DESCRIPTION:Join lead curator Dr. Lina Insana\, Professor in the Department
  of French and Italian\, for a gallery talk on the new exhibit\, Read the 
 Room! Uncovering the Italian Room's Transnational Traces.  \n\nThis exhibi
 t\, co-curated by students in the Kenneth P. Dietrich School of Arts & Sci
 ences\, showcases University Archives from the University of Pittsburgh Li
 brary System that document the transnational networks and economic class d
 ynamics at play during the Room's development in the 1930s and 1940s. How 
 did decisions made in Rome and Florence determine the Italian Room’s dec
 orative style and use of materials? To what extent was the Italian immigra
 nt and ethnic community in Pittsburgh involved in these decisions? And at 
 what point did skilled manual labor intersect with philanthropic support a
 nd elite decision-makers to bring the Italian Room to completion? Attend t
 his talk and visit the exhibit for answers to these questions and more. \n

 ember 2026. For more details\, visit  https://www.nationalityrooms.pitt.ed
