John Sloan (1871-1951) began his career as a commercial newspaper artist in Philadelphia where he studied with Robert Henri. Following Henri to New York, Sloan joined a small circle of eight talented artists whose dissatisfaction with the dominating National Academy led to a protest exhibit in 1908, the emergence of a powerful movement for change in American art, and ultimately to the famous Armory Show of 1913. It was in part Sloan?s dark palette and views of city streets and working-class life that gave rise to the epithet now used to describe the works of the “Ashcan School.? Sloan?s compelling images of New York City are the subject of this generously illustrated book. His paintings, drawings, and prints clearly reflect his own experience of the city as he walked its neighborhoods and observed human dramas played out in streets and apartments.

In November 2011, the Delaware Art Museum began celebrating 100 years of supporting the visual arts in its community through its collection, exhibitions, and programs. To commemorate the Museum's past annual exhibitions of painting and crafts-combined to form the Biennial in 1989-a juried Centennial will be on view from October 2012 through January 2013. The exhibition will feature a variety of media-drawing, painting, sculpture, photography, video, and installation-and include artists living either within the State of Delaware or within 100 miles of the Museum. Guest-juried by John B. Ravenal, the Sydney and Frances Lewis Family Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, this centennial exhibition celebrates the tradition of juried exhibitions in Delaware and the surrounding region. This catalog accompanies the exhibition and includes a Director's Foreword, Juror's Statement, entry on each artist, and an essay on the history of juried exhibitions at the Museum.

In the century following Pyle's 1911 death, American illustration has diversified into a creative empire that includes a wide range of exciting art forms. From animated feature movies and computer images to graphic novels and conceptual art, America's storytelling artists use the latest technologies and the newest media to tell an ever-richer blend of stories to ever-broader audiences. For this exciting contemporary exhibition, Guest Curator David Apatoff, an illustration author and blogger, has gathered over 60 artworks from eight important illustrators: story illustrator Bernie Fuchs; graphic designer Milton Glaser; MAD caricaturist and comic artist Mort Drucker; The New Yorker cover artist and character designer for animated films, Peter de Sève; editorial artist John Cuneo; painter and book artist Phil Hale; painter and magazine illustrator Sterling Hundley; and Pixar production designer Ralph Eggleston.
