RESEARCH CENTER LECTURE PROGRAM
Visualizing Invisibility: Abbott Thayer and Camouflage
In the early 1900s, the painter Abbott Handerson Thayer created controversy when he claimed that camouflage was universal--that animal coloration of every kind served a concealing purpose. This talk will explore the artistic strategies that Thayer used to prove his eccentric theories, which endeavored to overcome the pictorial conundrum of representing invisibility, but carried troubling social implications beyond the animal world.

ADULT LEARNING PROGRAM CO-PRESENTED WITH THE NEW MEXICO LAWYERS FOR THE ARTS
The Mystery of Art Theft
Just how does someone sneak into a high-security museum, take a famous painting off the wall and ferry it away into the night? And then what? Isn't it kind of tricky to sell something like that on the black market? Art lovers and crime buffs alike will find something interesting in the talk by Judah Best, a member of the Board of the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum, a lawyer with the firm Dewey & LeBoeuf who has represented a number of high profile clients in criminal proceedings in Washington, D.C. and elsewhere. Best will discuss famous art theft cases from museums, castles, and just plain homes, how stolen works are eventually identified, and answer your questions on how to protect your art. The program has been presented at the Smithsonian, at Laguna College of Art & Design (Laguna Beach, California), in Boston for the American College of Trial Lawyers, the site of the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum theft, and in Bilbao, Spain, site of the Guggenheim Museum.

Visual Storytelling: A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words
Stories can be told with images as well as with words. Explore ways to construct a story non-verbally, using only your illustrations to express action and movement in your tale. Bring your preferred materials for sketching, doodling and exercising your imagination in order to work your themes onto paper.
