Cinquecento Presents: The Divine Nature of Leonardo
September 18, 2019 at 7:00 PM
| Location: | 100 St. Patrick's Building |
| Cost: | Free |
While modern audiences embrace Leonardo da Vinci as a secular scientist and artistic genius, Randi Klebanoff proposes to look at da Vinci within the context of the theocentric understanding of the cosmos that was his contemporary context.
In this lecture Klebanoff will examine how da Vinci’s highly original depictions of the divine related to 15th century artistic efforts in imaging God’s paradoxical immanence and transcendence in the world, and to theological ideas of nature, cognition, and the divine.
