Walter Frederick Osborne (Irish, 1859–1903), At the Breakfast Table, 1894, oil on canvas, 20 x 24 inches (canvas). Donald and Marilyn Keough Foundation, 2019.029Starting with the Raclin Murphy Museum of Art’s own Walter Osborne painting At the Breakfast Table, Milligan considers the family life of the artist following the death of his sister, Violet, in childbirth in 1893. She brings to light the material and social conditions of daily life in Rathmines, the prosperous Dublin suburb where they lived, and situates the work within the context of painted depictions of domesticity in the late nineteenth century. Kathryn Milligan is assistant librarian at the Edward Murphy Library, National College of Art and Design in Dublin. She studied art history at University College, Dublin, and earned her Ph.D. from Trinity College. As an independent art historian specializing in nineteenth- and twentieth- century Irish art, she focuses on the depiction of Dublin and the city as a site of exhibition, display, and artistic exchange. She is the author of the acclaimed book, Painting Dublin, 1886–1949: Visualising a Changing City (Manchester University Press, 2020) and the essay “At the Breakfast Table: Walter Osborne, Family Life and the Interior Scene” in the present exhibition catalogue. Before the lecture in the atrium, we encourage you to explore Walter Osborne’s work on view in the Temporary Exhibition Galleries on Level 2. The exhibition will remain open until the lecture begins.

Classics in the BrowningDirected by Cecilia VicuñaNot Rated, 54 minutesIn Spanish with English subtitlesCecilia Vicuña is scheduled to appear on campus at the Sandeen Memorial Poetry Reading on September 10.In this self-described "documentary-poem," Vicuña returns to the beaches of Concón, Chile, which is the birthplace of her artmaking, where the sea is dying and an ancient tradition is being wiped out. Concón—facing the tallest mountain in the Western Hemisphere, Aconcagua—is home to a cultural heritage extending back thousands of years. Over centuries, the sonido rajado ("torn sound"), a powerful and unique indigenous sound, emerged. Revisiting the site, Vicuña explores the connections between her own art and these ancient music and oral traditions, while witnessing the ecological and cultural destruction of a place generated by the oil refinery built in Concón in the 1950s.

LangWith Robert Stadlober, Fritz Karl, Franziska WeiszNot Rated, 123 minutesIn German with English subtitlesHistorical Consultant Thomas Weber scheduled to appear live.This documentary-drama unravels two of the perpetrators of Nazi crimes. More deeply, it shows the manipulations and outright lies of Joseph Goebbels and how he used his skills to influence not only the public but also Adolf Hitler himself. It also shows some of his personal trials and, more importantly, how easily it is to manipulate news reporting to make the public react in a specific way to events and people, regardless of the truth.
