Description
Excerpt from Art and Artists of Indiana
HE appreciation of art in Indiana has made a splendid growth within the last decade. It has been'' encouraged and fostered by the women''s clubs studying art, and by the Indiana Artists'' Traveling Exhibition, which has been sent out annually by the Art Committee of the Indiana Federation of Clubs. This has made an exhibit of original art possible in the large cities, as well as in the smaller villages of the state. The intelligent instruction in art given in the public schools is rapidly creating a definite, discriminating taste and enjoyment for better decoration, pictures of worth, and architecture of intrinsic value.
It is our privilege to be the custodian in our time of the heritage of those who are to come. The art of Indiana for years was very meager, but the future art promises to rank with that of the best. A New York art critic recently said The art and artists of Indiana lead all other states in number and quality of production.
