SUMMARY:Lecture - Faces of Power: Stories Behind Portraits on Greek and Roman Coins
DESCRIPTION:Faces of Power: Stories Behind Portraits on Greek and Roman Coins\nAncient Greek and Roman coins preserve some of the most widespread portraits from antiquity\, showing how rulers wanted to be seen by their people and how artistic styles changed over the centuries. As the main way ordinary people saw the faces of kings\, emperors\, and rulers\, coins remain key evidence for understanding ancient propaganda\, political symbols\, and portrait styles. The relevance of this topic clear by the debate today about who should appear on modern currency\, from Queen Elizabeth II to proposals for a coin showing a portrait of President Trump. \nLectures are offered free with the cost of daily admission: \n\nArt+ Museum Members: Free\nNot-Yet-Members: $25\nCollege Students: Free\n\nRSVP for this program \nUte Wartenberg is the Sydney F. Martin Executive Director of the American Numismatic Society (ANS). During her time at the ANS\, the institution has grown into one of the world’s leading numismatic institutions\, with an outstanding team of researchers and staff. A Rhodes Scholar\, she earned her D.Phil. in Classics from Oxford. \nA distinguished scholar and prolific author specializing in ancient Greek coinage\, Wartenberg served as Curator of Greek Coins at the British Museum (1991–1998) before joining ANS. She has taught at Oxford University and Columbia University and lectured across Europe and the US. Her curatorial work includes numerous exhibitions\, most recently “When Coinage was born.” Treasures from Zhuyuetang Collection\, which opened at the Casa de la Moneda in Madrid in 2025. Her current research projects involve a monograph on Persian coinage\, the publication of Electrum Coins in the Hellenic National Museum in Athens\, and the publication of the excavation coins of the Kerameikos in Athens (with Selene Psoma). \nWartenberg chaired the US Citizens Coinage Advisory Committee (2003–2007); currently serves as President of the International Numismatic Council (since 2022)\, was Chair of ICOMON (2019–2022)\, and is on the board of the Saint-Gaudens Memorial and the Glyptothek in Munich. \n  \nImage Caption: Deified head of Alexander the Great (bound with royal fillet\, wearing ram horn of Ammon).

SUMMARY:Artist Lecture - Radical Softness: The Responsive Art of Janet Echelman
DESCRIPTION:Radical Softness: The Responsive Art of Janet Echelman\nJoin us for a lecture with Janet Echelman\, an artist featured in the exhibition Avant Garde: Remarkable Women in the Permanent Collection. Echelman creates experiential sculpture at the scale of buildings that transform with wind and light. The art shifts from being an object you look at\, to something you can get lost in. Her work defies categorization as it intersects disciplinary boundaries\, from Sculpture\, Architecture\, and Urban Design to Material Science\, Computer Science\, Engineering\, and Performance. Using unlikely materials from knotted fiber and atomized water particles to choreographed dancers\, Echelman combines ancient craft with original computational design software to create artworks that have become focal points for urban life on five continents. \nSponsored by Carey Forward Foundation\nLectures are offered free with the cost of daily admission: \n\nArt+ Museum Members: Free\nNot-Yet-Members: $25\nCollege Students: Free\n\nRSVP for this program \nJanet Echelman sculpts at the scale of buildings and city blocks\, creating large-scale\, fluid installations that merge art\, architecture\, and engineering to anchor public spaces across five continents five continents. Her work transforms with wind and light\, inviting viewers into immersive experiences rather than static observation. Echelman uses unlikely materials—from atomized water particles to fiber stronger than steel—blending traditional craft with advanced computational design. Echelman’s unconventional path includes five years living in a Balinese village\, graduate studies in both painting and psychology\, and teaching at MIT\, Harvard\, and Princeton. Oprah ranked Echelman’s work #1 on her List of 50 Things That Make You Say Wow!\, and she received the Guggenheim Fellowship\, and the Smithsonian American Ingenuity Award in Visual Arts\, honoring “the greatest innovators in America today.” For more information visit www.echelman.com \n  \nImage Caption: Photograph by Amy Martz

SUMMARY:Antiquities Lecture: When Women Ruled The World
DESCRIPTION:When Women Ruled The World \nA woman’s power in the ancient world (and much of human history) was always compromised from the outset\, but who were the women who once ruled the richest and most successful state of the ancient Mediterranean during the Bronze Age? Ancient Egyptian female kings\, including Hatshepsut and Nefertiti\, really did rule against all odds. Given this social reality in the ancient world\, how then did women negotiate roles or power and authority? Addressing some of the causes of social inequality in this lecture\, Prof. Kara Cooney will go beyond myth and legend to shed light on these female pharaohs and reveal their historical legacy. \nSponsored by Charles & Elizabeth Lyman\nLectures are offered free with the cost of daily admission: \n\nArt+ Museum Members: Free\nNot-Yet-Members: $25\nCollege Students: Free\n\nRSVP for this program \nKara Cooney is a professor of ancient Egyptian art and architecture and chair of the Department of Near Eastern Languages and Cultures at the University of California\, Los Angeles. Specializing in social history\, gender studies\, and economies of the ancient world\, she received her PhD in Egyptology from Johns Hopkins University. Her books include The Woman Who Would Be King: Hatshepsut’s Rise to Power in Ancient Egypt\, When Women Ruled the World: Six Queens of Egypt\, and The Good Kings: Absolute Power in Ancient Egypt and the Modern World.
