COMPLIMENTARY WEBINAR

The Art of Perception

Presented by Amy Herman

SPONSORED BY:

Friends of the Uffizi Gallery & Dr. Rocky Ruggiero

Date: Thursday, May 20, 2021

Time: 5:30 – 6:30 pm ET (2:30 – 3:30 pm PT)

What do the FBI, CIA, and NATO have in common with The Uffizi? Amy Herman and The Art of Perception. In her highly participatory presentation, Ms. Herman will use the analysis of works of art as a vehicle to enhance observation, perception, and communication skills. In the pandemic’s shift to a virtual platform, effective communication is paramount. Participants will reconsider their critical inquiry skills and ability to communicate in a variety of scenarios, both personal and professional. Works of art will also be engaged as tools to understand assumptions that impede best practices and decision making. Prepare to have your eyes opened when you did not even know they were closed.

The theme is quite peculiar and curious, showing the art of shoe making in the ancient world, which also inspired Hollywood film genre of "sword and sandal" and even modern designers such as Ferragamo.

Excitingly, some of the ancient statues included in the virtual exhibition have been restored by the Friends of the Uffizi over the years.
