Set in 17th century Venice, the story centers on the passionate painter, Galactia, and her determination to express truth through her art. In the subsequent struggle between artist and authority, Howard Barker's contemporary play illuminates many questions about the role of the artist in society. A rousing evening of theatre produced in collaboration with The Department of Art and Art History.
