Maker/Artist
Demuth, Charles
American painter, 1883-1935
Demuth retained a deep attachment to Lancaster, Pennsylvania, where he was born, though he was one of the first American artists to embrace Modernism. He traveled to Europe in 1907-1908, 1912-1914, and 1921. On these trips he encountered Gertrude and Leo Stein, and Ezra Pound in Paris, and was influenced by Cubism.
