American Scene oil painting


American Scene oil Painting is a general term encompassing the mainstream realist and antimodernist style of painting popular in the United States during the Great Depression. A reaction against the European Modernism, it was seen as an attempt to define a uniquely American style of art.The American Scene basically consisted of two main schools, the rurally-oriented Regionalism, and the urban and political Social Realism.A few artists escaped being closely associated with either the Regionalist or Social Realist camps, including Charles Burchfield and Edward Hopper.
