Art Exhibition
“A Feast for the Eyes”
This exhibition will examine the tradition of still-life painting and the importance that food has played as a subject of the genre. The painting of food has fascinated artists since antiquity and their portrayals, in turn, bring to light a culture’s relationship with food. The exhibition is part of the Colloquium Series on HAPPINESS.
