UPCOMING EXHIBITION

Renoir in the 20th Century

February 14, 2010—May 9, 2010

This exhibition is the first monographic study dedicated to Renoir since the comprehensive retrospective of 1985 at the Galeries nationales du Grand Palais in Paris, and the first one ever mounted by the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Offering an unprecedented look at Renoir through the lens of modernism, the exhibition bridges the divide that exists in many people’s minds between art of the nineteenth and the twentieth centuries. It presents a “modern” Renoir to a present-day audience that threatens to lose touch with the art of the familiar “nineteenth-century Renoir.”
