Another great exhibition currently at the NSW Art Gallery in Sydney is 'Monet and the Impressionists'. The Art Gallery of New South Wales is the only Australian venue for this superb exhibition from the Museum of Fine Arts Boston, which has one of the world's finest and most famous collections of impressionist paintings.
29 of the finest paintings by the master of impressionism, Claude Monet, will be accompanied by superlative paintings by his contemporaries including Cézanne, Manet, Degas, Pissarro, Renoir and Sisley.
This selection will highlight the breadth of Monet's interests, his influences and the influence he exerted on his contemporaries, from his beginnings in the 1860s until the summit of his fame in the 1900s.
For me the most interesting thing about Monet is to see his work 'life'. It's like going to a concert to see your favorite musicians play their repertoire. It's fantastic to see the techniques and the strokes he used to produce those fantastic paintings we all know from photographs. Definitely worth to see.
