"Mad for Modernism: Earl Horter and His Collection." March 7-May 16, 1999, 1993-2000

The Philadelphia artist Earl Horter was at the center of the city's modernist movement. In addition to being a practicing artist, Horter also collected the works of his European contemporaries. Innis Howe Shoemaker selected some 50 paintings, sculptures, drawings and prints by the seminal European figures in early modern art along with a group of 20 African sculptures and Native American artifacts that represent important components of Horter's collection.
