DESCRIPTION:Sep 19\, 2026 - Jan 10\, 2027\nIn his Lives of the Most Excelle
 nt Painters\, Sculptors\, and Architects\, the 16th-century painter Giorgi
 o Vasari accorded Antonio da Correggio\, “the first modern painter of Lo
 mbardy\,” a sort of second-class status. If only Correggio\, who lived f
 rom 1489 to 1534\, had gone to Rome and studied antiquity\, Vasari posits\
 , he would have rivaled “the great artists.” Vasari is provocative abo
 ut Correggio’s shortcomings. “Timid and overanxious\, he subjected him
 self to severe and continuous labor for the support of his family. While h
 e bore this oppressive burden\, he afflicted himself further by resisting 
 the temptations common to all mankind.” What does Vasari mean? Was he al
 luding to some lack of personal fulfillment in Correggio? To suppressed de
 sires that found expression in the sensuality that pervades his art? After
  all\, Correggio’s paintings also won high praise from Vasari. “We may
  say that no artist has used color more effectively than he\, nor has any 
 painted in a more charming manner\, or given more form to his figures. He 
 used exquisite softness of color and finished his work with the most attra
 ctive grace.” Expect some answers at “Correggio. Movingly Human\,” t
 he first major survey of the artist presented outside of Italy. With 20-pl
 us masterpieces on view\, along with works by the artist’s contemporarie
 s\, it argues that Correggio brought the same sense of humanity and deep r
 apture to subjects both sacred and sexual\, biblical and mythological.
