Professor Mónica Domínguez Torres and alumnus Alan Braddock will both be presenting papers at the symposium, "Picture Ecology: Art and Ecocriticism in Planetary Perspective" on December 7-8, 2018 at 10 McCosh Hall, Princeton University.

The exhibition was co-curated by Braddock, and Ph.D. candidate Jeffrey Richmond-Moll served as Curatorial Research Associate.
Alan Braddock is the Ralph H. Wark Associate Professor of Art History and American Studies at the College of William & Mary, and will present his paper, "Mestizo Mnemonics: Diego de Valadés, Rhetorica Christiana, and the Earthly Art of Memory." Associate Professor and Director of Undergraduate Studies Mónica Domínguez Torres will present her paper, "Pearls for the King: Philip II and the New World Pearl Industry."
