Water Lilies of Monet at the Eden Cinemas

Water Lilies of Monet – the Magic of Water and Light will be showing exclusively at the Eden Cinemas as part of its coveted Eden Culture season on Friday 30th November at 8pm and Sunday 2nd December at 3pm.

Water Lilies of Monet tells the story of the origin of a massive work of art that broke with convention, of an artist resurrecting his life only thanks to painting.

His human endeavor defied both space and conventions in his timeless masterpieces. In a wartorn country, the undisputed genius of French Art disrupted the art world and changes it forever.

As the end of the First World War drew near it became clear to Monet that his work of art could not but be his final legacy to France: a symbol of peace, hope, and resistance, in a battered and bloody world.

This is the tale of an obsession with light and water the painter could not escape from and how he transformed it into a kind of magic. A tale of the radical elements that revolutionised Modern Art: Monet’s clear intent was to transfer onto canvas the “first, pure impression” of forms and objects as they appear to the eye that has never seen them before.

This incredible documentary will show the Water Lilies by Claude Monet, as they have never been seen before. A unique, exclusive look at the masterpieces housed at the Orangerie Museum, the Marmottan Museum, the Orsay Museum and Giverny, for the first time ever on the big screen for an unrepeatable experience.
