On December 14, New York Academy of Art faculty member Roberto Osti will give a talk on artistic anatomy and how to portray the human form. Osti will also sign copies of his recently published book Basic Human Anatomy: An Essential Visual Guide for Artists (Monacelli Press), which presents artists with the same system of line, shape and form used by da Vinci, Raphael and Michelangelo. He has exhibited extensively in Italy and the United States, including at the Bologna Museum of Modern Art, the Drawing Center and the New York Academy of Sciences, and his work has been featured in Scientific American and The New York Times.
