SUMMARY:The Cézanne Effect: Art Talk with George Shackelford
DESCRIPTION:Though he had a long career\, Paul Cézanne rarely exhibited in Paris before a retrospective brought him out of near obscurity in 1895. From that point on\, Cézanne’s art exerted a profound influence on a young generation of painters and spurred the development of many artistic movements in the 20th century. \nJoin George Shackelford\, Deputy Director at the Kimbell Art Museum in Fort Worth\, Texas\, as he bridges the eras of Impressionism\, Post-Impressionism\, and Art Nouveau and sets the stage for the arrival of AMFA’s exhibition\, Rivera’s Paris\, opening on February 7\, 2025. \nLive open captioning is provided during this event. \nAfter the lecture\, enjoy dinner at AMFA’s Park Grill. Space is limited. To make reservations\, contact: 501-396-0390 or parkgrill@arkmfa.org. \n\nAbout George Shackelford\n\nGeorge Shackelford is deputy director of the Kimbell Art Museum in Fort Worth\, Texas.
