A DISCURSIVE OFFSHOOT OF MY RESEARCH ON MOYRA DAVEY’S WRITING STRATEGIES

A free, eight-session summer reading group that explored some of the ways that visual art and writing come face to face. We read texts by artists and scholars, reflected on interdisciplinary relationships, and wrote our own experimental drafts. Organized by writer and critic Bea Huff Hunter and Gina DeCagna, Van Doren Engagement Fellow, the group met for focused conversations and writing exercises in inspiring spaces at the University of Pennsylvania, complemented by online discussion.
