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.
In our final film in the series, Pierce Brosnan stars as Thomas Crown, a billionaire who stages an elaborate heist to steal Monet’s San Giorgio Maggiore at Dusk from the Metropolitan Museum of Art. As the investigation into the theft of this priceless artwork ensues, Crown and insurance investigator Catherine Banning (Rene Russo) find themselves falling for each other.
Registration is required, and space is limited. The film screening and Q&A will be held in the Polk Museum of Art's Auditorium. Registration opens approximately 90 days before the event date!
