THE RHETORIC OF ART
Aristotle’s Ancient Greek treatise, “The Art of Rhetoric”, studies the art of persuasion and the use of rhetoric as a tool to create a compelling and creative message.
In “The Rhetoric of Art”, the SAQ will explore this concept in reverse. How does one effectively communicate and influence others through art? Can music or painting be enough to convey a persuasive message and convince an audience?
Join us for an unforgettable evening of art and music as we perform alongside recent NAS graduate, Juls Fraser, who will paint live in response to the two quartets.
Beethoven String Quartet Op.135 in F major
(Muss es sein? Es muss sein!) Must it be? It must be!
Mendelssohn String Quartet No. 2 in A minor, Op. 13
(Ist es wahr?) Is it true?
Come and find out.
