 This exhibition delves into the extraordinary trajectory of Modernism in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The Impressionists found a new method of painting traditional subjects, the Pointillists explored colour theory and the Cubists redefined the concept of form. This was an remarkable period for art in which change was embraced and the long accepted canon challenged with an inquisitive spirit.
