This Week on “The Morning Show”:
P.E.M. Curator Karina Corrrigan on Saints, Sinners, Lovers & Fools:
300 Years of Flemish Masterworks
This week I have the honor of interviewing Karina Corrigan, Associate Director of Collections and the H.A. Crosby Forbes Curator of Asian Export Art at the Peabody Essex Museum in Salem about the exhibition “Saints, Sinners, Lovers, and Fools: 300 Years of Flemish Masterworks.”
This exhibition is stunning and impactful. goregous and thought provoking.
Karina will talk about what made Flanders culturally and historically important from the 15th through the 17th centuries. She will discuss how Flemish painters such as Rubens, VanDyck, and Breughel, created new ways of seeing that were precursors to contemporary forms of artistic representation.
She will also describe innovations in technique and materials that give Flemish paintings their signature vibrant and luminous colors.
Other topics Carina will discuss include the role of art in religious worship; innovations in landscape painting and portraiture; and the development of “cabinets of curiosities” to display artifacts gathered by explorers and traders from around the world.
The exhibition will be on display through May 4th. For more information visit www.PEM.org.
