THE ART STUDENTS LEAGUE OF NEW YORK: A HISTORY.
From its humble beginnings in a twenty-by thirty-foot "cockloft" on the fourth floor of a building at 108 Fifth Avenue in New York City to its palatial home at 215 West 57th Street, the Art Students League of New York has grown from what was in the spring and summer of 1875 a startlingly innovative concept to one of the world's most respected art schools. Since its inception in 1875 and throughout the 20th century, the Art Students League of New York has been a major force in the course of events which caused the art capital of the world to move from Europe to New York City. Intimately involved with almost every significant art movement in this country, its roll of students and instructors represents a veritable "Who's Who" of American art. This is its story. |
