This screening is presented as part of Country Arts SA’s Arts on Screen program.

The works of Cezanne, Monet, Degas fetch tens of millions of dollars. But just who were they really? Why and how did they paint? What lies behind their enduring appeal?

To help answer these questions, The Impressionists has secured unique access to a major new exhibition focusing on the 19th century Parisian art collector Paul Durand-Ruel, the outspoken champion of Impressionism. This eagerly anticipated exhibition is perhaps the most comprehensive ever held about the Impressionists. This energetic and revealing film will tell his remarkable story along with that of the Impressionists themselves.

Filmed exclusively for cinema at some of the world’s greatest exhibitions, Exhibition on Screen is a ground breaking series which allows art lovers worldwide to enjoy, marvel and
delight at the works of some of history’s exceptional painters on the big screen, in stunning high definition.
