One Each: Still Lifes by 颁茅锄补苍苍别, Pissarro and Friends
One Each: Still Lifes by 颁茅锄补苍苍别, Pissarro and Friends focuses on still life paintings by five French painters, all created in the mid-1860s, the formative years of Impressionism. This single-gallery special exhibition, organized in partnership with the Toledo Museum of Art, will be on view at the Cincinnati Art Museum from
March 11鈥揗ay 8, 2022.
Cincinnati Art Museum鈥檚 Still Life with Bread and Eggs, a masterpiece by Paul 颁茅锄补苍苍别, and Toledo Museum of Art鈥檚 equally significant Still Life by Camille Pissarro鈥攃ornerstones of two of Ohio鈥檚 great public art collections鈥攆orm the basis of the exhibition. They are on view with a starkly confrontational still life of freshly caught fish and crustaceans from the hand of 脡douard Manet, regarded as the father of modern painting, and another by the underappreciated artist Fr茅d茅ric Bazille, paintings from the Art Institute of Chicago and the Detroit Institute of Arts, respectively. A rare early still life by Claude Monet from the National Gallery of Art rounds out the grouping.
鈥淭he paintings in this exhibition, one each by five members of the Impressionist avant-garde, display their artists鈥� mastery of technique and upending of artistic convention at a precise moment in the mid-1860s. These innovations would have long-reaching effects on the conception and practice of art, making the paintings textbook examples and their makers household names,鈥� says Dr. Peter Jonathan Bell, Cincinnati Art Museum鈥檚 Curator of European Paintings, Sculpture and Drawings. Bell organized the exhibition along with Lawrence W. Nichols, Toledo Museum of Art鈥檚 William Hutton Senior Curator, European and American Painting and Sculpture before 1900.
