Paul Gauguin: “Where Do We Come From, Where Are We Going”

Paul Gauguin found in the exotic surroundings of Tahiti the inspiration of offering the imagination something new and strange. It was as if the artist found in the chaos of the universe a new pattern, and was attempting, clumsily at first and with anguish of the soul, to paint something revolutionary. In his attempts, Gauguin ultimately captured, with great originality, beauty in its purest form. In this presentation, discover the life and works of the experimental post-impressionist, Paul Gauguin, made famous and celebrated only after his death in 1903. Presented by Professor Karri Fritz-Klaus of Cornerstone History Symposium. Join us for the final lecture in the five part series. Free to attend. No registration required.
