INSTITUTE FOR DOCTORAL STUDIES

We have replaced Summer 2020 European and North African on-site residencies with online programming. The following roster of scholars and artist-philosophers will join IDSVA students in virtual seminars and symposia.
IDSVA is pleased to announce the publication of the 2020 Spring Newsletter. In this issue you will find a series of testimonies dedicated to the memory of Dr. David C. Driskell, along with recollections of our first winter residency in Mexico City, and achievements of our students and alumni.
