If spooky season is feeling a little too far away, get your dose of blood and gore this Friday at USC and on Saturday at the Getty Center when the two institutions host events around the history of blood in the medieval period. The collaborative symposium looks at the “cultural, religious, and symbolic significance of blood.” It complements the Blood: Medieval/Modern exhibit on view at the Getty Center until May 19 and the immersive installation Illuminations by artist Jordan Eagles, which incorporates blood “donated from members of the LGBTQI+ community who are on PrEP, and individuals who are HIV+ and undetectable.”
