Lecture on Michelangelo

A sculptor, painter, architect, and poet — called divine during his lifetime, yet constantly in conflict with the world.
Hard to believe, but after finishing the Sistine Chapel, Michelangelo wrote: “Painting is not my calling.”

This lecture will explore not only Michelangelo the creator, but also the man — who spent his life battling circumstances and his own inner demons.

 Speaker: Irina Korchagina
Curator, lecturer, art historian with 20 years of experience, and expert in Italian art.
