THE FEMME FATALE IN DECORATIVE ART with Angela Hesson

Thursday 15 May 2008, 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM

In this presentation, Angela Hesson, undergraduate lecturer and PhD Candidate at the University of Melbourne, will trace the development of the femme fatale’s specific visual iconography across the diverse media of fin-de-siècle decorative arts, and question whether her significant and subversive power could survive the transition from canvas to tableware.
