    Passport to Paris presents a survey of French printmaking across a century of artistic evolution and revolution. While its is common to view the nineteenth century as the golden era of French painting, the variety and quality of contemporary prints often rivaled the paintings of that period. There will be 46 works by artists such as Mary Cassatt, Paul Cézanne, Eugéne Delacroix, Paul Gauguin, Edouard Manet, Pierre August Renior, August Rodin and Henri Toulouse-Lautrec. Passport to Paris highlights the technical, stylistic, and thematic evolutions that redefined artistic sentiment and intent during one of the most productive artistic periods in the history of western art.

    • ArtsMemphis logo

      Known around the world for its blues and rock and roll, Memphis has a recognizable special vibe. ArtsMemphis exists to nurture this unique character and to magnify the city’s creative voice. We are a 45-year-old arts funding organization (the sixth largest in the United States), which provides annual operating and project support to 23 arts groups and administers some 150 additional grants on a year to year basis. The ArtsMemphis tagline is “your support matters” and indeed it does. As major fundraisers, grant-makers and arts promoters in the city, ArtsMemphis contributed more than $4 million to the Memphis arts community in 2007, and it is a fact that 95 cents of every dollar raised in our annual campaign is directed to our funded organizations. ArtsMemphis builds partnerships among artists, arts groups, donors, educators and culture lovers throughout the city and region. Recognizing that a lively arts scene has a major economic impact and is essential to the quality of life in Memphis, ArtsMemphis is encouraging the entire community to interact with the arts like never before. The current enhanced website with its expanded calendar of events has been introduced with that goal in mind.
