Arts Connect Winter 2016 Talk and Tour Series  will first take a look at and introduce the work of Charles-Francois Daubigny, and then travel the following week to the Taft Museum of Art in Cincinnati for a guided tour of  their current exhibition "Daubigny, Monet, Van Gogh: Impressions of a Landscape".  ​This will include a themed lunch in the Taft's Lindner Family Cafe.

Charles Francois Daubigny played a quiet but compelling role in the growth and development of 19th century French landscape painting.  He pioneered many of the techniques used by his colleagues and friends; the Impressionists, working outdoors (en plein aire) to capture light and color as it flickered across the landscape, painting water from the decks of his floating studio boat, producing vivid images, alive with shimmering brush work and unmodulated color.  A friend and colleague of the Impressionists, Daubigny's work illustrates his passion for light and land.

This exhibition includes approximately 42 masterpieces produced through Daubigny's life, supplemented by a selection of about 16 works from Monet and Van Gogh.  A pendant exhibiton of etchings introduces Daubigny's floating studio -a ferry he converted into a live/work space - which allowed him to observe and paint the river, a favorite subject, by day and by night.
