The Nude From Titian To Mickalene Thomas: Thursday Evening Salon Series
The Nude From Titian To Mickalene Thomas: Structures & Strategies
Presented by Virginia Fabbri Butera, Ph.D., Professor of Art History and Director of the Therese A. Maloney Art Gallery, College of Saint Elizabeth
This Valentine's Day celebration will examine how radically the nude has changed from the 16th century to the present. We will deconstruct works by artists such as Titian, Rubens, Ingres, Manet, Gauguin, Picasso, Matisse, Noguchi, Pearlstein, Thomas, Cox, Huan, Gober and Luna to understand how "the nude" can become the site of aesthetic, anthropological, cultural, mythological, sexual and sociological debate.
