Guest Tutor Alison Barker
Does it follow that a passionate, violent nature will inevitably create dramatic, even dark, artworks? The life of Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio was full of drama and passion and, it could be argued, that his art mirrored his life. However, though sometimes deeply disturbing, Caravaggio’s paintings demonstrate an understanding of realism and also of faith. The course will analyse both the art and the man, and through a thorough exploration of his oeuvre, get closer to the meaning in Caravaggio’s works.
