Professor Nora Annesley Taylor Featured on WBEZ for The Shadows of War Film Series

WBEZ spoke with Alsdorf Professor in South Asian Art History Nora Annesley Taylor, professor of Art History at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC), as part of a conversation about The Shadows of War lecture series at the Gene Siskel Film Center. The series brings together SAIC students and the public to explore films that reflect on the human cost of war, moving beyond traditional Hollywood portrayals. Taylor, alongside Rebecca Fons, director of programming at the Siskel, discussed how the series confronts the psychological impacts of war and deepens understanding of conflict’s lasting effects.
