Lecturer: James Vaux.

This lecture shows how Norse myths and legends have been portrayed in the decorative and fine arts over more than 1,300 years, revealing how few depictions we have, and the sometimes sinister reasons we may not see them.  

James is a researcher and lecturer specialising in Nordic arts, culture, design and history. His focus is on placing works in their historical context and sharing inside knowledge from his extensive research trips and visits to artists' homes and their colonies across the Nordics.
