Professor Cliff Edwards to speak on Van Gogh this Friday at Union-PSCE
One of Virginia Commonwealth University’s most popular professors, Dr. Cliff Edwards, will speak at Union Theological Seminary (Union-PSCE) this Friday, November 9, at 7:15 pm.
Edwards, professor of religion and arts at VCU and author of three books on Vincent Van Gogh, will discuss his latest book, “The Mystery of Van Goghâs Night Café,” at a public lecture in Watts Hall on the Union-PSCE campus. Edwards will discuss the tortured spiritual search of the artist Van Gogh as exemplified in his painting “The Night Café.”
The lecture is being held in conjunction with “The Body of Christ,” a juried art exhibition sponsored by the Washington Theological Consortium; the exhibit is on display through December 14 in the William Smith Morton Library on the campus of Union-PSCE. Following Edwards’ lecture, several of the artists will be present to speak about their work during a dessert reception in the library.

I am very much interested in Dr Edwards presentation on Van Gogh – is there a video recording available?
Thank you,
