John Sloan was a key figure in early twentieth century American art. A student of Robert Henri, Sloan became a fixture in “The Eight,” a group of painters devoted to social realism. Like many artists, the revelations of the Armory Show of 1913 sent Sloan down a new, exploratory, modernist path, a path that eventually took him to Santa Fe, where he painted and etched unidealized scenes of pueblo life and of the contrasts between the lives of whites and the lives of indigenous people.
