PARIS.- Musée d'Orsay presents Manet, the Man who invented Modernity, on view from April 5 through July 3, 2011. There has been no exhibition exclusively devoted to Manet in France since 1983, where Françoise Cachin and Charles S. Moffett produced a memorable retrospective. In the ensuing twenty-five years, however, there has been much valuable research and fruitful reflection. A rejection of formalism and a return to history, personal as well as collective, characterise the best of this work, whether documenting Manet's life story or analysing his work, its exhibitions and perceptions.

Reconsidering Bouguereau: An Artistic Revolution at Hirschl & Adler Gallery in New YorkHenri Gervex, (1852-1929), Young Woman with a Fan, 1888. Pastel, 45 1/8 x 31 1/4. NEW YORK, N.Y.- Hirschl & Adler Gallery presents Bouguereau & His Milieu, on view until April 30th, 2011. In the 1950s, the art establishment had a rather narrow view of art and art history. When abstract art was at its peak, Hudson River School paintings by Frederick Church and Albert Bierstadt were considered too realistic, too tightly painted and photographic and were often deacessioned by museums and largely ignored by collectors. Similarly, William Bouguereau was customarily derided in art-history lectures. Then along came an artistic revolution; starting with Pop Art and Andy Warhol—who owned a painting by Bouguereau—the canons of art started to broaden. In 1984 there was a large ground-breaking multinational Bouguereau exhibition, and recently the Virginia Museum of Art and the Musée d'Orsay
