A double lecture on Toulouse-Lautrec and bohemian life and the social margins in late-19th-century Paris. The second lecture focuses on the Indigenous tribes in Ecuador’s rainforests, their customs, and their way of life.
Lecturer: Orly Eldubi — culture and art history researcher
Toulouse-Lautrec’s masterpieces lead us to the other Paris of the late 19th century: the world of bohemia, cafés, cabarets, and brothels. Through a direct and compassionate human perspective, his work reflects the everyday lives of lonely and exhausted figures on the margins of society.
Lecturer: Dandan Bolotin — botanist, biologist, and traveler
As part of a project on behalf of Tel Aviv University, Dandan reached places in Ecuador where no “Western” person had set foot before. He encountered the local tribes’ strange customs, secrets, foods, wars, weddings, medicinal plants, and many other fascinating stories.
