	Frist Center for the Visual Arts - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Frist Center for the Visual Arts is an art museum in Nashville, Tennessee.
		The museum is housed in what used to be the main post office designed by Marr and Holman Architects for the city of Nashville, which had been built in the 1930s near Union Station, since most mail at that time was moved by train.
		The Frist Center does not have a permanent collection in the truest sense; rather, the museum focuses on creating exhibits as well bringing in travelling exhibits, of which several are usually running concurrently.

		The Frist Foundation then began to form a public/private partnership with local and federal agencies to acquire the post office building and surrounding land as the home for the facility, which would later be named the Frist Center for the Visual Arts.
		This commitment is reflected in the Center's mission to stimulate and nourish an understanding and appreciation of the visual arts among people of all ages and diverse backgrounds.
		The Conte Community Arts Gallery, on the west side of the main level, is devoted to exhibitions that are of local interest or related to the Center's outreach in the community.

		The paintings in this collection represent a pivotal period in art history, spanning approximately 50 years, when European artists were pursuing a radical transformation that was to forever change the meaning and understanding of art.
		Avant-garde artists, particularly in France, translated their perceptions and observations of society and the natural world into a language of rich color and expressive form, which increasingly emphasized the artist’s vision and personal sensibility over the need to represent reality or depict the literary, classical or biblical themes that were then popular in academic art.
		Works in the exhibition by Monet, Renoir, Sisley, Pissarro and Fantin-Latour exemplify the Impressionists' celebrated use of loosely applied strokes or dabs of paint that remind the viewers of the immediate touch of the brush and the artist's presence behind it.
