The Scholars' Selection: Masterpieces of Flesh and Blood

In this episode of Art Minded, eminent Italian Renaissance and Baroque scholars discuss a selection of masterpieces featured in the special exhibition Flesh and Blood: Italian Masterpieces from the Capodimonte Museum. The paintings discussed in this podcast, by El Greco, the Caracci brothers, and Caravaggio, embody the contrasts of this exhibition: beauty and violence, seduction and reverence, tradition and modernity, classical renaissance composure and baroque dynamism. Guillaume Kientz, curator of European art at the Kimbell Art Museum, begins the discussion with Babette Bohn of Texas Christian University and Keith Christiansen, John Pope-Hennessey Chairman of European Art at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York.
