the connection to the past through reverse woodcut portraits of those that understand it best: his elders. His process begins by collecting discarded colonial window panels that were used to protect the homes in Trinidad de Cuba during the Spanish colonization. He then photographs his subjects, capturing them in a spontaneous moment. Working off of his photograph, Lázaro meticulously carves layer after layer from the repurposed panel, exposing the perfectly preserved wood under the surface. Using acrylic paint, Lázaro adds touches of color to the piece, choosing to leave the skin of the subject wood tone — connecting the person he has chosen to portray to the material that he has chosen to work with. The life of the tree, the window shutter, the home it protected, the subject portrayed, and the artist are all represented in each piece of art.

    Artist Demonstration: September 27 from 6pm – 8pm |Great Hall Auditorium
    Lázaro Niebla, Cuban wood sculptor, explains his concept, technique, tools and cultural aspects of his work.  He’ll show an example of a work in progress and how he accomplishes the carved details of his subjects to create the multi-dimensional texture of his works.

    NEW!!! Opening Reception – RESCHEDULED FOR November 10 from 6pm – 8 pm | Pollak Gallery
    Please join us for a meet and greet with the artist!

  • Meet the Beatles

  • The Immortals: The Wonder of The Museo Egizio

    This documentary is a journey among the most beautiful archaeological finds Egypt has left us.

    Kha, architect and builder of tombs for the pharaohs, must undertake the journey to the Underworld. Telling us the story of his voyage is Jeremy Irons, in the guise of a narrator. His words take us inside the secret world of Egyptian mythology, religion and funerary culture, interweaving the story with the history of the oldest museum in the world, the Museo Egizio in Turin, founded in 1824 and will soon be celebrating its 200th anniversary. In fact, the Kha’s own Tomb is to be found in Turin along with the most complete and most valuable private collection of grave goods outside of Egypt.

    A journey along the Nile , among the most beautiful archaeological finds Egypt has left us, the magnificent monuments of Giza, Luxor, Karnak, to the Valley of the Kings and the workers’ village of Deir el-Medina, the story told by Irons follows the tracks of Italian explorers and archaeologists – their itineraries also leading to the exhibition halls of the Cairo Museum, the Ägyptischen Museum in Berlin, the British Museum in London and the Louvre in Paris.

    From Ramesses II in Turin, to the treasure of Tutankhamun in Cairo, the bust of Nefertiti in Berlin, the Red Scribe in the Louvre, and the Rosetta Stone in London.

    Featuring: Jeremy Irons 
    Estimated runtime: 86 minutes

  • TITIAN: THE EMPIRE OF COLOR

    Winning over popes and emperors with his iconic, revolutionary works Titian succeeded in becoming one of the artists that symbolized the entire Renaissance.

    Titian was an extraordinary master of color and a brilliant entrepreneur, innovative both in a painting’s composition but also in how to sell it. In only a few years, Tiziano Vecellio became the official painter of Venice and the utmost artist sought after by the richest and most influential Courts in Europe.

    From Ferrara to Urbino, from Mantua to Rome, up to the Spain of Carlos V and his son Felipe II, Titian crossed his century illuminating it with his works of art, inspiring future generations of artists. Perfect interpreter of religion and mythology, portrayer of immediate expressive strength, he dominated his time outshining his contemporaries, always abiding by his motto: ‘Art is more powerful than Nature’.

    Special guest: Jeff Koons
