Please note: this event is at Sursa Performance Hall.

Join the David Owsley Museum of Art at Sursa Hall (located in the Music Instruction Building on the southeast corner of McKinley and Riverside Avenues) at 6:00 p.m. on March 11 when award-winning artist Nora Krug will discuss her acclaimed body of work and DOMA's current exhibition Nora Krug: Belonging. 

Krug's powerful graphic memoir, Belonging: A German Reckons With History and Home, and her more recent book publication, an illustrated edition of Yale historian Timothy Snyder’s On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century, are the focus of the solo show at DOMA and organized by the Norman Rockwell Museum in Stockbridge, MA. Each book takes inspiration from the artist’s personal experiences as well as the events of history through engagement with deep topical research, museum artifacts and flea market finds, vintage photography, oral histories, and personal conversations, with the goal of trying to understand, reckon with, and depict the past in order to take something revelatory and useful away from it.

“Images have political power, and they can change the way we think. Illustrating is also an act of witnessing: images compel us to notice and investigate, and at their best, they shed light on and at the same time critically confront the subjects they engage with.”

—Nora Krug

A book signing and light refreshments in the Sursa Hall upper lobby will follow the talk and the Ball State bookstore will have books available for purchase.

Visit bsu.edu/doma for more information on the exhibition and other events. This lecture is free and open to the public with no registration required.
