Henry Ossawa Tanner: Modern Spirit
Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts (PAFA)Through
Art Parkway District
This major exhibition of African-American artist Henry Ossawa Tanner is quintessentially PAFA and celebrates a key figure in Philadelphia's art history. Modern Spirit contains over 100 works, including 12 paintings that have never been shown in a Tanner retrospective and the only two known sculptures that Tanner completed. The exhibition also includes Tanner's famed Resurrection of Lazarus, from the collection of the Musée d'Orsay, a career-making canvas that earned Tanner his first international praise when it was exhibited in 1897 and which has never crossed the Atlantic.
