American modernism in the visual arts has garnered sustained interest among scholars and general audiences in recent years, though typically with a focus on modernist painting. This exhibition and publication seek to expand that narrow emphasis, highlighting an array of techniques and a range of artists who explored modernism’s myriad forms through paper-based media. Artists working in modernist modes shared challenges regardless of location, and this volume brings out these commonalities as it focuses on regional centers that embraced and supported modernist trends. Unlike more exclusive accounts of modernist painting, the story of modernist works on paper provides a broader, more democratic view of American modernism that highlights the contributions of many lesser-known artists to this important twentieth-century history. The catalogue includes an introduction by curator of American art Jeffrey Richmond-Moll and an essay and catalogue entries by Michael T. Ricker and is thoroughly illustrated in color.
