The artists Joseph Glasco, Joseph McCullough, and Richard Diebenkorn were selected to represent East, Midwest, and West respectively.
"The colors are not pleasing, not the surfaces sensuous by our usual standards of aesthetics, but if the paintings appear chaotic they do not contain the disillusionment of Dada. They are created with complete, unhesitating confidence, and to the spectator who is willing to be a participant they are vigorous and exciting.” — Forbes Whiteside for Allen Memorial Art Museum Bulletin (1955)
