Zusammenfassung: | Off the beaten path: aspects of rural modernism / Amanda C. Burdan -- Pennsylvania precisionism: regionalism and modernity / Betsy Fahlman -- Adobe contours and windowed views: framing a modern vision of the Southwest / Catherine Whitney -- "What I have done with where I have been": some queer American modernists and the rural experience / Jonathan Frederick Walz -- N.C. Wyeth, American regionalist / Christine B. Pdmaniczky Paintings of New England coastlines, small-town Pennsylvania, Southwestern canyons, Midwestern farms, and other evocative landscapes fill the pages of this book. More than sixty modernist works, created between the wars, present an important and often overlooked history: how American painters adapted avant-garde styles like Cubism and Fauvism to reimagine familiar landscapes and develop a distinctively American modernist vernacular. Richly illustrated and with insightful essays by noted scholars, the book traces this development through a broad range of works by both lesser-known and widely celebrated artists. As important as the marvel of the twentieth-century city was to modernist artists such as these, many sought respite and even refuge in quieter, rural areas of the country, and soon helped to confirm modernism's enduring nature.
