Description

 

Looking Together: MFA Visit and Discussion With Nancy Gruskin and Kathleen Jacobs

Meet at the Museum of Fine Arts

The tour is limited to 20 participants

Finding inspiration from paintings at the MFA, painters Nancy Gruskin and Kathleen Jacobs will conduct an informative walk, look and talk about their favorite works in the museum's collection. Participants will meet at the museum at 10am sharp. As we walk through the different time frames, the discussion will be focused on simply understanding painting from a visual standpoint; the use of color, shape, form, composition, and the feelings or narrative that may be transmitted from the work. We will discuss how and why these works have inspired us and how they have changed over the centuries. Lunch together at the museum is an option (but not included in the fee) in order to continue our dialogue about our favorite paintings.
