The Gallery Council Art Tours Committee is delighted to present the Barnes Foundation virtual tour, back by popular demand!
The first tour was such a huge success that participants requested we visit the galleries we didn’t have time for during the first visit. Once again, we’ll enjoy a special private docent tour with the innovative 360 degrees technology that allows us to zoom in so close we can see the artists’ brush strokes.
The Barnes collection includes 181 paintings by Pierre-August Renoir, the largest in the world, as well as 69 by Cezanne, 59 by Matisse, 46 by Picasso, Degas, Van Gogh, and every other impressionist painter you’ve ever admired. Its founder, Dr. Albert Barnes, collected only the very best masterpieces. It’s an amazing collection.

England has one of the best vaccination news in all of Europe. Join us for a safe and exciting tour of hidden gems most tourists don’t experience. Led by an engaging and knowledgeable art historian, we’ll explore both timeless classics and vibrant contemporary artists.
MAG’s Director, Jonathan Binstock, will guide us through a visit to the famous young British artist Isaac Julian’s studio whose work appeared at MAG in 2019. Jonathan has also arranged a special treat— a visit to a private art collection, a secret until it’s revealed in London. As with his previous private collection visits, this will undoubtedly be a highlight of the trip.
