    This is the link for all exhibits and one in particular is described below.

    The Phoenix Art Museum has a special exhibit of Monet and others:

    Masterpiece Replayed: Monet, Matisse and More
    Katz Wing, Main Level
    January 20, 2008 – May 4, 2008
    This extraordinary exhibition explores how and why 19th century French painters repeated themselves in their paintings – often painting the same scene over and over – for deliberate and defined purposes. In fact, much of the history of European painting is of artists meaningfully repeating themselves, returning to a theme, or even duplicating their own designs. This exhibition examines – in approximately 60 of the most famous paintings, watercolors, sculptures and etchings by such artists as David, Delacroix, Gérôme, Corot, Millet, Monet, Degas, Cézanne, Matisse and others – how French painters in the 19th and early 20th centuries used repetition and what repetition came to mean for them as individual artists. The 13 case-studies in the exhibition provide an unprecedented opportunity to compare different versions of masterpieces and to instigate a conversation about originality and mastery. This exhibition will be on view at only two locations in the country, Phoenix Art Museum and Walters Art Museum in Baltimore, which organized the exhibition. It will be specially-ticketed with date and time-specific entry:

    Tuesday: 11:30am-9pm (last entry 7:30pm)
    Wednesday, Thursday: 11:30am-5pm (last entry 3:30pm)
    Friday, Saturday & Sunday: 10am-5pm (last entry 3:30pm)
    First Fridays: 6pm-9pm (last entry 7:30pm)
    Entry times begin every 30 minutes

    $20 adults / $8 youth ages 6 – 17
    Free for children under age 6
    Free for Museum Members (with some restrictions)
    Tickets include the exhibition multimedia guide and general
    Life is short, live it with this awareness.
