Crossing Boundaries: The Transmission of Rococo

April 29, 2008

1 hr 28 min

During its first wave of influence, the sinuous and sensuous curves of rococo rapidly spread across France, Holland, and Germany, developing a unique personality in each location. Cooper-Hewitt invites curators Henry Hawley, Reinier Baarsen, and Wolfram Koeppe to a panel discussion that examines the diaspora of rococo during the eighteenth century, and the regional differences in its expression. Exhibition viewing to follow.
