SUMMARY:The Glittering Prizes
DESCRIPTION:A look at some great strivers of the late 18th and l9th centuries and their relationship with fame. Mary Robinson enjoys it; Fanny Mendelssohn hankers after it; Benjamin Robert Haydon perishes for lack of it; Edwin Landseer basks in it and overdoes it; Florence Nightingale utterly rejects it.

SUMMARY:Who Paid for The Renaissance?
DESCRIPTION:Money may make the world go round\, but it is also crucial to the development of the arts. The Renaissance across Europe was financed by Church\, commerce and conquest\, and fuelled not only by connoisseurship but by the need for calculated propaganda. This course examines the diversity of a formative age and asks how and why it took the forms it did.

SUMMARY:Unity And Diversity: Art Metropolises of Europe
DESCRIPTION:Europe is at a turning point in its history. Questions about its unity and diversity are more relevant today than ever. This series of talks will address the concept of Europe through a number of its most characteristic and idiosyncratic cities. It will discuss the evolution of their ground plans as well as the stories of their inhabitants and visitors\, and it will explore their architectural and artistic heritages.

SUMMARY:Let There Be Light!
DESCRIPTION:Light illuminates\, it moulds\, it defines our mood – and\, in art\, its effects are determined by the artist’s tools. From gold leaf to photography\, oil paint to the Louvre pyramids\, each week we range across centuries and styles to understand both how light can be captured and the changing messages it carries\, whether of divine symbolism\, naturalism in landscape or intense emotion.

SUMMARY:Music in Art & Art in Music
DESCRIPTION:This series of study days will examine the relationship between music and painting during three contrasting eras: Dutch Baroque 1600-1700\, English Classicism 1750-1810\, and Romanticism\, Impressionism and Expressionism 1800-1920.  The first day discusses symbolism in the musical paintings of the Dutch masters who painted the mercantile classes making music.  Day 2 examines the wide range of composers and musicians featured in the paintings of Thomas Gainsborough and Johan Zoffany. The last day focuses on the ability of music to inspire art and art to inspire music.  This covers a period of 100 years from the start of the 19th century and covers the works of Chopin\, James Whistler\, Arnold Böcklin\, Arnold Schoenberg and Rachmaninov.

SUMMARY:Landscapes in Art
DESCRIPTION:From JMW Turner and John Constable\, to Chinese Masterpieces\, Japanese Prints\,  Hokusai’s Mount Fuji\, and Cézanne’s Mont Saint Victoire\,  artists have strived to capture landscape in all its beauty and nature for centuries.  Landscape vistas can be recreated in private gardens and parkland estates\, as with Chinese gardens of the 8thC\, Capability Brown in the 18thC\, and even rooftop gardens of the 20thC. There are many ways of bringing landscapes into one’s personal environment\, from paintings and prints\, to textiles\, wallpapers\, furnishings and potted plants\, we can create an “outdoors” indoors\, and feel that we have a connection to nature in some form.  With the growing awareness of the need for mental health support in all areas of society\, it is becoming a recognised fact that gardens\, plants\, landscapes and natural environments are a necessary aid to promote our mental and physical health.  We will explore the meaning of Landscape in Art\, and how we\, the viewer\, respond to certain combinations of natural elements\, and how we use those elements in our daily lives to promote harmony and tranquility in our homes and environments.

SUMMARY:Raphael - Life\, Legacy\, And Legend (1483 – 1520) From Urbino to Rome
DESCRIPTION:This course will explore an artist who is still seen as the epitome of the ideals that aligned themselves with the term Renaissance. We will chart the rise of Raphael beginning before his birth with the work of his father Giovanni Santi to the introduction of Raphael into the Santi studio. We will discuss his early works and influence looking at contemporaries such as Perugino and the part they may have played in those formative years. Raphael’s obsession with drawing and the integral part it played in his invention\, design and printed works will also be explored but the tumultuous period of the Renaissance and Raphael’s part cannot be told without refence to Michelangelo and Leonardo and the competition that ensued between these great Renaissance masters. We will look at the triumph of the Vatican frescoes\, the patronage of the popes\, the acrimonious battle between Raphael and Michelangelo\, Raphael’s final years and the legacy of his life and works.

SUMMARY:The Spanish avant-garde: Madrid\, Barcelona\, Paris
DESCRIPTION:Late nineteenth-century Spain was in a state of flux\, characterised by competing aesthetic ideas between tradition and the modern\, religion and the secular\, passionately-felt regional and national identities. Nowhere was this more strongly articulated than through Catalan modernisme (modernism)\, a cultural movement centred on Barcelona.  We will examine these various seminal influences focussing on the early artistic endeavours of four key figures – artists Pablo Picasso\, Juan Miró\, Salvador Dalí\, and the architect Antonio Gaudí – and their collaborations with other significant cultural figures\, in our search for ‘duende’\, an elusive term signifying the essence and soul of Spain.

SUMMARY:Iconic Interiors
DESCRIPTION:This course will explore the design and decoration of some of the most influential and fascinating domestic interiors in Western culture\, highlighting both mainstream movements as well as interesting idiosyncratic styles of note. We will focus on the architecture as well as the fine and decorative arts\, with painting\, furniture\, ceramics\, glass and other works of art all playing a part in this fascinating story. Stylistic innovations\, visual trends and iconic objects will be considered within the socio-economic and cultural context of the time in which these iconic interiors were conceived and created.

SUMMARY:London’s Villages and the Growth of the City
DESCRIPTION:London is a collection of villages – to a degree greater than any other world city. Medieval villages expanded\, particularly in the Georgian and Victorian periods. And\, as the fields between those villages were built on\, the capital coalesced into one huge conurbation. But\, still\, within those villages\, you can see their distinctive old heart\, wrapped around the village church\, with rings of development around them.  It is in learning about the villages that you work out how different parts of London grew up at different times and you get a bird’s eye view of the mushrooming of the city. There will be a walk around each village\, explaining its origin and how it was subsumed into the greater London whole.

SUMMARY:Cameos
DESCRIPTION:Certain subjects exert a sustained fascination for the artist\, others rise from nothing in response to a particular mood\, a particular time – landscape\, still-life\, war…… Each week this course will examine a different theme and the changing way it has been perceived and presented through the ages\, moving in to focus on a specific work/case study.

SUMMARY:Art’s Hall of Mirrors: How Poems Succeed in Making Paintings and Sculptures Speak in English
DESCRIPTION:The ability that paintings\, like music\, have to leave you speechless is surely the whole point: art needs no words to fire the mind\, quicken the body and touch the heart. And then we say of a painting that it really speaks to us. No wonder poets want to speak back\, make art’s hidden voice visible in words\, translate a picture so that we can hear it in our human language. Art’s Hall of Mirrors lines up images of great and even famous art to face the best ekphrastic poems as poets word them.

SUMMARY:Art and Music
DESCRIPTION:Music is not only for the ears. Throughout the history of art\, musicians have been represented at play. The concept of musical harmony has also pervaded architecture since its origins. And music also influenced the development of colour theory\, proportion and abstraction in art – not to mention the exquisite designs of musical instruments. This series will examine the evolving relationship between music and visual culture.

SUMMARY:Designs for Living
DESCRIPTION:The ideal city or home has long been a preoccupation of thinkers\, rulers\, and architects. These lectures\, mostly focused on western examples\, range widely over time\, and are loosely themed to discuss particular visions of models for dwelling\, working and display. We will discuss both those which were built (or at least attempted) and schemes which never got further than the drawing board. In many of these instances Rome features heavily as it has in the architectural imagination of Europe since antiquity.

SUMMARY:The Spider’s Web
DESCRIPTION:“Fiction is like a spider’s web\, attached ever so slightly perhaps\, but still attached to life at all four corners” Virginia Woolf \nAll the writers in this short series draw inspiration and support from those closest to them. Where would Jane Austen have been without the support of her sister Cassandra\, or Virginia Woolf without the stimulus of Vanessa Bell? Burney\, Austen and Woolf are fortunate in their sisters. With no close siblings\, for a good twenty years Johnson and Thrale find reliable inspiration and entertainment in each other. For each of these writers it is true that\, in the famous words of John Donne\, no man is an island.

SUMMARY:The English Renaissance: England under the Tudors
DESCRIPTION:In just 3 generations\, the upstart Tudor clan not only produced some of the more dramatic personalities and legends of the monarchy but took the country from the Middle Ages into the great artistic “rebirth” of the Continent\, from stained glass and manuscripts for Henry VII to Renaissance portraits for his son and grandchildren\, from militaristic fortresses to sumptuous architectural stage sets for the choreography of display. In an age of intense religious conflict\, church commissions were followed by the destruction of monasteries and their heritage and as successive rulers imposed their allegiances on the people\, the arts trumpeted their chosen Faiths. For the monarchy\, paintings by Holbein\, Horenbout and Hilliard and palaces to overawe European rivals transmitted the Tudor message and became prestige models which transformed the face of England.

SUMMARY:Great Italian Dynastic Art Collectors: Their Palaces\, Villas And Chapels
DESCRIPTION:This series of illustrated lectures surveys the collecting cultures of Renaissance and Post-Renaissance Italy by focusing on the artistic production and consumption of five powerful Italian dynasties and their artists.  Some of the original more portable works have been dispersed to the art market over the centuries and we will study the subsequent provenance of some of this work.  Fortunately\, the more permanent and site-specific interior decoration has often survived allowing us a glimpse of the former magnificence of the collections and their architectural frames.

SUMMARY:Cities Of Light\, Cities Of Darkness: Vienna And Paris Around 1900
DESCRIPTION:Vienna and Paris are rarely brought into ‘conversation’ with each other. Yet the cross-currents between these two great cities around 1900 powered exciting\, sometimes disturbing new visions in European art and thought which resonated throughout the twentieth century. We will examine the ways artists and other cultural figures – writers\, musicians\, and architects – shaped the birth of the modern spirit and the fabric of urban life\, in these intensely productive decades which lead inexorably to the Great War.
