John House

    19. duben 1945 – 7. únor 2012

    John House byl předním historikem impresionismu. Ve svých spisech odhalil impresionisty jako bystré pozorovatele společenských změn, nikoli jako povrchní či lichotivé umělce. Ukázal, že impresionismus nebyl uzavřeným hnutím, ale chytrým vyjednáváním uměleckých konvencí a institucí. Hrál klíčovou roli v transformaci akademického studia tohoto období a zároveň předsedal rozvoji jeho veřejného ocenění prostřednictvím výstav, které kurátoroval.

      John House examines the many facets of the work and what it reveals about Renoir as a man and artist. He asks, "What did it mean to paint a picture like La Promenade in France in 1870, in the final months of Napoleon III's Second Empire?" The reader is invited to look at the canvas - and Impressionism - as a rejection of the idealist world of academic art and as a challenge to contemporary social norms.
