  • Perspective: the Salmagundi Club
    WESTERN VIsta DI CLUB N GU ma L A HE S PERSPECTIVE: T OF sy E THE SaLMAGUNDI CLUB T OUR C S With a membership that spans from Thomas Moran to GE Scott Christensen, New York’s Salmagundi Club is a national treasure ma © ALL I WRIttEN BY Allen Morris Jones Western art as we know it now was effectively born in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, a period wherein a handful of painters and sculptors took up their tools and trekked west, making pilgrimages to Wyoming, New Mexico and Arizona. Well-educated in the great traditions, they brought with them the visual vocabulary that was then being used in Paris, in London, in New York. Thomas Moran visited Yellowstone in 1871, then the Grand Canyon in 1873. Ernest Blumenschein threw a wheel in Taos in 1898, and E. Irving Couse bumped into Blumenschein, Joseph Henry Sharp and Bert Phillips in France, where he listened to them rave about the desert. Reading the biographies of these extraordinary painters, it soon strikes you that they had at least one thing in common, that the name of a single august club keeps cropping up. One of the oldest continuing art societies in America, the Salmagundi Club is housed in a beautiful four-sto- ry brownstone on Manhattan’s lower Fifth Avenue. An exhibition space, a restaurant, a library, a bar and a bil- liards room, here is a New York club in a faded tradition, a harkening back to those days when the word salon meant more than a place where you could go to get your hair cut.

Two centuries ago the definition seemed simple, but today the genre has expanded beyond the parameters of 19th-century Westward Expansion, beyond cowboys and Indians and vast landscapes. Today hundreds of artists push the boundaries of what constitutes Western art. Brian Dippie, art historian at British Columbia’s University of Victoria, states controversially in his 2011 article, “What We Talk About When We Talk About Western Art,” in The Literature and Culture of the American West, edited by Nicolas S.
