                  <text>This collection of more than 200 paintings owes its existence to two primary causes: allocations from the Federal Art Project to a New York state tuberculosis sanatorium located at Mt. Morris--the landscapes and still lifes were thought to be restful--and to the committed volunteers who helped preserve the paintings after the hospital closed. For several decades the canvases were stored in non-climate-controlled basements; it appears that doctors and staff removed at least three dozen works as "keepsakes." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Despite the seeming tranquility of the paintings, they were created by artists primarily from New York City whose background was more political and aesthetically adventurous than this rural location would indicate. &lt;a href="https://openvalley.org/exhibits/show/green-new-deal/about" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Follow this hyperlink to a short introduction to the New Deal Gallery collection&lt;/a&gt;. We're grateful to the Genesee Valley Council on the Arts for access to their collection, which has been re-photographed and appears here at two resolutions: a cropped, web-friendly file size of around 1 MB; and a high-resolution file including the painting's frame.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Items in this collection were created according to a consistent format: a short description of each painting in formal terms, followed by a biography of each artist. Where possible we have supplied hyperlinks relevant to their lives and to other examples of their art.

                <text>&lt;em&gt;Bronx River and County Center, White Plains&lt;/em&gt; is a scenic oil painting overlooking the eponymous landmarks the title suggests. Jumping past the absence of a foreground into the middle ground, half of the painting’s composition is taken up by billowing, soft trees to the left. To the right, in the distant background, lies the skyline of White Plains. Worrall uses the rule of thirds to divide existing nature and excavation of it for this city-adjacent community. Lying at the lower third of the painting is the Bronx River, reflecting both the closer, taller building and the trees in its clear, blue water. Above it is an even brighter sky from a cloudy sky, blanketing the painting in a comforting negative space. The painting has approached the scene with a unique tenderness, especially in the motion and texture of the trees, water, and grass. Color is used sparingly, Worrall limiting his palette to a selection of cool tones and a variation of green and blue. Much of the contrast is in the shadow cast by the trees, whereas the rest of the painting relies on midtones, achieving an overall calming, serene landscape just barely out of reach.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;About the Artist&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;W.H. Worrall, born William Henry Worrall in Poughkeepsie, NY, was an American painter who spent brief moments in the limelight. Little is known about him, although his work was exhibited at the New York State Historical Association at Ticonderoga on June 13&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt;, 1935, where an apparent series of his works depicting domestic labor tools, including cheese-making, spinning and weaving, and candle-making were displayed. This seems to be the only record of his exhibitions, although he worked as a professional illustrator, including projects like William H. Carson’s novel &lt;a href="https://archive.org/details/fool00cars/page/n8/mode/thumb?q=%22w+h+worrall%22"&gt;&lt;em&gt;The Fool&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt; (1902) and drawings for &lt;a href="https://archive.org/details/sim_field-stream_1901-01_5_12/mode/1up?q=%22w+h+worrall%22"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Field and Stream&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. His activities outside of art are captured on news articles, such as &lt;em&gt;The Lake Placid News&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;The Adirondack Record&lt;/em&gt;, covering some of his life interests. He was a man who loved the outdoors and was active in several communities, drawing open-air scenes and often credited for participation in conventions for young working men, like the YMCA and Rochester Public Health Association. His was the first individual contribution to the &lt;em&gt;Daily Reporter’s &lt;/em&gt;Summer Camp Fund, funding several boys’ outdoor experiences. &lt;em&gt;As&lt;/em&gt; far as education, Worrall attended the Art Students League. Despite his obscurity, his death was noted in &lt;em&gt;The New York Times&lt;/em&gt;, where he was referred to as a widowed water-color artist who favored landscapes. Like his grandfather William Henry Worrall, a pioneer settler of Poughkeepsie with whom he shared a name, this painter was a lover of the Hudson Valley. He passed away at White Plains Hospital from a heart ailment on October 8&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt;, 1939. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&#13;

                <text>Published a year after the conclusion of World War II, the tone of this 36-page travel guide to New York is one of making up for lost time. "With motor travel again unlimited," we are told, "New York's 59,000 miles of improved highways beckon the autoist to enjoy the State's attractions from the vantage-point of his own conveyance." Clearly, the automotive age has begun in earnest. The state is divided into fifteen regional "Vacationlands," including the Genesee Valley and Finger Lakes. There are thematic sections highlighting activities for seemingly any taste: Fishing, Swimming, Hiking, Camping, Motoring, Historic Shrines... even Flowers and Geology make an appearance. It's an intriguing glimpse into the early trajectory of postwar tourism, which still is relatively outdoors-centered in its emphasis.</text>

                <text>A newspaper article written by Daily News tells the story about how migrant workers who pick potatoes in Wyoming Country may be replaced by machines. The paper then goes on to state just how dangerous migrant workers' jobs are and how it is probably better that the machines do this type of work instead of humans. Sylvia Kelly - coordinator of the Geneseo Migrant Center was interviewed in this article as well, where she states her first-hand experience with how migrant workers are treated. Kelly then goes on to talk about the work she has done with the migrant farmworkers and expresses the immense talent that they have. </text>

                  <text>This collection of more than 200 paintings owes its existence to two primary causes: allocations from the Federal Art Project to a New York state tuberculosis sanatorium located at Mt. Morris--the landscapes and still lifes were thought to be restful--and to the committed volunteers who helped preserve the paintings after the hospital closed. For several decades the canvases were stored in non-climate-controlled basements; it appears that doctors and staff removed at least three dozen works as "keepsakes." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Despite the seeming tranquility of the paintings, they were created by artists primarily from New York City whose background was more political and aesthetically adventurous than this rural location would indicate. &lt;a href="https://openvalley.org/exhibits/show/green-new-deal/about" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Follow this hyperlink to a short introduction to the New Deal Gallery collection&lt;/a&gt;. We're grateful to the Genesee Valley Council on the Arts for access to their collection, which has been re-photographed and appears here at two resolutions: a cropped, web-friendly file size of around 1 MB; and a high-resolution file including the painting's frame.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Items in this collection were created according to a consistent format: a short description of each painting in formal terms, followed by a biography of each artist. Where possible we have supplied hyperlinks relevant to their lives and to other examples of their art. In order to better view them using the Omeka program, click on the "View All" option at the bottom of this page to access various sorting options.</text>

                <text>One of several prints Ximenez created for the Associated American Artists gallery in New York, this artfully composed scene manages to fit several elements of Mexican culture into its frame. Upon cobblestone streets and against the wall of a building, a heavy wagon with wooden wheels carries a bundle of wood. It is pulled by two mottled oxen, driven by a man wearing a serape and sombrero. Although the serape’s bold design catches the eye, it’s only one of several patterns gathered here.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;About the Artist&lt;/span&gt;: Born in Mexico, Ximenez studied at the Bellas Artes while supporting himself as a commercial artist. He immigrated to the US in 1923 and married the daughter of famous concert pianist Maria Carreras two years later. For a brief time Ximenez was the subject of tabloid fascination after her parents, he charged, tricked her into traveling to the US so as to marry a wealthier America (Davis). In 1930 he was working as a cartoonist in New York, then shortly after that must have moved west to pursue employment. As of 1935, Ximenez had been working four years as an animator in the Hollywood studio of &lt;a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fleischer_Studios" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Max Fleischer&lt;/a&gt; and was exploring the establishment of his own in Mexico (&lt;em&gt;Motion Picture Daily&lt;/em&gt; 7 Aug. 1935: 10). Apparently this did not work out, because he exhibited his FAP-sponsored work was exhibited at the Brooklyn Academy of Music (1936) and an Associated American Artists traveling show during 1937. 4 more works at the &lt;a href="https://www.nga.gov/collection/artist-info.34152.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;National Gallery of Art&lt;/a&gt;. 1 more work at the &lt;a href="https://art.famsf.org/alfredo-ximenez/fruit-vendor-m%C3%A9xico-19633024789" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Fine Art Museums of San Francisco&lt;/a&gt;. 1 more image at &lt;a href="https://www.aaa.si.edu/collections/federal-art-project-photographic-division-collection-5467/series-1/box-24-folder-32" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;FAP&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sources Consulted&lt;/u&gt;: Forrest Davis, “Parents Stole Bride, Says Artist” (New York &lt;em&gt;Daily News&lt;/em&gt; 13 April 1928: 514).</text>

                  <text>This collection of more than 200 paintings owes its existence to two primary causes: allocations from the Federal Art Project to a New York state tuberculosis sanatorium located at Mt. Morris--the landscapes and still lifes were thought to be restful--and to the committed volunteers who helped preserve the paintings after the hospital closed. For several decades the canvases were stored in non-climate-controlled basements; it appears that doctors and staff removed at least three dozen works as "keepsakes." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Despite the seeming tranquility of the paintings, they were created by artists primarily from New York City whose background was more political and aesthetically adventurous than this rural location would indicate. &lt;a href="https://openvalley.org/exhibits/show/green-new-deal/about" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Follow this hyperlink to a short introduction to the New Deal Gallery collection&lt;/a&gt;. We're grateful to the Genesee Valley Council on the Arts for access to their collection, which has been re-photographed and appears here at two resolutions: a cropped, web-friendly file size of around 1 MB; and a high-resolution file including the painting's frame.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Items in this collection were created according to a consistent format: a short description of each painting in formal terms, followed by a biography of each artist. Where possible we have supplied hyperlinks relevant to their lives and to other examples of their art.

                <text>&lt;p&gt;Although a train platform in the foreground bears the name “Small Town,” the frame of Yaghjian’s painting had referenced &lt;a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beacon,_New_York" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Beacon, NY&lt;/a&gt; before getting crossed out in favor of this more universal theme. We are invited to ascend a wooden stairway into a quaint town whose buildings are arrayed upon its hillside: a brick commercial building near the tracks, a church and more ornate homes higher up. Warm earthtones and green foliage predominate. Small traces of the forces that would transform such towns lurk at the corners of the painting, like telephone wires or an automobile at lower right.&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;About the Artist&lt;/span&gt;: Born in Harpoot, Armenia, Yaghjian immigrated to the US with his family in 1907 and was raised in Providence, RI. He attended the Rhode Island School of Design on scholarship and received a BA in Fine Arts in 1930. &amp;nbsp;He then continued his studies with the Art Students League, where he met &lt;a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_French_Sloan" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;John French Sloan&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stuart_Davis_(painter)" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Stuart Davis&lt;/a&gt;, both significant influences upon his work. His work was exhibited at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Corcoran Gallery, the National Gallery, and many other venues; he was the subject of numerous solo shows. At the 1936 Whitney Biennial, Anita Brenner grouped him with artists like Edward Hopper and NDG artist Dorothy Varian in their use of colors that are “dominant in most American landscapes, intense, precise and small within great space and immense sky.” Some of his most important contributions came as an art teacher, initially for the Art Students League in New York (1938-1943), then briefly at the University of Missouri. In 1945 Yaghjian was hired to head the art faculty at the University of South Carolina, where he taught until retirement in 1972. He was known for painting scenes from everyday life, both in New York and in South Carolina; while he continually painted his surroundings, his style shifted throughout his career from realism to stylized abstraction to abstraction. He lived in Columbia for the rest of his life, where he still was dancing two nights a week at the age of 85. 1 work at the &lt;a href="https://americanart.si.edu/artist/edmund-yaghjian-5506" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Smithsonian American Art Museum&lt;/a&gt;. 1 work at the &lt;a href="https://gibbesmuseum.pastperfectonline.com/webobject/49EFFAFD-128B-45BC-BC3B-292859903974" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Gibbs Museum of Art&lt;/a&gt;. 1 work at the &lt;a href="https://chrysler.emuseum.com/search/Yaghjian" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Chrysler Museum&lt;/a&gt; of Art. 1 work at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. 1 more image at &lt;a href="https://www.aaa.si.edu/collections/federal-art-project-photographic-division-collection-5467/series-1/box-24-folder-33" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;FAP&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;a href="http://digital.tcl.sc.edu/cdm/ref/collection/savage/id/127" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Oral history interview&lt;/a&gt; at University of South Carolina.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
