MFAH members are invited to an exclusive lecture about Impressionist and Post-Impressionist Masterpieces from the Pearlman Foundation. Ann Dumas, consulting curator for European art, surveys this exhibition of masterpieces by Cezanne, Degas, Gauguin, Van Gogh, Manet, Modigliani, and many others from the collection of the Henry and Rose Pearlman Foundation. Learn how art by such luminary “artists in motion” highlights the way in which social bonds and friendships fueled much of the creativity in the Impressionist and Post-Impressionist movements.
