![]() World War I and American Art is organized around eight themes: Prelude: The Threat of War Hartley and Hassam: Tenuous Neutrality Debating the War Mobilization Modernists and the War Battlefields The Wounded and the Healers and Celebration and Mourning. The war's impact on art and culture was enormous, as nearly all of the era's major American artists interpreted their experiences, opinions and perceptions of the conflict through their work. The first major museum exhibition to revisit this unprecedented global event through the eyes of American artists, World War I and American Art will transform the current understanding of art made during the war and in its wake. Coinciding with the centenary of America’s involvement with the war, World War I and American Art will be the first major exhibition devoted to exploring the ways in which American artists responded to the First World War. ![]()
