Evans, Walker
American
American, 1903 - 1975
Walker Evans (November 3, 1903 – April 10, 1975) was an American photographer and photojournalist best known for his work for the Resettlement Administration and the Farm Security Administration (FSA) documenting the effects of the Great Depression. Evans published his first photos at the age of 27. Much of Evans' New Deal work uses the large format, 8 × 10-inch (200×250 mm) view camera. He said that his goal as a photographer was to make pictures that are "literate, authoritative, transcendent". Many of his works are in the permanent collections of museums and have been the subject of retrospectives at such institutions as the Metropolitan Museum of Art or the George Eastman Museum.

Evelyn Statsinger
Evelyn Statsinger (1927–2016) was a multidisciplinary American artist. Born and raised in Brooklyn, she moved to Chicago in the mid-1940s and remained there for the rest of her life. Statsinger earned her BA in art education at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC) in 1949 after short stints at the Art Students League and the University of Toledo. While still a student at SAIC she found early success in the Exhibition Momentum salons—a series of exhibitions that took place from 1948 through 1957 and included artist Josef Albers, architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, and art critic Clement Greenburg, among others, on its three-person jury. This helped lead to her first solo exhibition at the Art Institute of Chicago in 1952. Often identified with the Monster Roster group, Statsinger features prominently in exhibitions and publications devoted to art in Chicago. Her work is included in the collections of the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Art Institute of Chicago and the Smithsonian American Art Museum.
