American Masters is a yearly exhibit organized by the Salmagundi Club in NYC. I’m remiss in not mentioning this year’s earlier as it ends on October 24, 2014.
For those who can’t see the exhibit in person, there is a nice selection of the work online. I’ve pulled out a sampling for the images here.

I swear, Charley, seeing a bastion like the Salmagundi Club display a rock solid exhibit of Capital “A” Art, brazenly declare it to be by Capital “M” Masters, and blatantly ignore the godless forces of modernism… I swear that there are tears of joy in my eyes. I only wish I could see the exhibition. It looks Grand! I’ll have to settle for Hokusai at the Grand Palais last Friday. Peace, Jim (|:{>
Terrific show, true masters. Having not visited the Club before, I found it astonishing, especially all the other paintings that were being auctioned that were not part of the exhibit. Very interesting old building worth seeing in its own right.
Gee, Jim, must be difficult having to settle for being in Paris (grin).
Glad you like the posts.
For notice of other exhibitions of superb representational art, see Underpaintings Magazine from Matthew Innis.
Thanks, Bill. I have yet to make it to the club myself. On my already too long “Next time I’m in NYC” list.
I’m really thrilled to be part of that show, and the organizer, Tim Newton, does it as a pure labor of love to benefit the Salmagundi Club. The gallery space has been renovated and looks really superb. If you go, don’t miss the work by early members in the stairway and the wonderful old bar downstairs.
