Jasper Johns, Three Flags, 1958 How Artists See America

Jasper Johns, Map (1961) Jasper Johns (1930-), is best known for his paintings of maps, targets, flags, and numbers. America is a country.

John Trumbull, The Declaration of Independence, 4 July 1776 ( ) In a letter to Thomas Jefferson, John Trumbull ( ) once wrote, “The greatest motive…for continuing my pursuit of painting has been the wish of commemorating the great events of our country’s revolution.” America is an idea.

Paul Seifert, Wisconsin Farm Scene (1880) Paul Seifert ( ), was born in Germany, and settled in Wisconsin around He was a travelling folk painter, who never charged more than $2.50 to paint someone’s farm. America is farms.

America is cities. Bernice Abbott, The Night View, (ca. 1934)Georgia O’Keeffe, Brooklyn Bridge (1949)

Edward Hopper, Early Sunday Morning, (1930) His paintings include many typical American scenes, such as small town streets, gas stations, and railroads. Edward Hopper ( ) once said, “I don’t think I ever tried to paint the American Scene; I’m trying to paint myself.” America is Main Street.

Thomas Hart Benton, Cradling Wheat (1938) As a Regionalist mural painter, Thomas Hart Benton ( ) wasn’t a fan of modern art trends, preferring to paint scenes from rural life. His father was a U.S. Congressman. America is hard work.

Mark Tansey, Action Painting II, (1984) Mark Tansey, (1949-) whose parents were both art historians, creates paintings that poke fun at both art and history. In Action Painting II, we see amateur artists painting the space shuttle liftoff as if it were a landscape or a still life. America is freedom.
