How do artists help shape our conceptions of American cultural icons?

Featuring Michelle Robinson
Associate Professor, Department of American Studies

Join us for a virtual version of Art for Lunch, our interview-style talk with the Ackland’s Elizabeth Manekin and a UNC-Chapel Hill faculty member whose classes engage with the Museum’s collection. This week, associate professor of American Studies Michelle Robinson joins us to discuss how her class “The Emergence of American Culture” uses objects in the Ackland’s collection to ask how artists help shape our conception of American cultural icons.
