Conversation: Claude Monet—A Life in Letters

A Saturday afternoon talk at the Art Institute’s Rubloff Auditorium, timed to the release of *Claude Monet: A Life in Letters*, a new anthology of the painter’s correspondence. Editor Teresa Krasny and curator Gloria Groom walk through the collection’s most revealing passages, drawing out the anxieties, friendships, and daily routines that shaped Monet’s radical approach to light and color. The program runs from 2:00 to 3:00 PM on January 30; it’s free with museum admission but requires registration, and closed captioning will be available.
