Photography lecture is March 9

Art and design professor Mary Stieglitz, who is the 2003-04 Distinguished Scholar in the Center for Excellence in the Arts and Humanities, will present results of her research and creative activity at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, March 9, in the Memorial Union Sun Room.

Her presentation will focus on the informative power of photography, and the potential of photographic images to help us see, sense, know and respond to our world. Stieglitz works in both traditional and digital (wide-format) photography and studies imaging history. Her images focus on the patterns of nature.

"As a photographer, I am fascinated by the visible patterns of our natural world," Stieglitz said. "Their relationship to the larger myths and metaphors in our collective language of vision reveals both parallel and paradox."

The Center for Excellence in the Arts and Humanities will host a free buffet reception for Stieglitz from 6 to 7 p.m. in the Campanile Room.
