Biography: Pennsylania born illustrator and painter John French Sloan was a pioneer of the Social Realist movement and a founder of the Ashcan School. He participated in the landmark exhibition of The Eight in New York in 1908, in which the artists broke academic tradition through both technique and subject matter, and helped organize the 1913 Armory Show exhibition of modernist painting. Sloan also served as president of the Society of Independent Artists.
In 1919, influenced by Robert Henri, he traveled to Santa Fe for the first time and became active in the art colony there. He spent summers in the Southwest for the next 30 years. Sloan also served as President of the Exposition of Indian Tribal Arts in the 1930s and lobbied the Society of Independent Artists to include work by Native Americans in their exhibitions. Sloan also taught at the Art Students League, where his students included Reginald Marsh, Raphael Soyer, and Alexander Calder.Condition
