Degas Goes Modern

We think of Edgar Degas primarily as a painter, the great chronicler of ballet.  But a new exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in New York reveals a restless seeker after the new, the innovative.  

The exhibit, Edgar Degas:  A Strange New Beauty, focuses on his use of the monotype process, with some astonishing results:

"The exhibition includes approximately 120 rarely seen monotypes—along with some 60 related paintings, drawings, pastels, sketchbooks, and prints—that show Degas at his most modern."
