We're starting this season of Art + Lit (and 2017) with the biggest beginning of them all! Timothy Standring, curator of painting and sculpture at the Denver Art Museum, will discuss Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel, and Mark George, professor of Bible and ancient systems of thought at Iliff School of Theology, will talk about the Book of Genesis. Each speaker will present for 30 minutes, followed by an audience Q&A.
Tickets are $10, and all are welcome, including those who have not yet read the book!
Each session of Art + Lit pairs a book with a piece of art. Two guest speakers—a writer and an artist—discuss the importance of each work as well as the differences and connections between the two. The audience is encouraged to read the book and review the visual art piece prior to each program and to engage in the discussion during the Q & A session.
