The Darby School of Art

A Forgotten Chapter in the History of American Impressionist and Modern Painting

Beschreibung

This first full-length account of the Darby School of Art overturns Philadelphiaâ s long-held unwarranted reputation as artistically stodgy - unwilling and unable to embrace Impressionism, post-Impressionist, and abstract art.

Autor

Mark W. Sullivan earned a Ph. D. in art history from Bryn Mawr College, and taught at Rutgers University and Rosemont College (PA), before landing a full-time position at Villanova University. He spent 37 years at Villanova, and was the co-founder and director of its art history program. He specializes in the history of American painting, and has written and lectured extensively on the art and architecture of the Philadelphia area. He lives in the Philadelphia suburb of Fort Washington, not far from the art school that Thomas Anshutz and Hugh Breckenridge established there after re-locating from Darby, PA.
