    “Sister Wendy Beckett has transformed public appreciation of art through her astonishing knowledge, insight and passion for painting and painters.” This set includes Sister Wendy's Story of Painting, Sister Wendy's Odyssey, and Sister Wendy's Grand Tour.

  • Exit Through the Gift Shop
    Exit Through the Gift Shop
    When British stencil artist Banksy traveled to Los Angeles to work, he came across obscure French filmmaker Thierry Guetta and his badly organized collection of videotapes involving the activities of graffiti artists. Inspired, Banksy assembled them with new footage to create this talked-about documentary, and the result is a mind-boggling and odd film (so strange as to be thought a hoax by some) about outsider artists and the definition of art itself.
  • The Impressionists
    The Impressionists

  • The Impressionists: The Other French Revolution

“Don’t Confuse Me with the ‘Facts’…”

DateMonday, January 22, 2018 at 9:00AM

Jill Kiefer will be wearing her Art Historian's Hat for this OAC ‘Art Speaks’ program on Sunday, 1/28, at 2:00 PM. Jill will take us on a fascinating journey with respect to a particular work of art (surprise) and will be making observations about other artworks, too.

Discover both the strengths and weaknesses of Art History and Art Criticism. See how scholars and scientists work--and how they can often get it so WRONG...or so RIGHT!

Learn (and see) a bunch of FUN facts you probably don't know about some of your favorite art...and artists!

Don't miss this entertaining adventure in "doing" art history.

Sunday, January 28th - 2:00-3:30 PM

Light Refreshments Will Be Served
