SOLD OUT – Seeing Nature, Knowing The World: Landscape in Europe & America, 1600–Now

Free overflow seating will be available in Wells Fargo Room. Open seating, not ticketed.

Why paint a landscape? This talk will consider how some European and American artists approached the representation of nature as a unique way of seeing and understanding the world. Focusing on works from the Paul G. Allen Family Collection, Rachael DeLue will discuss how translating nature into pictorial form provided both artists and their audiences with a way of deriving profound meaning from nature’s infinitely varied phenomena and forms.
