Mary Cassatt was a nineteenth century artist, who spent her life working to change traditional beliefs about art. At an early age Mary saw the different movements within the French art world. She would one day be part of this world and would make her own rebellious art.[32]Her career as a successful artist began when in 1870 another of her paintings was accepted into the Paris Salon. But she began to tire of the traditional values of the official art world.[33]The Salon was very set in its ways. It rejected works that showed bright colors, unusual subjects, or any form of experimentation. So she left the Salon and joined in a group of rebellious painters known as the Impressionists. This group of artists had decided that they would no longer follow the rules and restrictions of the Paris Salon. But at the time, many people condemned their art. The Impressionists were interested in painting the effects of light, and how the human eye sees subjects. They used bright colors, rough brush strokes and thick paint to show light and movement in its many forms. They also painted subjects of everyday life. Traditional artists generally painted imagined scenes from history or literature.[34]Cassatt did not stay with the Impressionists for long. She chose freedom over being part of a set art movement. In the 1890s, Cassatt started to experiment with making prints. She repeated their simple but very modern forms in her own prints.[35]She spent most of her life working to change traditional beliefs about art, artists. Today, her paintings are in the top museum collections in the world.
