Exhibition on Screen: The Artist’s Garden - American Impressionism
The American impressionist movement, while inspired by the work of French artists like Renoir and Monet, developed its own style during a forty-year span that says as much about the United States as it does about its artistic prowess. It's about those who value gardening and want to keep natural spaces intact in an increasingly urbanized country. This stunning film is a visual treat, as it visits studios, gardens, and landmarks in the United States, the United Kingdom, and France. The Artist's Garden: American Impressionism is based on the traveling exhibition of the same name that toured from the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts to the Florence Griswold Museum in Old Lyme, Connecticut.
