The twentieth century began with American artists marginalised by American patrons in favour of expanding their collections with art from Europe. What followed was a mix of creativity: realist painting, abstract painting, dynamism, stillness, “high art” and “popular art” and in these many forms twentieth century American artists expressed the diverse identities that defined America.
