In 1933, America was gripped by an economic depression; it was one of the most trying times in American history. At that time, art dealer and marketer Reeves Lewenthal organized Associated American Artists (AAA), conceived to distribute affordable, original art to every American. During its 20 years, AAA had grown to international importance. The evidence of the cultural impact was everywhere; in the nation's homes, greeting cards and apparel.
The exhibition is organized by the Springfield Museum of Art, Springfield, Ohio, and tour management is provided by Smith and Kramer Fine Art Services.
