MILLS COLLEGE ART LECTURE SERIES: Nancy Troy, "Fashioning Mondrian"


Wednesday, November 7
7-8 PM, Lucie Stern Hall



Nancy J. Troy is Victoria and Roger Sant Professor in Art at Stanford University. She joined the Stanford faculty in 2010, having previously taught at the University of Southern California, Northwestern University and The Johns Hopkins University. A specialist in modern art, architecture and design in Europe and America, Troy is the author of books about Dutch modernism, French decorative art, and the visual culture of haute couture. Her latest book, The Afterlife of Piet Mondrian, explores the posthumous circulation of this Dutch painter’s work in both elite and popular spheres. Former editor-in-chief of the flagship journal The Art Bulletin, Troy has received numerous prestigious fellowship awards. In addition to courses that reflect her research interests, she also teaches courses on the connections between art, business and the law, and on the ethical challenges of art conservation practices.
