Established in 1994, THE COURSE offers exciting and innovative lectures in the History of Art, Literature, Music and Opera.
In Cultural Capitals (Budapest, Buenos Aires, Chicago, Lisbon and Monte Carlo, among the world’s most exciting and glamorous cities) Patrick Bade will explore the cultural life of these cities in periods when they were “hot”. He will take a broad view, examining architecture, visual arts, music and performing arts, social life, fashion, food and shopping.
CHICAGO
Rising like a phoenix from the ashes of the Great Fire of 1871, Chicago became one of the most dynamic cities of the early modern period. It was the city of prohibition and gangsters but also of breath-taking architecture, jazz and fabulous opera performances.
