Library presentation will include 100 works of art
Artist Marlene Aron will offer a free slide presentation of more than 100 works of art by artists of the Impressionist Movement at 2 p.m. Sunday in the Pleasanton Public Library.
The presentation coincides with the birth of Impressionism and post-Impressionism exhibits taking place at the deYoung and Legion of Honor museums in San Francisco.
Included in the presentation will be the art of Monet, Renoir, Degas, Cezanne, Cassatt, Toulouse-Lautrec, Van Gogh and others, a part of the Bay Area celebration of the work of artists who forever changed the way art is viewed, said senior librarian Penny Johnson.
