Lecture: Impressionists in Normandy

Johannes Ramharter, exhibition organizer of "Light and Landscape. Impressionists in Normandy" at the Augustian museum, talks about the new self-image of landscape painting at the turn of the 18th and 19th centuries. English landscape painters, such as John Constable, emphasized the intrinsic value of nature. On journeys across the Channel to Normandy, they stimulated an artistic development in France that ultimately paved the way for Impressionism - and thus a completely new understanding of landscape, light and color. Participation costs 10 euros, reduced rate 8 euros.
