Dr. Reinaldo (Dito) Morales, Department of Art, recently delivered papers in two national conferences. These papers reflect his ongoing research on rock art (prehistoric paintings and engravings on rock, sometimes in caves); specifically, that of Northeast Brazil and the Greater Antilles. In October, Dr. Morales and Dr. Denise Smith (Savannah College of Art and Design-Atlanta) co-chaired the second annual session, “Rock Art II: The Prehistoric Image and Art History,” at the Southeastern College Art Conference, in Nashville, Tennessee. He also delivered the paper, “Everyone’s a Critic? Theory, Discourse and Rock Art,” in that session. In early November, Dr. Morales delivered a paper titled, “Beyond the Literal: Interpreting Northeast Brazilian Rock Art,” at the San Diego Museum of Man 32nd Annual Rock Art Symposium, in San Diego, California. His Brazil research was supported in part by a University Research Council Grant (“Oldest Art in the Americas? Stylistic Analysis of Radiocarbon-Dated Brazilian Rock Paintings”).
