Inside A Nation of Artists, Philly’s New Must-See Exhibition

The Philadelphia Museum of Art (PMA) and the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts (PAFA) have launched "A Nation of Artists," a massive dual-museum exhibition running through late 2027. The show features over 1,000 works, including the public debut of 120 pieces from the private Middleton Family Collection, owned by Philadelphia Phillies owner John Middleton. While the PMA presents the works chronologically from 1700 to 1960, PAFA offers a thematic exploration, both aiming to integrate underrepresented Black, Indigenous, and immigrant artists alongside canonical figures like Georgia O’Keeffe and Jackson Pollock.
