Description
WPA Rhythm Band. The purpose of the WPA program was to create paying jobs for the unemployed at every skill level. The WPA allowed many artists to work full time on their craft for the first time. Many works were produced at the Harlem Arts Community Center in NYC. The WPA provided sophisticated equipment that supported the development of printmaking. The African-American artist Dox Thrash developed a new lithographic technique, the Carbonrundum print, which contributed to the popularity of printmaking in the US. Elizabeth Olds, circa 1935-43 (cropped and cleaned).
