Featuring works from the collection, this installation includes a series of eight drypoint prints entitled Abu Ghraib Detainee Interview Project (2006) by Philadelphia-based artist Daniel Heyman.  Questioning whether, and if so, how, an ethical vocabulary can be adequate to address the realities and horrors of war, these works echo a strong printmaking tradition including Jacques Callot's The Miseries and Misfortunes of War (1633), and Francisco Goya's The Disasters of War (1810).

Join our friends at Labyrinth Books for a celebration and discussion with Susan Sidlauskas, author of Cézanne's Other: the Portraits of Hortense. Sidlauskas examines twenty-four oil portraits and offers a new take on one of the heroes of modernism and the "counter-muse" who, though scorned by critics of her day, inspired an extraordinary series of portraits.
