At the Dawn of a New Age offers an expanded understanding of the complexity of American art produced between 1900 and 1930. Featuring over sixty works by forty-five artists drawn primarily from the Whitney’s permanent collection, the work in this exhibition captures the exuberant sense of freedom and experimentation characteristic of the time. While some of the artists featured in the exhibition, such as Georgia O’Keeffe and Marsden Hartley, are still well known today, many similarly groundbreaking modernists have been largely forgotten.
