Over seventy prints from the first half of the twentieth century by more than sixty American artists are included in this exhibition. The exhibition was selected from the extensive holdings of the National Museum of American Art, Smithsonian Institution by the Museum's Curator of Graphic Art, Joann Moser, and is being circulated in the United States by The Trust for Museum Exhibitions, Washington, DC. In addition to prints by such renowned painters and sculptors as Milton Avery, Jackson Pollock, Max Weber, Adolf Gottlieb, Alexander Calder, Arshile Gorky, and Charles Sheeler, the show presents important work by numerous less well-known artists, among them Jolan Gross Bettelheim, Alice Trumball Mason, Benton Spruance, and Blanche Grambs.
