The featured speaker will be a return by Harriet Hiller, discussing Famous Couples in Art History. She will begin with Italian Renaissance father and daughter painters, Orazio and Artemisia Gentileschi, then go to post revolutionary 19th century Paris with Edouard Manet and Berthe Morisot, Edgar Degas and Mary Cassatt, and Vincent and Theo Van Gogh. She will then cross the Atlantic to meet 20th century New York art world luminaries, Alfred Steiglitz and Georgia O’Keeffe, William and Elaine De Kooning, photographers Berenice Abbott and Eugene Atget, and site specific artists Christo and Jeanne-Claude.
Harriet Hiller is adjunct professor of art history at Sacred Heart University and Housatonic Community College. In her teaching, she has incorporated her expertise as a lecturer, researcher, journalist, artist, Manhattan art gallery director and private art dealer throughout Connecticut and New York.
