Experience art on the (very) big screen when the Rangos Giant Cinema at Carnegie Science Center presents Gauguin From The National Gallery, London. The documentary takes viewers on an intimate, guided tour of the of the major National Gallery exhibition The Credit Suisse Exhibition: Gauguin Portraits. Shot in Tahiti, France, the Marquesas Islands, and the U.K., the film also explores Gauguin's complicated legacy through what the synopsis describes as “the lens of art history, but also those of gender and post-colonial politics, reassessing his treatment of young indigenous women and his role in 19th-century French colonialism.”
