The Streetfare Journal produced in New York and San Francisco by Transportation Displays Incorporated from 1984 to 1997, was actually not a newsprint journal but "published" bus placards, eventually numbering 102 posters, "arguably the largest and most successful public art program in U.S. history, delivering striking combinations of literature and visual art to an estimated 15 million riders daily in 16 major cities, including New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Washington D.C, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Phoenix, New Orleans, Fort Worth and Fort Lauderdale.
 From a layout composed of typeset words on a white background, later issues paired stanzas of verse with paintings or photographs by noted visual artists, such as American painters Kenneth Noland and Clyfford Still and the English David Hockney, as well as photographers Mary Ellen Mark and Dorothea Lange.
 Texts in the series featured established American poets like Charles Bukowski, Langston Hughes, Thomas McGrath, Carl Sandburg, and William Carlos Williams, as well as newcomers like Ho Xuan Huong, John Kinsella, Joaquín Pasos and Daisy Zamora. Willard Metcalf
Willard Leroy Metcalf (July 1, 1858 – March 9, 1925) was an American artist born in Lowell, Massachusetts.
 He studied at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, and later attended Académie Julian, Paris.
 After early figure-painting and illustration, he became prominent as a landscape painter.
 He was one of the Ten American Painters who in 1897 seceded from the Society of American Artists.
 For some years he was an instructor in the Women's Art School, Cooper Union, New York, and in the Art Students League, New York.
 In 1893 he became a member of the American Watercolor Society, New York.
 Generally associated with American Impressionism, he is also remembered for his New England landscapes and involvement with the Old Lyme Art Colony at Old Lyme, Connecticut and his influential years at the Cornish Art Colony. N. C. Wyeth
Newell Convers Wyeth (October 22, 1882 – October 19, 1945), known as N. C. Wyeth, was an American artist and illustrator.
 He was the pupil of artist Howard Pyle and became one of America's greatest illustrators.
 During his lifetime, Wyeth created over 3,000 paintings and illustrated 112 books, 25 of them for "Scribner's", the Scribner Classics, which is the work for which he is best known.
 The first of these, "Treasure Island", was one of his masterpieces and the proceeds paid for his studio.
 Wyeth was a realist painter just as the camera and photography began to compete with his craft.
 Sometimes seen as melodramatic, his illustrations were designed to be understood quickly.
 Wyeth, who was both a painter and an illustrator, understood the difference, and said in 1908, "Painting and illustration cannot be mixed—one cannot merge from one into the other."
 He is notably the father of painter Andrew Wyeth and the grandfather of Jamie Wyeth, both celebrated American painters. List of artists in the Armory Show
The 1913 Armory Show contained approximately 1300 works by 300 artists.
 Many of the original works have been lost and some of the artists have been forgotten.
 The list of artists in the Armory Show, while not complete, includes nearly all the artists from the United States and Europe who were exhibited in the Armory Show of 1913.
 The list is largely drawn from the catalog of the 1963 exhibition, "1913 Armory Show 50th Anniversary Exhibition", organized by the Munson-Williams-Proctor Arts Institute.
 Many exhibitions have been held in the vast spaces of U.S. National Guard armories, but "the" Armory Show refers to the International Exhibition of Modern Art that was organized by the Association of American Painters and Sculptors and opened in New York City's 69th Regiment Armory, on Lexington Avenue between 25th and 26th Streets, on February 17, 1913, and ran to March 15.
 It became a legendary watershed event in the history of American art, introducing astonished New Yorkers, accustomed to realistic art, to modern art.
 The show served as a catalyst for American artists, who became more independent and created their own artistic language. Ian Scott (artist)
Ian Christopher Scott (20 April 1945 – 27 June 2013) was a New Zealand painter.
 From the late 1960s, his work was significant for pursuing an international scope and vision within a local context previously dominated by regionalist and national concerns.
 Over the course of his career he consistently sought to push his work towards new possibilities for painting, in the process moving between abstraction and representation, and using controversial themes and approaches, while maintaining a highly personal and recognisable style.
 His work spans a wide range of concerns including the New Zealand landscape (especially West Auckland), popular imagery (particularly the representation of the female figure), appropriation and art historical references.
 Scott's paintings are distinctive for their intensity of colour and light.
 His approach to painting is aligned with the modernist tradition, responding to the formal standards set by the American painters Morris Louis, Kenneth Noland and Jules Olitski.
