Symposium | A Draftsman of the First Order: Renoir’s Drawing Practice
Free with museum admission
Auguste Renoir was a consummate Impressionist painter, but drawing also played a significant if less widely recognized role in his work. This symposium will bring together experts on the artist and his works on paper, including exhibition co-curators, scholars, and conservators. Their discussions will explore the centrality of drawing to Renoir’s practice, examine some of his major projects, and reveal the details of his working methods.
This program will take place in Gilder Lehrman Hall on the Ground Floor. Doors to the Hall will open 30 minutes before the symposium begins.
