Moving Pictures: American Art and Early Film, 1880-1910 April 30, 2007

This exhibition will present American realist painting from the late 19th and early 20th centuries side-by-side with the earliest experiments in film. Approximately 100 works, including nearly 60 short films will provide a new context for looking at the artists' choice and presentation of subject matter. For the first time, film will be fully integrated into the history of American art.
