SUMMARY:Talks | Impressionism &amp\; Modern Life - Art History Reframed wit
 h Dr. Matthew Whyte at Triskel Arts Centre
DESCRIPTION:Art Historian Dr. Matthew Whyte offers a new lecture series\, w
 hich takes the audience on an art-filled journey through the often beautif
 ul\, sometimes scandalous\, and always fascinating moments in the developm
 ent of Western civilisation.\n\nWeek 2: Impressionism &amp\; Modern Life\n
 This lecture explores the development of Impressionism\, the style most co
 mmonly associated with the beautiful paintings of Claude Monet. These pain
 tings and their loose style have become almost universally familiar. What 
 drove these artists to paint like this? What does this new style seek to d
 o? This lecture begins with the artist Édouard Manet\, credited as one of
  the first artists to turn resolutely from the past and paint modern life.
  Following the advice of writer Charles Baudelaire\, Manet resolved to mak
 e his art relevant by painting the present rather than the past. His focus
  on the fast and fleeting nature of French modernity spurred on the Impres
 sionists to develop a new approach to capturing movement and atmosphere\, 
 the effects of modernity that would prove elusive to the new technology of
  photography.\n\n1. Tues 16 September\nThe Pre-Raphaelites &amp\; The Birt
