Art History Talk - Frida Kahlo

Join us this September to hear acclaimed art history lecturer, Stella Grace Lyons’s talk on Frida Kahlo.

 

Feminist icon, folk artist, or surrealist?

This art history talk tries to separate the woman from the myth, the painting from the hype.

Art History Day School Constable, Palmer and Turner

Art History Day School: Constable, Palmer & Turner

Friday 4 October 2024, 10am - 4pm

Ticket: £59.95 per person + booking fee – ticket price includes catering

 

Celebrating landscape artists Constable, Palmer and Turner, come along this October to learn more about these inspiring artists.

 

John Constable transformed the way we see the English landscape. While most landscape painters of his day travelled extensively to find ‘picturesque’ or ‘sublime’ scenery, Constable never left England. He instead embarked on a journey to create unique, deeply personal images of the countryside round his boyhood home of East Bergholt.

 

For many, Constable conjures up images of chocolate boxes and biscuit tins. This talk will demolish this association and give Constable the respect he deserves – as a true revolutionary!

 

Joins us for this exciting and enlightening Art History Day School with renowned art historian Stella Grace Lyons.
