Artists
Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Paul Cézanne
This is a touring, international exhibition designed and organised by the Musée de l'Orangerie in Paris, France, focusing together, for the first time, on two Impressionist/Post-Impressionist painters, Renoir and Cézanne.
Featuring masterpieces like Renoir’s “Two Young Girls at the Piano” and Cézanne’s “Portrait of the Artist’s Son”, the exhibition explores the origins of modern art through approximately fifty works, including portraits, still lifes, and landscapes by these two great masters, as well as pieces by Picasso, who was influenced by them.
Realised through cooperation between the Musée de l'Orangerie and the Musée d'Orsay, the exhibition travels the world, showing in Milan, then Martigny (Switzerland) and Hong Kong, before appearing at Mitsubishi Ichigokan Museum, Tokyo, the only Japanese venue for the show.
We hope that audiences will delight in the connections between Renoir and Cézanne, and in the extraordinary artistic expression of these two great masters who produced such unconstrained and diverse work on the eve of the birth of modern art.
