Czas Sztuki – is back! From November to April, every other Tuesday, we invite you to meetings with art! This series is a real treat for all art lovers – both for those who are just discovering its richness, as well as for enthusiasts who want to deepen their knowledge.

"Women in paintings. Dalila, Judith and Salome - the most famous temptresses: beautiful, cunning and cruel. Analysis of a work of art". Explanation of the concepts of iconology and iconography. Analysis of the form and content of the works discussed, according to Ewin Panofsky's method: pre-iconographic description, iconographic analysis, iconological interpretation. Selected examples of European painting will be used to present various approaches to the subject, which we could now call a leitmotif building narratives in the painting. To what extent, in light of the literary source, did the heroines of the canvases influence their own actions, and to what extent was it destined for them? The lecture will be given by art historian Dorota Rucka-Marmaj.
