For the first time brought together in an exhibition in Catania almost all the artists of Impressionism

The exhibition spaces of Palazzo Platamone in Catania are hosting the exhibition Paths and Secrets ofImpressionism, curated by Vincenzo Sanfo and Fiorella Minervino, until April 21, 2019.

Thanks to the project by Sicilia Musei in collaboration with Dietro le Quinte and Diffusione Italia International Group, under the patronage of the City of Catania and with the collaboration of the Musée d’Agen, visitors will be able to admire for the first time in Italy the masterpieces of almost all the artists who participated in the eight official Impressionism exhibitions.

The exhibition allows visitors to discover, through works from private collections, all the research that these artists carried out in an era of great upheaval, from oil painting to pastel, from ceramics to sculpture, from drawing to graphics. The project for the city of Catania starts from the works of Ingres, Delacroix, Courbet, Corot, and Millet, who from realism to the bucolic expressions of the Barbizon school dictated the canons of an aesthetic taste that found in painting “en plein air” its proper dimension to arrive finally at the Impressionist revolution.
