Student Gallery Discussion: “Reflecting on Rembrandt”

In the fall of 2019, students in ARHI 4310/6310, an upper-level undergraduate and graduate art history class on Northern baroque art at UGA, worked with museum staff to organize an exhibition in honor of the 350th anniversary of Rembrandt van Rijn’s death in 1669. Inspired by Rembrandt’s extraordinary facility and fame as an etcher, this exhibition seeks to consider his own development over a 40-plus-year career as well as the response of other artists from the 17th through the 21st century. The exhibition also includes responses to Rembrandt’s prints made by studio art students in Mark Callahan’s ARST 3315 class on etching. Join students and faculty from both courses for a discussion of the exhibition.
