Now through January 6, 2025, view two shows of art exclusively from the Horvitz Collection. The exhibitions are taking place at the Art Institute of Chicago.
Exhibition 1:
Revolution to Restoration: French Drawings from the Horvitz Collection
Complementary to the Reform to Restoration painting exhibition (discussed below), this exhibition features a selection of approximately 90 neoclassical drawings from 1770-1830, the particularly politically and socially unstable time in France between the French Revolution through the Restoration of the Bourbon Dynasty.
Exhibition 2:
Reform to Restoration: French Paintings from Louis XVI to Louis XVIII (1770-1830)
This exhibition complements the French Drawings version, and features a group of neoclassical paintings that showcase how French artists looked to the art, architecture, and literature of ancient Greece and Rome, as well as current events to convey moral and civic values during a period of political and social upheaval in France.
