DUTCH UTOPIA AMERICAN ARTISTS IN HOLLAND, 1880-1914: **Showcasing more than seventy paintings from public and private collections throughout the United States and Europe, Dutch Utopia: American artists in Holland, 1880-1914 explores the work of forty-three American artists drawn to Holland during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Escaping from the rapid urbanization of their time, these artists established colonies in six communities in the Netherlands-Dordrecht, Egmond, Katwijk, Laren, Rijsoord, and Valedam-with all but Dordrecht being small, preindustrial villages. Inspired by their pastoral surroundings as well as the great traditions of seventeenth-century Dutch art and the contemporary Hague School, these American artists created visions of Dutch society underpinned by a nostalgic yearning for a premodern way of life. Some even alluded to America´s most colonial Dutch heritage, exploring shared histories and cultural connections between the two countries. Organized by the Telfair Museum of Art in Savannah, Georgia, Dutch Utopia examines Americans´artists attraction to Holland through six pivotal themes: the influence of seventeenth century Dutch painting: the impact of the Hague School: antimodernism and the American Progressive Movement: points of convergence in national identities: the proliferation of artists colonies in Holland: and the popular construction of **Dutchness** beyond the stereotýpes of wooden shoes and windmills. Dutch Utopia includes works by artists who remain celebrated today, such as Robert Henri, William Merritt Chase, and John Singer Sargent, and by painters admired in their own time, but less well-known now. These includ accomplish women such as Elizabeth Nourse and Anna Stanley, as well as George Hitchcock, Gari Melchers, and Walter MacEwen, who built international reputations with Salon pictures of Dutch landscapes and costumed figures. These artists were among hundreds of Americans who traveled to the Netherlands between 1880 and 1914 to paint and to study. Some lived in Holland for decades, while others stayed only a week or two, but most passed quickly through the major cities to small rural communities, where they created picturesque idylls on canvas**, the editors.
