Wallace<\/h2>\n<p>William E. Wallace received his Ph.D. in Art History from Columbia University in New York in 1983 and is currently Professor in the Department of Art History and Archaeology at Washington University in St. Louis. He teaches Renaissance art and architecture, and is an internationally recognized authority on Michelangelo and his contemporaries. In 1990-91 he was a fellow at Harvard University\u2019s Center for Renaissance Studies in Florence; in 1996-97 he was at the American Academy in Rome; and in 1999 he was Distinguished Visiting Professor at Williams College. In addition to more than eighty essays, chapters and articles (as well as two works of fiction), he is the author and editor of six different books on Michelangelo, including <i>Michelangelo: The Artist, the Man, and his Times<\/i> (2010), which has been widely hailed as the foremost recent study of the artist. He served as the principal consultant for <i>The Divine Michelangelo<\/i>, a two-part film produced by the BBC.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lecture Date: April 23, 2013 &nbsp; Professor Wallace\u2019s biography has been called \u201cthe most important re-assessment of Michelangelo in more than one hundred years.
