The Society of Western Artists began as a San Francisco branch of the Society for Sanity in Art, an American artist's society whose members strongly opposed all forms of modernism.[1] In 1939, it changed its name to the Society of Western Artists, in 2000 it changed its name to the Society of West-Coast Artists, and today is the largest society of representational artists in the western United States.[1]
