It reached its height of popularity from 1930 to 1935, as it was welcomed for its comforting scenes of the American heartland during the Great Depression. Despite some significant stylistic differences between popular artists, Regionalism was a fairly conservative and traditional style that appealed to the average American, while strictly opposing the perceived domination of French art.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>*</strong>Before World War II, the idea of Modernism was not clearly defined in American art. There was also a struggle to define this uniquely American type of art.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"></sup> <img data-attachment-id="3500" data-permalink="https://roadtripsandtinytrailers.com/2019/03/01/region-5-art-architecture-the-breadbasket-fun-facts/download-1-11/" data-orig-file="https://roadtripsandtinytrailers.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/download-1-2.jpe" data-orig-size="684,545" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{";aperture";:";0";,";credit";:";";,";camera";:";";,";caption";:";";,";created_timestamp";:";0";,";copyright";:";";,";focal_length";:";0";,";iso";:";0";,";shutter_speed";:";0";,";title";:";";,";orientation";:";0";}" data-image-title="download (1)" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://roadtripsandtinytrailers.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/download-1-2.jpe" data-large-file="https://roadtripsandtinytrailers.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/download-1-2.jpe" class=" wp-image-3500 alignright" src="https://roadtripsandtinytrailers.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/download-1-2.jpe" alt="download (1)" width="269" height="215" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>*</strong>On the path to determining what American art would be, some American artists rejected the modern trends emanating from the <a title="Armory Show" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armory_Show" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Armory Show</a> and European influences. By rejecting European abstract styles, American artists chose to adopt a new style which portrayed American urban and rural scenes.</p>

At the time, the United States was still a heavily agricultural nation, with a much smaller portion of its population living in industrial cities.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>*</strong>American Regionalism is best known through its 3 favorite artists: Grant Wood, Thomas Hart Benton, and John Steuart Curry. All three studied art in Paris, but devoted their lives to creating a truly American form of art. They believed that the solution to urban problems in American life was for the United States to return to its rural, agricultural roots.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>*</strong>Regionalism has had a strong and lasting influence on popular culture, particularly in America. It has given America some of its most iconic pieces of art and illustration that symbolize the country.</p>

Structure and materials rather than artistic constructions, and the rational and efficient use of space. It reconstructs the way humans lived in and used the natural environment, whether buildings or landscapes.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">The Breadbasket States of the Midwest are the birthplace of American Modernism, and offers a rich history of architectural styles. In many of these styles the pioneering spirit lives on and continues to create harmony with natural surroundings, natural materials, structure and creativity.</p>
