Mozart to Matisse: The Flourishing Line—18th-Century Rococo Art

Join the Columbus Museum of Art and Columbus Symphony Orchestra for an afternoon of visual art and music. The Rococo style of the eighteenth century was full of rebellion, with artists such as François Boucher, Thomas Gainsborough, and Elisabeth Vigée Le Brun eschewing established artistic traditions and producing elaborate paintings. A discussion on these artists and others, including designers of decorative arts from the period, will be followed by music that compliments this ornate style.
