About the Event

Director of San Diego State University’s longest-running Interdisciplinary and Cultural Studies graduate program, MALAS (the Master of Arts in Liberal Arts and Sciences program), Dr. William Nericcio is Professor of English and Comparative Literature at SDSU. Dr. Nericcio will lead the audience through an engaging exploration spanning the writing of Carlos Fuentes and Jean-Paul Sartre and including works presently on view at The San Diego Museum of Art, considering what it means to be “sin poder mirar,” or to exist without the power to see.

Following the lecture, guests are invited to enjoy a guided tour led by our docent team.
