Sequitur Volume 2, Issue 1 - Boston University History of Art & Architecutre Graduate Student Online Journal

We are thrilled to announce the official publication of Volume 2, Issue 1 of the Boston University History of Art & Architecture graduate student online journal, Sequitur, available at www.bu.edu/sequitur. This installment of Sequitur is our first themed issue and its content engages with the concept of interface. Our contributors analyze a wide range of topics from the 1876 centennial exhibition, to contemporary visitor-engagement practices in museums. In their explorations of interface they examine a variety of ways in which art, architecture and material culture can engage with translation, exchange, communication and dialogue. This issue includes a featured essay, three exhibition reviews, two research spotlights and introduces the visual essay; a new form of content for Sequitur that provides a platform to showcase artistic practices and projects.
