SUMMARY:Lecture: El Greco: Ambition and Defiance
DESCRIPTION:Deepen your engagement with “The Brilliance of the Spanish World” in a lecture by Rebecca J. Long\, the Art Institute of Chicago’s Patrick G. and Shirley W. Ryan Curator of Painting and Sculpture of Europe. Since El Greco’s death\, writers\, critics\, and other observers have struggled with how and where to situate him. Was he a Byzantine icon painter transformed by the artistic revolution of the Italian Renaissance? A social climber desperately seeking noble patronage? Was he Greek\, Italian\, or Spanish? This lecture looks to his works themselves for answers\, providing new insights into El Greco’s legacy and including artworks featured in the exhibition “The Brilliance of the Spanish World.”
