The Canvas Mirror: Painting as Politics in the New Deal.
Fogel, Jared A.; Stevens, Robert L.
OAH Magazine of History, v16 n1 p17-25 Fall 2001
Explores four artistic classifications prominent in depression-era art examining and contrasting examples of each: (1) Regionalism; (2) Social Realism; (3) American Idealism; and (4) Anti-Fascism. Focuses on artworks by the artist Seymour Fogel because his work demonstrates that Regionalism and Social Realism were not mutually exclusive and that artists crossed the lines. (CMK)
