It's All in the Cards: Cezanne, Pedagogy and Purpose
Pedagogies are in play every day in the galleries of the great art institutions of the world, guiding how we teach and shaping how we learn. This lecture explores Cezanne’s Cardplayers, past and present, and the profound experiences of art promoted by Barnes, Dewey, and de Mazia.

About The Barnes Foundation:
The mission of the Barnes is to promote the advancement of education and the appreciation of the fine arts and horticulture.

Our founder, Dr. Albert C. Barnes, believed that art had the power to improve minds and transform lives. Our diverse educational programs are based on his teachings and one-of-a-kind collections. 

Philadelphia art collector, Albert C. Barnes (1872–1951), chartered the Barnes Foundation in 1922 to teach people from all walks of life how to look at art. Over three decades, he collected some of the world’s most important impressionist, post-impressionist, and modern paintings, including works by Renoir, Cézanne, Matisse, and Picasso. He displayed them alongside African masks, native American jewelry, Greek antiquities, and decorative metalwork.
