　　Many of these writers focused on city life and themes，such as poverty and family life in the new country.European influence meant something very different from it once had: artists' changed the core of American experience by incorporating their various immigrant origins into its cultural vision.During the 1920s and 1930s，a host of African American poets and novelists added their voices to this new American vision.

　　Visual artists of the early 20th century also began incorporating the many new sights and colors in these new city settings.Painters associated with a group known as The Eight，such as Robert Henri and John Sloan，portrayed the picturesque sights of the city，while later painters and photographers focused on the city's squalid aspects.Although nature remained a significant dimension of American culture，it was no longer at the heart of American culture.By the 1920s and 1930s few artists or writers considered nature the extraordinary basis of American cultural identity.
