Celebrates the works and lives of four artists who crossed paths in 1920s New York--Miguel Covarrubias, Isami Doi, Aaron Douglas, and Winold Reiss--and explores the complexities of their cross-cultural relationships and representations. This catalog presents the compelling artworks of Miguel Covarrubias, Isami Doi, Aaron Douglas, and Winold Reiss, four artists who crossed paths in New York during the 1920s. The city was rapidly becoming a cultural hub that attracted artists from distant states and far-flung countries. Covarrubias moved to New York from Mexico City, Doi from Hawaii, Douglas from Kansas, and Reiss from Germany. Offering more than just the visual appeal of these artists' works, this catalog delves into fascinating histories of cross-cultural creative inspiration. By exploring the works of these well-known and lesser-known artists from different backgrounds, the book uncovers original, untold stories of American art. Through their interconnectedness, the four artists raise thought-provoking questions about immigration, influence, race, and representation, inviting timely and necessary discussions on our collective cultural history.
