The Chrysler Museum of Art is bringing back the historic French Salon tradition! The Farm to Table Salon Series provides an intimate and unique opportunity to probe beyond the surface of the canvas into the complex themes associated with the Farm to Table: Art, Food, and Identity in the Age of Impressionism exhibition. The artwork presents more than just French art and cuisine; it touches upon aesthetics, urban versus rural life, the relationship between food, gender, and identity, and so much more. Each salon will take place in the exhibition gallery to let the art inspire the discussion.
Journey to France through the paintbrushes of American artists during the Age of Impressionism. Chrysler curator Corey Piper will explore the influence of French culture and aesthetics on American artists in France. Painters like Childe Hassam, John Singer Sargent, Mary Fairchild MacMonnies, Winslow Homer, and Henry Ossawa Tanner brought home more than a love for French cuisine but an expanded perspective on representing the world in new ways.
