There should be something on how "Ashcan School" started out as a kind of derogatory term... AnonMoos ( talk) 14:13, 4 March 2019 (UTC)
I'm not sure what should be said in the article. Perhaps:
"Ashcan school" is a tongue-in-cheek reference to other "schools of art". Its origin is in a complaint found in a publication called The Masses alleging that there were too many "pictures of ashcans and girls hitching up their skirts on Horatio Street." The artists had already been working together for 8 years at that point. They were amused by the reference and the name stuck" [2]
I would place it as a second paragraph in the Origin and development section. Pinging AnonMoos. Bus stop ( talk) 16:45, 10 March 2019 (UTC)
