Description

January 16, 1879 Behind an innocuous door on Tenth Street, past a labyrinth of stairs, lay something I hadn’t seen in years: a proper artist’s studio. Art on the walls! Paint ready to be laid. Canvas waiting for dreams to be applied. But today’s agenda was not art. It was revolution. I had been put in touch with a group of painters, sculptors, and artists of all stripes, known only as The Movement. They assemble weekly in the studio of a man named William Merritt Chase, a bespectacled gentleman who paints in a rigorous way I appreciate. He stood in the middle of the room. A well-positioned candle turned him into a dark silhouette. He was both clearly a natural leader and the leader. As he talked, we all listened. Today he preached The Plan. The way that we would move forward. Violence. Sabotage. Disruption. Those were all table stakes. Where we would really strike is the heart of our oppressors. The one soft spot they’ve shown us. The place they appear most irrational. We will take their love of art and use it to annihilate them. -CV
