Art Lecture: The Avant-Garde at the Turn of the 20th Century

Marsha Holm, a popular docent for the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco, gives this illustrated art lecture.

Lecture description: Avant-garde art is of the moment. Looking at the works of Matisse, Cézanne, Van Gogh, and Picasso, we will see what makes art progressive and not just new -- art that has a long-term impact, art upon which future artists will act and react.
