Impressionism revolutionized art, rejecting convention in favor of bold strokes, vivid color, and fresh vision. Sean Crum will discuss examples of impressionist art by Manet, Monet, Degas, and Renoir.
The Impressionists forged a new way of painting and looking at the natural world. They challenged historical conventions that stood for centuries and created a new vision based on direct observation, bold brush strokes, high keyed color, and a keen awareness of the science of perception. The art of Manet, Monet, Degas, and Renoir are featured.
