Normandy in the works of the Impressionists, Kiev
 

The National Museum at Grushevskogo in Kiev before the end of September , an exhibition of Impressionist Normandy. Phenomenon in every sense of the ordinary , I do not remember a single Impressionist exhibition in no place in Kiev. Secondly, as I understand it , is an exhibition of a private collection in the museum . Oh, and third, our forum users , Kiev silent , as if every day in Kiev opened the exhibition of Impressionists.
One thread was? What are your impressions ? (including , of all true ?)

I saw the catalog of this collection.

Loudly, the Impressionists.

Nothing impressed.

If the directory will give a couple of days, scan and lay out.

uriart, I heard about a city that has already visited the exhibition , among them the major art capitals , all of a hole , so that the age-old question , stole and not to create a provenance goes exhibition? also very interesting museum to pay money for an exhibition or a gift ?
I'm going to sezdit , in any event is unusual for Kiev , but can not find the time , so he thought , who can already go? ...

Seriy, the museum did not pay .
There should be a show here in Dnepropetrovsk. Embassy representative brought to our catalog hud.muzey . All organizational costs the French took over.
Not excluding such that approval authenticity of some of their work is passed through such exhibitions .

To Kiev exhibition was in Lviv.

First Ukrainians had the unique opportunity to admire the masterpieces of famous French artists in the Ukraine. France made the gift on the occasion of the 20th anniversary of diplomatic relations with Ukraine. About 60 paintings by Monet, Renoir, Villon, Boudin, Géricault, Courbet, Corot and the other artists on display in Kiev. This trip Normandy XIX-early XX century coasts, rural corners, green pastures, small hotels and cafes. Twenty years ago, the Regional Council of Lower Normandy began compiling a collection of paintings titled "Normandy in the painting." Today it consists of 120 paintings from the 1750s to the 1950s, and is presented in a former convent Abbey Dame. Annually inspect the paintings more than 10 thousand visitors. Each work of art is associated with Normandy. The value of this collection is that it demonstrates the diversity of artistic styles: realism, romanticism, impressionism and post-impressionism, all the movements that led to the modernism of the twentieth century

Was on display.
Impressionist - one, two and a handful.
Just "Norman" a collection of different style of artists.
The names of high-profile and important works are not seen.

Work , well, average. But it is also interesting to see not top artists of the day as well , so to speak , the background on which the top class was created. + Nature Normandy. Personally, I have learned from this vytavki opinion that our Ukrainian artists of the same period, very , very much. Simple, perhaps , less promoted .

K Elena, +101%!!!

A Russian is even better!

Probably still not correct to compare which is better or worse . Especially, in the case of Normandy have to compare the average level of the same . I am a Russian painting , in general, not very much, compared to ours or European. But this does not mean that it is better or worse. Moreover , the nature of France is very different from ours and the painting is also strongly reflected (as well as on the perception of a painting).

Sorry, but you are talking about what time period?
