 ***The Flight: A Performance***

 Nandipha Mntambo (*left*), Johannesburg-based interdisciplinary artist, will present an original piece of performance art. Inspired by Spanish bullfights and Miguel Torga's book *Miura* (2013), the work explores concepts of empathy, violence, and spectatorship while challenging the binary between human and animal.

 This performance is the third event in the [Black History/Art History](https://blackhistoryarthistory.org/) Lecture and Performance Series, which is generously sponsored by the Provostial Fund for the Arts and Humanities, Hutchins Center for African & African American Research, Center for African Studies, Harvard Art Museums, Department of History of Art and Architecture, Department of African and African American Studies, and Program in American Studies.

*Free and open to the public.*
