Caravaggio’s turbulent life story reads like a crime thriller, making him one of art history’s most captivating and controversial figures. He was a revolutionary Italian painter of the Baroque era, as famous for his violent temper and criminal behavior as he was for his groundbreaking artistic techniques. Caravaggio’s paintings reflect his tumultuous life with dramatic lighting and intense realism. The program provides an overview of the artist’s life and body of work.
