      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Charles Sheeler was an influential painter who helped to found the Modernist movement in the United States. Sheeler was born and raised in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Sheeler was interested in art from an early age, and enrolled at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts (PAFA). Sheeler had the privilege of studying under William Merritt Chase, who instructed several prominent artists of the twentieth century.</p>
      <p  class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_l-z/sheeler/2.sheeler.jpg" alt="Sheeler, River Rouge Plant, 1932" width="auto"></p>
      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">River Rouge Plant, 1932</div>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">After completing his studies at PAFA, Sheeler travelled to Europe. Sheeler gravitated to the art scene in Paris at a time when Cubism was the greatest trend. Sheeler was attracted to the avant-garde styles he experienced abroad, but did not think he could receive a livable income making experimental paintings. When Sheeler returned to the United States, he started his own business in commercial photography. Sheeler, who did not have a background as a photographer, taught himself how to use a Brownie and developed professional techniques.</p>
      <p  class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_l-z/sheeler/3.sheeler.jpg" alt="Sheeler, Upper Deck"></p>
      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Upper Deck</div>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Sheeler often retreated to a 19th century, farmhouse in Doylestown, Pennsylvania. The house was used as a studio, and the setting for numerous photography projects. Sheeler began painting in precisionist, linear fashion, which complimented his photographs. After being hired as a photographer for Ford Motor Co., Sheeler concentrated on depicting machinery and industrial architecture. Sheeler depicted industrial structures as if they were the new concrete temples of America. While the paintings appeared to be anti-humanist, Sheeler would often include a tiny, obscured figure in his compositions, dwarfed by the surrounding industrial world.</p>
      <p  class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_l-z/sheeler/4.sheeler.jpg" alt="Sheeler, On Shaker Theme #2, 1956" width="auto"></p>
      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">On Shaker Theme #2, 1956</div>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">When Sheeler enjoyed his time in Doylestown, he spent many years living in New York City. In 1920 Sheeler collaborated with the photographer, Paul Strand on the film, Mannhatta. The film was a study and commentary on urban high-rise environments, specifically portraying Manhattan. The film was adapted from Walt Whitman writings.</p>
      <p  class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_l-z/sheeler/5.sheeler.jpg" alt="Sheeler, Canyons, 1951" width="auto" height="auto"></p>
      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Canyons, 1951</div>
      <p  class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_l-z/sheeler/8.sheeler.jpg" alt="Sheeler, Church Street El, 1920" width="auto"></p>
      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Church Street El, 1920</div>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">In 1938, Sheeler was commissioned by Fortune magazine to create a series of images documenting power stations across the country. Sheeler travelled to industrial power zones, producing a series of six paintings called Power. Among the most impressive of these images may have been the turbines in Brooklyn, New York at the world’s largest steam power plant.</p>
      <p  class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_l-z/sheeler/6.sheeler.jpg" alt="Sheeler, Black and white photograph" width="auto" height="auto"></p>

      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Water, 1945</div>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">In Sheeler’s photographs and paintings, industrial America is portrayed as extraordinary and majestic, rather than a tragic age of destruction. Sheeler’s paintings impressed both the American working class and company owners, experiencing the industrial revolution first-hand.</p>
