SUMMARY:The Art of Reading: Portrait of a Thief
DESCRIPTION:“Portrait of a Thief” by Grace D. Li is a thrilling heist novel that blends Ocean’s Eleven with The Farewell. Inspired by the true story of Chinese art disappearing from Western museums\, it explores themes of diaspora\, cultural theft\, and Chinese American identity.\n“Irene never cared for the bronze zodiac heads but…she knew how much it meant to China to have these pieces. Art and power. They were always the same.”\nGuided tour\, Mint Museum Randolph: Art in the Americas\, Spanish Colonial\, Contemporary Native American Ceramics galleries to see connections to our art through the lens of reclamation and resistance.

SUMMARY:Caravaggio: A Life on the Edge\, public talk with Todd Herman\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:Mint President and CEO\, and Caravaggio | Revolution curator\, Todd Herman\, PhD\, discusses the life of Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio—known simply as Caravaggio. Dubbed the “bad boy of art\,” Caravaggio lived with a swagger and carried a sword he wasn’t afraid to use. Despite the chaos that chased him from city to city\, Caravaggio never stopped painting. \nHis dramatic realism spread across Italy and eventually throughout Western Europe\, reshaping the future of art. Remarkably\, he achieved all this in just two decades\, producing only a few dozen paintings before his untimely death at the age of 38.
