Publisher's Synopsis
This volume documents the "Exhibition Of Contemporary French Art" held at the Ritz-Carlton Ballroom in New York in January 1916. Organized for the Relief Fund for the Families of French Soldier Artists, the exhibition showcased contemporary French art to an American audience during World War I. The event was sponsored by the French Ministry of Public Instruction, the FraternitÃ(c) des Artistes, and the American Artists' Committee of One Hundred.
This book offers a glimpse into the artistic and cultural exchange between France and America during a pivotal moment in history, revealing both the artistic trends of the time and the philanthropic efforts to support those affected by the war. It serves as a valuable resource for scholars of art history, cultural studies, and World War I era history, illustrating the power of art to transcend national boundaries and foster international solidarity.
