Curator's Special: Impressionist and Modern Masters from the New Orleans Museum of Art
Presented by Blake Milteer – FAC Curator of 19th to 21st Century American Art
When the Impressionists chose to create very personalized visions of everyday life rather than depicting more traditional subjects of history, religion, or mythology, they helped to transform the history of art forever. Impressionist paintings are now considered among the building blocks of Modern art.
*Class meets in the Screening Room for lectures and in the galleries to look at the art.
