Initially allied in their efforts to reform the Catholic Church, the two had a bitter falling out over such key matters as works and faith, conduct and creed, free will and predestination. Erasmus embraced pluralism, tolerance, brotherhood, and a form of the Social Gospel rooted in the performance of Christ-like acts; Luther stressed God’s omnipotence and Christ’s divinity and saw the Bible as the Word of God, which had to be accepted and preached, even if it meant throwing the world into turmoil. Their rivalry represented a fault line in Western thinking - between the Renaissance and the Reformation; humanism and evangelicalism - that remains a powerful force in the world today. $15 door fee for guests and subscribers Tuesday, January 15, 2019 GUESTS WELCOME 1:30 pm Central Presbyterian Church (7308 York Road, Towson) Le Jazz Hot: French Art Deco Bonita Billman, instructor in Art History, Georgetown University What is Art Deco? The early 20th-century impulse to create “modern” design objects and environments suited to a fast- paced, industrialized world led to the development of countless expressions, all of which fall under the rubric of Art Deco.

This exhibit, inserted within the permanent collection and architecture of the museum, overlaps contemporary artworks with the Carroll Mansion's rich history. Over time, this building has functioned as Charles Carroll's residence last living signer of the Declaration of Independence, a saloon, tenement apartments, a clothing sweatshop, vocational school, recreation center, and historic site. An amazing collection of Baltimore artists in addition to artists from Austin, New Orleans, New York, and Berlin, bring the past and present in stuttering tandem. The works range from Andrew Shenker composing the museum's collection with his own, to C. Ryan Patterson's rain barrel installation and workshop, to Monique Crabb's ceremonial revisit to objects from a loved one. The clothing sweatshop history is approached with Laure Drogoul's re-creation, PERGA's performance garment laboratory, Elke Graalfs' painted pattern, Liz Ensz's immersive pattern environment, and Andrea Bocchio's garments inspired by counterfeiting.

  • Bringing Maryland's Art Home
    FISCAL YEAR 2016 ANNUAL REPORT MARYLAND STATE ARTS COUNCIL A MESSAGE FROM GOVERNOR LARRY HOGAN Dear Friends, Across the country, Maryland is known as an outstanding leader in supporting and promoting the arts. Nearly 8.3 million Marylanders participate in and enjoy many diverse forms of art, from exhibitions and performances to family-fun festivals. At any time during the year, these dynamic and interactive educational experiences allow our citizens and visitors to enjoy a better quality of life. The First Lady and I are huge proponents of the arts, which provide a catalyst for the revitalization and vibrancy of communities both small and large. From Garrett County in the west to Worcester County in the east, increased access to the arts allows for meaningful lifelong learning and empowers Maryland citizens to create, imagine and innovate. As an economic driver, the arts also create jobs and fuel our economy, accounting for nearly $1 billion in total economic impact and 12,000 full-time equivalent jobs. Maryland artists make all of this possible, and for nearly half a century the Maryland State Arts Council has worked tirelessly to invest in deserving artists and arts organizations in our state. This report serves as a testament to the Arts Council’s commitment to enhancing the statewide arts infrastructure, impacting and strengthening the lives of Maryland’s citizens, and bolstering Maryland’s economy. The arts are at work in Maryland, ensuring opportunities and a better quality of life for all. Thank you for bringing the vibrancy of art into our lives, and it is my hope that you and your families continue to discover the excellence and diversity of the arts across our great state.
