Calendar University
Art Gallery Hours: Tuesday through Saturday, 10am-5pm; Sunday, 1-6pm. "Rediscovering
Fra Angelico: A Fragmentary History" Science, art, and theology come together in a small exhibition that reunites previously separated sections of an altarpiece painted by the Renaissance master Fra Angelico (c. 1395-1455). Two of the four panels -- one depicting the Angel Gabriel announcing the coming birth of Christ and the other the Virgin Mary -- have been in the Gallery's holdings since 1959. The other two sections, from the collection of the Getty Museum, show St. Francis and a Bishop Saint on one panel and St. John the Baptist and St. Peter Martyr on the other. A curator from the Metropolitan Museum of Art first made the association between the two holdings in the early 1990s; after intense visual scrutiny and scientific analysis from both museums' conservation departments, the panels were confirmed to be components of one larger work. An installation adjacent to the panels describes the materials and techniques of early Italian artists, and a catalogue includes essays of scholarly and general interest, as well as an examination of the history of the dismantling and sale of Italian Renaissance altarpieces in the mid- to late-18th century.
School
of Architecture Hours: Monday through Saturday, 10am-5pm. "Architecture
or Revolution: Charles Moore and Architecture at Yale in the 1960s" Architect Charles Moore (1925-1993), dean of the School of Architecture from 1965 to 1970, is the focus of an exhibition that examines how the turbulent 1960s affected the teaching of architecture at Yale, and how, under Moore, Yale became a center of experimentation as well as a hub of social and political debate. (See page 13.)
