“This is a city rich in history, at least in American terms,’ says Timothy Rub, Director and Chief Executive Officer of the Philadelphia Museum of Art. ‘The historical and contemporary interweave in all sorts of fascinating ways. In terms of art, there are several museums’ worth of work to inspire the new generations of creative people coming through’.”
I had a wonderful time last night at the VIP opening of N.C. Wyeth: New Perspectives at the Brandywine River Museum of Art. In attendance was Bo Bartlett, Betsy Eby, Mary Page Evans, ‘The’ Helga, among others. The installation is stunning and is in conjunction with the N.C. Wyeth: Painter and Illustrator exhibit at the Somerville Manning Gallery. Both exhibitions are up all summer.
In high heels I might add.
New art supplies are as exciting as freshly cut flowers from the yard.
