The next Gallery Talk sessions took place over the course of last week, with John Timmons stepping into the office to cover Bonaventura Berlinghieri’s Byzantine altar piece on Saint Francis and Gustave Courbet’s work. We read, we talk, and follow where ever things lead.

The first vidcast covers certain reading issues and relationships. “What do we do with this stuff and what happens when we read it?” is an operative question. The podcast that follows sets up the next vidcast (coming soon) on Courbet and is a slice of the final leg of the conversation, so it jumps into he middle of something. In it we step through certain issues that come up with “newness” and subject matter.
