John Marin, “View from the Bridge NYC,” 1933, part of the exhibition “Edith Halpert and the Rise of American Art” at the @thejewishmuseum . It is a must see show exhibiting works by the many American artists that Halpert championed. Halpert was a “force of nature.” Rebecca Shaykin who curated the show says: “She firmly believed in the quality of the American art of her era; her aim was to teach her fellow citizens to value the art of their own country, in their own time.” #artexhibition #artoftheday #edithhalpert #johnmarin #samuelhalpert #modernart #modernism #watercolorpainting #paintingoftheday #americanart https://www.instagram.com/p/B4LrFp4gqQw/?igshid=v1pbjsv1vqga
