Art is change, an artist is an individual who manages to intercept the changes in society, to evolve together and to make new scientific discoveries, social revolutions, new artistic currents their own.
Who knows if the Impressionists thought their paintings would be combined with sounds, moving images, perfumes, three-dimensional effects when they first approached the brushes to the canvas.
In 1872 it was Impression, sunrise by Claude Monet and from there a new world and a new way of making art was born, the artist imposes the impressions on the canvas, transforms the light and brings it back to life and the viewer is referred the power of those emotions. The beauty of art is that it reaches everyone, and there is no definition of right and wrong that holds. Its power lies in the fact that it makes everyone feel the emotions of a moment and let themselves be overwhelmed. In 1863 it was Breakfast on the grass by Edouard Manet and in 1876 Bal au moulin de la Galette by Pierre-Auguste Renoir.
In 2018 at Palazzo degli Esami in Rome the original paintings are not there, but until 5 December a multimedia exhibition has been set up by Giancarlo Bonomo that celebrates the great masters of impression in "French Impressionists - from Monet to Cézanne". The exhibition is an unprecedented and virtual re-proposition of Impressionist masterpieces such as Claude Monet's Water Lily Pond from 1899, Eduard Manet's Bar delle Folies-Bergère from 1891, Pierre-Auguste Renoir's Rowing Lunch, Camille Pizarro's 1873 self-portrait There will also be the Dancers at the Bar by Edgar Degas from 1888.
The spectator will be projected into XNUMXth century Paris and not only in its places, but in its streets, its perfumes, its sounds, with the help of the music of Offenbach, Tchaikovsky, Claude Debussy, Maurice Ravel.
Participating in the exhibition will be like living in an impressionist film, eliminating any distance between the work of art and the viewer.
