6 Things Students Need to Know… • 1. You don’t need to whisper in the museum. In fact, we want you to ask questions, have conversations, and give your opinion.
2. Some of our paintings and sculptures are very old and all of them are fragile. It is important to keep a respectful and safe distance from the artwork (at least 1 foot away). Help remind each other and your chaperones not to touch the artwork.
3. You can take photographs while at the Museum, but we ask that you do not do so while on a tour. When you take photos, please do not use the flash (bright light can hurt the art) and check with a gallery associate to make sure that the Museum owns the work of art (these are the only works of art that may be photographed)..
4. Exploring the museum is more fun with friends. Stay with your group so you have someone to talk to about the art. Wear your name tag.
5. Leave your backpacks at school or on the bus. You will need only a pen or pencil, camera phone . . . and your brain!
6. Try to slow down in the Museum. You can see the art better if you walk rather than run.
Exposition Toulouse-Lautrec • This extraordinary exhibition highlights the wide spectrum of exciting work created by avant-garde artists in Paris around the turn of the twentieth century. Through dreamy Symbolist landscape paintings, edgy Parisian street scenes, intimate domestic tableaus, bawdy cabaret sketches, figure studies, portraits and still life compositions, Toulouse-Lautrec and La Vie Moderne: Paris 1880 – 1910 investigates a generation of artists continuing the battle against French Academic standards fought by the Impressionists and the Barbizon painters before them.
Exposition Toulouse-Lautrec • A special focus is the intoxicating gathering of artists, writers, performers, and musicians in Montmartre, where everyone from Toulouse-Lautrec, whose style and subjects epitomize the times, to Sarah Bernhardt and Paul Verlaine worked amid the swirl of cafe-concerts, circuses, and theatres. The show is alive with a variety of both images and media.
