This fall, four doctoral students and five MA students traveled with professors Tenley Bick and Lorenzo Pericolo to Washington, DC, for the first FSU Art History Study Trip.

Miami-based Haitian American artist Edouard Duval-Carrié returned to FSU this month for discussions and social gatherings with faculty and students. He joined Paul Niell’s graduate seminar “Sacred Landscapes of Haiti and its Diaspora,” visited with Art History grad students over lunch in the Rose Library, and delivered a public lecture to share his creative and technical processes.
