Gustave Caillebotte: Painting Men

French painter Gustave Caillebotte’s interest in male subjects sharply distinguishes him from his Impressionist peers. Overwhelmingly, he observed and depicted the men in his life—including his brothers, bachelor friends, fellow sportsmen, and the workers and bourgeois of his neighborhood—and did so in bracingly original paintings that often subverted artistic and gender norms. His distinctive vision of modern masculinity is considered here for the first time in a major international loan exhibition.

This exhibition is presented in English and Spanish. Esta exhibición se presenta en inglés y en español.

Our member and Getty Docent, Brian Burchfield, shared a must-watch video from his friend, Ignacio Darnaude. Click here before seeing the exhibit ==> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5vYPjgT0Uc
