    The Lipscomb University Presidential Lectures on Art and Art History will present Harvard University Professor Benjamin Buchloh at 7 p.m., in the Ezell Center, room 147, speaking on "The Painting of Repression and Disavowal: Gerhard Richter in 1965." A reception will follow the lecture.

    Buchloh is the Andrew W. Mellon Professor of Modern Art at Harvard University, author of numerous books and essays on art history and a recognized, vital contributor to the study of modern and postmodern art. He has been recognized internationally as one of today's most important contributors to the study of post-1945 art.

    Buchloh was named Franklin D. and Florence Rosenblatt Professor of Modern Art in Harvard University's Faculty of Arts and Sciences in 2005. Prior to that, he served as Barnard College's and Columbia University's Virginia B. Wright Professor of Twentieth-Century and Contemporary Art.

    "With remarkable independence and rigor, he has done more than any of his contemporaries to broaden the canonical history of modern art beyond an American point of view. Additionally, his gifts as a teacher are without peer; many of the most impressive young art historians now studying postwar art are his former students." (Reprinted from the Harvard Gazette.)
