Epilogue
To close each of the MOOC’s forums, we have chosen to dedicate its last video to 18th century painting and the invention of art criticism as a literary genre. Diderot, tasked by his friend Grimm to comment on the biennial exhibition organised by the Academy of Fine Arts, has written magnificent texts that we will be listening over the weeks as we contemplate the works.
But first of all, for this first forum, in an interview with Colas Duflo and Fabrice Moulin, we will focus on this institution of the Salons and the conditions under which Diderot wrote about painting.
