Friends of Marple Library Present Dr. Jim Curtis: A Presentation on Russian Impressionism

The Friends of the Marple Library will present a program on Russian Impressionism on Saturday, October 28 at 2:00 pm. Our guest speaker, Dr. Jim Curtis, will discuss and explain why the international art world is bedazzled by the new wave of Russian artists in Moscow and St Petersburg who are reshaping the very popular style of Impressionism into what is now known as Russian Impressionism. Seen through the eyes of Russian artists the standard perspective on Impressionism is now more beautiful, beguiling and visually intriguing. Dr. Curtis will tell us, during his colorful 50 minute PowerPoint presentation, why and how this Russian movement is worth watching and enjoying. A reception will immediately follow the program so all may meet and discuss the new impressionistic movement with Dr. Curtis. This program is free and open to the public.
