Mozart to Matisse | Worldbuilding and Judeo-Christian Themes in Contemporary Art

This event pairs an engaging lecture with live music for an enriching afternoon at the Columbus Museum of Art. Katherine Brodbeck, the museum's Deputy Director for Curatorial Affairs, will discuss how present-day artists use stories from the Bible to create immersive artistic experiences that invite viewers to see things in fresh ways. Her talk ties into a celebration of Haydn's classical composition *The Creation*. Following the presentation, you'll hear musicians from the Columbus Symphony Orchestra perform live, making this a well-rounded experience that combines intellectual discussion with beautiful music. It's a wonderful option if your family enjoys exploring art and music together, or if you're curious about how historical themes appear in modern creativity. The combination of talk and performance means there's something engaging for different interests and attention spans.
