The Impressionist Era: Works on Paper
07 Jan, 2008 - 16 Mar, 2008
33 artists who participated in the eight Impressionist exhibitions held in Paris between 1874 and 1886 are included in this show. While their styles, subjects and techniques were diverse, they were united in their willingness to experiment and question traditional aesthetic standards and art world practices. Many of the artists were mentors, friends, competitors, and followers. Some were forerunners of the Impressionist movement, revealing how the movement emerged out of established trends in the mid-19th century. Others were from the generation that followed, the 1890s, emerging out of developments that paved the way for the avant-garde art. Among the artists represented in the exhibition are Pierre Bonnard, Mary Cassatt, Edgar Degas, Toulouse Lautrec, Paul Cezanne, Vincent Van Gogh, Corot, the exhibition is drawn from the collections of the Carnegie Museum of Art, Pittsburgh, and the Kresge Art Museum.
