  2. “The Girl in the Garden”, by Mary Cassatt, adapted to modern times.

    She scrolls through X, a feed full of child abuse and hate speech, while the bourgeoisie politely looks away.

  3. "Mother and Child (Baby Getting Up from His Nap)," Mary Cassatt, c. 1899

    Y'all know Cassatt by now, the great American female Impressionist. She's most famous for her paintings of mothers and children, such as we see here.

    The child is apparently a boy named Jules, who modeled for Cassatt many times. The identity of the mother is unknown. Cassatt was known for capturing the concepts of maternal affection and duty; here we have a well-dressed mother bathing her child and obviously engrossed in her task.

  4. In 1877, #MaryCassatt became one of only three women, and the only American, ever to join the French Impressionists 💪

    "In the Loge" (1878) was the first of Cassatt’s Impressionist paintings to be displayed in the United States.

  5. "Young Thomas and His Mother," Mary Cassatt, 1893.

    Pennsylvania-born Cassatt (1844-1926) should be familiar to us; I've featured her before and she's a very popular painter.

    In the 1880s, Cassatt became focused on the theme of mothers and children, and produced many, now-familiar works in that genre. Young Thomas and his mother here were repeat models.

    These paintings were generally tightly focused, and some felt that indicated a sort of cloistered life; I feel it was a reflection of the intimacy of the relationship between mother and child. Cassatt was not cloistered! She guided many wealthy American travelers to purchase works by her colleagues; it's said now that she's indirectly responsible for many prominent American museum collections.

  6. I have never before had one of the 10 most read articles at Broadstreetreview, where I do arts reporting, but this Year I had two! Woohoo! When I heard I was on the list, I figured, correctly, that it was this one, because who doesn't love MaryCassatt? And curator Jennifer Thompson is a delight to chat with.

  10. "Woman Bathing," Mary Cassatt, 1890-91.

    Happy birthday to Mary Cassatt, born 180 years ago today!

    The American-born Cassatt lives most of her adult life in France, where she became one of the top Impressionists. Her focus was the everyday lives of women, and although Cassatt never married or had children, she was noted for her explorations of the bonds between mother and child.

    Cassatt, like most Impressionists, was fascinated by Japanese prints, and here the influence of Japanese art is clear. The use of color, and the composition of the scene, reflect Japanese influence.

    And...there is something unmistakably womanly about this. Too many male artists would have displayed the woman's face and breasts for the viewer's delectation. But here, a woman's eye gives us an intimate, serene scene of a woman's everyday life, without leering or exposing.

    Keep cool, folks!

  11. "Lilacs in a Window," Mary Cassatt, c. 1880-83.

    Everyone knows Cassatt, and if you don't, you should. This is a bit unusual for her; most of her work was with figures and portraits, and she almost never did still lifes or florals...and yet, here we are.

    It's lilac season where I am...driving around, I can see them blooming by the roadside. We're also getting peonies, which for me were always an indication of summer being just around the corner....

    From the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York.

    Mary Cassatt: The Woman Who Wasn’t Allowed to Draw

    Mary Cassatt, an American artist who lived in France, was a key member of the Impressionist movement. She was known for her paintings of mothers and children, and for her use of pastels. Cassatt's work challenged traditional views of femininity and domesticity.

    On International Women’s Day 2024, it’s inspiring to see the progress being made in artistic endeavors, with more women making their mark in today’s art market. This momentum is essential for the continued diversification and enrichment of the creative landscape, and it’s a testament to the talent and determination of women artists around the world. As we celebrate this occasion, let’s continue to support and uplift the voices and contributions of women in the arts.

    Here’s to a future where their impact and influence only continue to grow.

    International Women’s Day is a time to celebrate artistic pursuits.

    Sharing our creativity with the world is an enriching experience that allows us to embrace our own unique artistic voice. I am energized and draw inspiration from diverse sources, which helps me in developing my creative voice. I have learned that being receptive to new ideas and techniques has led to unexpected creative breakthroughs. I believe that within us all, there is a vibrant artistic spirit that has a deep desire to create. We are all artists, for art takes on many forms and many definitions.

    Engaging with fellow artists and participating in creative communities facilitates the exchange of ideas, feedback, and support. Prioritizing authenticity when sharing our creativity allows us to resonate with others, regardless of the medium used.

    Embracing the journey of creativity and sharing it with the world is as valuable as the destination. It allows us to celebrate the unique contribution we bring to the creative landscape.

    ChasingART has been my personal journey to learn how art enables communication and provides the opportunity to appreciate and understand different cultures, histories, and perspectives from around the world.

    Art has the power to reveal the essence of humanity, capturing the depths of our emotions, thoughts, and experiences. We explore our own identities and connect with others on a profound level. Art enables us to express our deepest desires, fears, and joys, transcending language barriers and cultural boundaries. It serves as a mirror, reflecting the complexity and beauty of the human condition. In its ability to evoke empathy, provoke introspection, and inspire change, art truly shows us what it means to be human.

  14. 7 Künstlerinnen, die man kennen sollte (28.02.2024)

    von #SilkeWünsch | #TanyaOtt | #JohnSilk

    Jeder kennt Rembrandt oder van Gogh, aber warum sind begnadete #Künstlerinnen wie #GiovannaGarzoni oder #MaryCassatt in Vergessenheit geraten? Frauen wurden in der Kunstwelt oft übergangen. Das soll sich jetzt ändern.

  15. Paintings by Mary Cassatt (1844-1926). I just love how she captures the awkwardness of parenting a toddler. It’s so timeless and lovely.

  16. I loved the closeness of “Family Group Reading” by Mary Cassatt. It reminded me of so many happy memories involving my parents reading to us or telling us stories. #MaryCassatt #Art

  18. I just arrived home from visiting the Mary Cassatt and Helen McNicoll exhibition at the Art Gallery of Ontario. It was lovely.

    As they allowed photography, I’ll share a few favourite paintings from that exhibit tomorrow.

    If you live near Toronto or have some other future chance to see their work, I highly recommend checking it out.

    Which painters or artists do you all like?

  19. "The Coiffure," Mary Cassatt, 1890-91

    One of a series of prints by Cassatt showing the influence of Ukiyo-e prints from Japan, especially by Utamaro. Instead of Japanese courtesans, though, Cassatt featured normal women doing everyday tasks.

    From the National Gallery of Canada, Ottawa.
