Feb. 16: Turner’s Modern World
Presenter and Coordinator: Bruce Magnuson*
Turner's Modern World-The British artist JMW Turner's career spanned the tumultuous changes of Europe in the early to mid 1800's. We will explore the art and times of Turner and his revolutionary idea of painting contemporary scenes. From 3/27/2022-7/10/2022 the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston will be the final stop for the exhibition "Turner's Modern World." This LIRA session will provide a context of Turner and his place in the pantheon of Western Art. Hopefully also whetting the appetite for those who may want to visit the exhibition while it is here in Boston.
