Painters on show in Paris. Petit Palais, Musée des Beaux Arts de la ville de Paris


Giuseppe de Nittis



http://en.parisinfo.com/show-exhibition/1282676/giuseppe-de-nittis
'Giuseppe de Nittis loved the beautiful people, parties, clothes and great landscapes. This exhibition presents the work of this Italian painter, a friend of Caillebotte, Manet and Degas; characterized by certain elegance in the choice of his themes but also in the technique of his painters. He was also one of the first artists to experiment with pastels on a large scale.'


From October 20 2010 to January 16 2011

Material matters.

Thank-you to every one that attended my talk on Tuesday, and for all the questions. It's interesting that although I stood up and talked for sometime in the lecture theatre It often takes me some time and courage to ask questions. If you do want anything clarified please feel free to ask me, either here in the comments section or by email. All feedback is also useful, it was the first time I had used media clips in a presentation. I hope they added some clarity to the talk, what do you think?  I would be delighted to know.I have attempted to give references to all the artists and information covered but again if you can't find the information you need  in 'Painting matters' let me know.
