Feminism Meets Art History 1944/2024 is an upcoming research seminar organized by the Paul Mellon Centre. The event will feature a thought-provoking presentation by Griselda Pollock, Professor Emerita of Social and Critical Histories of Art at the University of Leeds. The seminar will delve into the intriguing story of Helen Rosenau, a Jewish refugee and feminist social historian of art, who revolutionized the field of art history in 1944 with her groundbreaking book, "Woman in Art". This remarkable publication offered a fresh perspective by examining the role of women as a symbolic form in art, challenging conventional narratives and incorporating artworks by both women and men. Surprisingly, just six years later, Ernst Gombrich, a Viennese refugee, presented a frauen-rein (women-free) "story" of artists, highlighting a contradiction in the field. Griselda Pollock will explore the reasons behind this historical amnesia and the subsequent failure to acknowledge Rosenau's significant contributions. By examining the rich feminist context surrounding Rosenau's work, Pollock aims to restore the cultural analysis chain that has been broken over time. This research seminar promises to shed light on the complexities of feminist thinking about art and culture and the challenges faced when writing inclusive and self-challenging histories. Griselda Pollock, renowned for her expertise in feminist art history and cultural analysis, was awarded the Holberg Prize in 2020 and the CAA Lifetime Achievement Award for Writing on Art in 2023. The seminar will take place at the Paul Mellon Centre in London on January 24, 2024, and will also be available online. Admission to this fascinating event is free.

On May 21, I took the elderly to visit the British Museum, and the tour guide service was warm and professional. If you visit the museum without a tour guide, it may be completed in half an hour. The main reason is that the historical geography has not been learned well. Under the tour guide&#39;s explanation, the three hours feel very fast. This is the second time I have decided to come to the British Museum for the tour guide service of Trip.com . I still feel that the meaning is still not enough. The first time I came, I also decided that the tour guide service of Trip.com was very good.

🏰 Westminster Abbey, it&#39;s really shocking! 📍 It&#39;s located in central London, close to the Parliament Building and Big Ben. The church is a prominent representation of British Gothic architecture, towering spires, exquisite carvings and beautifully painted glass windows, each detail shows an unparalleled artistic charm. Walking into the church, as if through time and space, is the holy place of the crowning of the British royal family, witnessing countless important moments in history. It is also a resting place for many celebrities, and great figures such as Newton, Darwin, Dickens have slept here, making people respect their contributions. Walking around, you can feel the solemnity of religion and the deep historical and cultural heritage. The church&#39;s Henry VII chapel is exquisite, with a fan-shaped arched roof and densely carved decorations, like a fairy tale fairyland. Whether it is an architecture lover or a historical and cultural fan, Westminster Abbey is definitely worth a visit. I believe you will be deeply impressed by its charm like me. 💕 highly recommend it to everyone! 💕

London Eye (The London Eye), full name British Airways London Eye, located on the banks of the Thames in London, UK, is the world&#39;s first and largest viewing Ferris wheel as of 2005, and is one of London&#39;s landmarks and famous tourist attractions.

Windsor Castle

The Queen&#39;s favorite palace is very luxurious inside, but you are not allowed to take photos, you can only take photos outside. When I entered, I took a photo but was stopped by the staff. Knowing the daily life of the royal family, Windsor Castle is generally very quiet.
