What does American art look like? The answer has changed dramatically over the past 200 years.

"American Made: Paintings and Sculpture from the DeMell Jacobsen Collection" brings together works by some of the most celebrated names in American art, including John Singer Sargent, Mary Cassatt, Thomas Cole, Robert Henri, Elizabeth Catlett, Charles Alston, and Sarah Miriam Peale.

Travel from the portraits of early America to sweeping 19th-century landscapes, lavish still lifes, astonishing trompe l’oeil paintings designed to fool the eye, and the bold experimentation of 20th-century Modernism and Realism. Along the way, discover how generations of artists responded to a country—and an art world—continually changing around them.

See how portraitists captured the personalities and aspirations of their subjects, while landscape painters helped shape how Americans viewed the natural world. Watch the everyday become extraordinary as flowers, fruit, and familiar objects are rendered with remarkable detail. Then see the rules begin to change as artists experiment with abstraction, color, form, and new ways of depicting American life.

Individual works from the DeMell Jacobsen Collection have appeared at institutions ranging from The Metropolitan Museum of Art to the Smithsonian American Art Museum, but "American Made" marks the first exhibition to bring highlights from this significant collection together in one place.

"American Made" was curated by Todd Herman, PhD, President and CEO of The Mint Museum; Kevin Sharp, Director of the Dixon Gallery and Gardens; and Jonathan Stuhlman, PhD, Senior Curator of American Art at The Mint Museum.
