Due to the enthusiastic response to the exhibition IMPRESSIONISM, FASHION AND MODERNITY, the Art Institute has added an additional week of viewing to accommodate demand. IMPRESSIONISM, FASHION AND MODERNITY will now run through Sunday, September 29, 2013. The Art Institute exhibition—which the Chicago Tribune called 'a sophisticated and exquisite display of Impressionist masterpieces . . . as insightful as it is pleasurable' and the Chicago Sun-Timeslabeled 'the biggest and most important Impressionist presentation to be on display there in nearly two decades'—has won critical praise and attracted large crowds throughout its world tour.
acclaimed exhibition Impressionism, Fashion, and Modernity, which opened in Paris in October 2012, lands at the Art Institute this summer as the final stop on its world tour. Organized by the Art Institute of Chicago, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, and the Musée d'Orsay, Paris, the exhibition broke attendance records in Paris and has been lauded by international and national critics alike. Roberta Smith of the New York Times called the New York presentation a “thrilling, erudite show” with “visual fireworks, historical clarity, and pitch-perfect contextualizing.” Vogue proclaimed the show “breathtaking” for its portrayal of “art's passionate love affair with fashion in the boulevards and salons of late 19th-century France.” And now audiences in Chicago will be able to spend the summer with the first exhibition to explore the role of fashion in the revolutionary Impressionist movement.
