>> Micah Christensen
>>
>> Each week, a new lecture will focus on an artist or artwork that was once highly-regarded, but which — through the accidents of history or changes in aesthetics tastes — has since become obscure. Exploring each work within the oeuvre of the artist and the larger context of the period, the lecture will attempt to re-establish an appreciation for those artists who deserve to be remembered for their contributions.
>>
>> We invite you and your friends to hear Micah present his lecture series.
>>
>> All lectures on Wednesday evenings from 4:30 - 5:30pm, at the Beaux Arts Academy.
>> Forgotten Masters Lecture Series for May 13, 2015
>>
>> ABOUT THE SERIES
>>
>> Every other week we explore the life and work of artists who were once highly regarded and influential; but, who have since fallen into relative obscurity. The lecture is geared towards a broad audience — from those who simply love art to experienced artists and scholars. Each lecture is free and lasts about 90 minutes.

>>
>> JOACHIM PATINIR (Belgian, 1480 - 1524)
>>
>> For the next lecturing in our ongoing series, we discuss the life, work, and influence of Joachim Patinir , considered to be the father of landscape painting. A pioneer of oil painting, Patinir depicted epic scenes from mythology, history, and scripture in jewel-like colors and remarkably small scale. His works were collected by Kings and influenced a generation of painters, including Pieter Bruegel and Peter Paul Rubens. Yet today, we are only aware of a handful of works. Join us as we remember and celebrate his work.
