Description: Gainesville: University Press of Florida, 2015. 30cm., pbk., 200pp. illus. Exhibition held at Harn Museum of Art. Summary: Monet and American Impressionism will highlight twenty-five artists who launched a new way of painting in response to the influence of French Impressionism. The exhibition will present roughly fifty paintings and twenty prints dated between 1880 and 1920 by many of the leading figures in American Impressionism, such as Mary Cassatt, William Merritt Chase, Childe Hassam, Willard Metcalf, Theodore Robinson, John Henry Twachtman, and J. Alden Weir. These artists adapted the innovations of French Impressionism and ultimately paved the way to a uniquely American style of painting in the 19th century. The exhibition will include landscapes, portraits, intimate depictions of women and children, and images of modern life such as urban views and popular leisure activities. In addition to paintings from the collections of the Harn Museum of Art, Telfair Museums, and Hunter Museum of American Art, works will be on loan from a number of public museums.
