Join us for a talk by Dr. Dustin Gish on the magnificent Torlonia Marbles,part of the largest private collection of ancient statues in the world. Collected by the Torlonia family over three centuries and comprising over six hundred works of sculpture, this collection is rarely seen in person. The Torlonia Collection in Rome, on display in the 19th century, has been closed to the public for almost a century—from the onset of World War II until 2020. This year, however, the marbles make their way to the United States for the first time, and they’re coming to only two locations: The Art Institute of Chicago and the Kimbell Art Museum of Fort Worth. About the Presenter Dr. DustinGish is a Professor of Humanities and Political Philosophy in the Honors College at the University of Houston, where he has taught courses in political theory, philosophy, and literature since 2014. He received his interdisciplinary Ph.D. from the Institute of Philosophic Studies at the University of Dallas, and his M.A. in Liberal Education from St. John’s College (SF). For a decade, Dr. Gish lived in Rome, Italy, and taught courses there at two American universities focused on ancient Roman civilization as well as on the art, history, and philosophy of the Italian Renaissance. He has published extensively on the plays of Shakespeare, Thomas Jefferson and the American Founding, Xenophon's Socrates, and the visual rhetoric of Italian civic republicanism.
