In partnership with Kendal at Oberlin, Erik Inglis (OC 1989), Mildred C. Jay Professor of Art at Oberlin College, delivers two webinar presentations on Albrecht Dürer. These 1.5-hour webinars are free and open to all. Register at amam.oberlin.edu/durer-webinar.
DEC 10: Albrecht Dürer: Artist as Creator and Entrepreneur
This talk will introduce the artist and printmaker, concentrating on the artistic and entrepreneurial innovations that made him a pivotal figure in art history.
DEC 17: Albrecht Dürer: Family Man
Families are a key theme in Dürer’s art. He depicted his own family, preserved their records, and frequently featured families in his prints, including those of Christ, his patron Maximilian, and representations of peasant and Turkish families.
