Zsofi Markus BHA ’26 will present a paper (developed in Professor Cash Ragona’s Art History Seminar: Painting in the Expanded Field) titled “Diagrams and Diagrammatic Artworks: Deciphering the World Through the Exploration of Visual Relationships” at the SUNY New Paltz Undergraduate Art History Symposium. Markus’ talk takes place on April 14 at 2:00 PM.
The paper explores the utilization of diagrams in the work of Amy Sillman, Joe Scanlan and Carolee Schneemann. In this presentation, Markus will show how these artists have subverted the conventional visual language of diagrams, revealing the diagram’s potential as a form of abstraction within itself, as well as a critique of the arbitrary nature of such simplified charts generated by scientific communities.
