Fernberger Family Gallery 108
Main Building
Bowl, c. 1730, by John Hastier (American, 1691–1771). On permanent deposit from The Dietrich American Foundation Collection to the Philadelphia Museum of Art
In this small installation we explore how works of art in the museum tell the stories of enslaved and enslaving individuals. Uncovering the connections between slavery and the materials and makers of these works is a first step toward a truthful accounting of history.
