The Stieglitz Circle at The Phillips Collection: In The American Grain is drawn from the Phillips Collection's permanent holdings, and includes more than forty paintings by American Modernists Arthur Dove, Marsden Hartley, John Marin, and Georgia O'Keeffe, as well as photographs by Alfred Stieglitz. On view at the Norton Museum of Art from February 19 through May 8, 2005, this stunning exhibition explores not only the works of these innovative modern artists, but also their relationships with gallerist Alfred Stieglitz and collector Duncan Phillips. The members of "Stieglitz's Circle" were frequently inspired by America's distinctive landscape, and depicted its endless variety in bold forms and vivid colors. Also on view during this exhibition will be complementary paintings from the Norton's permanent collection, two each by Dove and O'Keeffe, and one each by Hartley and Marin.

This exhibition has been organized by The Phillips Collection, Washington, D.C. Support of the local presentation is generously provided by William R. and Norma Kline Tiefel. Media support is provided by the Palm Beach Post, Palm Beach Daily News, WPTV NewsChannel 5, and WXEL 90.7 FM.
