Critics' Voices
ART
THE ART OF PAOLO VERONESE: 1528-1588, National Gallery of Art,
Washington. To see Veronese's glowingly colored, exquisitely
textured works is to glimpse the splendor of Venice's Golden Age.
Through Feb. 20.
HENRI CARTIER-BRESSON: THE EARLY WORK, 1929-1934, the Museum of Fine
Arts, Houston. Some 75 prints from the period when Cartier-Bresson
was creating one of the most original and influential styles in the
history of photography. Through Feb. 26.
January 16, 1989
CEZANNE: THE EARLY YEARS, 1859-1872, National Gallery of Art,
Washington. The least-known period of one of the best-known
painters: his restless 20s and early 30s, when he disciplined his
huge talent. Through April 30.
February 6, 1989
GOYA AND THE SPIRIT OF ENLIGHTENMENT, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.
This excellent show rescues the Spanish master from the Romantic
shadows of the Goyaesque and presents him as a man immersed in the
liberal currents of his time. Through March 26.
MASTERPIECES OF IMPRESSIONISM AND POST-IMPRESSIONISM: THE ANNENBERG
COLLECTION, Philadelphia Museum of Art. Fifty prime paintings by
artists from Van Gogh and Cezanne through Gauguin and Braque,
acquired over the past four decades by publisher Walter Annenberg and
his wife. Through Sept. 17.
AMERICAN PAINTINGS FROM THE MANOOGIAN COLLECTION, National Gallery of
Art, Washington. Never publicly exhibited before, this notable
collection of 19th century works ranges from Hudson River landscapes
to frontier genre scenes, from Sargent to Raphaelle Peale. June 4
through Sept. 4.
June 5, 1989
HELEN FRANKENTHALER: A PAINTINGS RETROSPECTIVE, Museum of Modern
Art, New York City. In the 1950s, Frankenthaler's lyrical washes of
color had a decisive influence on abstract expressionism; today she
ranks as America's best-known living woman artist. These 40 canvases
from four decades show why. Through Aug. 20.
July 17, 1989
EDWARD HOOPER, Whitney Museum of American Art, New York City. A
major realist painter, Hopper (1882-1967) is also an enduring popular
chronicler of NEw England lighthouses, late-night cafes and other
vignettes of the American scene. The Whitney's collection of his
work is unmatched, as this sampling confirms. Through Nov. 5.
July 31, 1989
ON THE ART OF FIXING A SHADOW: 150 YEARS OF PHOTOGRAPHY, National
Gallery, Washington. The history of photography as art, assembled
from public and private collections around the world. More than 400
original pictures representing 200 photographers. Among them: Louis
Daguerre, Alfred Stieglitz, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Walker Evans and
Dorothea Lange. Through July 30.
July 31, 1989
VELAZQUEZ, Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York City. If you want to
know what realist painting is or can be, look at Velazquez. Artists
have said so for 300 years. Here, in 38 choice canvases, is the
reason why. Through Jan. 7.
October 23, 1989
CANALETTO, Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York City. In Canaletto
one sees Venice, and vice versa, since the artist's luminous, teeming
canvases have for two centuries defined the city's great vistas and
waterways in the public imagination. Through Jan. 21.
