A Dazzling Showcase of Impressionist Masterpieces

Art lovers in Hong Kong are in for a treat! The highly acclaimed exhibition, "The Hong Kong Jockey Club Series: Cézanne and Renoir Looking at the World - Masterpieces from the Musée de l'Orangerie and the Musée d'Orsay," is soaring in popularity, attracting over 130,000 visitors since its grand opening on January 17. To accommodate the overwhelming demand, the exhibition has been extended until May 14.

Explore the Ascendancy of Impressionism

This monumental exhibit is the first of its kind in Hong Kong, celebrating the unrivaled artistry of two icons of Impressionism: Paul Cézanne and Pierre-Auguste Renoir. The exhibition showcases a remarkable collection of 52 masterpieces, with 51 making their Hong Kong debut, including exquisite still lifes, enchanting landscapes, expressive portraits, and captivating nudes.

Masterpieces That Leave You Breathless

Featuring standout works like Cézanne's "Apples and Biscuits," "Still Life with Soup Tureen," and "Landscape with Red Roof (The Pine at l'Estaque)," alongside Renoir's beloved pieces such as "Claude Renoir in Clown Costume" and "Nude in a Landscape," the exhibition genuinely embodies the essence of Impressionism. Additionally, the inclusion of two priceless Picasso masterpieces illustrates the lasting influence of these two masters on future generations.

An Immersive Experience Awaits!

Venturing beyond mere art viewing, the Hong Kong Museum of Art has crafted a unique educational corner that mimics a vintage French train platform, offering visitors a whimsical time-travel experience into the lives of Cézanne and Renoir. Innovative features such as simulated conversations between the two legends and interactive footprint maps create an engaging atmosphere.

Local Artists Draw Inspiration

In an exciting twist, local artists Trevor Yeung and Lai Kwan-ting have taken inspiration from the Impressionist masters to create their own contemporary pieces. Yeung's installation, "Garden Cruising: Bathers and Watchers," explores the gaze associated with nudity in Cézanne's works, while Lai's "Everyday Whispers" reinterprets traditional styles with a modern flair.
