Art History Major and Minor

Michael Dixon, associate professor and chair of art and art history, has drawn from personal experience to create the kind of art he wants, and needs, to create. His recent residency at the prestigious Yaddo retreat in upstate New York allowed him to explore his work in an even deeper way.

“I have always been interested in both sciences and arts, but I could never find a way of combining my two passions,” writes Liliya Chernysheva, ’19. “Choosing just one path always seemed to me like a terrible mistake. So it was great, this past summer, to work with math professor Dave Reimann on a mathematical art research project.”
