More than 60 works appear in SDMA’s new exhibition 'Monet to Matisse: Impressionist Masterpieces from the Bemberg Foundation' that opens March 19
The spring of 1874 in Paris shook up the art world. The San Diego Museum of Art’s Curator of European Art, Michael Brown, explains:
Among those artists were Camille Pissarro, Alfred Sisley, Berthe Morisot and Claude Monet, whose ”Impression, Sunrise,” a painting of the port of La Havre, his hometown, gave a name to the Impressionist Movement. Curator Brown calls “Monet to Matisse,” featuring works from the 1870s to the 1930s, “equally if not more expansive than the Old Masters . This is a collection that hasn’t traveled before and probably won’t again for a very long time.”
This was at the heart of the Impressionists’ ethos. “This incredible and very courageous movement began with the idea of painting out of doors,” Brown said. But the history that preceded them was not lost on the Impressionists.
