D.C. 20560 www.aaa.si.edu/askus Transcript Interview EG:: EUGENIE GERSHOY MM:: MARY McCHESNEY RM:: ROBERT McCHESNEY (Miss Gershoy was on the WPA sculpture project in New York City) MM:: First I'd like to ask you, Johnny -- isn't that your nickname? -- where were you born? EG:: In Russia. MM:: What year? EG:: 1901. MM:: What town were you born in? EG:: In a wonderful little place called Krivoi Rog. It's a metal-lurgical center that was very important in the second World War. A great deal of fighting went on there, and it figured very largely in the German-Russian campaign. MM:: When did you come to the United States? EG:: 1903. MM:: You were saying that you came to the United States in 1903, so you were only two years old. EG:: Yes. MM:: Where did you receive your art training? EG:: Very briefly, I had a couple of scholarships to the Art Students League. MM:: In New York City? EG:: Yes. And then I got married and went to Woodstock and worked there by myself. John Flanagan, the sculptor, was a great friend of ours, and he was up there, too. I was very much influenced by him. He used to take the boulders in the field and make his sculptures of them, and also the wood that was indigenous to the neighborhood -- ash, pine, apple wood, and so forth. -

He studied art with John E. Thompson at the Albright Art Institute in Buffalo, New York, and taught at the University of Colorado in Boulder. In 1920, during a break from teaching, Bakos visited Walter Mruk, a childhood friend and artist who was living in Santa Fe. During his stay he exhibited some paintings together with Mruk at the Museum of Fine Arts in Santa Fe. Gustave Baumann (1881–1971) Baumann was one of the leading figures of the color-woodcut revival in America. Born in Magdeburg, Germany, Baumann moved to the U.S. at the age of 10 and by 17, attended night classes at the Art Institute of Chicago. After spending time in Brown County, Ind., as a member of the Brown County Art Colony, Baumann headed to the Southwest in 1918. He found Taos to be too crowded and social but eventually ended up settling in Santa Fe, where he became known as a master of woodcuts, while also producing oils and sculpture. Tom Benrimo (1887 – 1958) A self-taught artist, Benrimo was born in San Francisco and lived there until the San Francisco earthquake and fire of 1906 destroyed his home. Relocating to New York with his family, he worked as a scenic designer for theatrical shows and created illustrations for various advertising companies. -

From early Taos founders to artists who were revolutionary for their time not only for trendsetting Taos Moderns, the diversified community served introducing a new, locally inspired color palette, but for as an escape and a rebellion from established coastal art softening the Wild West mentality of American art. “Up scenes and busy city centers.
