Lectures
The (Re)cited Garden: Chinese Gardens, Memory, and Identity, 10/16/25
|
The Verostko Center for the Arts and the Loe Center for China Studies at Saint Vincent College were pleased to host a free public lecture by Carol Brash, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Art History at the College of Saint Benedict and Saint John's University in Collegeville, Minnesota, on the topic “The (Re)cited Garden.” Dr. Brash’s talk examined how designers of Chinese-style gardens in the United States confront the tension between historical memory and contemporary identity, weaving together art, history, and cross-cultural belonging.
