The Timken is fortunate to have a collection of Russian icons, because this form of sacred art of the Eastern Rite is to a great extent important to the development of Renaissance art. Mostly tempera on panel, these icons are portraits of Jesus and his mother, saints, or Bible episodes depicted in the Byzantine style. In the Timkens's own early Renaissance works, the influence of these icons can be seen. We will discuss some of the salient points about this unique art form in order to understand its meaning and significance in this docent-led talk. Our free virtual tours allow you to step inside the museum and explore one of the greatest collections of paintings, from the comfort of your home. We recommend you download zoom in advance. If you have any questions please contact Alexandra at ariley@timkenmuseum.org or 619-550-5955.

The Parker Edison Project podcast is back for Season 2. This time around we explore culture in our city and how it plays out in our everyday lives; like how nature affects our mental health, and how freeways can also divide communities. We uncover the forgotten history of San Diego, and the events that helped shape the city. We also learn something new about this city we love so much. And back by popular demand- “Movies Millennials Should Movie” and “Six Degrees of Separawayans”. This is the Parker Edison Project, a sonic exploration of culture as a lifestyle, where each episode starts with a thought-provoking talk and ends with a musical bang. Outro music: "Step Down" by the Sure Fire Soul Ensemble Show Credits: Parker Edison (Host), Kurt Kohnen (Co-creator) and Chris Reyes (Head Editor)
