The word “Renaissance” conjures many meanings in our contemporary minds. The term has been used to describe the rebirth of cities and a cultural movement, but why do we make those associations? Encounter some of the artists who helped transform thinking and artistic practice in 15th and 16th-century Europe, including Albrecht Dürer and Leonardo da Vinci who both invented new ways of depicting the human form. Begin to make connections to the later styles of Baroque and Neoclassical which took inspiration from the groundbreaking work of the Renaissance.
It isn’t too late to register for this unit or the remaining weeks of the Crash Course series! All lectures take place in the Carnegie Museum of Art Theater and will be available online to participants as digital recordings two weeks following the class.
