 NGA - Modern Art and America: Anderson Galleries & Intimate Gallery
Stieglitz structured the Intimate Gallery as a cooperative space to encourage a sense of community among artists, to diminish the idea of art as a commodity, and to establish a more personal relationship between artist and patron.
These elements combined to give her paintings an ambiguous quality: they are clearly derived from a vision related to photography, yet strangely and often elusively different from it.
In Alfred Stieglitz Presents Seven Americans, at the Anderson Galleries in the spring of 1925, the photographer united for the first time the artists whom he would champion for the rest of his life.
