5-Week Art History Lecture Series: Women in Art with Sue Altman

(5) Wednesdays, March 12 - April 9, from 2:00 – 3:00 pm.

Member $65 / Non-Member $90

Long overlooked and underappreciated, women have been a force in art history for centuries. From Renaissance portrait painters to the still life painters of the Dutch Golden Age to accomplished Impressionists and the many important 20th-century women in Surrealism, Abstract Expressionism, and Feminist Art, this lecture series explores both obscure and well-known artists.

This course is divided into five sessions: 16th to 18th centuries, 19th century, 20th century Painters, 20th Sculptors, 20th Performance and Installation Artists/Contemporary Artists. Each approximately 60-minute talk will feature and discuss names like Artemisia Gentileschi, Rosa Bonheur, Mary Cassatt, Helen Frankenthaler, and Georgia O’Keefe, concluding with a brief Q/A session.

We have scholarships!
