I have come to the conclusion that the world will never be the same. But that's partly because we live in linear time, and things happen that make it impossible, for worse and for better, for anything to stay the same.
But I still long for the days of the WPA Federal Art Project, the work that it generated for unemployed artists, and the artwork from the time that remains (and has sometimes undergone restoration).
This article from Racket discusses WPA works in Minnesota, and the artists who made them.
The WPA also employed photographers. Michael posts about the photographs from the NYC Municipal Archives collection every Sunday. If you follow the above link, be prepared for deep dives into details of life in New York City between 1939 and 1941.
