Innovative Impressions explores an under-examined aspect of three
impressionists' careers: their groundbreaking prints and the new
techniques they developed through collaboration and
experimentation. In 1879, Mary Cassatt, Edgar Degas, and Camille
Pissarro formed the most active core of a group of artists planning
a periodical to feature their prints. Through this collaborative
effort they challenged each other to develop a new language of
printmaking whose visual and expressive potential went well beyond
the traditional reproductive purpose of the medium. Indeed, the
intimacy of small-scale works on paper at times spurred the artists
to be even more daringly creative than they were in their
paintings. Their interactions and engagement with printmaking
varied over time, culminating in the 1890s, when each developed
distinctive methods of introducing color into their work. For much
of their careers this unlikely trio of artists inspired and
challenged each other, and these dynamics played a crucial role in
their creative processes.
