Society of Western Artists (1939–present)

The Society of Western Artists began as a San Francisco branch of the Society for Sanity in Art, an American artist's society whose members strongly opposed all forms of modernism.[1] In 1939, it changed its name to the Society of Western Artists, and today is the largest society of representational artists in the western United States.[1]
