"Edouard Manet"
7:00 p.m. - 8:30 p.m.
Speaker: Michael Farrell
Although not officially considered an
Impressionist, Manet's unorthodox approach
to subject matter, composition and technique placed him among
the young French
moderns who would become known as the Impressionists. Professor
Farrell has been a professor of art history and founder of the
Honors Art
History Program at the University of Windsor, Ontario, Canada, since
1968. He has
also taught for Central Michigan University and the College for
Creative Studies, and
as adjunct education curator at the Detroit Institute of Arts and
the Detroit Historical
Museum . Professor Farrell's entertaining and informative lecture
style has made him
a popular and much sought after speaker.
