Only in the past few months have ‘they gone to other places, after having digested and put to can- vas, paper, or copper plate the variety of tropical scenes and in- triguing subjects of the Isiand City. : The Art Colony was established when the rehabilitation program was first launched by the Florida Emergency Relief Administration in Key West. The work of the igroup was utilized in traveling exhibits, in bus stations, galleries, hotels, and similar places through- out the co and some of it found its into the exhibits of the Federal Treasury Depart- ment. \ Other paintings and etching | prints were reproduced on _ post ‘eards which are still being sold in the Island City, and still other work was used in two attractive tourist booklets produced by the Key West Administration. These j items will be part of the Key + West Exhibit in the Federal Art H Sent To Virgin Islands ; Avery Johnson, first artist to iget the Key West assignment, ‘was recently sent to the Virgin jIslands, where he is directing an art project of the U. S. Treasury \Department, whose purpose will ; be somewhat similar to that of \the Key West program. He wor jalmost entirely in water colors, and the visitors at the Jackson- , Ville Exhibit probably will be jstruck with the vivid colors he ses. He also has produced some ceptionally good etchings. Born in Illinois, Johnson studied at the Chicago Art Institute, exhibited at the Century of Progress position, and attained national attention during he Public Works ,of Art Program, carried on three | years ago. |" Stanley Wood was the second (artist to reach Key West. He is probably the most versatile of the ‘artists who were in the Island City and has worked in very nearly every phase of art, clearly indicating his ability in the field of applied arts. He has studied at Drexel and the Philadelphia School of Architec- jture, and taught at the California ‘College of Fine Arts. He has ‘been a frequent contributor to {Fortune Magazine. | The impression so many lay- ;men have that artists live in jworld apart, was completely dis- !pelled in Key West by Adrian : Dornbush—as well as by many of the others who took an active part in the civie life of the com- Dornbush directed staging of the foperetta, “Pirates of Penzance”, jand participated in many other | Similar activities in Key “Safety organizations over theyen subway journeys, but that’s as His ability and willingness were j rewarded when he was called to | Washington, May 1935, to a posi- ition on the staff of Rexford Tug- j well and the Resettlement Ad- {ministration.

Another called to the Virgin Islands to join the staff of the Treasury Art Project, is F. Town- send Morgan, formerly of Phila- delphia. Morgan works entirely in the etching field, and his pro- duction, “Key West”, won the J. Frederick Taleott Prize at annual exhibit of the 3 Society of Etchers in N last November. He was, for a while, director of the art work in Key West. Alfred D. Crimi has worked in as far-flung points on the globe as perhaps,any of the artists who were assigned to Key West. Born in Italy, he studied and painted in Rome, later maintaining studies in Seattle, Washington, and New York City. ing permanent contribution wa: produce two life-size mura the walls of the Key West Tropi- eal Aquarium.
