Spotlight Series | Masculine Beauty in Baroque and Contemporary Contexts with Natalie Velez and Brett F. Harvey
Join MFA Docent and Ph.D. student Natalie Velez and contemporary artist Brett F. Harvey for a thought-provoking gallery talk that bridges intimidating physicality and pensive vulnerability. Within the special exhibitions In Caravaggio’s Light and Baroque Continuum, see how these notions have been continuously evolving from Caravaggio, the Caravaggisti, and the contemporary.
Harvey is captivated by the patterns of culture and civilization that human beings repeat over and over. He uses emblematic materials of our contemporary civilization to help question the perspective of our culture—referring to lessons that have been learned, forgotten, and rediscovered countless times.
