In Paris, Cassatt committed herself to a career as a professional artist and made the social, intellectual, and working lives of modern women a core subject of her prints, paintings, and pastels. Though recognized in her lifetime for her intimate depictions of women and children, Cassatt has yet to be appreciated for her serious engagement with the realities of gender and labor in her portrayal of other traditionally feminine activities, such as embroidery, reading, and making social appearances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These depictions lie at the heart of <em>Mary Cassatt at Work<\/em>, which will present over 130 diverse works that follow the artist\u2019s evolving practice and demonstrate her interest in the \u201cserious work\u201d of art-making. The exhibition will present new findings about the materials she used and her processes\u2014which were advanced for her era\u2014as it coincides with a detailed technical study of the Philadelphia Museum of Art\u2019s significant Cassatt holdings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Mary Cassatt at Work<\/em> is the first major presentation of the artist\u2019s oeuvre since 1998\u201399. By considering her professionalism, her life, and the wider Parisian world she inhabited, a richer and more complex picture of Cassatt develops, inviting contemporary conversations about gender, work, and artistic agency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The exhibition opened on Saturday, May 18 and will be on view until September 8, 2024<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For tickets and to find out more about the exhibition and the Philadelphia Museum of Art, click&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fphilamuseum.org%2Fcalendar%2Fexhibition%2Fmary-cassatt-at-work&amp;data=05%7C02%7Cyann.lemerdy%40frenchculture.org%7C8c7cf966f4e94ba89bdd08dca1e5e262%7C2d6ab33a15c04d1eb0363b23ceb26830%7C0%7C0%7C638563255996305080%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=1hIbOgi7InkmwlCuZ5jxHf66IXlcwbCDArde%2BEBrgZU%3D&amp;reserved=0\">here<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Speakers<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\">\n\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"228\" src=\"https:\/\/villa-albertine.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Jennifer-Thompson-headshot-e1720732213182.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/villa-albertine.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Jennifer-Thompson-headshot-e1720732213182.jpg 600w, https:\/\/villa-albertine.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Jennifer-Thompson-headshot-e1720732213182-300x114.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/>\n\t\t\t<figcaption>\n\t\t\t<p>Courtesy of Jennifer Thompson<\/p>\n\t\t<\/figcaption>\n\t<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Jennifer A.
