Visitors wanting to view the National Gallery of Australia’s new blockbuster exhibition Monet: Impression Sunrise can take advantage of a special package at Mercure Canberra that includes accommodation and tickets to the exhibition.
This is the first time that the painting that defined the Impressionist art movement—Claude Monet’s ‘Impression, sunrise’ – has been shown in Australia, and the exhibition will run until 1 September.
Exclusive to the National Gallery, Impression, Sunrise is the highlight of a collection of Monet works from the Musée Marmottan Monet in Paris. The exhibition also features key Impressionist artists—Turner, Boudin, Sisley and Morisot—who inspired some of Monet’s finest works.
From waterlilies to seascapes, city and rural landscapes, the paintings capture the beauty of natural light, colour and fleeting moments, all exhibited in a newly designed gallery space.
The Monet Impression, Sunrise exhibition will be accompanied by a full program of activities including late night events, performances, screenings, and talks. The NGA website is the best source of information for these events: www.nga.gov.au/calendar
