2007/08 Twilight Scholar
Visiting Twilight Scholar and Brazilian Fine Artist Duda Penteado brings an interesting fusion of culture, art, spirituality, and social justice to Middlebury’s campus through a series of class visits, lectures, student gatherings, and overall presence on campus. Penteado’s latest work called Beauty for Ashes Project is an investigation of the consequences of September 11, 2001 in the face of the increasing globalization developing since the 1980s, and his re-consideration of some of the key elements of this topic six years later. The Beauty for Ashes Project—a touring exhibition that engages art students and their ideas—currently on exhibit at the Jersey City Museum until February 24, 2008, and will be recreated in Brazil, Spain, and China in the coming years. Duda Penteado’s week-long residency is sponsored by the Office for Institutional Diversity, Scott Center for Spiritual and Religious Life, PALANA Academic Interest House, L.I.F.T., and Intervarsity Christian Fellowship.
