exhibit: 'Drawing in Europe 1770-1820'
The
Getty Center (1200 Getty Center Drive; LA)
info: 310-440-7300; museuminfo@getty.edu
detail: This
exhibition presents French, English, and Spanish drawings reflecting the
social, political, and intellectual upheavals of the late 18th century,
when artists including Jacques-Louis David, his students, and his contemporaries
sought to make a modern art out of a distant past. Classical subject matter,
which enjoyed a vogue due to archaeological discoveries at Pompeii and
Herculaneum, was interpreted in a variety of ways, from the spare and
sculptural manner of Neoclassicism to the energetic drama of the Romantic
Movement. A Revolutionary Age complements the Premiere Presentation exhibition
Jacques-Louis David: Empire to Exile, and includes drawings from the Museum's
collection by David, Jean-Baptiste Greuze, William Blake, and Francisco
José de Goya y Lucientes. Through May 1st, 2005.
