Artlink Bus Trip to the Art Institute of Chicago
WHEN: Tuesday, April 24, 2007
Departing 7:30 a.m. from Meijer’s parking lot on Lima Road
COST: Artlink members $65, non-members $68
DEADLINE: April 9, 2007
CONTACT: Deb Washler, Executive Director, 260-424-7195,
email: deb@artlinkfw.com; www.artlinkfw.com
Artlink is sponsoring a daylong bus trip to the Art Institute of Chicago on Tuesday, April 24 to view “Cezanne to Picasso: Ambroise Vollard, Patron of the Avant-Garde.” The bus will leave Fort Wayne at 7:30 a.m. from Meijer’s parking lot on Lima Road. The trip will include a guided tour of the Glessner House on Prairie Avenue, in one of Chicago’s wealthiest neighborhoods, as well as admission to the Art Institute and the special exhibition at 12:30. Participants are free to lunch or shop anywhere they choose during the afternoon. The bus will depart from Chicago at 5:30 p.m. and arrive in Fort Wayne at approximately 8:30 p.m. Cost is $65 for Artlink members and $68 for non-members. Price includes museum and exhibit admission, transportation, driver tip and morning and evening snacks. Contact Artlink for a registration form at 260-424-7195.
The “Cezanne to Picasso” exhibition concentrates on the artists represented by art dealer Ambroise Vollard, who in 1895 hosted Cezanne’s first solo exhibition. Vollard became the principal dealer of artists such as Gauguin, Van Gogh, Bonnard, Matisse and Picasso and collected their work for his personal collection. This exhibition, which includes many portraits of Vollard painted by these artists, underscores his importance. Several of these works are on view for the first time in Chicago.
Artlink’s bus trip to Chicago is one of two annual trips to prominent Midwestern art museums sponsored by the gallery. Artlink is a not-for-profit contemporary art gallery founded in 1978 whose principal mission is to showcase artwork of highest quality by emerging or mid-career artists. Artlink is a funded member of Arts United of Greater Fort Wayne.
(Aside) Sounds like a spectacular exhibition!

American Stories will begin at 1pm, or come early and meet us for lunch at the FWMoA at 12:30!
