From France on Your Own: (thanks, Jody)
Renovations at Musée d'Orsay / Two Major Exhibitions head west - Starting in November 2009, Musée d’Orsay began a partial renovation and re-installation to prepare for its 25th Anniversary in 2011. Two major exhibitions will head to the U.S. in 2010: Birth of Impressionism: Masterpieces from the Musée d’Orsay and Van Gogh, Gauguin, Cézanne and Beyond: Post-Impressionist Masterpieces from the Musée d’Orsay. San Francisco's de Young Museum will be the only museum in the world to host both exhibitions. Each exhibition will include approximately 100 paintings from the Musée d'Orsay's permanent collection and highlights the work of nearly 40 artists including Cézanne, Degas, Gauguin, Manet, Monet, Pissarro, Renoir, Rousseau, Seurat, Sisley, Toulouse-Lautrec, van Gogh and Vuillard. The Musée d'Orsay will remain open during the renovations, despite the absence of several hundred key pieces of art. www.musee-orsay.fr / www.deyoungmuseum.org
