Prendergast in Italy traces the footsteps of Maurice Prendergast as he painted his way through Italy in 1898-1899 and through Venice again in 1911. Approximately seventy watercolors, oils, and monotypes by Maurice Prendergast will be on view, along with related letters, prints, photographs, films, guidebooks, and sketchbooks to situate the work within the new visual culture that Americans had embraced by 1900.
Prendergast in Italy will be accompanied by a major book on Prendergast’s Italian works. The exhibition travels to the Peggy Guggenheim Collection, Venice (October 9, 2009-January 3, 2010) and to the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston (February 14-May 9, 2010.) |
