Some of the most important French artists of the 19th century resisted the elitist aesthetic of the academic art tradition by emphasizing the people around them and the human experience as subject matter during a transitioning moment in the modernist era. These are all works on paper by Degas, Renoir, Cezanne and other well-known painters. Although it was a revolutionary movement, Impressionism had roots in other styles of painting, such as Realism and Naturalism that were already challenging conventional notions of artistic beauty and the artist’s relationship with the state. Please join us in this Docent lead presentation from the Detroit Institute of Art. Register online or call the senior center at 248-723-3500. COMPLIMENTARY
