what types of art were produced by government sponsored artists
Thus was born the Public Works of Art Project (PWAP), which in roughly the first four months of 1934 hired 3,749 artists and produced 15,663 paintings, murals, prints, crafts and sculptures for government buildings around the country.
Actually there had been two President Franklin Roosevelt government sponsored art projects before the August 29, 1935 inaugurated FAP. They were the Section of Painting and Sculpture and the Public Works of Art operated by the U.S. Department of Treasury.
