Royal Academy of Arts, America after the Fall: Painting in the 1930s (Closes)

June 4, 2017

Royal Academy of Arts, America after the Fall: Painting in the 1930s.

25 February – 4 June 2017

With all eyes on America at the moment, this show could not be more timely. Bringing together 45 truly iconic works, it paints an electrifying portrait of the great social changes like immigration, industrialisation and urbanisation, which shook America in the wake of the Wall Street Crash. Artists in the exhibition range from Jackson Pollock, Georgia O’Keeffe and Edward Hopper to Thomas Hart Benton, Philip Guston and more. Perhaps the most celebrated work of them all, Grant Wood’s American Gothic, has never been to Europe until now.
Tickets can be booked here.
