Mon 5/3 @ 7PM
Travel back to 17th century Rome through the eyes of Artemesia Gentileschi, one of the Renaissance’s foremost female painters. But her success didn’t come easily. After being raped by her father’s partner, she fought back… even under torture. Hear her tale, adapted by Jean Seitter Cummins from the novel Artemisia by Alexandra Lapierre, at a reading on Mon 5/3, 7PM @ The Alcazar [pictured]. Discussion w/ art historian to follow.
