Caillebotte Matters

Dr. George T.M. Shackelford, Deputy Director of the Kimbell Art Museum, Fort Worth, and co-curator of the exhibition Gustave Caillebotte: The Painter's Eye, will discuss the critical issues raised by Caillebotte's innovative paintings—those issues that make understanding him and looking closely at his work essential to the appreciation of Impressionism. Drawing from this recent retrospective of the artist's work and the DMA's own Yellow Roses in a Vase, Shackelford will address Caillebotte's impact on the Impressionist movement and his legacy in the history of art.
