Monet's Ecology
By KMEC BooksDescription
Known almost as much for his gardens as for his paintings, the Impressionist Claude Monet held a fascination with nature that only deepened as his career progressed. 'Monet’s Ecology' is the first exhibition to investigate the artist’s relationship to ecology and the environment. Illustrated with a dazzling array of landscapes, from his early coastal views of Le Havre to his “impressions” of Westminster Bridge and Gare Saint-Lazare, his Rouen Cathedral series and finally 'Water Lilies'.
Each curatorial essay in the catalogue examines a different aspect of Monet’s “ecologies” – from the industrial biomes of London and Paris to the pastoralism of middle-class leisure and contemporary protests against climate change that directly invoke Monet’s Giverny scenes – arguing that Monet’s radical engagement with the natural world positioned him at the forefront of ecological awareness.
