War, Revolution, and the Heart of China, 1937–1948: The Herman Collection of Modern Chinese WoodcutsThis exhibition, an in-depth examination of the modern woodcut movement in the decades leading up to the founding of the People’s Republic of China, will be the first time that one of Picker Art Gallery’s most singular and important collections will be shown in its entirety.The Herman Collection of Modern Chinese Woodcuts contains over 200 works made in China between 1937 and 1948. They were given to The Picker Art Gallery by Professor Emeritus Theodore Herman, who lived in the country during this period, and his wife, Evelyn Mary Chen Shiying Herman. Professor Herman taught at Colgate from 1954 to 1981 in the Geography Department and was the founding director of the Peace and Conflict Studies Program.Coinciding with the 75th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China in 1949, the exhibition of the Herman collection is an extraordinary resource for the study of Chinese art and of pre-Liberation history. The prints in the exhibition can be seen as direct links to the historical events taking place in China in the years leading up to Liberation. Images made between 1937 and 1945 in areas controlled by the Chinese Nationalist forces during the Second Sino-Japanese War chronicle the progress of the war and promoted good relations between the army and the people; others, produced in the areas controlled by the Communist Red Army, encourage resistance against the Japanese but also illustrate how Chinese society could be transformed through socialism; those prints produced during the Civil War expose many injustices amid the post-war social and political upheavals. Finally, many of the images in the exhibition explore wide-ranging subjects and a variety of techniques that offer glimpses into quotidian Chinese life during this period.This exhibition is curated by Leslie Ann Eliet. - 10:00 AM7hWar, Revolution, and the Heart of China, 1937-1948The Arts | Picker Art Gallery, Dana Arts Center, 2nd floor

The Native American Studies Program is hosting a presentation by Eric Gansworth, Eel clan, enrolled Onondaga, born and raised at the Tuscarora Nation.The term "Apple" is a slur in Native communities across the country. It's for someone supposedly "red on the outside, white on the inside." In his poetic, illustrated memoir, Apple: Skin to the Core, Eric Gansworth tells his story, the story of his family - of Onondaga among Tuscaroras - of Native folks everywhere. From the horrible legacy of the government boarding schools, to a boy watching his siblings leave and return and leave again, to a young man fighting to be an artist -- literary and visual -- who balances multiple worlds. As he covers these topics, Gansworth discusses common slurs against Indigenous Americans, shattering and reclaiming "Apple" in verse, prose and imagery that truly lives up to the word heartbreaking.This event is open to the Colgate community and the public.Co-sponsored by the Colgate Arts Council, the Fund for the Study of the World’s Religions, the Department of English, Core Communities, and the ALANA Cultural Center - 4:30 PM1h 30mApple: Skin to the CoreToday's Events | Persson Hall, 027, Auditorium

Sometimes framed as a vital inheritance, sometimes as an object of nostalgia, and still other times as a relic of backwardness, the Ottoman past has long been an object of debate and contestation in 20th century Turkey. In this talk, "Scaling Heritage: Urban Governance and Struggles Over the Ottoman Past in Istanbul," Timur Hammond looks at one especially important moment in that debate: the district of Eyüp in the 1990s and 2000s. Looking at the changing role of municipal governance, Hammond both shows how these urban debates mirrored broader cultural fault lines and offers a more nuanced reading of the motivations behind municipal actors’ conservation efforts.Timur Hammond is an associate professor in the Department of Geography and the Environment at Syracuse University. A cultural and urban geographer, he has published widely on topics including Turkey’s July 2016 coup attempt, the artist and scholar Ahmet Süheyl Ünver, and the geographies of translation. His first book, Placing Islam: Geographies of Connection in 20th Century Istanbul, was published open access in 2023 by the University of California Press.This event is part of the Middle Eastern Cities in Conflict series organized by the Peace and Conflcit Studies Program. It is cosponsored by the Middle Eastern and Islamic Studies program, the geography department, and the architecture concentration in art and art history. - 4:30 PM1h 30mScaling Heritage in IstanbulToday's Events | Alumni Hall, 111
