Double Take: Elliott Hundley

Our Double Take gallery talks bring together Ohio State professors from different departments to share and trade perspectives and insights about artworks on view in the galleries.

Join us to hear Stratos E. Constantinidis (Theatre) and Richard Fletcher (Greek and Latin) discuss Elliott Hundley: The Bacchae, featuring work inspired by the Euripides tragedy.

Constantinidis is an expert on classical and modern Greek theater, and Fletcher is engaged in research on how contemporary artists, like Cy Twombly and Elliott Hundley, have incorporated classical sources into their art.
