SUMMARY:Dutch Art in a Global Age: Masterpieces from the Museum of Fine Arts\, Boston
DESCRIPTION:Observers in the seventeenth century described the Netherlands as the world’s marketplace. Dutch merchants possessed a capitalist mindset and benefited from innovations in naval and military technology. The Dutch East India Company\, the world’s first multinational corporation\, was founded in 1602 to dominate trade in the Pacific and Indian Oceans\, forever changing the global economy. New commodities flowed to the Dutch Republic and made a small nation immensely rich. This in turn fueled an artistic boom. The most famous Dutch artists in the seventeenth century—Hals\, Rembrandt\, Ruisdael\, Ruysch—are still admired today. \n\n\n\nThis exhibition explores how international travel and trade transformed Dutch art and society. Still life paintings feature imported products; seascapes\, landscapes\, and maps reveal where these products came from. A section including cityscapes and maps addresses Amsterdam’s rise as Europe’s commercial hub. The focus then turns to Dutch portraits\, both painted and printed. Local landscapes show how exposure to the world’s wonders paradoxically reinforced pride in Dutch topography. The exhibition concludes with beautiful objects in silver and ceramic and depictions of daily life\, demonstrating the coexistence of the familiar and the foreign. Throughout\, this exhibition emphasizes artistic achievement while encouraging visitors to consider the human costs of global commerce. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister

SUMMARY:First Responders of Democracy: Protecting Press Freedom Worldwide
DESCRIPTION:To mark this year’s World Press Freedom Day (WPFD)\, The Atlanta Press Club\, WABE\, World Affairs Council of Atlanta\, Online News Association (ONA)\, and the British Consulate-General Atlanta will host a free afternoon event series highlighting global media freedom’s importance. This year’s WPFD takes place amidst several significant conflicts\, the incarceration of Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich and others\, and fifty national elections across the globe. All this as democratic institutions in many countries are increasingly threatened\, making freedom of the press more important than ever. \n\n\n\nThe purpose of this event it to explore all this and more with Atlanta’s top journalists\, media experts\, and student community. The workshop will start with a “Reporting Safely” workshop led by the Niketa Panel of CUNY and ONA\, followed by a panel discussion moderated by former journalist and World Affairs Council President Rickey Bevington. The panel will bring together veteran local and international journalists\, including WABE’s Alex Helmick\, award-winning independent journalist\, Katja Ridderbusch and Sophia Qureshi\, 285 South\, to share personal stories from the frontline and discuss why press freedom is critical to democracy. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister
