Prizes and Statistics on 154th Annual Exhibition
at the Pennsylvania Academy
The 154th Annual Exhibition opened by private view last night (January 23rd), and
will open to the public on Sunday, January ~5th to remain through March 1st, at The
Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. It is held with the collaboration of the
Philadelphia Water Color Club and is the opening event in the 1959 Philadelphia Arts
Festival. This year the Exhibition is given over to water colors, print~ and
drawings.
It has a two-part organization: works included by invitat ion and those chosen by
the Jury of Selection composed of John Maxwell, Hobson Pittman, and Gabor Peterdi.
The Jury looked at over 2270 works submitted by 954 artists from all parts of the
country, and accepted 419 works by 326 artists (each could submit up to 3 works in
the same or various media.) In comparison with tyro years ago (the last water color,
print and drawing show here) thiS, according to Joseph T. Fraser, Jr., Director of
the Academy, is a very high proportion of the work that came in. The invited section
this year represents less than one-third of all work shown - 56 artists with 19S
works. By limiting the number of invited artists, more opportunity naturally was
given the juried artist, and, as you will note below, with but one exception, all
prizes and "mentions" went to juried work. Artists from 32 states, the District of
Columbia, and Hawaii are represented, with almost half of that number exhibiting
in an Academy 1IAnnual" for the first time.

Mr. Fraser especially commended the jury members for their long hours of work, and
their very earnest and catholic approach to their task. Just as the Academy and
the Water Color Club tried to cover a wide approach in the invited work, so did the
Jury achieve a similar result in the work chosen by them, which has provided a show
inclUding everything from the very abstract to the completely academic.
The Academy has announced eo purchase fund of up to $2000.00 to acquire work from the
show for its permanent collection. Purchases will be announce d during the
exhibition.
Prizes were awarded by the Jury of Selection, unless otherwise indicated, as follows:

Four Hands at One Piano and Mixed Vocal Quartet
Because it is a medium rarely heard anywhere in public today, and due to their
very considerable popular appeal as presented by Vladimir and Eleanor Sokoloff,
programs of original works for four hands at one piano have come to be an annual
feature in the concert series at The Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts.

Mr.

and Mrs. Sokoloff will be heard this year on Friday evening, February 20th, at 8:30.
The first part of their program will include "Six Variations on the Song
'I Think of Theel" by Beethoven, and "Divertissement ~ la Hongroise, Opus 54"
by Schubert.
The period following intermission will be given over entirely to a performance
of Brahms' Liebeslieder Waltzer, for four voices and four hands at one piano.

This

much-loved but seldom-performed work will be given in its entirety (some 18 songs )by:
Benita Valente, soprano
Marlene Kleinman, alto

Tatsuo Hoshina, tenor
Barry Hanner, bass
Mr. and Mrs. Sokoloff

Miss Valente appeared earlier this season at a youth Concert with the Philadelphia Orchestra, and Mr. Hanner in the regular series.

Miss Kleinman is alto soloist

at the Church of the SaviOur and was soloist at the Centennial Ball for the Academy
of Music in 1957.

Mr. Hoshina, a new-comer to Philadelphia, is tenor soloist at The

Arch Street Presbyterian Church.
This concert is a feature of the Academy's 154th Annual Exhibition - Water
Colors, Prints and Drawings, and the Philadelphia Arts Festival.
The series is made available to the public without cost through the Academy,
the Fredric R. Mann Foundation, and the Recording Industries' Trust Funds, with the
cooperation of Local 77, American Federation of Musicians.
Doors open at 7:30.

The public is invited.

The agreem.ent which took these distinguished Ameri cans to Russia was Signed by

representatives of the two governments on January 27, 1958 and provided for cultural.
exchange between the countries, calling upon each to establish contact in the excnange of
wri ters, composers, painters and sculptors, in the hope tha.t each will become more familiar
wi th the public and the cul turas of the other's country ..

International travel expenses for these artists were paid by the Department of State
of the United States.

Once in the Soviet Union they were the guests of that government.

11MI' • Watkins received hi s art eduea ti on at the Academy .

From 1942 through 1946 he

was a member of its teaching staff at intervals, but since 1948 he has been a regular member
of the faculty except when artist-in-residence during 1953-54 at the American Academy in
Rome, Gn whose Board of Trustees he also serves.

There are few major honors t hat have

passed Mr. \<TatJdns by in this country in addition to t he r..ecogni tion

he

has won abroad.

A native of New York City, he was brought up in North Carolina, educated in part in
Virginia, and finally in Philadelphia where he has lived most of his working life .

He

and Mrs. Watkins live at 20.26 Spruce Street during the winter months, and in Avalon on
the South Jersey coast, during the summer.

Academy's Alumni Opens Its Annual Exhibition
The .Annual Exhibition of the Fellowship (alumni) of The Pennsylvania Academy of the
Fine Arts, opened to the public yesterday in the Academyts galleries, to remain
through Sunday, April 12th.
It includes 232 works by 157 artists - oils, water colors, graphics, and sculpture by professional artists who, during their student days, had part or all of their art
training in the Academy's schools.

who have made important national or international reputations, has been increasing
in numbers, and the exhibitions have been growing in importance. As is customary,
the range is from the purely academic to the abstract. In the main, it is a juried
show, but a limited amount of work was invited.
The juries which chose the work include: Sam Freid, Raphael Sabatini, L. A. Do
Montgomery (for oils); Roswell Weidner, Abraham Hankins, Jane Sperry Eisenstat (for
water colors and graphics); Anita Weschler and Harry Rosin (for sculpture).

Frank T. Howard Becomes 17th President of the
Pennsylvania Academ;y
Frank T. Howard was elected the 17th President of 154-year old The Pennsylvania
Academy of the Fine Arts by its Board of Directors, at a special meeting held there

~fternoon.

He succeeds Henry S. Drinker who has been the institution's

head for the past year; and, before that,its vice-president for many years.

Mr.

Howard moves to this post from membership on the Board of Directors.

Mr. Howard is vice-president of the Provident Tradesmen's Bank and Trust Company.
Both lawyer and banker, he began his banking career as trust administrator with the
former Land Ti t~e Bank and Trust Company in 1940.

This association was temporarily

interrupted the year following, for four years, by service in the United States Naval
Reserve, where he began as a Lieutenant (J.G.) and retired as a Commander.
Returning to the :tand Title as a trust officer in 1946, he was appointed
assistant vice-president in 1951 and vice-president in 1953.

The Land Title, through

mergers, is now the Provident Tradesmen's Bank and Trust Company.

Mr. Howard's cultural interests are not limited to the Pennsylvania Academy.
is also a member of the Board of Governors of the Philadelphia Museum of Art.

He

Staffordshire pottery.
bank offices as well.

Works from these collections not only occupy his home but his
In line with his marine interests, he is an Associate of the

Peabody Museum in Massachusetts.

Mr. Howard, who is 46, graduated from St. Paul's School, class of 1930; received
his B. S. degree from Yale university in 1934; and his L. L. B. from the University of
Pennsylvania Law School in 1938.

Mr. Howard has long been active in the community life of Philadelphia, and in

Frank T. Howard - 2

Bryn Mawr where he lives.

He was co-chairman of the 102nd Anniversary Campaign for

the Academy of Music, which netted a handsome sum to carry forward the program of
improvements to the building of that venerable music institution.

On the lighter

side of music, he was co-chairman of a jazz concert for the benefit of the Bryn Mawr
Hospital.

He has also been active in fund-raising campaigns for the benefit of his

Church in Bryn Mawr.
In other fields of community service, Mr. Howard has been both chairman of
advance gifts for one of Philadelphia's United Fund Campaigns, and head of branches
for a Red Cross Campaign.

He is a Manager of the Assemblies (Philadelphia); and

sportswise, has been an active participant in tennis and sailing.

Mr. and Mrs. Howard (the for.mer Patricia T. Mercer) make their home at 500
Glenview Road in Bryn Mawr.

They have three children:

Frank, Jr., Michael and Diana.

The Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts was founded in 1805 by a group of 71
public-spirited citizens, many of whom were lawyers.

In fact, lawyers and bankers

have long been identified with it both as officers and members of its Board of
Directors.

George Clymer, its first president (1805-1813), was not only a signer

of the Declaration of Independence, but the first president of one of Philadelphia's
leading banking institutions.

Its second head, Judge Joseph Hopkinson, one of the

most active spirits in the founding of the Academy, remained in that office from
1813 until his death, in 1842.
This institution, America's oldest dedicated to the fine arts, not only presents
annually a series of exhibitions of American artists· work, but conducts one of the
great fine arts schools of the world.
