Where is Grant Wood from?
1 Answer
Grant Wood is from Iowa. The American artist was born in Anamosa, Iowa, in 1891 and grew up in nearby Cedar Rapids. Unlike other American regionalist painters like John Steuart Curry and Thomas Hart Benton, Wood never moved East but remained in the Middle West, where he found inspiration for his paintings of prosperous farms and people reflecting idealized American values. He died in Iowa City, Iowa, in 1942, at the age of 51. Find an extraordinary collection of art for sale on 1stDibs.
