    Carol Forman Tabler

    When Berthe Morisot joined the revolutionary Impressionists in their first trailblazing exhibition of 1874, she deliberately opposed the advice of her mentor Édouard Manet, who felt she should continue to exhibit at the Salon, the traditional, juried exhibition. The only woman among the enterprising male artists who participated in this landmark exhibition, she broke down the wall of gender discrimination. This lecture will focus on the reciprocal nature of Morisot’s relationship with Édouard Manet upon whom she had relied for inspiration early in her career while he was relying on her to be his muse and model. The more Morisot’s work gained widespread acclaim in its own right, the more Manet began to emulate her artistically. Their relationship had matured into a pooling of their talents as equals, thereby furthering the course of modern art.

    About the lecturer(s)

    Carol Forman Tabler

    Carol Forman Tabler, noted art historian, holds a PhD from the Institute of Fine Arts at NYU. Her dissertation focused on the French nineteenth-century artist Antoine Vollon, with whom she came into contact while writing the European section of the catalogue for the Heckscher Museum’s collection. Over the years she has organized exhibitions at the museum, served as a trustee, and is currently a member of the Collection Stewardship Committee there. Her scholarship on Vollon has led to conference presentations and publication opportunities in books, journals, and exhibition catalogues, including an e-journal article available to read on the web. In 2005 she wrote the essay for a major solo exhibition on Vollon at the Wildenstein Gallery in New York. In 2015 she donated one of Vollon’s finest drawings to the Frick Collection in New York and was invited to present a live-streamed, archived lecture on the artist, still available to view on the Frick’s website. She considers herself a Francophile, specializing in the French nineteenth century, although her broad university-level teaching experience over the years has inevitably expanded on that concentration.
