FW: Reminder: Faculty Lecture Series: Wednesday, April 18 at 3pm

 

 

Dear Cuesta College Community:

 

Please remember that there will be a Faculty Lecture this Wednesday:

The View from the Mellah: Imagining the former Jewish quarter of Fez, Morocco

By Art History Faculty Member Michelle Craig

Wednesday, April 18, 3:00-3:50 p.m.

Room 2608 (the new instructional building!)

Please see the attached flyer and feel free to post and distribute in your area

 

Description

Dr. Michelle H. Craig teaches art history and art appreciation courses in the Fine Arts Division at Cuesta College. She specializes in African and Islamic art histories. Her fieldwork has been based in Morocco since 2006; her research examines the architecture and photographic representations of the mellah, the former Jewish quarter, of Fez. The UNESCO World Heritage Centre of Fez was founded in 808CE and is considered a "living medieval city". The mellah was inhabited by the fifteenth century, but its architecture largely dates to the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, making an anomaly in a city praised for its medieval qualities. This presentation explores how mellah's present form celebrates its Jewish past, reflects the failed experiments of French colonization (1912-1956), and partially meets the needs of its current Muslim inhabitants. 

 

Questions about the lecture should be addressed to Lara Baxley at lbaxley@cuesta.edu
