Abraham Bloemaert Lecture

In conjunction with MDNY 2019 Special Loan Exhibition FIGURE/STUDY: Drawings from the Herbert F. Johnson Museum of Art, Cornell University, Elizabeth Nogrady, curator of academic programs at the Frances Lehman Loeb Art Center, Vassar College, will explore the theme of education as it relates to the drawings of seventeenth-century Dutch master Abraham Bloemaert. Bloemaert, whose work is represented in the exhibition, never received sustained training from an established artist early in his career and was, according to biographer Karel van Mander, a “master without a master.” Nevertheless, he went on to become both a prolific artist and teacher to a large number of students in his adopted hometown of Utrecht. Drawings played a key role in both his self-education and the education he provided to the generation of artists trained in his studio. This discussion will focus primarily on drawings by Bloemaert from American academic museums, and touch on the collecting of these works as well as their pedagogical uses as they continue to serve as educational tools in the classroom today.

The lecture will be held at Carlton Hobbs in New York, at 4:00 with a reception afterward. To attend, please RSVP at the Master Drawings New York website.
