Lancaster, PA.- The Demuth Museum is pleased to present “Demuth in the City of Lights”, on view at the museum until August 28th. This exhibition brings together many of Charles Demuth’s works from his time in Paris in the early twentieth century. Demuth (1883-1935) soaked up all Paris had to offer by visiting galleries, attending live performances, discussing ideas with fellow artists including Marsden Hartley and Marcel Duchamp, and drinking up the night-life. Upon returning home to Lancaster, he poured out his art work. Like other foreigners in Paris, Demuth did seek out art instruction and this exhibit will feature examples of Demuth’s figure drawings of live models from his classes at the Academie Colarossi and the Academie Julien. This exhibition will also highlight Demuth’s pictures of the people and places he saw during his time in France, including portraits of such notables as Igor Stravinsky and Alice B. Toklas, landscapes such as a lively beach scene from the French coastal town of Étretat; and some vibrant watercolors from the many stage performances Demuth attended while in Paris. The exhibit features works by Demuth drawn from the Demuth Museum’s permanent collection as well as a dozen rarely exhibited pictures from private collections.
