SUMMARY:German and Austrian Expressionism with Dr. Morgan Ridler
DESCRIPTION:FREE for members | $10 for non-members\nPart of the Renard Lecture Series \nIn the first decade of the twentieth century artists in France\, Germany and Italy shattered the rules of traditional art. Picasso\, Matisse\, Kandinsky\, Boccioni and others expanded on the innovations of Impressionism and Post-Impressionism and moved painting farther away from the idea that painting is a window to the world and more towards abstraction. In this series of three lectures Dr. Morgan Ridler will explore the political and social context as well as the formal innovations of Fauvism\, Cubism\, Expressionism and Futurism. These movements developed at the end of the “long” nineteenth century in a period of tremendous technological and scientific innovation and political upheaval in the run up to World War I. How did these external factors reveal themselves in paintings of nudes\, still-lives\, landscapes and the modern city? \nAbout the presenter: Morgan Ridler is an art historian based in Sleepy Hollow\, New York. Her book project Collaborative Surfaces: Bauhaus Wall Painting\, Wallpaper\, and Colored Architecture is being prepared for publication. Dr. Ridler completed her PhD in Art History at The Graduate Center\, CUNY in 2016 and has taught extensively including at The Cooper Union\, Westchester Community College\, Montclair State University and Hunter College. Recently she has taught courses at Kendal-on-Hudson and is a tour guide and trustee for The Historical Society\, serving Sleepy Hollow and Tarrytown.
