Education, that complex array of activities involved in teaching
and learning, is the theme of this year's Annual Report. More
specifically, the theme is education in the visual arts and about
the visual arts.
Institutions like the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts,
the combination of a museum that exhibits art and a school that
trains artists, are a vanishing species. There are few of us left, and
I suspect the reason why is that over time there has been a loss of
common purpose, the blurring of a common mission.
This is both unfortunate and surprising. It is unfortunate
because there is an obvious, symbiotic relationship between
making and experiencing works of art. And it is surprising because
education in and about art should be an equally obvious mission
shared by both art schools and museums.
To say that education is the primary mission of the Academy School would surprise no one
since we have been engaged in instructing some of each generation's artists since 1805. What
might come as a surprise is that education is also the primary mission of our Museum of American Art. Education is what unifies the two divisions of the Academy; it is the bond between
making and exhibiting art.
In addition to training artists, the educational outreach of the School extends far beyond
those students formally enrolled in our Certificate and M.F.A. programs. More than 1,000
people a year from the greater Philadelphia area participate in continuing education evening,
weekend, and summer programs,. all of which enhance their ability to make, to understand, and
to appreciate the visual arts.
The fact that education is the primary mission of the Academy's Museum and the principle that unifies us will not be obvious to most people. The reason for this is that there is
currently no consensus (either among museum professionals or the public at large) as to what
the role of art museums should be within our society.
In a recent address to the Smithsonian Commission on the Future, Elizabeth Broun, the
director of the National Museum of American Art, noted that as a society, "we still have not
learned how art functions best in a pluralistic democracy," nor have we worked out how "to
make art a meaningful part of American life."
If Ms. Broun's assessment is correct (and I believe that it is), then it follows that there will
be uncertainty about the mission of those institutions (museums) within our society that collect,
preserve, and exhibit works of art. And in fact there is uncertainty as is evidenced by the amount
of discussion, both formal and informal, within the profession about what the proper role of art
museums should be. Stephen E. Weil, in particular, has explored the issue thoughtfully and
provocatively in essays such as those collected under the title of Rethinking the Museum.
Weil writes that "in the current theology of American museums, to own and to care for a
collection is to fulfill what has come to be regarded as our fundamental purpose." Although he
acknowledges the prevailing orthodoxy, Weil is not comfortable with it. Nor should he be! After
all, there is a further, crucial question to be answered: for what end (or purpose) is it important
to own and care for a collection of art? Is it an end-in-itself, a self-justifying purpose? No, I think
not, because to believe so trivializes art; it treats art as precious, but not important.
There is a reason, a purpose, for museums' collecting, preserving, and exhibiting works of
art, and that reason is to educate those who visit our institutions. The results of the education
we provide (assuming that we are successful) are various: an increased appreciation of and
understanding of the aesthetic dimension of human existence in addition to the materialistic
and pragmatic dimensions; a greater knowledge of one's own as well as other cultures; and the
opportunity to experience the world within which we live from the uncommon perspective of
artistic vision.
The point is that we need not be defensive or apologetic about the fact that our museums
should be self-consciously and intentionally educational institutions as well as the repositories
of great art. The Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts is neither defensive nor apologetic,
since education is what we have been about for almost 200 years.

In classical terms humans have been "set apart from the animal
world by their unique ability to create and use tools, formulate
language and speak, and by the fact that they alone possess
a sense of self awareness. Only a human can learn, only humans
are smart. All other creatures are governed by instinct."
Or, so it used to be. Now we know that we are not the only
beings that can do any, some, most, or all these things. We now
know that parenting animals "teach" their young. That even
birds make and use tools. That dolphins and whales formulate
and use language. Finally, we now know that chimpanzees can
do them all, plus learn to communicate with us in one of our
own languages, sign!
The myth of the monolith of Arthur C. Clark's 2001: A
Space Odyssey, with the ape picking up a bone to make the first
deadly tool to become "man," has been exploded.
So, where is the dividing line?
Scientists, anthropologists, archaeologists and psychologists are all searching for the
moment and characteristic that marks the spot that defines "human." One concept that is
gaining in popularity is that only humans use their consciousness to create art! Consequently,
the magic of the monolith is not in the fact that the creature made a club. The magic, and its
proof, lies in the pictures these ancients created. Pictures of the animals, hunts and icons of the
times that this earliest "human" left on the walls of caves in Ardeche, France, tens of thousands
of years ago. According to this school of thought, it was in the creation of art that this creature
spanned the gap between being an intelligent animal and an intellectual human, separating
us from every other creature on earth.
When these early ancestors mixed soil, charcoal, and flower pollen, together with their
own saliva to make the first pigments, they began to define our difference in the world. They
literally drew the line between us and all other creatures when they took these pigments and
applied them with their palms and fingers to create these first pictures. Defining us when they
set about leaving a record of what they saw, and what they felt, so that others of their kind could
see and feel as they did. So that others-then and now-could understand them and the world
around them. In that fantastic moment art was born and recorded history dawned.
Through the ensuing ages human progress has been documented and our social advancement proclaimed through the art works that our civilizations have produced. We look at the
beauty of the treasures of King Tutankhamen in awe and wonder about the artisans and society
that created them. We marvel at the statues of ancient Greece and study them to learn about
that civilization. It was the explosion of the arts called the Renaissance that brought the European world out of the dark ages. And, it has been the hand and eye of the artist, not the
engineer, that conceived the great architecture of the ages, from China's Forbidden City, to the
Alhambra, to St. Peter's in Rome.
As strange as it may seem given this history, our society now seems to be questioning the
very value of the artistic process. Is art education really important? Is there a benefit in it for us
and our children? Is art necessary to understanding ourselves and perhaps more importantly to
understanding others? Can art, and our remarkable art history, possibly have become something
irrelevant, replaced by micro chips and high speed processors? Is a picture no longer worth a
thousand words?
If you take a good look at the curriculum in the classrooms of most American primary and
high schools today and listen to the national discussion over support for the arts, you could
well think so. It seems that somehow society is saying that art is of secondary importance and
social value. That art, the production of it, the study of it, the appreciation of it, the learning of
how to develop and read it is a luxury, not a basic ingredient in intellectual growth and cultural
development.
Two hundred years ago our government's thinking on the subject of the arts was very
different from what is being expressed in today's congressional debates. Those who founded our
Republic knew the importance of the fine arts in developing and unifying an "American
Culture." From the early 1790s when Philadelphia was the capital of the United States our
government and civic leaders sought to establish an institution of instruction and education in the fine arts that would foster an American school of expression. The result was the
formation of the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in 1805 under the direction of famed
6
portraitist, Charles Willson Peale, sculptor William Rush, and the business, government and
cultural leaders of the time.
Thomas Jefferson had supported the idea of an American School in Philadelphia from the
1790s, and as President in 1805 encouraged Peale and the others to pursue their project "for the
education and edification of their fellow Americans." Rooted in the charter of Peale's Columbianum of Fine Arts, adopted in December of 1794, and modeled after the Royal Academy in
London, the 1805 Charter of the Pennsylvania Academy defined its role as the center for the
study and development of artistic talents.
One could say that the Academy's historical educational mission is obvious because of the
School itself, and in many ways it is. The Academy is renowned for its excellence in teaching
the fine arts and for its consistent history of adhering to the classical approach of first mastering
the fundamentals of drawing. Leaming at the Academy has always meant studying the human
form and perfecting one's talents in drawing. It has meant studying under the guidance of
established artists such as Thomas Eakins, who, in the late 1800s, defined a program of arts
education that in large measure is still followed today. Although the program emphasizes the
basics, students are encouraged to experiment and grow, exploring, in the final two years of
their undergraduate studies, their own creativity under a system of faculty critics.
Today the Academy School offers a four-year Certificate program, joint Bachelor of Fine
Arts programs with the University of Pennsylvania and the University of the Arts, and a twoyear Master of Fine Arts degree. But the School's role goes beyond the formal degree and
certificate programs. Around this central core of study, the School has built an extensive series
oflearning programs and self-enrichment courses that are available to all who have an interest.
The School also undertakes special programs targeted to young people and the general
community.
For example, the Academy School is pioneering an "Advanced Placement Art Study
Program" for artistically gifted high school students. This program, currently in the pilot stage,
is modeled on the nationally recognized Advanced Placement science, English, and math
courses available in most high schools. Sponsored by a foundation grant and initiated with
three nearby parochial high schools, the program brings qualified juniors and seniors to
the Academy School for college-level instruction and class credit. The goal is to broaden the
program to other area high schools and to offer it to other college-level art schools and colleges
as a model for developing similar classes.
Individuals can come to the Academy on weekends or evenings to study and leam from a
broad offering of enrichment courses and workshop learning programs. The School offers
classes on art history and appreciation, and workshop courses where people can learn the
fundamentals of (or take advanced instruction in) drawing, painting, and sculpting. The
Academy even offers a workshop series on the art of choosing and making frames.
Though primarily focused on the technical training of American artists, the Academy saw
cultivating public knowledge through art appreciation as part of its educational mission from
the beginning. As a result, the Academy mounted public art displays and exhibitions of its
members' works.
From its earliest days the Academy acquired works by its students and teachers for use as
study materials and regularly displayed them for public enjoyment and education. On its
opening day, in its first building on the northwest corner of 11 th and Chestnut Streets, the
Academy began a history of developing loan exhibitions for public enrichment with a presentation of important European works from the Royal Academy.
The great collection of the Academy's Museum of American Art began as an inventory of
visual aids acquired to support student education. From this early 19th-century practice of
acquiring visual aids, exhibiting and purchasing student works and works of other contemporary
American artists, the collection grew and the modern concept of the Museum as we know it
evolved. Growing as the country grew, the Academy began to expand its role as a public cultural facility by displaying its increasingly important artistic record of the American experience
on a permanent exhibition basis.
When the Academy's third home, the landmark Frank Furness building, opened at Broad
and Cherry Streets in 1876, the institution had matured into a modern museum as well as
the Academy School and a complex of artist studios. The Museum's role was formalized and
dedicated "to preserve, exhibit, collect and interpret works of American art of quality, and
significance, for the education and aesthetic pleasure of the nation." Unlike art museums in
general, our Museum of American Art is confident about its purpose and its responsibility as
an educational institution. Education is an integral part of everything done by the Museum,
from the display of the collection, to the development and presentation of special exhibitions,
to community programs.

Due to a great extent to having a long history and a collection dating to the origins of
American art, the Museum is viewed by some as a conservative institution. Nothing could be
further from the truth. For most of its history the Museum has been oh the leading edge of
contemporary art and movements. In fact, a good part of the collection was acquired as contemporary pieces, many of which were purchased from emerging artists exhibiting in the
Academy's Annual Exhibition. In introducing the best of new talent in the legendary Annual
Exhibitions, the Museum was exercising a special educational role for both artists and the
public. Presented from 1805 up to the mid 1960's the Annual Exhibition became a "must" for
emerging talents and, over time, for established artists as well. The Exhibitions marked the
public introduction of many great American artists, as well as new trends and styles. Artists
such as Georgia O'Keeffe, Thomas Eakins, Alexander Calder, Andrew Wyeth, Jackson Pollock,
John Sloan, Robert Henri and famed African-American painter Horace Pippin were provided
their first major venues in the Pennsylvania Academy Annual Exhibition.
The casual visitor may not realize the fact that all of the Museum's exhibitions are built on
an educational platform. The development of special exhibitions is an important educational
component of the Museum's mission, providing an opportunity to present not only historic art
and retrospectives, but importantly to present new and emerging styles and trends in art. Over
the years the Museum has organized a number of truly landmark exhibitions that have helped
define the history of American art.
The famed 1921 show, "Exhibition of Paintings and Drawings Showing the Later Tendencies in Art," is a prime example of the Museum's role in introducing Philadelphia and the
nation to important and emerging forms of art. Though the "rage" in European circles, the
Modernist movement as epitomized by Cezanne was relatively unrecognized in American
artistic and collecting circles. This show, developed and mounted by the Academy Museum,
marked the coming of age for American modernists. Presenting 280 works by 88 artists, two of
New York's leading art critics praised it as the best exhibition of modern American art ever held.
Other examples include this past year's critically acclaimed presentation of "I Tell My Heart:
The Art of Horace Pippin" and the highly praised 1985 exhibition, "Red Grooms: A
Retrospective."
Each exhibition mounted by the Museum is surrounded by specially designed educational programs. Among other activities, they include symposia and lectures, themed tours,
workshops, family programs, and special activities for area school children. Often exhibitions
involve Museum staff members' writing and publishing special catalogues and scholarly works
on the subjects or artists being presented. Over the years scores of scholarly works on American
art and artists have been published by the Academy, carrying our educational mission into the
world of advanced study and academia.
The Museum's archives, which encompass materials dating back to the decades before the
1805 founding, are another important aspect of our educational value and importance. They
represent a rich storehouse for scholarly studies in American art by artists, students, art historians, and teachers from around the world. Specific holdings of works and personal papers
relating to individual artists such as Thomas Eakins and Robert Motherwell make the Museum
a center for the study of important American artists.
The real heart of the Museum's educational commitment lies in the community, in using
our resources to pass on an appreciation of American art and culture from generation to generation. With the fading of art programs from classrooms, the Academy is devoting more and more
of its efforts to filling this growing void for our area schools. The Museum of American Art
provides schools with lesson plans and audio and visual materials that put art appreciation back
into the curriculum. In 1995/96, through the innovative Museum Visit Program, over 30,000
area students will experience the wonders of art and learn about its importance in their lives in
the classroom and at the Museum. Underwritten for the most part by foundations and corporations, this outreach program in many cases will be a student's only exposure to the fine arts or
art history.
The Pennsylvania Academy in 1995 is essentially the same as it was in 1805, one institution dedicated to education in the American fine arts. Along with the world's other art schools
and museums, the Academy is as important to advancing and preserving our culture as
were the artistic efforts of those "first human beings" who have taught us that art speaks across
time, and for all time!

Education, that complex array of activities involved in teaching
and learning, is the theme of this year's Annual Report. More
specifically, the theme is education in the visual arts and about
the visual arts.
Institutions like the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts,
the combination of a museum that exhibits art and a school that
trains artists, are a vanishing species. There are few of us left, and
I suspect the reason why is that over time there has been a loss of
common purpose, the blurring of a common mission.
This is both unfortunate and surprising. It is unfortunate
because there is an obvious, symbiotic relationship between
making and experiencing works of art. And it is surprising because
education in and about art should be an equally obvious mission
shared by both art schools and museums.
To say that education is the primary mission of the Academy School would surprise no one
since we have been engaged in instructing some of each generation's artists since 1805. What
might come as a surprise is that education is also the primary mission of our Museum of American Art. Education is what unifies the two divisions of the Academy; it is the bond between
making and exhibiting art.
In addition to training artists, the educational outreach of the School extends far beyond
those students formally enrolled in our Certificate and M.F.A. programs. More than 1,000
people a year from the greater Philadelphia area participate in continuing education evening,
weekend, and summer programs,. all of which enhance their ability to make, to understand, and
to appreciate the visual arts.
The fact that education is the primary mission of the Academy's Museum and the principle that unifies us will not be obvious to most people. The reason for this is that there is
currently no consensus (either among museum professionals or the public at large) as to what
the role of art museums should be within our society.
In a recent address to the Smithsonian Commission on the Future, Elizabeth Broun, the
director of the National Museum of American Art, noted that as a society, "we still have not
learned how art functions best in a pluralistic democracy," nor have we worked out how "to
make art a meaningful part of American life."
If Ms. Broun's assessment is correct (and I believe that it is), then it follows that there will
be uncertainty about the mission of those institutions (museums) within our society that collect,
preserve, and exhibit works of art. And in fact there is uncertainty as is evidenced by the amount
of discussion, both formal and informal, within the profession about what the proper role of art
museums should be. Stephen E. Weil, in particular, has explored the issue thoughtfully and
provocatively in essays such as those collected under the title of Rethinking the Museum.
Weil writes that "in the current theology of American museums, to own and to care for a
collection is to fulfill what has come to be regarded as our fundamental purpose." Although he
acknowledges the prevailing orthodoxy, Weil is not comfortable with it. Nor should he be! After
all, there is a further, crucial question to be answered: for what end (or purpose) is it important
to own and care for a collection of art? Is it an end-in-itself, a self-justifying purpose? No, I think
not, because to believe so trivializes art; it treats art as precious, but not important.
There is a reason, a purpose, for museums' collecting, preserving, and exhibiting works of
art, and that reason is to educate those who visit our institutions. The results of the education
we provide (assuming that we are successful) are various: an increased appreciation of and
understanding of the aesthetic dimension of human existence in addition to the materialistic
and pragmatic dimensions; a greater knowledge of one's own as well as other cultures; and the
opportunity to experience the world within which we live from the uncommon perspective of
artistic vision.
The point is that we need not be defensive or apologetic about the fact that our museums
should be self-consciously and intentionally educational institutions as well as the repositories
of great art. The Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts is neither defensive nor apologetic,
since education is what we have been about for almost 200 years.

In classical terms humans have been "set apart from the animal
world by their unique ability to create and use tools, formulate
language and speak, and by the fact that they alone possess
a sense of self awareness. Only a human can learn, only humans
are smart. All other creatures are governed by instinct."
Or, so it used to be. Now we know that we are not the only
beings that can do any, some, most, or all these things. We now
know that parenting animals "teach" their young. That even
birds make and use tools. That dolphins and whales formulate
and use language. Finally, we now know that chimpanzees can
do them all, plus learn to communicate with us in one of our
own languages, sign!
The myth of the monolith of Arthur C. Clark's 2001: A
Space Odyssey, with the ape picking up a bone to make the first
deadly tool to become "man," has been exploded.
So, where is the dividing line?
Scientists, anthropologists, archaeologists and psychologists are all searching for the
moment and characteristic that marks the spot that defines "human." One concept that is
gaining in popularity is that only humans use their consciousness to create art! Consequently,
the magic of the monolith is not in the fact that the creature made a club. The magic, and its
proof, lies in the pictures these ancients created. Pictures of the animals, hunts and icons of the
times that this earliest "human" left on the walls of caves in Ardeche, France, tens of thousands
of years ago. According to this school of thought, it was in the creation of art that this creature
spanned the gap between being an intelligent animal and an intellectual human, separating
us from every other creature on earth.
When these early ancestors mixed soil, charcoal, and flower pollen, together with their
own saliva to make the first pigments, they began to define our difference in the world. They
literally drew the line between us and all other creatures when they took these pigments and
applied them with their palms and fingers to create these first pictures. Defining us when they
set about leaving a record of what they saw, and what they felt, so that others of their kind could
see and feel as they did. So that others-then and now-could understand them and the world
around them. In that fantastic moment art was born and recorded history dawned.
Through the ensuing ages human progress has been documented and our social advancement proclaimed through the art works that our civilizations have produced. We look at the
beauty of the treasures of King Tutankhamen in awe and wonder about the artisans and society
that created them. We marvel at the statues of ancient Greece and study them to learn about
that civilization. It was the explosion of the arts called the Renaissance that brought the European world out of the dark ages. And, it has been the hand and eye of the artist, not the
engineer, that conceived the great architecture of the ages, from China's Forbidden City, to the
Alhambra, to St. Peter's in Rome.
As strange as it may seem given this history, our society now seems to be questioning the
very value of the artistic process. Is art education really important? Is there a benefit in it for us
and our children? Is art necessary to understanding ourselves and perhaps more importantly to
understanding others? Can art, and our remarkable art history, possibly have become something
irrelevant, replaced by micro chips and high speed processors? Is a picture no longer worth a
thousand words?
If you take a good look at the curriculum in the classrooms of most American primary and
high schools today and listen to the national discussion over support for the arts, you could
well think so. It seems that somehow society is saying that art is of secondary importance and
social value. That art, the production of it, the study of it, the appreciation of it, the learning of
how to develop and read it is a luxury, not a basic ingredient in intellectual growth and cultural
development.
Two hundred years ago our government's thinking on the subject of the arts was very
different from what is being expressed in today's congressional debates. Those who founded our
Republic knew the importance of the fine arts in developing and unifying an "American
Culture." From the early 1790s when Philadelphia was the capital of the United States our
government and civic leaders sought to establish an institution of instruction and education in the fine arts that would foster an American school of expression. The result was the
formation of the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in 1805 under the direction of famed
6
portraitist, Charles Willson Peale, sculptor William Rush, and the business, government and
cultural leaders of the time.
Thomas Jefferson had supported the idea of an American School in Philadelphia from the
1790s, and as President in 1805 encouraged Peale and the others to pursue their project "for the
education and edification of their fellow Americans." Rooted in the charter of Peale's Columbianum of Fine Arts, adopted in December of 1794, and modeled after the Royal Academy in
London, the 1805 Charter of the Pennsylvania Academy defined its role as the center for the
study and development of artistic talents.
One could say that the Academy's historical educational mission is obvious because of the
School itself, and in many ways it is. The Academy is renowned for its excellence in teaching
the fine arts and for its consistent history of adhering to the classical approach of first mastering
the fundamentals of drawing. Leaming at the Academy has always meant studying the human
form and perfecting one's talents in drawing. It has meant studying under the guidance of
established artists such as Thomas Eakins, who, in the late 1800s, defined a program of arts
education that in large measure is still followed today. Although the program emphasizes the
basics, students are encouraged to experiment and grow, exploring, in the final two years of
their undergraduate studies, their own creativity under a system of faculty critics.
Today the Academy School offers a four-year Certificate program, joint Bachelor of Fine
Arts programs with the University of Pennsylvania and the University of the Arts, and a twoyear Master of Fine Arts degree. But the School's role goes beyond the formal degree and
certificate programs. Around this central core of study, the School has built an extensive series
oflearning programs and self-enrichment courses that are available to all who have an interest.
The School also undertakes special programs targeted to young people and the general
community.
For example, the Academy School is pioneering an "Advanced Placement Art Study
Program" for artistically gifted high school students. This program, currently in the pilot stage,
is modeled on the nationally recognized Advanced Placement science, English, and math
courses available in most high schools. Sponsored by a foundation grant and initiated with
three nearby parochial high schools, the program brings qualified juniors and seniors to
the Academy School for college-level instruction and class credit. The goal is to broaden the
program to other area high schools and to offer it to other college-level art schools and colleges
as a model for developing similar classes.
Individuals can come to the Academy on weekends or evenings to study and leam from a
broad offering of enrichment courses and workshop learning programs. The School offers
classes on art history and appreciation, and workshop courses where people can learn the
fundamentals of (or take advanced instruction in) drawing, painting, and sculpting. The
Academy even offers a workshop series on the art of choosing and making frames.
Though primarily focused on the technical training of American artists, the Academy saw
cultivating public knowledge through art appreciation as part of its educational mission from
the beginning. As a result, the Academy mounted public art displays and exhibitions of its
members' works.
From its earliest days the Academy acquired works by its students and teachers for use as
study materials and regularly displayed them for public enjoyment and education. On its
opening day, in its first building on the northwest corner of 11 th and Chestnut Streets, the
Academy began a history of developing loan exhibitions for public enrichment with a presentation of important European works from the Royal Academy.
The great collection of the Academy's Museum of American Art began as an inventory of
visual aids acquired to support student education. From this early 19th-century practice of
acquiring visual aids, exhibiting and purchasing student works and works of other contemporary
American artists, the collection grew and the modern concept of the Museum as we know it
evolved. Growing as the country grew, the Academy began to expand its role as a public cultural facility by displaying its increasingly important artistic record of the American experience
on a permanent exhibition basis.
When the Academy's third home, the landmark Frank Furness building, opened at Broad
and Cherry Streets in 1876, the institution had matured into a modern museum as well as
the Academy School and a complex of artist studios. The Museum's role was formalized and
dedicated "to preserve, exhibit, collect and interpret works of American art of quality, and
significance, for the education and aesthetic pleasure of the nation." Unlike art museums in
general, our Museum of American Art is confident about its purpose and its responsibility as
an educational institution. Education is an integral part of everything done by the Museum,
from the display of the collection, to the development and presentation of special exhibitions,
to community programs.

Due to a great extent to having a long history and a collection dating to the origins of
American art, the Museum is viewed by some as a conservative institution. Nothing could be
further from the truth. For most of its history the Museum has been oh the leading edge of
contemporary art and movements. In fact, a good part of the collection was acquired as contemporary pieces, many of which were purchased from emerging artists exhibiting in the
Academy's Annual Exhibition. In introducing the best of new talent in the legendary Annual
Exhibitions, the Museum was exercising a special educational role for both artists and the
public. Presented from 1805 up to the mid 1960's the Annual Exhibition became a "must" for
emerging talents and, over time, for established artists as well. The Exhibitions marked the
public introduction of many great American artists, as well as new trends and styles. Artists
such as Georgia O'Keeffe, Thomas Eakins, Alexander Calder, Andrew Wyeth, Jackson Pollock,
John Sloan, Robert Henri and famed African-American painter Horace Pippin were provided
their first major venues in the Pennsylvania Academy Annual Exhibition.
The casual visitor may not realize the fact that all of the Museum's exhibitions are built on
an educational platform. The development of special exhibitions is an important educational
component of the Museum's mission, providing an opportunity to present not only historic art
and retrospectives, but importantly to present new and emerging styles and trends in art. Over
the years the Museum has organized a number of truly landmark exhibitions that have helped
define the history of American art.
The famed 1921 show, "Exhibition of Paintings and Drawings Showing the Later Tendencies in Art," is a prime example of the Museum's role in introducing Philadelphia and the
nation to important and emerging forms of art. Though the "rage" in European circles, the
Modernist movement as epitomized by Cezanne was relatively unrecognized in American
artistic and collecting circles. This show, developed and mounted by the Academy Museum,
marked the coming of age for American modernists. Presenting 280 works by 88 artists, two of
New York's leading art critics praised it as the best exhibition of modern American art ever held.
Other examples include this past year's critically acclaimed presentation of "I Tell My Heart:
The Art of Horace Pippin" and the highly praised 1985 exhibition, "Red Grooms: A
Retrospective."
Each exhibition mounted by the Museum is surrounded by specially designed educational programs. Among other activities, they include symposia and lectures, themed tours,
workshops, family programs, and special activities for area school children. Often exhibitions
involve Museum staff members' writing and publishing special catalogues and scholarly works
on the subjects or artists being presented. Over the years scores of scholarly works on American
art and artists have been published by the Academy, carrying our educational mission into the
world of advanced study and academia.
The Museum's archives, which encompass materials dating back to the decades before the
1805 founding, are another important aspect of our educational value and importance. They
represent a rich storehouse for scholarly studies in American art by artists, students, art historians, and teachers from around the world. Specific holdings of works and personal papers
relating to individual artists such as Thomas Eakins and Robert Motherwell make the Museum
a center for the study of important American artists.
The real heart of the Museum's educational commitment lies in the community, in using
our resources to pass on an appreciation of American art and culture from generation to generation. With the fading of art programs from classrooms, the Academy is devoting more and more
of its efforts to filling this growing void for our area schools. The Museum of American Art
provides schools with lesson plans and audio and visual materials that put art appreciation back
into the curriculum. In 1995/96, through the innovative Museum Visit Program, over 30,000
area students will experience the wonders of art and learn about its importance in their lives in
the classroom and at the Museum. Underwritten for the most part by foundations and corporations, this outreach program in many cases will be a student's only exposure to the fine arts or
art history.
The Pennsylvania Academy in 1995 is essentially the same as it was in 1805, one institution dedicated to education in the American fine arts. Along with the world's other art schools
and museums, the Academy is as important to advancing and preserving our culture as
were the artistic efforts of those "first human beings" who have taught us that art speaks across
time, and for all time!
