运动中的女性:PAFA的150年女性艺术网络
PAFA has the remarkable distinction of actively promoting women artists since its first annual exhibition in 1811. 20世纪初,塞西莉亚·伯克斯(1855-1942), PAFA第一位专职女绘画教授, expressed the hope that the hour was near “when the term ‘Women in Art’ will be as strange-sounding a topic as ‘Men in Art’ would be now.” While this quote reveals much about the exciting developments of the professional ambitions and accomplishment of women artists in the late-19th and early-20th centuries, 求爱者的名言, indeed her very artistic reputation—nowhere near as well-known as her contemporary and rival Mary Cassatt (1844–1926)—reveal how far 学者hip has yet to advance in the study of American women artists. This exhibition and its accompanying catalog will introduce PAFA’s audiences to the networks of talented women artists and will include more than 80 works of art by more than 50 women artists working professionally in the American art world from PAFA’s founding in 1805 to the end of World War II.
The majority of the work will be from PAFA’s remarkable permanent collection, 包括最近的许多收购, 哪个被称赞了 纽约时报 and other notable publications for its pioneering leadership in collecting art by women. Complementing works from the permanent collection will be a selection of loans from local private and institutional collections. 许多作品都是由那个时代著名的女性创作的, 但后来被更知名的男性同事所取代. A significant goal of this exhibition is to inspire a new generation of visitors, 学者, 和收藏家欣赏女性艺术家. PAFA is particularly proud to feature paintings and sculptures by Laura Wheeler Waring (1887–1948) and May Howard Jackson (1877–1931), 他们是第一位在PAFA学习的非裔美国女性, 他的作品最近进入了永久收藏.
