Art Talk: Mary Cassatt - An American in Paris

Despite her status as a foreigner and as an unmarried woman, Mary Cassatt was at the heart of the French Impressionist movement and developed a following on both sides of the Atlantic.

She cultivated relationships with America’s private collectors, curators and museum trustees encouraging them to collect Impressionist and Post-Impressionist art. Those collections now form the nucleus of some of this country’s most eminent cultural institutions, including the Metropolitan Museum, the Art Institute of Chicago and the Museum of Fine Arts.

Join art expert Maria D’Amario while she explores the life and work of this talented painter who successfully challenged the conventional ideas of the male-dominated Parisian art world.

This presentation will be followed by a Q&A and a glass of wine.

In person event in English.
