註釋
Over the past decade the Greenville County Museum of Art in South Carolina, led by Executive Director Thomas W. Styron, has built a collection that surveys the major issues in American art history through examples of painting and sculpture with connections to the South's twelve states (plus the District of Columbia): each artist was either born in the South, worked or taught there, or portrayed a subject of significance to Southern culture or history. Greenville County Museum of Art: The Southern Collection is thus a beautiful and stimulating survey of the history of both regional and national trends in American art from a fresh perspective. The 127 artists in The Southern Collection include such eighteenth- and nineteenth-century masters as Washington Allston, Thomas Sully, Martin Johnson Heade, Frank Duveneck, and Thomas Anshutz, such modernists as Max Weber, Patrick Henry Bruce, George Bellows, Georgia O'Keeffe, Charles Burchfield, Morris Graves, Josef Albers, Jacob Lawrence, and Arshile Gorky; and such contemporaries as Morris Louis, Kenneth Noland, Sam Gilliam, Red Grooms, Jack Beal, Philip Guston, Jasper Johns, James Rosenquist, Romare Bearden, and Christo. Equally fascinating are the works by an inclusive array of less-well-known artists.
