One of the most original artists among the American Impressionists and a member of the Ten American Painters, John Twachtman (1853-1902) created his best known work on his property in Greenwich, Connecticut, from 1889 to 1902. This exhibition catalogue focuses on a select group of Twachtman's Greenwich works: his vibrant and sensuous images in oil and pastel of flowers in the wild and in the artist's own garden as well as rare figurative images, in which Twachtman depicted his family in casual outdoor settings. Within this 104-page publication are essays by Richard J. Boyle, William H. Gerdts, John Douglass Hale, and Lisa N. Peters. Each of the twenty works in the show are illustrated in color and there are an additional eighteen color and twenty-four black and white illustrations.

The Cape Ann region of Massachusetts has been a gathering place for artists since the mid-nineteenth century. Drawn to its dynamic contrasts of land and sea, its brilliant, glowing light, and its summer art community, artists found inspiration in the area, which they expressed in works rendered in a wide variety of stylistic approaches. This 16-page catalogue includes twenty-six color plates and three essays (by Karen Quinn and Lisa N. Peters) chronicling the different phases of artist activity on the cape. The artists whose works are discussed and illustrated include Fitz Hugh Lane, Winslow Homer, William Morris Hunt, Childe Hassam, John Henry Twachtman, Frank Duveneck, Edward Henry Potthast, Edward Hopper, John Sloan, Maurice Prendergast, Marsden Hartley, and Stuart Davis.

An American Impressionist who devoted is career to capturing the moods and seasonal splendor of the New England countryside, Robert Emmett Owen created vivid paintings of old farmhouses, colonial churches, winding country roads, rural countrysides, and covered bridges. His works convey the appeal of a region that is the essence of an earlier time in America. This 112-page catalogue includes forty-five color illustrations and a biographical essay by Lisa N. Peters.

Robert Emmett Owen (1878-1957): The Spirit of New England

In the years following the 1913 Armory Show in New York, Chicago, and Boston, modernism became the dominant style in American art. Inspired by the work of the European avant-garde, native artists freely synthesized aspects of Cubism, Fauvism, Futurism, Orphism, Constructivism, and Surrealism into works that expressed their individual personal and theoretical concerns. By contrast with their European counterparts, American created works that tended to be optimistic about technology and modern life. This catalogue presents the art of thirty-two prominent American modernists including Milton Avery, Ilya Bolotowsky, Charles Demuth, Raymond Jonson, John Marin, Jan Matulka, Charles Sheeler, Niles Spencer, Joseph Stella, Mark Tobey, Marguerite Zorach, and William Zorach. An introduction and thirty-eight color plates are included in this catalogue.
