CCR Remote Lecture: Aubrey Beardsley - December 15, 2020

Picasso, Klee, Münch, and many other 20th century artists owe so much to Aubrey Beardsley (1872-1898), a young English artist who died of tuberculosis aged 25. An original, solitary, sickly genius, Beardsley shocked Victorian society with an ambiguous and entrancing world of his own creation. In the 1960s, his works briefly enjoyed a second wave of popularity and this year an exhibition at the Tate in London and another at the Musée d’Orsay were meant give him back the limelight he so rightly deserves. Join us for the next CCR virtual lecture as we delve into Beardsley, his art, and his times.
