Next LecturesTHURSDAY – JANUARY 18TH – 7.45 FOR 8PM – VIA ZOOM
DALI IN THE 20TH CENTURY LECTURER: JULIA MUSGRAVE The secret of my influence has always been that it remained Secret – ’Salvador Dalí' Like the Renaissance artists he admired, Salvador Dalí, painter was also writer, poet, engraver, sculptor, architect, theatre designer and jewellery designer, selecting materials to be used, focusing not just on colours or value of material, but also on their symbolic meanings. Jewels such as ‘El cor reial’ (1953, The Royal Heart) have become iconic works and are considered to be as exceptional as his paintings. An omnivorous reader as interested in science as in art and also his work reflects the Renaissance artist he admired. This lecture explores the work of Dalí the designer and science enthusiast – a Renaissance artist in the 20th century. Non members welcome cost £10. Please contact Anna Cross for payment or membership details and Zoom link at membership@radeltt-art-society.co.uk Thursday February 22nd – 7.45 for 8pm – via Zoom
THE FOUR SEASONS Lecturer: Val Woodgate For centuries the Four Seasons have acted as a reminder of the passage of time and the Ages of Man. Through the skill of the artist we can experience the torrid heat of Summer the cool Mists of Autumn, the beauty of a snow-bound Winter, The fresh brightness of Spring, and the spiritual and allegorical meaning often embedded in the subject Non members welcome cost £10.
