| Details: | The Middle Ages (ca. 500–1500 CE) is often thought of as a period of heightened religious devotion, especially in the Catholic regions of Western Europe. Looking to the Joan of Arc Chapel, at the heart of the Marquette University campus, and pulling from the collections of the Haggerty Museum of Art and the University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee, Material Muses: Medieval Devotional Culture and its Afterlives considers how artists since the end of the Middle Ages have looked back to the art from this period as inspiration for creating “authentic” devotional objects of their own time. The exhibition also explores the allure of medieval material as it converses with and energizes post-medieval religious narratives.
