Lawrence Weschler: Everything That Rises
From a cuneiform tablet to a Chicago prison, from the depths of the cosmos to the text on our T-shirts, art historian and journalist Lawrence Weschler finds strange connections wherever he looks. The farther one travels (through geography, through art, through science, through time), the more everything seems to converge — at least, it does through Weschler’s giddy, brilliant eyes. Weschler combines his keen insights into art, his years of experience as a chronicler of the fall of Communism, and his triumphs and failures as the father of a teenage girl into this freewheeling lecture based on his award-winning book Everything That Rises: A Book of Convergences.
This Kittredge|Wilson Lecture is presented in partnership with George Mason University and Shore Lit and generously supported by Paul Wilson.
