SUMMARY:Giants of the 17th Century
DESCRIPTION:A divided Europe pitted Calvinist restraint against the flamboyance of Catholic church and courts\, served by an extraordinary array of artists and art forms – landscape in Holland\, extravagant allegory for the courts\, the drama of baroque architecture\, and portraits which captured the personalities of the age. This series will concentrate on three exceptional near-contemporaries\, Rembrandt\, Rubens and Velasquez\, but also consider their context and peers\, from Frans Hals to Anthony van Dyck and Gian Lorenzo Bernini\, artists who represented the spirit and diversity of this febrile world.

SUMMARY:Truth And Beauty In Art: Images Of Women Through The Ages
DESCRIPTION:This course will show the diverse ways in which women have been portrayed in Western\, Asian and Japanese art\, from the earliest Egyptian Graeco-Roman depictions of beauty to the goddesses of myths and legends in Japan and China; from the entertainers of theatre and the heroines of wars to the educated poets and writers of the aristocracy; from stereotypes and the perceived ‘slavery of beauty’ to individual freedoms and liberation depicted in tattoos and ‘body awareness’ throughout the world and in different cultures from Japan to Maori to Africa. \nQuestions such as ‘What is the truth in beauty?’ will be addressed through a wide ranging selection of images that will inspire participants to think about how we perceive beauty\, how it is portrayed in history\, in the mass media\, and what that means in today’s multicultural societies.
