Art Talk: Vincent Van Gogh

Vincent Van Gogh: Color and Passion
Presenter: Janet Mandel, Arts Educator 

Registration required: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_rxjTWIOFR-uUSK5CU_81kQ

Throughout his life, Vincent van Gogh was poor, often hungry and ill.  When he died in 1890 at the age of 37, it seemed that his work would be forgotten.  All that has changed, and Vincent is now perhaps the most famous painter of all.  This talk will look at Vincent’s life through his colorful, bold and passionate paintings. Although his works were created many years ago, these remarkable images capture the world in a modern and exciting way.

Sponsored by the Friends of the Pennington Public Library and the Hopewell Valley Arts Council.
