The Detroit Institute of Art organized a stunning Diego Rivera retrospective in honor of the 100th anniversary of his birthday, and the Philadelphia Museum of Art hosted the only east coast stop on the exhibition's international tour. Rivera, an artist from Mexico made famous as a leader of the Mexican mural renaissance, was active internationally throughout the early decades of the 20th century. Darrel Sewell, Curator of American Art, installed 100 paintings; 140 drawings, watercolors, and illustrations, and several photographs of the artist himself. In Philadelphia, the exhibition was supported by The Pew Memorial Trust and the Women's Committee of the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
