Mr. Linck, Annapolis tutor, will present his lecture on Friday, April 21 "On Form".

The lecture will consist of three gestures at form: once toward a painting; once through a piece of music; and once from within a philosophical argument.

The painting will be Amy Sherald’s They Call Me Redbone but I’d Rather be Strawberry Shortcake (on view at the National Gallery of Art). The musical work will be “Porgi, amor” from Mozart’s Marriage of Figaro. The philosophical argument will be taken from Sebastian Rödl’s Categories of the Temporal.

It will be suggested at the end of the lecture that the world is given to us through form and that this is connected to those moments when we find ourselves paying attention to things.

This lecture is free and open to the public. It will be held in the Auditorium in Mellon Hall.
