Description
Joan
Mitchell spent many years in her garden studio in Vétheuil, France,
layering color across canvases to create vibrant, evocative works of
art. She
was one of the most influential and accomplished Abstract Expressionist
painters, but received comparably little recognition during her life,
and to many she remains an enigma.
The Joan Mitchell exhibition of musée des Impressionnismes
Giverny is organized with the partnership of die
Kunsthalle Emden and il Palazzo Magnani Reggio
Emilia.
Over thirty
monumental canvases from France and the United States are
displayed.
This
exhibition gives a vibrant and complete overview of Joan Mitchell's art
from 1950 to 1992.
I went to see the exhibition last week and highly recommend it.
Giverny is a beautiful town and you can easily tie a trip to
this exhibition in with a visit to Monet's Gardens which are stiil
beautiful to see in October.
