Prologue and Fulfillment―The Other Hinge MomentPart 3 of 3 Art History Lectures (MONDAY SERIES)
Hinge Moments: From the Greeks to Picasso, Two Events that Transformed Western Art | Art History Lecture Series
Presented by Linda Blair
Monday, November 15; 7:30 PM
Individual tickets: $16/21
The 17th and 18th centuries were an artistic pinball machine, all blinking lights and shrill bells as a cacophony of various art movements jostled for dominance. Where were stability and future direction to be found? Not in Paris, center of the art world, but in an ancient forest, where a small group of unconventional artists worked out radical ideas that would bring order and direction to art―and foretell its future far into the 20th century.
Linda Blair has taught art history for many years, at the La Jolla Athenaeum and UC San Diego Osher; she was a docent at The Cloisters. She holds a BA from Mills College and an MA from USD. She is an active volunteer at UC San Diego, dedicated to raising scholarship funds.
