Program Description

Event Details

Paul Gauguin (1848–1903) broke with accepted conventions and challenged audiences to expand their understanding of visual expression, a phenomenon evident in his portraits. Discover how Gauguin infused his work with symbolic meaning by taking on different roles like the Christ figure and the savage in his self-portraits and by placing his models in suggestive settings with alluring attributes.
