10 European Art Masterworks that Everyone Should See Before They Die
Join Seattle artist, art educator, tour leader, and art critic Gary Faigin for a lively hour exploring 10 not-to-be-missed art experiences in Europe. These are culled from his many years of leading art tours to capitols like Rome, Paris, Madrid, and Berlin. More than simply a “best-of” list, this talk is a quick tour through some of the most compelling artist personalities and stories of Western Art…a rewarding evening even for the armchair traveler.
Gary Faigin is the Artistic Director and co-founder of the Gage Academy of Art in Seattle, now celebrating its 25th Anniversary. He has led art tours to Europe for the past 20 years, including most of the important art centers from Budapest to Barcelona. He was the monthly art critic on Seattle’s NPR station, KUOW for ten years, and currently writes art reviews for the Seattle Times.
