California Art Club
The California Art Club (CAC), founded in 1909, is one of the oldest and most active arts organizations in California. It celebrated its centennial in the spring of 2010.〔See California Art Club web site for report on centennial Activities.〕 The California Art Club originally evolved from the Painters Club of Los Angeles. The new organization was more inclusive, as it accepted women, sculptors and out of state artists. Most of the major early California painters belonged to the CAC, including William Wendt (1865–1946), Edgar Payne (1883–1947), Franz Bischoff (1864–1929).〔These artists are referenced on the CAC history portion of the California Art Club web site as well as in Eden Hughes, Artists in California biographical dictionary.〕 As the members of the first generation of California Plein-Air Painters aged and died, the membership was filled by a handful of younger professional painters, along with amateur painters and commercial artists.
Today its membership consists of representational artists and sculptors, but it is broadly inclusive and includes many women painters as well as painters and sculptors who emigrated to the United States from Europe and Asia. The CAC hosts an annual Gold Medal Exhibition at the Pasadena Museum of California Art each year along with a number of other smaller public and special museum exhibitions.〔News of this annual event is on the CAC web site and in the color catalogs listed as reference.〕 Headquartered in one of the large bungalows that was part of the historic Vista del Arroyo Hotel in Pasadena, the California Art Club has a number of chapters throughout California.〔See chapter list below and on CAC web site under "Chapters" heading.〕
==Origins of the CAC==
The history of the California Art Club is intertwined with that of the Painters Club of Los Angeles, which was founded in March 1906 by a group of California's early professional artists in order to arrange exhibitions and further the fine arts in the Southland. After several years and a number of successful exhibitions it became apparent to the members that the scope of the organization, which was open only to male painters, was too limited and a consensus arose to dissolve the organization in order to form one that was wider in scope.〔See CAC web site, "History of the CAC"〕
