Description: The second volume of 'The World of William Glackens' expands the story of American art in the early 20th century. Teresa Carbone highlights a breakout work by Glackens, while Charles Brock shows how alternative exhibitions of American modernists changed the art world. The fertile artistic location of Philadelphia is the backdrop of Judith Barter's essay and Marc Simpson discusses Philadelphia's Thomas Eakins and his affection for Paris. This volume also includes lectures given by Avis Berman, Carol Troyen and Sylvia Yount at a 2014 symposium held at the Barnes Foundation in conjunction with the first major exhibition of Glackens' work in 50 years.--Publisher's web site.
