The MA Asian Art Histories Annual Lecture is a platform that brings together academics, scholars and students of art history to participate in the on-going discourse of the emergent field of modern and contemporary Asian art histories. The polemical issues, critical questions and new knowledge generated from the lecture and discussion will contribute significantly to the furtherance of the discourse of the field. Distinguished speakers of the Annual Lecture are international figures who will present original content drawn from their most recent research in the field.
