UC Berkeley Professor T.J. Clark Discusses "Picasso and Truth" on
Sundays at the National Gallery of Art.
Timothy James Clark, the George C. and Helen N. Pardee Chair and
professor of modern art at the University of California, Berkeley, will
deliver the 58th A.W. Mellon Lectures in Fine Arts at the National
Gallery of Art at 2 p.m. each Sunday through May 3 (except April 12).
The A. W. Mellon Lectures in the Fine Arts were established by the
National Gallery of Art's Board of Trustees "to bring to the people of
the United States the results of the best contemporary thought and
scholarship bearing upon the subject of the Fine Arts." Prof. Clark's
research takes a new direction from traditional study of style and
iconography. He regards modern paintings as striving to articulate the
social and political conditions of modern life.
For more information on the series "Picasso and Truth," please see the
National Gallery of Art website.
For more info, read Prof. Clark's conversation with the
Washington Post and the ArtsJournal weblog regarding the 2009 National
Gallery of Art Mellon Lectures. ---------------------- 1/16-19/09 - MLK JR. DAY WEEKEND OF SERVICE
