We don't talk about fresco painting that often in our lectures. Meanwhile, a large part of the history of painting is the history of frescoes: painting is born as wall painting and has remained in this format for a long time. The walls and columns of all ancient temples and palaces were covered with paintings, and in the lecture we will begin our excursion with the beautiful and poetic frescoes of the caves of Altamir, Lascaux, Font de Gaume - let's go where art is born! ‣ Then we will look at the frescoes of the Palace of Knossos on the island of Crete - the famous Labyrinth in which the legendary King Minos and the monstrous Minotaur lived. ‣ Let's follow the changes in the technology and concept of fresco painting in Antiquity, and then again in the Renaissance in Italy. There and then, it was a favorite format of the Titans: Botticelli, Michelangelo, Leonardo and Raphael. ‣ Let's admire the huge monumental paintings of ceilings-plafonds in the Baroque era, see how the style and system of images of frescoes in Art Nouveau were updated by Klimt and Vrubel. And, finally, let's return to our century: let's look at the monumental paintings of Mexican artists of the 20th century - the murals of Diego Rivera, Orozco, Siqueiros, and also understand why graffiti and street art are art, not vandalism.
