EXHIBITIONS
 Every
exhibition presented at the Museum sets out to explore, often for
the first time, some important feature of academic art and the institutions
that nourished it in 19th- and early 20th-century Europe. Utilizing
loans from distinguished international collections, both private
and public, previous exhibitions here have examined—among other topics—the training
of artists; the world of the Salon with its competitions and juries;
the 19th-century fascination with the Orient, reciprocated from
Cairo to Paris; the influence of photography, travel, and archeological
discoveries of the classical past; and the reproduction of artworks
for an international market.
The Dahesh Museum of Art complements special exhibitions
with selections from its permanent collection, including familiar
favorites and recent acquisitions.
