The Columbia Museum of Art in Columbia, S.C., is hosting the opening stop of a U.S. tour of Turner to Cezanne: Masterpieces from the Davies Collection: National Museum Wales from March 6 to June 7, 2009.

The collection is exceptionally strong in Impressionist and Post-Impressionist works and includes masterpieces by, among others, Cezanne, Corot, van Gogh, Monet, Daumier, Manet, Millet, Pissarro, Renoir, Turner and Whistler. Turner to Cezanne features 53 stunning works of art, seen together in the United States for the first time. The exhibition will travel to only five venues.

Some highlights of the exhibition are Renoir’s famous La Parisienne, which was included in the first show of Impressionism in 1874, a Monet Water Lilies, and van Gogh’s panoramic Rain–Auvers, painted during the last week of the artist’s life.

Group reservations ($12 pp. for groups of 10 and more) are being taken now. (803-343-2209, www.columbiamuseum.org)
