The exhibition Through Vincent’s Eyes: Van Gogh and His Sources reconnects this iconic artist to his 19th-century context and invites us to consider the artists, musicians, and writers he admired. In a 21st-century riff on the “non- anxiety of influence,” writers Sameer Pandya and Andrew Winer play a similar connection game with artists of our time and explore the passions that emerge when creators fall under the influence of art forms other than the one they practice.

This talk is the first in a series of three related Parallel Stories exploring connections between art forms, allowing us to see those influences at work in the process of composition, the performance of music, and the poetry of narrative from the 19th century to the present day.
