American Modernism: Works from the Kruszewski Tobiasz Collection

This exhibition provides a tantalizing glimpse of American Modernism and its cross-currents at the end of the nineteenth century and in the first decades of the twentieth as seen through a selection of works drawn from the Kruszewski-Tobiasz Collection. From American Impressionist landscapes to the urban grit of the Ashcan School, traditional subjects of art were infused with the energy and motion of modern life. Modern ways of being called for modern ways of seeing. In the ongoing search for the new, abstraction and the simplification of form became their own subject matter. And as artists had increasing access to a new range of media and technologies, from the reproductive print to photography and film, they were also testing the limits of forms and materials. Including such notables as Milton Avery, Thomas Hart Benton, Stuart Davis, Marsden Hartley, Hilla Rebay, John Sloan and Grant Wood, American painters absorbed the movements and –isms proliferating in Europe and forged a distinctive artistic identity.
