Stanford Presidential Lecture
The Stanford Presidential and Endowed Lecture Series in the Humanities and Arts brings the most distinguished scholars, artists, and critics of our time to the Stanford University campus for lectures, seminars, panel discussions, and a variety of related interactions with faculty, students and the community at large.
Funded by the President's Office and endowments, and administered under the auspices of the Stanford Humanities Center, these programs explore new roles and relations for the Humanities and Arts in the academic community in the 21st century.
Presidential Lectures
These lectures were initiated in 1998 as part of a global effort by the Stanford President's Office to address the role that the Humanities and Arts will play in the future of Stanford University and in the academy at large. The Presidential Lectures are typically presented once each quarter during the academic year.

Milica Tomic, an International Visitor in 2010-11, is a Serbian artist working at the intersection of performance art forms, using video, film, photography, light, and sound installation. Her work centers on political violence, nationality and identity with an emphasis on the tensions between intimate experience and media-constructed images. During her residency, she will present a selected number of her works in which she used art in order to re-actualize past traumatic events.
