This is a past event
Leading American and European scholars share a wide range of new critical perspectives on Manet’s life and work. This symposium complements and provides a broader context for the exhibition Manet and Modern Beauty, which concentrates on the last years of Édouard Manet’s career and explores in particular his heightened attention in this period to fashionable femininity in works like the Getty Museum’s Jeanne (Spring).
