Event Description |
Join us for an evening of art and wine! Back by popular demand, this lecture and wine tasting by world renown wine expert Rod Phillips will focus on wine and art in America and Europe in the age of temperance – a period that includes Prohibition in America.
When temperance and prohibition became organized movements in the 1800s, and drinking became a political issue, this ambivalence was expressed in art even more sharply. There were still images that showed wine in a positive light, but some representations of wine-drinking were decidedly negative, and we can see art in the service of a social movement. The images illustrating this talk will include fine and popular art and other media produced in America and Europe. |
