The Impressionist Revolution: Monet to Matisse from the Dallas Museum of Art explores the fascinating story of Impressionism from its birth in 1874 to its legacy in the early 20th century. This exhibition reveals the rebellious origins of the independent artist collective known as the Impressionists and the revolutionary path they paved for modern art.
Breaking with tradition in both how and what they painted, as well as how they showed their work, the Impressionists redefined what constituted cutting-edge contemporary art. Core members such as Claude Monet, Edgar Degas, and Berthe Morisot introduced unique innovations and set the foundation against which following generations of avant-garde artists, from Paul Gauguin and Vincent van Gogh to Piet Mondrian and Henri Matisse, reacted.
