A sweeping survey of American Impressionism embracing precursor, contemporary and subsequent movements, “In a New Light” features works by more than 75 artists, including Childe Hassam, George Inness, Thomas Moran, John Sloan, Ernest Lawson, Daniel Garber and Guy Carleton Wiggins.
The exhibition provides a thought-provoking historical context for American Impressionism by positioning it between the Hudson River School – whose majestic landscapes influenced, and then gradually gave way to, French Impressionist-inspired works –and the modernist trends later evident in the later pieces.
