Excerpt from The Story of the Armory Show It is necessary to realize that at this time most of the younger American artists, especially the progressive ones, had no place to show their wares.

Perhaps it would be fitting at this point to give credit to two American women. Mrs. Ger trude V. Whitney and Mrs. Clara Potter Davidge. Mrs. Davidge conducted a small gallery at 305 Madison Avenue of which Henry Fitch Taylor, a painter, was the director. Mrs. Whitney, I believe, supplied most of the wherewithal.

Finally on December 14, 1911, we agreed to take action. Additional artists were invited. On December 16th the group had grown to sixteen members. Meetings were con tinued and new members added until the list looked sufficiently large and representative to answer the purpose.
