Chinese artists & Paris in the early 20th century [SECOND SESSION]

-
The owner of Galerie Dumonteil has kindly agreed to let us a host a repeat session of the April Art Focus. Details are as follows:The early 20th century was a time of artistic fervor, especially in Paris. It was a pivotal historic epoch in art history that epitomized an intense outgrowth of radical exploration as well as a return to conservative conventions in the aftermath of the First World War. During this dichotomous period of social uncertainty and optimism, Chinese artists made their way to Paris attempting to “learn from the West.” Who were the artists, what were they able to access during their time abroad and what effects were they able to engender in transforming Chinese art upon their return to their native country?Due to the special health situation during this time of COVID-19, the gallery can only accommodate a limited number. Therefore, this session of Art Focus will be organized as an intimate art salon.This event is limited to 11 RAS members on a first come, first signup basis. (All attendees must present green health QR code.)
