In 1936, the Bauhaus artist László Moholy-Nagy was hired to create a montage sequence for Things to Come, a sci-fi film scripted by famed author H.G. Wells. Telling the story of a world wrecked by global war, poison gas, and contagious epidemics before its eventual reconstruction, the film stands as both a reflection on the First World War and an uncanny prefiguration of the Second.
The Research in Art and Visual Evidence (RAVE) Workshop provides a forum for University of Chicago graduate students––and the occasional faculty or outside speaker––to present their works-in-progress whose research centers on art or any type of visual and material culture. RAVE provides visually-minded scholars from across the university with the opportunity to receive feedback from art historians, while also ensuring that art historians think broadly and experimentally about their projects.
