IE Arts & Humanities Week 2024

Part two of the Views on Heritage event series! We will go on a trip to Sepúlveda and Duratón, to visit the variety of patrimony that is hidden within them: romanic churches, roman sites, and a Visigothic necropoli that will let us examine how rural heritage is percieved, how it has evolved through history, and the role it plays nowadays. We will be accompanied by a faculty member that will serve as a guide.

Art is not only in museums. In the streets of Madrid you can find more art than you imagine. In this street art route we will approach the city as an open-air museum and explore the Embajadores area: full of art, history and culture. Together we will look at the city with different eyes.

Chinese calligraphy is a form of aesthetically pleasing writing (calligraphy), or, the artistic expression of human language in a tangible form.
Chinese calligraphy and ink and wash painting are closely related: they are accomplished using similar tools and techniques, and have a long history of shared artistry. Distinguishing features of Chinese painting and calligraphy include an emphasis on motion charged with dynamic life.

Join us on a very special session with Professor José Félix Valdivieso around his book Besos de otros mundos. Enjoy a performance on the spot.

WE ARE BACK!

This year, the theatre club will be presenting "The Amateur Killer" a brand-new play written by Robert Scott. The story follows an amateur theatre production with a director who is letting his personal history with an actor affect their relationship as he directs the production of “Adieu” in the local Amateur Dramatic Society, but it’s his knowledge of the actors’ affair with a fellow cast member that will lead to murder.

Wanna find out more? Come solve the murder alongside our club ;)

We will be serving light refreshments and snacks before and after the performance.

WHERE: IE Tower, Auditorium @ -4
WHEN: April 10th, 7:15pm

The estimated run time of the play will be of 1 hour.

This play is co-hosted with the School of Humanities during Arts and Humanities week! Check out their IEConnects page for other events like this one!
