Spanning six centuries and different cultures, four paintings reveal how artists engage with art historyand become part of it.
Art history isnt linear. Artists mix and remix references, finding inspiration across time.
When contemporary artist Rozeal. began painting afro.died, T. in 2011 in her studio just outside Washington, DC, she didnt have Titians Venus with a Mirror in mind. Paul Cezanne wasnt thinking about Titians Ranuccio Farnese when he painted Boy in a Red Waistcoat in 19th-century France. Yet these works share striking visual similarities with Titians 16th-century paintings.
Back and Forth illuminates unexpected connections between these four works and invites us to see them in new ways.
