[59] Caravaggio and the Realism of Baroque ArtDR. DONALD SCHRADER, Adjunct Professor of Art History, University of Mary Washington6 sessions, Jun 3, 10, 17, 24; Jul 1 & 8Wed, 2 – 3 pm Pauley Center Parlor$90 (VMFA members $75)Enrollment limit: 40

Michelangelo da Caravaggio, the wayward artist from Lombardy who came to Rome for the opening of the era we call the “Baroque,” introduced a new awareness of the natural world into the visual arts, influencing nearly every artist who came after him in one way or another. This class investigates the life and career of the fascinating unstable character known as Cara-vaggio and will look at both his pri-vate works, meant to remain hid-den, and his great public works whose effects were felt by contem-poraries like Artemisia Gentileschi and foreigners in Rome such as Georges de la Tour and Diego Velázquez, and even extended to great Italian masters including Ber-nini and artists who had never vis-ited Rome, such as the incompara-ble Rembrandt van Rijn.

[60] Understanding the Art of Tattoo: The Perseverance of Traditions in Contemporary Japanese ArtDR. MARGARET R ICHARDSON , Visiting Assistant Professor, Depart-ment of Fine Art and Art HistoryChristopher Newport University2 sessions, Jun 4 & 11 Thu, 6:30–8pmConference Suite & Galleries $50 (VMFA members $40)*Enrollment limit: 25

Many modern tattoo artists, like contemporary Japanese painters, sculptors, and performing artists, have drawn on traditional Japanese motifs to inspire their work. For all of these artists, various aspects of tradition have been used to reflect the persistence, relevance, and continuing evolution of their work, while they have turned to outside influences to help them conceive new forms and

concepts. Drawing from works of art in VMFA’s collection and from the special exhibition Japanese Tattoo: Perseverance, Art and Tradition, this two-part class will explore the use of Modern and Contemporary Japanese art and introduce students to artists and themes in Japanese art from the mid-20th century to the present. This class complements the special exhibition Japanese Tattoo: Persever-ance, Art and Tradition. *Cost includes admission to the exhibition.
