SEMINARS

The conflict between parents and children is pervasive in western cultures. It is often the best example of the “clash

of cultures” that we generally think of taking place on a larger canvas, in other ways. The tension revolves around the old and the new, the conservative and the radical, the steady and the restless, the tried and the innovative. We will explore this eternal dynamic through discussions of ancient and contemporary readings that will range from Sophocles’ Antigone to Mary Karr’s The Liars’ Club.

Parents and Children: Intergenerational Conflict from Antigone to Mary Karr Tamar March, Ph.D.Monday – Wednesday, March 9 – 11, 20159:30 am – 12:30 pmSeats: $195 ($215 Non-Members)

World War I marks a great chasm separating the world of the Belle Époque and that of the twentieth-century’s brave new world. No other event had such a decisive and catastrophic impact on

modern history. Four great empires collapsed. A whole world was convulsed and forever changed. And ominously, unresolved resentments and hatreds created an embittered atmosphere and an even more destructive war two decades later. In this seminar, students will consider the complex nature of the Great War as reflected not only in great events and the lives of famous men, but also in the lives of simple soldiers and bereaved families. The presentation will be richly illustrated through photographs and film clips from the period. In the year of this terrible war’s centennial, we will pay tribute to the lost generation that lies forever in the poppy fields of Flanders and in cemeteries across the globe.

The Great WarJudy M. PittengerFriday, January 30, 20159 am – 3 pm (includes lunch)Seats: $100 ($120 Non-Members)(Luncheon provided by The Museum Café)

Seminar programs offer in-depth examinations of topics, fostering interactive discussion and opportunities for personal growth.

“Reading,” says American author Joyce Carol Oates, “is the sole means by which we slip, involuntarily, often helplessly, into another’s skin, another’s voice, another’s soul.” Great works of literature

are x-rays into the myths and metaphors within whose imaginative boundaries a people conversationally dream up and talk out who they were, are and can be. Join our presenter Michael Verde, founder of Reading for Life, as he plunges into the mythological and metaphorical deep structures of great works of American literature. Beginning with Mark Twain’s The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn—the book from which Ernest Hemingway claimed all American literature comes—and including Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird, arguably the most popular novel ever written in English, and F. Scott Fitzgerald’s gem of imaginative genius The Great Gatsby, Verde will lead participating readers through these great American novels while facilitating a collective exploration of the visions and spiritual energies that make them enduringly valuable to us.

Alfred Stieglitz and Georgia O’Keeffe. Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo. August Rodin and Camille Claudel. Edward Hopper and Jo Nivison. Jackson Pollock and Lee Krasner. While artists speak

the same language and understand what it takes to be creative, tensions can develop as one partner’s success overshadows the other. While some artists suffered from bruised egos and “out of bounds” behavior that made life close to impossible, other artists gave each other enduring support. However, everyone benefited from intermingling ideas. Delve into the lives, careers and the nature of creative partnerships through these intriguing couples.

Mary Bauermeister is an important post-war German artist whose work is well known throughout Europe, but less so in the US where she lived and worked during the 1960s. In her native Cologne, she hosted performances by avant-garde artists Nam June Paik, John Cage, and other Fluxus artists, before returning to New York, where she developed her signature lens boxes and continued to work in

a variety of media, including stone reliefs, drawings, prints, and collaborative works with her partner Karlheinz Stockhausen, the avatar of electronic music.

James McNeill Whistler has been the topic of myriad biographies that claim to reveal the layers of his “thorny” personality. But the artist defies clear understanding, due in part to the well-crafted persona that he fashioned for himself. From suing the preeminent art critic John Ruskin for libel, to retaliating against critics, these actions and others were part of a calculated strategy to propel his work into the spotlight both during and after his life. Whistler may have manipulated his own public image, but the excellence of his work is truly his enduring legacy.

The Lawn of the University of Virginia is one of the great architectural masterpieces in America. It embodies not only Thomas Jefferson’s belief in the power of knowledge, but also the symbolic forms in which it could be manifested in a university setting. Jefferson’s designs employed the classical orders to embody a hierarchy of knowledge on the Lawn, from colonnades to the pavilions, and, of course, the central Rotunda. In doing so, he carefully indulged in a degree of “creative misinterpretation” about his sources.

March 18, 2015 – 2 pmHow Jefferson’s Misinterpretation Led to His Masterpiece: The Lawn of the University of VirginiaBruce Boucher, Ph.D.Director, Fralin Museum of ArtUniversity of Virginia

Celebrated American architect Frank Lloyd Wright designed more than 1,000 structures, and coined the phrase organic architecture to describe his design philosophy: promot-ing harmony between human habitation and the natural world through design approaches so sympathetic and well integrated with its site, that buildings, furnishings, and landscape become part of a unified, interrelated composition. From the beginning of his long career to the end, Wright fused his buildings to their settings with a unique sensitivity to natural forms. “Falling Water,” one of his most famous designs, is one among scores of examples. The lecture will analyze a number of these projects and attempt to define this aspect of Wright’s genius.

This program provides select colleges and universities with the opportunity to connect with Florida alumni by sharing recent scholarship with Museum members and public. The Museum partners with five institutions annually to offer this collegiate series of informative, thought-provoking, presentations.

In the current state-of-the-art world today, what are ways in which artists become “famous?” Inventive installations of abstract painting, new art and music, surveys of modern masters such

as Nancy Grossman, Terry Adkins, and Sister Corita Kent —all these things have shaped and influenced Ian Berry’s lively illustrated study of innovative artists and exhibitions. This review of collaborative projects between the artist and museum reveals the shifting curatorial roles among different kinds of presentations and ultimately, encourages new ways of seeing cutting edge contemporary art.

The Vero Beach Museum of Art and Atlantic Classical Orchestra’s partnership returns for its seventh season this coming January. Internationally acclaimed Grammy Award nominee and ACO music director Stewart Robertson introduces these intimate gathering of musicians for a delightful experience on the stage of the Leonhardt Auditorium. A post-concert wine and cheese reception with the musicians follows.

Gioachino Rossini (1792-1868) was one of the most influential and industrious of the great 19th-century composers. Between 1810 and 1829, he wrote 39 operas, a body of works both comedic and serious, which ushered in the Bel Canto era, transformed Italian opera, and radically altered the course of opera in France.

This 2015 course will begin on January 29, covering six rarely performed Rossini operas – three one-act “opera buffo,” and three “opera seria” —including La cambiale de matrimonio (The Bill of Marriage); La scala di seta (The Silken Ladder); L’occasione fa il ladro (Opportunity Makes the Thief); Ciro in Babilonia (Cyrus in Babylon); Matilde di Shabran (Matilda of Shabran); and Moïse et Pharaon (Moses and Pharaoh). The course will also include a documentary of Rossini’s life and a special presentation about the “Rossini tenor.”

They’re in so many movies and we know them well, we recognize them immediately, but we almost never know their names. They’re character actors, the supporting starts, the second bananas, the wise-cracking girlfriends, the tough guys who wouldn’t hurt a fly. This course will remind us of and revisit some of the greatest, in a selection of films from the 1930s through to the 21st century. Learn about some of cinema’s most memorable actors through their most interesting performances.

Film trilogies can be hard to resist. And this course samples two of France’s most recent and irresistible. First, we’ll take the measure of Cedric Klapisch’s “Globalization” trilogy, begun in 2002 with L’Auberge Espagnole, continuing with Russian Dolls (2006) and concluding with Chinese Puzzle (2013). Next, we’ll turn to Daniel Auteuil’s exceptional effort to remake all of the films of legendary French writer-director Marcel Pagnol, and the first two of his classic Marseilles Trilogy, Marius and Fanny.

This grouping of films will give us a sense of the ideas and images preoccupying filmmakers around the world. Included will be seldom-seen international festival winners – audience favorites all – as well as a title or two that may have flown in under the radar. We can expect them to feature brilliant photography, outstanding acting, and offbeat stories.

They paint, they collect, they see with passions larger than life. Who are these people? What motivates them? This series of fiction and documentary features not only explore these kinds of questions, they entertain and sometimes amaze with their insight and the characters at their centers. It illuminates the lives of some extravagantly talented artists, at the same time offering tantalizing clues as to what drove (or drives) them.

On screen, Philip Seymour Hoffman was a presence that would not be ignored. He was a force of nature, yet modest and unassuming in demeanor. He learned his craft by observing other actors, as well as from his own life’s tests and lessons. He tackled many different genres, and never backed away from any acting challenge. This course will revisit some of his greatest performances, many of which came in films that were somewhat overlooked.
