Postponed: Humanist Explorations - The Art of Charles and Margaret Mackintosh

This event has been rescheduled for the first Saturday in February.
At the turn of the Twentieth Century, the world of Art and Architecture began to evolve into a style known as "Art Nouveau" (New Art). This new approach to art and the message it conveyed was revolutionary in many respects. Architect Charles Rennie Mackintosh was one of the most illustrious figures in this movement. Less well known was his wife, Margaret MacDonald Mackintosh, but she was an artist of unparalleled brilliance in her own right. Once, when approached about his level of capability, Mackintosh responded, "I had talent, but Margaret had genius." Their lifelong collaborative efforts were such that he signed their work with both names. This presentation will explore some of the finest and most important works of the Fin de Siècle and provide a view into the changes in the world of art into the Twentieth Century.
