GLOBAL FACULTY SYMPOSIUM AT NYU FLORENCE Emily Gee, Seeing London’s Architecture In March 2015, I was honoured to represent NYU London, of colleagues from a number of global sites, including along with Eliya Ribak, Cultural Foundations, at the Global New York. Each faculty member submitted an essay on Faculty Symposium on "The Material Archive: The Politics the wider subject and these were grouped into three of Provenance, Preservation, and Place”, kindly hosted by discussions sessions: Collect, Archive and Display. I led the NYU Florence.

The assembled faculty with a wide range of expertise and experiences made each session both fun and thought- provoking. The setting of our discussion was extraordinary and it was a real treat for us to study and enjoy the architecture, landscape and collection at Villa La Pietra. It was also strange to discover that my great grandparents' family name from Florence – Capponi – were the family that owned the house for 300 years! The tiny room of recently restored, ornithologically-correct frescoes of birds dating from the 1740s was a particular delight. We chatted with Brilliantly organized and chaired by archaeologist and NYU London conservation students who were engaged in Gallatin Assistant Professor Hallie Franks and Patrick hands-on work to protect the dresses of the glamorous McCreery, it was a stimulating and productive gathering Hortense Mitchell Acton, who owned the villa in the early of interesting ideas and people.

(continued from page 1) It was a great symposium that wove together a number of ideas and subjects in an imaginative way. I also found it valuable for gaining a better understanding of NYU and its global sites that will certainly enrich my relationship with NYU London students. At the end, we managed some quick visits to take in the remarkable architectural history of Florence, the cathedral of course, and also Brunelleschi’s Ospedale degli Innocenti (1419-27). The connection of this to the eighteenth century Foundling Museum in Bloomsbury, a minute’s walk from NYU London, was a poignant reminder of the international resonance of social history and museums, which empha- sised the importance of just this sort of symposium.

  • A Distinguished Private University
    A DISTINGUISHED PRIVATE UNIVERSITY The founding of New York University in 1831 by a group of eminent private citizens was a historic event in American education. In the early 19th century, a major emphasis in higher education was on the study of Greek and Latin, with little attention to modern or contemporary subjects. The founders of New York University intended to enlarge the scope of higher education to meet the needs of persons aspiring to careers in business, industry, science, and the arts, as well as law, medicine, and the ministry. The opening of the University of London in 1828 convinced New Yorkers that their city, too, should have a university. The first president of New York University's governing council, Albert Gallatin, and his co-founders said that the new university was to be a "national university" that would provide a "rational and practical education for all." The result of the founders' foresight is today an institution of higher education at the forefront of America's urban research universities. Of the more than 3,000 colleges and universities in America, New York University is one of the 58 private institutions that are members of the distinguished Association of American Universities. Among its stellar – and accessible – faculty are recipients of the Nobel, Abel, and Pulitzer Prizes; the MacArthur, Guggenheim, and Fulbright Fellowships; and Academy and Emmy Awards. The University includes 14 schools, colleges, and divisions at six major centers in Manhattan. In addition, the University operates branch campus programs in Westchester County at Manhattanville College and in Rockland County at Dominican College.
