Lecture Series Masters of Light – Day 2

Sun 28 May | 10.30am–12.30pm

Across two Sundays, this lecture series explores how light takes centre-stage in critically acclaimed paintings, sculptures, photographs, films and installations by ground-breaking artists through the centuries.

Day 1 focuses on historical European art, and Day 2 on modern and contemporary art, incorporating an Indigenous lens. Presented by four passionate art and design scholars, this series accompanying our current Light from Tate: 1700s to Now exhibition is not to be missed.
