An important catalogue chock full of information about immigrant artists in the U.S. It should be noted that this catalogue is anachronistic in its focus on artists from the Old World (i.e., Europe). Nonetheless, for all its limitations, this remains a very useful resource. *** "Visit 204 works by 67 foreign-born painters, sculptors, architects and photographers celebrating the fact that in the past century, the U.S. offered sanctuary to the world's immigrants and refugees, and that, in turn, the artist-immigrants made major contributions to our cultural heritage." - Publisher. *** Among major works and artists are: Battle of Lights, Coney Island by Joseph Stella; Rush Hour, New York by Max Weber; The Artist and His Mother by Arshile Gorky; The Passion of Sacco and Vanzetti by Ben Shahn; Hollywood Torso by Alexander Archipenko; Documentation, Project for Black Mountain College by Walter Gropius and Marcel Breuer; Flight and Arrival by Jacques Lipchitz; New York by Piet Mondrian; Beginning by Max Beckman; The Meeting by Richard Lindner; Land of Bliss and Wonders, California by Hans Hofmann.
