Prologue and Fulfillment―The Other Hinge Moment


Presented by Linda Blair

Online On Demand:

Saturday, November 20, 10 AM–Monday, November 22, 2021, 10 PM


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.
