Opening Saturday, April 12
at the Philadelphia Museum of Art!
Throughout the 1940s, artists brought new ideas to their work across media, from fashion and textiles, craft and design, to printmaking, drawing, photography, painting, and sculpture. Boom: Art and Design of the 1940s will be a testament to the creative spirit that flourished despite the restrictions and adversity of the era. This exhibition will showcase art from across the decade, featuring works drawn entirely from the museum’s permanent collection.
Curators of Boom: Art and Design of the 1940s: Elisabeth Agro, Nancy M. McNeil Curator of Modern and Contemporary Craft and Decorative Arts; Dilys Blum, Jack M. and Annette Y. Friedland Senior Curator of Costume and Textiles; Amanda Bock, Lynne and Harold Honickman Assistant Curator of Photographs; and Jessica T. Smith, Director of Curatorial Affairs.
The exhibition runs through August, 2015.
