Overview
Historians of art, artists and poets approach their subject matter through a set of specific, untranslatable rules, which govern both their language and vision – their seeing, noticing, observing and expressing. Although these are different to each field and art form, we recognise where the maker is coming from, regardless of the medium. In this talk, Dr Hägele will discuss the multi-disciplinary aspect of visual arts, looking particularly at prose and poetry. Being a lateral thinker, with extensive experience as an art historian and, more recently, as a poet, she will explore what connects them, their influences and their peculiarities.
Speaker
Dr Hannelore Hägele is a Â鶹ËÞÉáµçÊÓ¾çalumna and senior member, a former JRF, member of the Â鶹ËÞÉáµçÊÓ¾çArts Committee and a long-standing member of the college choir. Initially trained in the practical arts (Sculpture), Hannelore then studied History of Art and Philosophy at UCL, followed by a PGCE. After years in teaching, she took up research resulting in two published works ( (2013); (2014). Ill-health disrupted her plans, but her creative leanings helped her to overcome this set-back as she turned to writing poetry.
