Unveiling Age

Explore how artists have depicted the aging body — and what those images reveal about culture, identity, and perceptions of growing older.
About this Event

What can art reveal about the way we see aging—and the way we see ourselves?

Join Wise & Well for an art-centered conversation examining how the body has been depicted from the Renaissance to the present day.

Together, participants will consider how artists portray the aging body across different emotional states, lived experiences, and communal connections, and how creative expression can challenge or reinforce cultural perceptions of growing older.

During this program, participants will:

• Examine depictions of the aging body across art history
• Consider how art reflects personal and societal attitudes about age
• Explore the ways creative expression can challenge cultural perceptions of growing older
