Established to honor the memory of Andrew Carnduff Ritchie, Yale University Art Gallery director from 1957 to 1971, the annual Ritchie Lectures, which are jointly sponsored by the Center and the Gallery, bring distinguished members of the international visual arts community to the university. These lectures are free and open to the public, honoring Ritchie’s belief that the art museum serves as a gathering place for all members of the community.
The speakers at this event are An-My Lê ’93MFA, Professor of Photography, Bard College, Annandale-On-Hudson; and Peter van Agtmael ’03, photographer, Magnum Photos
