WPA

From 1933 to 1934 the Public Works of Art Project agency did such a poor job at filtering out Holocaust themes and symbols, the Wall Street Robber Baron Bankers, the elite which have always been entrenched in the Treasury Department took over the censorship program in 1934. The department of Treasury approving art just sounded fishy, so the Federal Art Project (FAP) was finally created in August 1935 with a well trained staff. This was the final Works Progress Administration (WPA) for the revolting New Deal artists. The WPA managed and approved art for 5,000 artists who produced some 225,000 pieces of works. By, 1935 the government had full control over the art community and understood the coding in the images, produced by the revolting artist, who were documenting the American Holocaust.

Avant-Garde Art and Experimentation

Arthur Dove

Arthur Garfield Dove in August 2, 1880 to the November 23, 1946 was an American artist. An early American Modernist, he is often considered the first American abstract painter.Although Dove has always occupied a central place in early American Modernism, he was also among the first twentieth-century American artists to produce purely abstract paintings, and he continued this to varying degrees throughout his career. His reputation continued to grow after his death and he has been credited with exercising an indirect influence on the first generation of Abstract Expressionists, such as Jackson Pollock and Mark Rothko, who placed similar emphasis on the artist's subjective experience of his surroundings and on the intrinsic emotional power of color and line.
