The Meaning of Art

Finding the ultimate value of looking at art and making art

Lecture by Ilya Gefter

Some encounters with art have the most profound, life-changing human significance and some encounters are utterly forgettable.

In the lecture we examine this spectrum to discover what makes great artworks most meaningful, and how they can be experienced more deeply.

The aims of this conversation are ambitious:

• Helping you discover the meaning of art you look at.

• Making the process of looking at art more valuable on a personal level.

• Discovering how the process of painting can be most meaningful and gratifying for the artist.
