Excerpt from The Forum Exhibition of Modern American Painters, March 13th to March 25th, 1916 The object of the present exhibition is to put before the American public in a large and complete manner the very best examples of the more modern American art; to stimulate interest in the really good native work of this movement; to present for the first time a comprehensive, critical selection of the serious painting now being shown in isolated groups; to turn public attention for the moment from European art an concentrate it on the excellent work being done in America; and to bring serious, deserving painters in direct contact with the public without a commercial intermediary. Out of fifty names of the most deserving very modern American painters, the Committee has selected the sixteen names here represented; and from the large number of paintings submitted, the Committee has chosen the works now on view. Thus not only are the artists chosen for their merit, but the works also represent what, in the eyes of the Committee, are the best paintings of each artist. The Forum Committee is composed of six men actively interested in art - men who hold high positions in their respective fields in America. Dr. Christian Brinton has for many years been one of the foremost American critics and lecturers on international art. He is the author of Modern Artists, Impressions of the Art at the Panama-Pacific Exposition, and many other works on painting; he is Advisory Editor of Art in America, and a regular contributor to the leading art journals. Robert Henri is an artist of international reputation. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
