Dr. Broucke's reconstruction |
The Pantheon in Rome ranks among the most
celebrated monuments of Classical Antiquity. Yet many questions regarding its
design and construction remain. In this lecture, Dr. Pieter Broucke, Middlebury
College, will explore and reconstruct this enigmatic building’s various phases
of design and construction. This talk is co-sponsored with the University of Minnesota Department of
Art History and Weisman Art Museum.
About the speaker: Pieter Broucke is a professor of History of Art and
Architecture and the the Director of the Arts at Middlebury College. He holds a
PhD from Yale in History of Art and Architecture, an MA in Archaeology from the
University of Minnesota, and a Professional Degree in Architecture from Ghent,
in his native Belgium. He is delighted to return to the Twin Cities.
Please note that there will be time for questions after the talk, but there will not be an AIA-MN dinner with Professor Broucke.
