Note: Alice F. Mason, not to be confused with Alice Trumbull Mason, exhibited in the Chicago area from circa 1937 into the 1950s. She exhibited both at the Art Institute of Chicago and in the important protest, Exhibition Momentum, Her title for this work is taken from Leaves of Grass by Walt Whitman."When the Art Institute of Chicago banned undergraduate works from eligibility for its annual ?Artists of Chicago and Vicinity? exhibition, Exhibition Momentum was born to give those young artists a place to show their work. In the inaugural catalogue, the introduction states that Exhibition Momentum will aid in ?retaining artists in Chicago who might ordinarily be forced to seek recognition elsewhere.? Indeed, many young artists trained in Chicago moved away soon after their schooling to seek greater exposure in New York. Ironically, Leon Golub, one of the founders of Exhibition Momentum, was among them." -Archives of American Art
