On the eve of the Renaissance Society of America’s Annual Meeting here in New York, Renaissance Studies at the Graduate Center, CUNY is hosting a Dialogue between Serge Gruzinski (Princeton) and Alexander Nagel (Institute of Fine Arts, NYU) on the topic of Anachronic Renaissance / Global Renaissance.

Both are leaders and major theorists in their respective fields. Gruzinski (author of over 20 books) is best known for The Mestizo Mind: The Intellectual Dynamics of Colonization and Globalization, and Alex Nagel for a book he co-authored with Christopher Wood entitled Anachronic Renaissance, as well as The Controversy of Renaissance Art, awarded the 2012 Charles Rufus Morey Book Award from the College Art Association, and Medieval Modern: Art out of Time.

There will be a reception following the event to which all are invited.
