A
Journey Through Art with W. H. Johnson
William Johnson
(1901-1970), a major figure in 20th-century American Art, studied
at the National Academy of Design in New York. Prior to World
War II he spent time learning from European artists in southern
France. You are invited to journey through a chronological timeline
of Johnson’s works. In this series of colorful paintings, you
can observe how his style evolved. The “Fighters for Freedom” collection
depicts famous men and women who were leaders in the quest for
racial equality. In “Scenes from City Life and Country Life,” universal
themes are portrayed that touch the human spirit. Activities
for elementary students, such as creating a self-portrait, planning
a make-believe trip, or writing a story about one of the paintings,
accompany each page.
