Biography (adapted from artprice.com) One of the ‘black gang’ in Phila. with Henri, Luks, Shinn and Glackens (all of whom were working as artist-reporters). By 1904 all five were in NYC and by 1908 they formed “The Eight” later known as “Ashcan School.” Sloan painted his first urban scene on his own observations of the city streets, a method he practiced and advocated throughout his career.
