January Meeting: Robert Titus, Hartwick College - retired The Hudson River School of Art and its Ice Age origins

  • Wednesday, January 19, 2022
  • 5:30 PM - 7:30 PM
  • TBD

Registration is closed
Robert and Johanna Titus, retired professors of geology and biology, are popular science writers, focusing on Catskills and Hudson Valley geological histories. They write regular geology columns for three regional magazines and three area newspapers. They main-tain a facebook page, “The Catskill Geologist” and a blog, “thecatskillgeologist.com.” They are authors of three books, including “The Hudson Valley in the Ice Age” and “The Catskills in the Ice Age, third edition.” Robert and Johanna will be speaking about the Hud-son Valley School of Art. They argue that the landscapes painted by these great artists were originally sculpted by ice age processes. The glaciers produced the landscapes, and the artists produced the paintings. They believe that both geologists and art historians should understand this relationship. Their presentation will be suitable for professional geologists as well as all members of the general public.
