| | Ashcan School - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The Ashcan School was a realist artistic movement that came into prominence in the United States in the early 20th century, best known for works capturing scenes of daily life in poor urban neighborhoods. |
 | | The Eight exhibited as a group for the first and only time at the Macbeth Gallery in 1908, but they are still remembered as a group, despite the fact that their work was very diverse in terms of style and subject matter. |
 | | The Ashcan School was not an organized group, but rather the term was applied later to a group of artists, including Henri, Glackens, Shinn, Sloan, Luks, George Bellows (a Henri student), and others, who painted urban subject matter, primarily New York's poorer neighborhoods. |
