As a matter of fact, I have to dig deep in my thoughts, so I can emphasize the measurement of Ulysses S. Grant and Robert E.…

victors during WW2 but when the tides turned, he knew he had to change sides. Stalin knew the risks but he did what he had to to save the Motherland. Out of all countries who fought in world war two, Russia had the most casualties. One could argue that Stalin single handedly rose Russia up from the ashes of world war one.

Modernists unified under the search for identity rather than a specific artistic approach, constantly questioned what it meant to be American Modernists, and pioneered post World War II abstractionism. O’Keefe’s husband championed American Modernism in a circle of artists that he showcased in a circle of artists that he showcased, featured, and promoted at his gallery.
