‘Paris After 1900’ opened at the San Diego Museum of Art on October 17, 2026, and is listed as ongoing.
The presentation is located in Gallery 19 on the museum’s second floor.
It begins with Impressionism’s radical break from tradition in the 1870s and 1880s, which gave rise to the first Modernist movements in France.
The artists represented range from Post-Impressionism—a term coined in 1910—to the Pointillist, Fauve, and Nabis movements.
Ultimately, each artist followed an independent path of Modernism, challenging established conventions in the first decades of the twentieth century.
