 3y2DkDlw</a></strong></p><p> </p><p>The Fall of Adam and Eve tested Renaiss
 ance artists not only through the important challenge posed by the nude\, b
 ut also because of the subject’s temporal demand: the sudden\, time-bound l
 apse from innocence to guilt. Restricted to the static medium of images\, a
 rtists engineered artworks that tangled “before” and “after” into a single 
 pregnant moment. While contrary to the principles of reason and cause\, the
 se necessary and sometimes strange and ingenious solutions nonetheless depe
 nded on reasoning both aesthetic and ethical. Condensing years of teaching 
 Adam and Eve to undergraduates in a general studies curriculum focussed on 
 “ethical reasoning\," Koerner's lecture will explore works by Hieronymus Bo
 sch\, Albrecht Dürer\, Hans Baldung Grien\, and others as powerful and some
 times dangerous prompts for ethical—and unethical—reflection on the part of
  us\, their viewers.</p><p><strong>Joseph Leo Koerner</strong> is the Thoma
 s Professor of History of Art and Architecture and Senior Fellow of the Soc
 iety of Fellows at Harvard University. He is author\, most recently\, of <e
 m>Bosch and Bruegel: From Enemy Painting to Everyday Life</em>. His feature
  film <em>The Burning Child</em>\, released in 2019\, concerns homemaking i
 n Vienna from 1900 until the present.</p>
