Outreach. With posters, 1990

Henery Ossawa Tanner was the foremost African-American artist working at the turn of the twentieth century. Tanner was raised in Philadelphia and attended school at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts but later emigrated to France where he spent the majority of his career. Darrel Sewell, the Robert L. McNeil, Jr. Curator of American Art, collaborated to present this restrospective, which later traveled to Atlanta, Detroit, and San Francisco.
