A Talk with Andrew Zawacki
22.06.2023 16:15 – 17:45
Location: Rachel Carson Center, fourth floor, conference room
The RCC would like to invite you to join us for Andrew Zawacki's talk “ILL-LIGHT: The Georgia Landscape in Lyric and Lens.”
American Visiting Professor Andrew Zawacki will read poems and screen photographs from a trio of recent projects. He will begin by showing documentary images from “The Land Beneath Our Feet: Mapping Cherokee Homesteads in the Early Nineteenth Century,” a work-in-progress undertaken in collaboration with University of Georgia historian Claudio Saunt. The majority of the session will feature a reading from Zawacki's forthcoming poetry book, These Late Eclipses, in tandem with photographs from an ongoing work focused on Georgia landscapes.
This event is organized by Noemi Quagliati (LMU München/Amerika-Institut) as part of the UGA-LMU Faculty Research Exchange.
