Run time: 125 minutes

Get ready for the 2023-2024 season of Cinéma Art Historique! This free-admission film series is designed to explore the connections between art history and cinema. After each screening, enjoy a Q&A and discussion with Dr. Alex Rich, Executive Director and Chief Curator, about how the evening's film aligns with the histories and stories it strives to tell.

Next up in this year’s series: Surviving Picasso (1996). This film tells the story of Françoise Gilot, a young painter who later becomes Picasso’s mistress and muse. Gilot must reconcile her relationship with the prolific artist with the other women in his life, while considering her own place as an artist in her own right.

Registration is required, and space is limited. The film screening and Q&A will be held in the Polk Museum of Art's Auditorium.
