Lecture: Van Gogh and the Avant-Garde—The Power of Place
Published 2023-07-07
Bringing together more than 75 paintings and drawings, this exhibition follows five interconnected artists—Vincent van Gogh, Georges Seurat, Paul Signac, Émile Bernard, and Charles Angrand—as they retreated to the working-class suburbs of Paris in the 1880s and found there an evolving industrial and social landscape that fueled intense creativity and experimentation.
