ART SEMINAR GROUP ONLINE PROGRAM
Vermeer – The Greatest Exhibition, Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam, 10 February – 4 June 2023
Chris Boicos, professor of art history for the University of Southern California Paris program and founder (2007) and main lecturer for Paris Art Studies
Johannes Vermeer (1632-1675) lived and worked in Delft. His work is best known for his tranquil, introverted indoor scenes, his unprecedented use of bright, colorful light and his near-photographic illusionism.
Utilizing the tools of creative writing and bio-ethnography, this workshop will help writers mine their lived experiences of suffering and celebration against the backdrop of historical/current events and curate stories and/or poetry of liberation and resilience to serve as a call to whole-being.

The goal of this workshop is to introduce participants to various methods of writing creatively using archival materials as inspiration. While we often think of archives as places where research—in that most academic sense—occurs, archival documents can also be source material for creative inspiration. Although some writers may be familiar with techniques like erasure, workshop participants will explore other forms of “textual manipulation,” “archival ekphrasis,” methods inspired by Indigenous ledger art, and methods for combining archival research with field work to inspire writing.
