Back to Chicago sights
Art Institute's Cezanne Show (September 1, 2022)
The show closes Sept. 5, so we decided to squeeze in a visit.
Members get in early, but there are a lot of members
C. 1891, Madam Cezanne in a Yellow Chair
1905. The Large Bathers: Some comment on this image just below
along with several related composition from earlier in Cezanne’s career.”
(Some of these works were owned by Henri Matisse, Henry Moore, and Pablo Picasso.)
"These paintings encapsulate the contradictions of Cezanne
himself, their modern vision balanced by the desire to create a new
classical expression, timeless as icons in a museum but simultaneously
As urgent as the brush marks that compose them."
