Welcome to the United States Pavilion. We are proud to take part in this exposition, the first to be held in Asia. Like Japan, America is a Pacific nation, and it is as a friend and neighbor that we wish to express our sympathy with the high theme chosen for the fair. Progress and Harmony for Mankind have always been matters of central hope and concern for all Americans. Our own exhibits fall under the broad heading "Images of America."They attempt to convey an impression of the beauty and riches of our land, and a sense of the spirit that moves us today as it once moved our ancestors. As a people, we respect life and we exult in its possibilities. Thus there may be seen beneath this vast roof a mixture of the profound and the purely fascinating. Its variety is that of our country itself, and its promise larger yet-a confirmation of our collective faith in humanity. I am pleased to welcome to this Pavilion everyone who shares that faith.

Andre Kertesz Ten Photographers 7;.,,J-'v·n-'f·1 Huge rear-lit transparencies by ten of America's most perceptive photographers-a panorama of landscape, lifestyles and faces­ introduce visitors to the United States exhibition. All 120 photographs are in black and white rather than in color to emphasize and individualize their documentary quality. Each photographer represented in this exhibit has addressed himself to the task of interpreting in visual terms an aspect of American reality which has been particularly accessible to his own sensibility. Neither individually nor cumulatively do they show the whole truth. except in the sense meant by Ernest Hemingway, who said "any part you make will represent the whole. if it is made truly." • Diane Arbus 7;11nfigt~tt-c, ii'§l=A0(l)t.J\ T J 1J n-Cii}:UJl,,•Wl.~:hHl--:,t2+A(l)'.Jf~*t.i' ~h t2'.lfJi-c-t. *Jl&(l)t/7 Ai:fft~ -::>ltf~T} I) t.,(l)tjt*~·Jia\JJI.:, ~i.sijt,\:, Mm>;: 1:·(7):i;,:~iJ'*t.J,t,(l)fll\aJJc:· fl~. .., Lt.ll~tl -c,,;t-t. :'C/lllc:·12otll<h6.:t1. t,(l) ~~Ii, f(l) n ·.,_ ;i ;,,f 1J-·t'!:t!~JvllTM2o>')I:, h~·1:n7-·c-1g· < s,\1;11: L c<h 'J it'. ~¥i*l±i//i .., (l)!:il,1ttt1=is'i1:1! <IDF.z. 1., -r ;1 1J n (7) JJl.~(7)- iiiit1M#(l)f ·,+-c·~JJl.L -c,,;t-t.

American Painting In contrast to the monochromatic scenes of contemporary America in the Ten Photographers exhibit. the painted images of the past are offered in a selection of realist American paintings. The twenty-one pictures exhibited in the United States Pavilion were selected from the Metropolitan Museum of Art collections to survey briefly from the eighteenth into the twentieth century some significant aspects of American realist painting in portraiture. genre, landscape and city scenes. The artists of this group are distinguished for their penetrating views of the American experience and mood. +AC7)'.1,'.1l;%< 1;tJ:JH\'.17)7 / IJ ;/J'2'EJ~-c· iV'Jl.L ""(C>,;,17) 1: ( r,,-..;: , '.7T~iJR[jljj%<1i, ;_@1'{(7)7 / IJ ;/J i~:f~WiJ•l.::-RJJl.
