In February 1913, the American public was introduced to modern art through a massive presentation of over 1300 works in The International Exhibition of Modern Art. This seminar will detail the genesis of the exhibition, explore some of the significant works included in it, examine reactions by the press and the public, and reveal how its legacy is still felt today.
