Bomberg and Kitaj – Two Types of Jewish Agony in Paint
ANNUAL TALK
Sat 14 Dec, 12–1pm
Taylorian Lecture Theatre
With Sir Simon Schama, Art Historian, Author and BBC Presenter
Although separated by a generation, artists David Bomberg (b. 1890) and R. B. Kitaj (b.1932) shared a passionate intensity in their work that was marked by their response to the deeply troubled century in which they lived, and in particular, the rise of antisemitism. Learn how both painters expressed the power of art to mirror the darkness of the contemporary world.
