From September 2008 to January 2009, the Tate Modern is featuring the work of Francis Bacon:
Quote:

Irish-born artist Bacon, widely regarded as one of the greatest painters of the 20th century, is known for his giant canvasses spilling out nightmarish visions and contorted bodies in their raw and fleshy glory. The Tate retrospective, arranged broadly chronologically, brings together approximately 70 of the most important paintings from the artist's turbulent life, including his portraits of Pope Innocent X and celebrated triptychs such as Three Studies for a Crucifixion. The exhibition will travel to the Prado in Madrid and the Metropolitan Museum in New York next year.

BAcon certainly explored all the aspects of the color red. I quickly tire of his work, as I do with work by Hockney. One or two pieces a year is my limit.

Theres a new chronological show of Cezanne at the Philly museum. I can walk and gawk at his work and be drawn in by each visit.

Spectacular Monet Exhibition

The Von-Der-Heydt Museum in Wuppertal, Germany, is preparing an exhibition on the works of French impressionist Claude Monet. Up to 100 paintings will be on display with most coming from the Musée Marmottan in Paris. Monet (1840 - 1926) is one of the co-founders of impressionism. Many of his masterpieces deal with garden in Giverny. The exhibition runs from Oct. 11, 2009 - Feb. 28, 2010.

I deeply regret missing out on this Francis Bacon exhibition when it moved from the Tate and landed in the Metropolitan Museum of New York.
[sigh]
