CANCELLED: Construct and Control: Taming the Beast

Exhibition Lecture

Jill Weber

Please Note: This event has been CANCELLED. We apologize for any inconvenience. The Ishtar Gate and Processional Way are not just highly-decorated forms of functional control, limiting the movement of people, animals, and goods into- and out of- Babylon. Rather, they are narratives that tell a story through their construction and imagery; that story is one of control.
