Art history like you’ve never seen it—fun, juicy, full of drama, scandals, and naked people! Think Netflix, but interactive and with way better stories.
FEASTING THE EYE FROM THE HUMBLEST GENRE TO THE BOAST OF WEALTH
How still-life, the least considered genre, became the mirror of ostentation and the rise of capitalism?
How can a half-peeled lemon be so philosophical?
How can one asparagus be a thank you gift?
Is foodstagramming the new Memento Mori?
How did the Portuguese Great Discoveries Era influence the painting in Europe?
How can food and flowers contain so many religious, political, and social symbols?
This talk explains the scale of genres and offers an overview of the evolution of still-life painting within Western art history, from Ancient Egypt to Contemporary Art.
Let’s unveil together, through a partial and biased selection of works the secrets behind apparently innocent paintings of flowers and fruits.
The presentation will be run with a dynamic approach, giving space to questions, interaction, and creativity.
