Features: "From Monet to Picasso Exhibition" is divided into five parts. The first part introduces the works of French Impressionist masters such as Monet, Renoir, Degas, Pissarro, Manet, and Morisot, showcasing how a group of young French painters, influenced by the French Barbizon School and the Realist painter Courbet in the mid-19th century, broke away from academic traditions and directly immersed themselves in nature and life, creating a new visual language to explore and reflect nature and reality. The second part features Post-Impressionist representatives such as the renowned Cézanne, Gauguin, Van Gogh, Redon, Bonnard, Vial, and Denison. The third part primarily displays the works of Auguste Rodin, one of the most important sculptors of the late 19th century in France. The fourth part showcases the works of Cubist masters Picasso and Braque, Fauvist master Matisse, abstract color master Kupka, Surrealist masters Magritte and Ernst. The fifth part presents works primarily from Nordic and British modernist art, including the important German Expressionist painters Munch and Rothko, the Dutch pure abstract painter Mondrian, as well as the British abstract master Nicholson and sculptor Moore.
