About

The exhibition Gustave Caillebotte: Painting Men considers the French painter’s distinctive interest in male subjects that distinguishes his work from his Impressionist peers. In this conversation, exhibition co-curators Scott Allan, Gloria Groom, and Paul Perrin provide a behind-the-scenes look into the genesis, research, and development of the exhibition (which opened in Paris in 2024) along with its acclaimed catalogue.

The exhibition will be open for viewing until 6:45pm on the date of the program.
