Current Exhibitions
|
 |
Learn how a group of creative rebels changed the course of art after the Renaissance in the exhibition Captured Emotions. The artists in this exhibition were masters of nature, texture, movement, and the human form. Many of the paintings in the exhibition interpret biblical and religious narrative by depicting a climactic, emotionally charged moment in the story.
Adapt the lesson "Telling Stories: Witness to a Brawl" to teach students how artists interpret narrative in works of art by depicting a single, often highly emotional, moment from the story. Students write newspaper articles using visual clues in a painting to imagine how the narrative depicted may have unfolded after the moment depicted.
View the lesson "Telling Stories: Witness to a Brawl."
Learn more about the exhibition Captured Emotions: Baroque Painting in Bologna, 1575–1725, on view through May 3, 2009.
