About the Event
Influenced by Gauguin and Van Gogh, the Symbolism and Expressionism movements blossomed in the early 20th century. Being the first to stress the personal feelings of the artist, they pushed the envelope of artistic self-expression to greater levels of joy, angst, and controversy. Join us to see powerful images from artists Munch, Klimt, Beckmann, and others, as Ms. Blair takes us on a visual journey (not for the squeamish), to explore our most inner fears and desires. As the owner of ARTMATTERS, Ms. Blair provides art awareness programs serving school children through senior citizens. Sponsored by a grant from the John and Mary Murphy Educational Foundation.
