What did they look like and how did they see themselves? Self-portraiture offers a lens through which to explore numerous artists’ legacies. This program, the third in a series of talks on women artists from history, will focus on the Nineteenth Century, a period of tremendous growth in the number of women who achieved careers in the visual arts.
The presenter, Robert Bunkin, is a painter, art historian and curator, who taught art history for over 40 years in art schools, universities, cultural centers and museums around New York City and abroad. Bunkin is also a regular Ceres Gallery receptionist since 2023.
