University at Buffalo Humanities Institute and Hallwalls present

Scholars at Hallwalls

2011—12 SCHOLARS AT HALLWALLS SCHEDULE

Scholars at Hallwalls features eight thought-provoking, award-winning lectures in the humanities, presented in the intellectual and inspiring setting of Hallwalls.

Friday September 23, 2011 marks the start of this new era for Humanities Institute.  The venue is new but the format continues the successful model established in three years at the Albright-Knox.  Faculty Fellows will present their cutting-edge humanities research in terms accessible to those in other disciplines and outside academia.  The events will continue to be social occasions as well, with complimentary hors d’oeuvres and a cash bar. All lectures are free and open to the public.

Marla Hlady
Walls


For the past twenty years, objects and sound have played an ongoing and intimate part in the practice of Toronto artist Marla Hlady. Often, a rigorous and seemingly solid sculptural form has been injected with an element of seemingly spontaneous action—which generates its own sound score—as well as pre-recorded sound elements introduced innocuously into fabricated objects. There has often been a duality between the desire to contain and shape sound and motion and the impulse to let it find its own self-actualizing space.
