Personally, I love themed art exhibitions because I always learn from them. I learn about pictures that I have never before seen or sometimes gain an understanding of an artist’s evolution of style. Many painters have favorite motifs (Cezanne’s apples, van Gogh’s olive trees) or subjects (Renoir’s nudes, Ribera’s old men), and a themed exhibition can highlight such preferences. In the case of the French Impressionist Gustave Caillebotte (my favorite artist), this motif was the world of men.
