We’re All Going to Die!
Join this spirited 90-minute art history odyssey where life, death, and the afterlife collide! From Dionysus’s divine dinner parties (unlimited wine, anyone?) to preparing for the Viking apocalypse in Valhalla, we’ll explore how cultures immortalized their visions of eternity through art. With wit, irreverence, and a touch of drama, the hereafter will be brought to life like never before. You’ll laugh, learn, and leave with a whole new outlook on art—and what’s beyond!
Join me on Monday 13 January at the fabulous Phoenix Arts Club.
Monday, 13 January at 7.30pm. Tickets are available here
Book me for an exclusive art talk for an occasion or at a venue to suit you. I’ll weave together works of art to tell stories on a specific theme. Ranging from topics such as love, fashion and the British tradition of afternoon tea, each talk combines a deep knowledge of art history with an engaging, and often surprising, narrative.
Wherever the venue and whatever the occasion, there’s an art talk to fit
I will work with you to ensure that the live art talk you book completely fits your needs. The theme, the length, the breaks or intervals (or not) and the level of audience interaction is up to you.
Here are a few examples of the themes currently on offer. There are always more in the pipeline!
Love, Lust and Lucky Escapes:
The crazy love story of Cupid and Psyche (with digressions into naughty Dutch Golden Age art and Picasso’s love life).
What to Wear to Raise an (Mouse Fur) Eyebrow:
History’s most intriguing, awkward and dangerous fashion moments told through art.
The (Art) History of Afternoon Tea:
A delicious and slightly naughty pictorial celebration of this quintessentially British tradition.
