1971
M. Knoedler and Co. presented What Is American in American Art in New York in 1971. The exhibition benefited the Museum of American Folk Art; the commercial gallery was its actual host. Documented examples include George Bellows’s Club Night (1907; oil on canvas) and John Toole’s Skating Scene (c. 1835; oil on canvas). The reconstructed checklist is partial, and exact opening and closing days remain unverified.
