David A. Brenneman is Chief Curator and Bunzl Family Curator of European Art at the High Museum of Art in Atlanta.
A catalog of the eponymous exhibition that will travel to Atlanta and Houston (2002-03), this is a visual survey on the subject of Paris during the "age of Impressionism." The objects are selected from the Musee d'Orsay in Paris, covering the period from 1848 to 1914-a period that included Impressionism but also a great number of other movements in the fine and decorative arts. The emphasis is French, and the media include architectural drawings, sculpture, photography, and the decorative arts among the more than 100 objects in the exhibition. Among the works pictured are Art Nouveau vases, lamps, and furniture; paintings by Cezanne, Monet, and Manet; photographs of the Eiffel Tower; and sculpture by Rodin. Essays by American and French curators outline themes such as high society, the Eiffel Tower, theaters, modernity, Art Nouveau, and the avant-garde. Both the essays and the object catalog information are brief. This picture book is suitable for general collections.
