New Testament: Biblical Representations in the Collection of the Cleveland Museum of Art

Biblical themes have long been creative fodder for artists––an opportunity to explore dynamic, sometimes unsettling narrative content and to exercise visual experimentation within a particular school of aesthetics, thought, or personal style. This two-part series exploring representations of characters and scenes from both the Old and New Testaments in the collection of the Cleveland Museum of Art provides an overview of how selected artists have dealt with these time-honored episodes throughout the history of art.

The New Testament videoconference introduces depictions of Jesus, Mary, and John the Baptist in paintings, prints, and in carved ivory, for example. Join us for a sense of how the interpretation of these important stories varies in style and media, yet endures thematically through the millennia.
