The American realist artist John Sloan (1871-1951) is best known
for his portrayals of daily life in early 20th-century New York and
as a member of The Eight and the Ashcan School, alongside peers
like Robert Henri, Everett Shinn, and George Luks. Sloan's artistic
approach was shaped by his experience as a commercial illustrator,
a type of work that inaugurated his professional career--at
newspapers like the "Philadelphia Press" and later for mass-market
magazines--and which he pursued even after he turned his focus to
painting. In "John Sloan: Drawing on Illustration," Michael Lobel
explores the impact of Sloan's illustrating on his wider output,
including his paintings, his drawings for the radical journal "The
""Masses," and his response to the watershed 1913 Armory Show.
Illuminating the interaction between art and popular culture, this
book provides an important new framework for understanding the
modern genre of illustration, and in so doing touches on major
20th-century currents, including the rise and expansion of the mass
media and the visual legacy of European modernism.
