Artists’ Models: Diana Seave Greenwald and Susan Waller in conversation

  • Region: All Regions
  • Type: Talk
  • Cost: Free

The relationships between artists and models are notoriously complex. They are structured by shifting power dynamics. They encompass the vulnerabilities of exposure and the trials of physical exertion. They test personal and professional ties. Research into these dynamics and the lives of models has moved us far away from the concept of the ethereal muse effortlessly inspiring an artist to celestial heights. 

The Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum’s upcoming exhibition ‘Manet: A Model Family’ (10 October 2024 – 20 January 2025) promises to expand our understanding of these relationships by focusing on Édouard Manet’s use of non-professional models from his family and inner circle. Please join the Impressionist Futures Group as Allison Deutsch chairs an online conversation between Diana Seaver Greenwald, the exhibition’s curator, and Susan Waller, specialist in the artist/model transaction.

This webinar is free and open to all, but registration is required. Please visit https://www.impressionistfutures.com/future-events/artists-models to register.
